There was a bit of paper tied to the
peg, and on it was written:

Harry's bump brought down a
square hole with a round peg in it.
Its paper said:
Don't get into the wrong place"
Then Frank gave a bump that was
regular butt, and he held up a
square hole with a square peg In it.
These words were with them:
"A place for everybody, and every
body in his place."
When Dick bumped, he go a round

just learned that word sure" He
was so proud Of 1t that he used to
say it to his father instead OF "yeth

Then the girls said 1t was their

Ruth got an alphabet, so as to learn

Sarah had "a headache in her

There can be no comparison made

DIRECTIONS FOR THE USE
OF VICKS

VApors Important For diseases of
the respiratory organs, such as colds, a
large part of the value of Vicks lies in
its vaporizing qualities. Therefore,
whenever Vicks is applied over the
throat and chest, care should be taken
to leave the clothing loose around the
neck and the bed clothes arranged in
the form of a funnel, so that the vapors
arising may be freely inhaled
Hot Wet Cloths - In cases of very
severe colds, sore throat, coughs, incip-
lent pneumonia, etc, hot, wet towels
should be applied over the throat and
chest to open the pores of the skin be-
fore applying Vicks.
Fresh Air-PIenty of fresh air in the
bed room is the best way to prevent
colds and lung troubles. Fresh air does
not cause colds; it strengthens the lungs,
enabling the system to throw off colds
Asthma - Vicks is not a "cure" for
aSthma-So far as we know, there is no
cure. In many cases, however, Vick3
does give relief. Rub it well over the
spinal column, from the neck to the
hips to relieve the nervous tension.
Then apply freely over throat and chest
at bed time and cover with hot hannels.
Renew frequently and always have the
covers loose, SO that the vapors may be
freely inhaled. Also melt Vicks in
spoon and inhale the vapors and apply
little up the nostrils.
Bronchitis, Sore Throat, Colds in the
Chest-If a severe case, first apply
hot, wet towels over the throat and
chest. Then rub Vicks in well until
the skin is red, spread on thickly and
cover with two thicLrnesscs of hot, fan
mel cloths.
Catarrh, Colds in the Head-Melt a
little Vicks in a spoon and inhale the
vapors. Also apply well up the nostrils.
There are SO many varieties of catarrh
that competent physician should al
ways be consulted. For many forms,
however, Vicks is excellent. Dissolve
half teaspoonful of salt In pint of
warm water and snuff up the nostrils
night and morning. Then insert Vicks
freely up the nostrils as far as pos
sible, snuffng well back into the air
passages.
ChiIdren's Colds - Vicks is particu-
larly valuable in treating children
colds, since it is an external treatment,
and therefore, does not disturb the
delicate digestions of children The
best plan is to keep Vicks constantly
on hand and apply freely and often at
the first sign of "snifHes.''
Growing children require plenty of
fresh air and exercise and should be
