New Vapor Way
Of Treating all
Cold Troubles
North Carolina Druggist En-
vents q Salve That In
vaporized by the ~
Body Heat ;MH
NOTHING TO SWALLOW
YOU JUST RUB 1T ON
Particularly Valuable to Mothers
with Small Children. Local
Druggists Are Offering 25O Jars
ON 80 Days Trial.

Colds are simply infammations Of
the air passages and everybody knows
that the only way to reach the air
passages direct is by means OF Napors
that can be inhaled The old.fash-
Toned vapor treatments however, were
cumbersome and costly, but a North
Carolina druggist solved this problem
by lnventing a salve that ls vapor-
lied by the body heat
This preparation, known az VIck's
VapoRub, is now being introduced
here. Tho local druggists know the
danger Of constant dosing" especially
to small children and are anxious
that nil their customers should try
this new Outside" treatment Ar
rangements have accordingly been
made with tho manufacturers 10 sell
the small size Jars, price 25c, on 30
days trinl-no charge TO BIO made II
the customer ia not delighted with
the results.
For deep chest colds, sore throat,
bronchitis, tonsllitls, or lnclplent pneu-
monia YapoRub should be applied over
the throat and chest and covered with
q warm flannel cloth. The vapors
arising carry the medication, with
each breath, TO tho air passages and
lungs. In addition VapoRub Is alb
gorbed through and stimulates the
skin taking out that tghtness and
soreness in tho chest
For head colds, hay fever, catarrh
or asthmatlc troubles VapoRub can
either be applied up the nostrils or
little melted in a spoon and the vapors
inhaled. Group is usually relieved
within fifteen minutes and one appll.

GREATER SCHOOL
SPACE IS NEEDED
IN CAPITOL HILL
Both Lee and Wheeler Build
ingS Badly Crowded,

Capitol Hill schools may he among
those to benefit, il the proposed bond
issue, recommended by the Real Estate
board and Lions club to the board of
education is fayorably acted upon
Both the Lee and the Wheeler schools
have more pupils that they can accom-
modatc and there is urgent need Of bet
ter accommodation for the children of
Capitol Hill.
Many Pupils In Annexes.
In the Lee school, $50 pupils and
fourteen teachers are cared for in the
main building and $50 pupils and seven
teachers use the small frame buildings
near the main school Among the annex
buildings is the little pioneer school
house, since added to, that was the first
one opened in Capitol Hill, eighteen
years ago.
The Wheeler school is not so crowded
as the Lee building, but there is need
of considerably more space. At the
time the schools were finished it was
thought that there was ample accom-
modation for the children of the dis
trict for fifteen or twenty years to
come, but the attendance has increased
so rapidly that now at the end of seven
years additional rooms and equipment
are badly needed.

Reconstruction and Destruction

ton Of the word Liberty" Germany
has spread and is spreading "anar-
chy" everywhere, 1t is now up to
the sane part OF humanity TO cleanse
the world OF that pestilence made
in Germany"
And as the suppression OF all evil
must begin where evil is fostering
thickest, it is in Russia that this
cleasing must begin-for it IS in
Russia that Germany inoculated hrst
and most successfully the germ oil
bolsheyism-the germ OF disso!u-
ton.
Therefore, every sane American,
standing watch against the German
pestilcnce" at home, must contribute
to It's elimination in Russia, Tor
when Russia shall be cleansed oil
bolsheyism, then it will cease to
spread elsewhere. The democracy
will be made safe for the world and

Before the work OF reconstruction
can be effectively accomplished, the
sources of destruction must be dis
posed OF.
These sources OF destruction have
tesided not only in German mill

with liquid fire and poisoned gas

POLITICAL OBSERVATIONS

How it all happened" has been
fruitful topic OF discussion in lw'
litical circlss ever since the election
Nov ), and the politicians OF all par
ties agree that rhcre was a variety
OF causes that contributed to the de-
feat OF the Democrats, among the
more important OF which were
these: President Wilson's appeal
ior a Democratic congress which
aroused the Republicans from a
state OF lethargy to one OF intense
activity; the veto OF the bill raising
the price OF wheat to S2,40 bushel,
which the farmers resented; the re-
fusal OF congress TO abrogate the
seniority rule under which commit
tees are appointed; the opposition
OF the pro-Germans and paciiists;
overconhdence OF the Democrats.
