SPANISH INnU6NzA- WHAT It IS
AND HOW It SHOULD Be TREATED
Nothing News Simply the Old Grip or La Grippe That
Was Epidemic in l8S9.90 Only Then Il Came
From Russia by Way Of France and
This Time by Way Of Spain
EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS

In order to stimulate the lining OF
the air passages to throw of the grippe
germs, to aid In loOsening the phlegm
and keeping the air passages open. thus
h,aking the breathing easier. Vick's
vapORub will be found effective. Hot.
wet towels should be applied over the
throat, chest and back between the
shoulder blades to open the pores.
Then vapoRub should be rubbed In
over the parts until the skin Is red,
spread on thickly and cover with two
thicknesses of hot flannel cloths. Leave
the clothing loose around the neck, as
the heat of the body lberates the in
gradients In the form Of vapors.
These vapors, inhaled with each breath.
carry the medication directly to the
parts affected. At the same time
VapoRub II absorbed through and
stimulates the skin, attracting the
blood to the surface, and thus aids
in relieving the congestion within.
HOW TO AVOID THE DISEASE
Evidence seems to prove that this IL
germ disease, spread principally
by human contact. chiefly through
coughing, sneezing or splitting. SO
avoid persons having colds-which
means avoiding crowds-common
drinking cups, roller towels, etc. Keep
up your bodily strength by plenty OF
exercise In the open air, and good food.
Above all, avoid colds, as colds irri.
tate the lining Of the air passages ana
render them much better breeding
places for the germs.
KEEP FREE FROM COLDS
Use vick's vapoRub at the very first
sign of cold. For head cold, melt a
little VapoRub In q spoon and inhale
the vapOrs, or better still, use VapO-
Rub in q benzoin steam kettle. If this
is not available, use an ordinary tea
kettle. Fill half-full of boiling wa
ter, put in half teaspoon Of VapORub
from time to time-keep the kettle
Just slowly boiling and inhale the
steam arising.
Note-vick's vapoRub is the dis
covery Of a North Carolina druggist,
who found how to combine. in salve
form, Menthol and Camphor with such
volatile oils as Eucalyptus, Thyme, Gu
bebs, ETC., so that when tn, salve is ap'
piled to the body heat, these ingredi'
ents are liberated in the form OF va
pors.
i vapoRub is comparatively new in
New York State and New England and
a few Western states where 1t is just
now being introduced, but i'm other sec
lions of the country 1t Is the standard
home remedy In more than million
homes for all forms Of cold troubles
Over six million Jars were sold last
year. vapoRub can be had in three
sizes at all druggists. 1t is particular
lly recommended for children's crouI
and colds, since it is externally applied
and therefore can be used as freely al
desired without the slightest harmful
effects.

Foch and His Military Policies.

In a sketch of General FOch in a

Of the generalissimO of the allied

briefly of General FOch's early years
Of education spent in the period just
following the FrancO-Prussian war,
when France, realizing the defects In
her conduct of the war and the rea-
sons for her defeat at the hands Of a
foe no better in fighting qualities or
resources than herself, set to work to
study the cause for the breaking down
of her army. His ideas were nodded
during this formative period and later
when he was on the teaching staff of
the EcOle de Guerre, General FOch be-
came a leader in evolving the present
French doctrine of adopting the often

NO OCCASION FOR PANIC

NO OCCASION FOR PANIC
Spanish influenza, which appeared In
Spain in May, has all the appearances
of grip, or la grippe, which has swept
over the world in numerous epidemics
as far back as history runs. Hippoc.
rates refers to an epidemic In AZ
B. c., which is regarded by many to
have been influenza. Every century
has had its attacks. Beginning with
1881 this country has had i've epidem-
les, the last in 18S9-9O.
There Is no occasion for panic-lnhu-
enza itself has very low percentage
of fatalities-not over one death out
of every 400 cases, according to the
N. G. board Of health. The chief danger
lies in complications arising, attack
ing principally patients in a rundown
condition-those who don't 60 to Deo
soon enough or those who get up toe
early.
THE SYMPTOMS
Grip, or influenza, as 1t is now called
usually begins with chill, followed BY
aching, feverishness, and sometimes
nausea and dizziness, and a general
feeling Of weakness and depression
The temperature is from 100 to 1O4
and the fever usually lasts from three
to five days. The germs attack the
mucous membrane or lining Of the all
passages, nose, throat and bronchial
tubes; there is usually a hard cough
especially bad at night; oftentimes
sore throat or tonsillitis, and frequent!
all the appearances Of a severe heat
cold.
THE TREATMENT
Go to bed at the first symptoms, no
only for your own sake, but to av0i'
spreading the disease to others-tak
a purgative, eat plenty Of nOurishinl
food, remain perfectly quiet and don
worry. Quinine, aspirin or Dover
Powders, etc, may be administered b,
the physicians directions to relieve tn
aching. But there is no cure or spe
cific for influenza-the disease mus
run its course. Nature herself VII
throw off the attack IL only you keeI
up your strength. The chief DANCE
| lies In the complications which ma
| arise. Influenza so weakens the bodil
resistance that there Is danger OF pner
nonia or bronchitis developing. an
sometimes Inflammation of the middl
ear, or heart affections. For these rea
sons It is very important that tn
patient remain In bed until his strengt
returnsAstay in bed at least two day
or more after the fever has left you. Q
If you are over so or not strong sta
in bed four days or more. according {
the severity Of the attack.

weary cabbages, tired tomatoes and

present us with as mementoes.
So much to show our qualifications
now we will proceed to write up this
party.
We were not in it but gallimanted
around the outskirts with accent on
the skirts. Mrs. Compton, ably as
sisted by Mrs. Jameson corralled
about twenty-five potatoes around
her festive board. Sank Centre never
presented such a favorable oppor-
tunity for the operations of first
class potato masher, but potato mash
ers were excluded by the argus eyed
potato peelers who had the affair
in charge.
If these potatoes could have been
sold for the benefit of the Red Cross
at least twenty-five million dollars
could have been realized. A young
gentleman Of this city informed US
that he considered one Of the smallest
of the spuds worth at least a million
dollars of any maAs money and a,
that rate there was twenty-five million
dollars worth Of tubers surrounding
the table if disposed at private sale.
Probably they would have brought
more at pubic auction.
There were large, medium sized and
small potatoes, Peach Blows, Early
Ohios, Triumphs, California Reds
Albert Lea Dew Drops, Elbow Lake
Beauties, Staples Stabelizers, Hurry
Up New Workers, in fact as many
varieties as there were spuds. Each
tuber, like all choice fruits, was en-
cased in special separate wrapping, We
were instructed to write up each of
these wrappings but there are only
sixty thousand adjectives given in
Webster's dictionary so we had to
give it up.
AS the political candidates soulfully
asserted eve were raised on a farm
and have been on familiar terms with
potatoes all our life but we never saw
potatoes with such eyes. They were
of all the shades Of the skies and all
the hues of the rainbow; they opened
wide with establishment, twinkled
