THERE is NO EXCUSE
(The Outlook

In primitive communities where
such means of justice are lacking, or
in communities where the courts are
corrupt or incompetent and do not
act with decision and unsparing sever
ity, there is excuse for the assumption
of power to punish by the people
themselves; where these conditions
do not exist, there is no such excuse.

For the past twenty years I had
suffered from stomach trouble and
nervous indigestion. My appetite was
very poor all this time, and when 1 did
manage to eat little something it
always soured on my stomach. causing
gas to form and press against my
heart until il would palpitate dread
fully. l was seldom free from head
ache and at times became so dizzy l
would fall IL / couldn't get something
to hold to. My nerves were so badly
upset 1 could get but little sleep and
the least little noise nearly drove me
distracted. l also suffered with Sc
we're pain in my side just about all the
time, and finally became so rundown
and weak that for three years 1 could
not do my housework.
II had heard so much of the good
Tanlac was doing others ! decided to
try it. and l had taken less than a
bottle when my appetite began to i'm
prove and | could sleep better. | con-
tinued taking 1t and continued to i'm
prove until now ! have a splendid APP
petite, eat just anything l want and
everything agrees with me perfectly.
/ sleep we'll and always get up in the
mornings feeling greatly rested. The
headaches and dizzy spells have left
me entirely. never have a pain in
my side any more, and have regained
my strength so that l can do my
homework with the greatest ease. In
fact, I am a well woman aud am look
ing so well that a number of my
friends after seeing what Tanlac has
done for me are taking it, and they all
say it is doing them a world of good
] can never praise Tanlac too highly
for what IL has done for me-"

A cold is simply an infanma-
ton of some part of the air pas
sages-throat, larynx or bronchial
tubes-just like a sore is an in
fammation of the skin. A long
continued cold means constant
inflammation and this constant
inflammation frequently weakens
the air passages so that they
become an easy point of attack
for invading germs of more serious
diseases. A "cold that hangs on, :"
therefore, is simply natures red
flag" indicating that there is
trouble below" and this warning
should never be neglected.
Nightly applications of Vick's
VapoRub will aid nature to clear
up that inflammation. Because
Vicks acts locally by stimulation
thru the skin to draw out the
inflammation, attract the blood
away from the congested spots

ton, the medicinal ingredients
of Vicks are vaporized by the
body heat. These vapors are
breathed in an night hong, thus
bringing the medication to bear
directly upon the infamed areas.
Vicks should be rubbed in over
the throat and chest until the
skin is red-then spread on
thickly and covered with hot
flannel cloths. Leave the cloth
ing loose around the neck and the
bed clothes arranged in the form
of a funnel so the vapors arising
may be freely inhaled. If the
