800 WOMEN NEEDED

Commander Evangeline Booth, lea17

1.-The Salvation Army was born in
hardship, reared in %privation and

that accounts in some degree for tina
success our work has attained and for
which we are thankful. !
I'VE are of the common people, and

ENORMOUS SHIPMENTS WIPED
OUT EXCESS STOCKS

On October 1st we had on hand at
the factory and in twenty warehouses
over the country a tremendous stock
of VapoRub, accumulated during the
summer months. This is now gone
we actually shipped during the month
Of October over three million jars of
VapoRui. We r speeding up our
factory as muck as possible and the
problem now is to distribute the fac
tory's output as quickly IS possible.
We have, therefore, for the time be-
ing, abandoned freight shipments and
are shipping either by parcel post or
express-tTying to give each iobber
at least a little stock.

The United War Work campaign
had its first important rally in Gre
NADIA on Thursday night Of last week
at the opera house. Quite q repre-
sentative audience gathered for the
occasion. DR.. Phillip Davidson OF
Greenville was the principal speak
er. Judge ]. @. Robins of Tupelo
was present and was called on for
the first talk.
What the Judge said was highly
interesting. He has shown in un-
mistakeable ways that he is behind
the war and that he is ready to &C
quiesce in all plans for the prosecu-
ton of the same. He made an ear
nest plea for the United War Work
Campaign.
DR.. Davidson followed Judge
Robins. DR.. Davidson is the rector
of the Episcopal Church in the city
of Greenville, and in the early days
after the entrance of the United
States into the war, he was given
leave of absence by his church and
went overseas as a Y. NJ. G. A
representative. He is a scholarly
man and is held in high esteem by
the people of his community.
DR.. Davidson made little attempt
at speech making but talked most IN

teestingly Of his overseas experience
and Of the work the Y. N. G. A.
and other kindred agencies are do
ing over there, His tribute to the
valor and bravery Of the American
boys was just what n might have
expected from one who knew "our
boys and what they had done to the
Germans. The Doctor spent q great
deal of the time in the trenches and
right up near to where the boys were
in action. All he said left no
doubt in the mind Of the listener as
to what he thought Grenada county
should do for the seven agencies now
asking funds in this great drive. I'm
doubtedly he left the impression that
the army would be greatly demon
allied and that for America not to
provide funds to continue these activ-
tiles would be like turning the boys
loose in a big city where vice was ram
pant and where there were no
churches or other organizations to
keep men reminded of their religious
duty.

IMMEDIATE SHIPMENTS TO

Preference is being given to those
sections stricken by influenza. In
order to reach these sections as quick
ly as can be, we are, during this emer-
gency, making shipment by parcel
post, direct, to the retail trade, of not
more than three (3l dozen 30c size

the jobbers order these shipments for
their trade, but to save time, we will,
if the need is urgent, ship direct on
receipt of check or money order. Nat
urally, no new accounts can be OPEN

Bseth Tarkington Also Says Seidisrs
Will Push "Stay.as-Hemers" Out Of

~
When the soldiers of the A. +. F..
retun to America the country will be
tAeirs-they will take it and run it.,
while the "stay-athomers" will take a
baclA seat.
That is the substance of the mes
sage sent to the troops by Booth Tar
Engton, the novelist. His letter, in
part is as follows:
81 feel a considerable dihidence in
addressing, through the Y. N. c. A.,
a word to the boys that are doing the
8shting that risks. Our work at
home is a kind Of fighting, but it's
the safe kind. No matter what the
q of its being safe-age, disable
ity, or some special usefulness at
hcme-those of us who remain in Sc
curly, while other men are fighting,
q not help but feel a certain inferl-
ority. Therefore, we home-stayers
must be d~eferential. We are ike
the old medicine men Of the tribe who
st mumbling around the camp hre
with the sGuaws, while the young men
are on the war path. When the
veung men come back to this country
us out of the way-and they ought
70. The squaws will do some of
>hot pushinp tOoO
"For, be assured that when the
xoung men come back this county
will be theirs, and they will know 1t,
and they will take it and run it. More
v they will run it in a better fash
ion than we have of this now-passing
generation. And the country Will be
safer in their hands than in the hands
Of those that never fought for 1t.
"One thing of which the soldiers
abroad can be certain, is that things
are not going on as usual back home
Nothing is really the same, or any
thing like the same, with all the young
men away. The girls drift out
walking or stroll up town, with other
girls-and they don't laugh a whole
lot, or look as jolly as they used to
and, in fact everybody in turn has
Kind of absent minded look.
"Oh, you bet your life they are
nroud Of you. you soldier mel in Eu
rope, and they're "tickled to death"
over al the things you are Going-anC
they hear about all these things o.
course-but don't you ever put in

"Whatever else the folks back hom'
are doing, no matter how busy ovel
something or other they may seepa
yeu can absolutely hank on it, they're
thinking of you, yes, evey minute o
the live,ong day. Not only You
own folks, or your " girl, or you
own wife, but your uncle and you
cousins, and your old neighbor tina
hasn't any children of his own, and 81
hasn't got any boy in the army
you'd be surpried to know how con
stantly that old fellows thinks o
you! And so does that girl in tn

when you passed. cat knew yo'

HOW 10 USE VICK'S EAPORUB
AS A PREVENTIVE

Ii is questionable if there is any
thing that will prevent Spanish IN
fiuenza, except by avoiding those per-
SONS who are spreading the disease
by coughing, sneezing and splitting,
and by lseeping up the bodily resist
ancc by plenty of good food and ex-
ercise in the open air. The Public
Health Service recommends that the
nasal passages be coated with a weak
solution of Menthol in liquid petro-
leun as a protective. For this pur-

put a small portion up each nostril
from time to time during the day and
snuff well back into the head.

HEALTH TALK
Spanish Influenza or Grip
BY DIR. LEE 81. SMITH.

An old enemy is with IN again, and
whether we fight a German or a germ, we
must put up a good fight, and not be afraid.
The influenza runs a very brief course
when the patient is careful, and if we keep
the system in good condition and throw
off the poisons which tend to accumulate
within our bodies, we can escape the dis.
ease. Remember these three C's-a clean
mouth, a clean skin, and clean bowels.
10 carry of poisons from the system and
keep the bowels loose, daily doses of a
pleasant laxative should be taken. Such
a one is made of May-apple, leaves of aloe,
root of jalap, and called DR.. Pierce's Pleas.
ant Pellets. Hot lemonade should be used
freely if attacked 6y a cold, and the pa.
tient should be put to bed after a hot
mustard foot-bath.
To prevent the attack of bronchitis or
pneumonia aud to control the pain,
Anuric tablets should be obtained at the
drug store, and one given every two hours,
with lemonade. The Anuric tablets
were first discovered by DR.. Pierce, and.
as they flush the bladder and cleanse the
kidneys, they carry away much of the poi.
sons and the uric acid.
1t is important that broths, milk, but
termilk, ice-cream and simple diet be given
regularly to strengthen the system and in.
crease the vital resistance. The fever Is
diminished by the u.s. of the Anuric tab
let's, but in addition, the forehead, arms
and hands may be bathed with water
(tepid) in which a tablespoonful of sal.
aratus has been dissolved in a quart. After
an attack of grip or pneumonia to
build up and strengthen the system, obtain
at the drug store a good iron tonic, called
"Irontic" Tablets, or that we'll known
herbal tonic, DIR. Picrce's Golden Medical
Discovery.
