Would Restrict Efforts
of EDO Goods"

William Allen White, who has
spent some Tina abroad, feels that
"the swarms of Do Goods who are
coming to France on trivial or i'm
possible mission should be re-
stricted.
Every soldier letter." he says,
comes to America full of praise
for the work of the Red Cross, the
Y. M. c. A., the war organizations
of the Knights of Columbus and the
Jewish peoples. but it stops right
there. And the letters are full of
resentment for the hordes of evan
gelists, petty religious organization
representatives, congressman, col
lege professors doing research
work, women representatives of al
legged relief societies, who go to
France and get in the way.
Such monkey business should be
stopped. The Red Cross, the Y.
NJ. c. A. and kindred religious
organizations, which are national in
their scope. should be in complete
charge of war work If there is
any investigating to be done, Off
Gals of these organizations should
make the Investigations. But pussy
footers seeking to determine the
percentage of the men in khaki who
believe in predestination of INNER
sion, morbid old sisters who want
to tell the art club the morbid things
they saw at the front-the front
for these persons usually being
Paris-should be left on this side
of the water.
Having to live in a trench and
fight boches is job enough. LETS
keep the Do Good at home OF else

Influenza Epidemic Is Decreasing in Most Sections and
the Demand Is Slackening but We Are Still $4,000
h Gross Behind on Orders and 1t Will Take Some Time
to Catch Up.
3 MILLION JARS SHIPPED DURING OCTOBER

On Monday, October Fl, we adj
dressed an advertisement to the
wholesale and retail drug trade, adj
|vising that we were badly oversold,
due to the influenza epidemic, stat
ING that all deals and quantity ship
ments were postponed, and request
ing that VapoRub be'purchased IN
small lots only. This condition still
prevails. ..~r<
At this writing we have back or
ders for eighteen thousand (1S,OO0)
gross and our orders each day are
double our daily output. The cpl
demic, however, is decreasing in
most sections, the demand is slack
|ening and we are working night and
day to catch up. In the meantime,
I've ask the trade to be patient with
|us. =
ENORMOUS SHIPMENTS HAVE
WIPED OUT EXCESS STOCKS.
On October 1st we had on hand
|at the factory and in twenty ware
houses over the country tremen-
|dous stock of VapoRub, accumu-
lated during the summer months.
This is now gone-we actually
shipped during the month of Octo-
her over three million jars of Vapo-
Rub. We are speeding up our fac
tory as much as possible and the
problem now is to distribute the
|factory's output as quickly as pos
|sible. We have, therefore, for the
time being, abandoned freight ship
|ments and are shipping either by
Parcel Post or express-trying to
give each jobber at least a little
stock.

Many women are employed about
the airship factories in France.
They are hoisted in boatswain's'
chairs and work on big fabric en-
velopes for the aircraft.
Nearly one-third of all the street
railway conductors in New York

CHAPTER vi.
The Flying Elopement.
EGGY made herself small and
went flying to the ground to
meet Dancing Damsel Billy
Belgium was in such a hurry that
he slid down the rope right after
her.
The Damsel reached the ground
just before Gold Teeth came rush
ing from the house. She darted
into the shrubbery of the garden,
and was out of sight when Gold
Teeth reached the bottom of the
rope and looked up.
Billy was, of course, invisible, and
Gold Teeth didn't see him. Neither
did Billy see Gold Teeth until ali
of sudden he landed right on Gold
Teeth's head. The astonished old
man was sent sprawling into a
thorny rosebush, while Billy, no less
surprised, picked himself up and
ran after the Damsel. 8
Bald Pate, coming from the
house, saw his stepdaughter run
ming through the brushes toward
the garden wall. He took after her
at full speed. Gold Teeth, scratch
ed and angry, untangled himself
from the rosebush thorns and join
ed in the chase.
The Dancing Damsel was ham,
pered by her wedding fnery and
could not run very fast. There
fore, the two men gained rapidly
on her and were close behind when
she reached the garden walt
The wall was of stone and was
very high. Peggy, who had made
herself large again and was racing
along after them, could not see how
the fleeing girl could possibly climb
it. At one corner of the garden,
however, was a grapevine trellis,
and it was toward this that the
Damsel was making. But Bald
Pate and Gold Teeth were only a
few steps away. They would grab
her the instant she started to climb.
Gold Teeth's coat tails were stick
ing right out behind as he ran.
Peggy seized them and pulled with
all her weight. The jar stopped

HOW TO USE VAPORUB IN
TREATING SPANISH
INFLUENZA.

HOW TO USE VAPORUB IN
TREATING SPANISH
INFLUENZA.
In every case call physician
VapoRub should be used only in
connection with the physicians in
ternal treatment.
Apply hot, wet cloths over the
throat, chest and back between the
shoulder blades to open the pores.
Dry lightly and rub VapoRub we'll
in until the skin in red-spread on
thickly and cover with hot flannel
cloths. Leave the bed-covering
loose around the neck, as the body
heat releases the ingredients in the
form of vapors. These vapors, in
hailed with each breath, stimulate
the lining of the air passages to
throw off the influenza germs. In
case of head or chest cold, which
often accompanies influenza, the
vapors tend to keep the air passages
open, loosen the phlegm and make
the breathing easier. In addition,
VapoRub is absorbed through and
stimulates the skin, attracting the
blood to the surface, and thus aids
in relieving the congestion within.
HOW TO USE VICK's VAPORUB
AS A PREVENTIVE.
1t is questionable if there is any
thing which will prevent Spanish In
fluenza, except avoiding those per-
sons who are spreading the disease
by coughing, sneezing and splitting,
and by keeping up the bodily resist
ance by plenty of good food and ex-
ercise in the open air. The Public
Health Service recommends that the
nasal passages be coated with
weak solution of Menthol in liquid
petroleum as protective. For this
purpose VapoRub is excellent. Just
put a, small portion up each nostril
from time to time during the day
and snuff well back into the head.
KEEP FREE FROM COLDS BY
INHALING VAPORUB.
Colds irritate the lining of the air
passages and thus render them a
much better breeding place for the
germs. At the first signs of a cold
use VapoRub at once Melt little
in spoon and inhale the vapors
arising, or VapoRub can be used in
regular benzoin steam kettle, such
as most druggists carry in stock. If
this is not available, a very good
substitute to use, is an ordinary tea
kettle. Fill half-full of boiling wa
ter-put in half a teaspoon of Vapo-
Rub from time to time-keep the
kettle just slowly boiling and inhale
the steam arising.
