DIRECTIONS FOR THE USE
OF VICKS

Vapors Important - For diseases of
the respiratory organs, such as colds,
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 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-Plenty 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 "cure" for
ssthma-so far as we know, there is no
cure. In many cases, however, Vicks
does give relief Rub it well over the
spinal column, from the neck to the
hips 70 relieve the nervous tension.
Then apply freely over throat and chest
at bed time and cover with hot fannels.
Renew frequently and always have the
covers loose, SC that the vapors may be
freely inhaled. Also melt Vicks in a
spoon and inhale the vapors and apply
a little up the nostrils.
Bronchitis, Sore Throat, Colds in the
Chest-If severe case, first apply
hot, wet towels over the throat and
chest. Then rub Vicks in well until
the skin is red. spread on Tricky and
cover with two thicknesses Of hot. fan
mel cloths.
Cstarrb, Colds in the Head-Melt
little Vicks in spoon and inhale the
vapors- Also apply well up the nostrils.
There are 50 many varieties of catarrh
that a competent physician should al
ways be consulted. For many forms,
however, Vieks is excellent. Dissolve
a half tcaspoonful of salt in pint Of
warm water and snuff up the nostrils
night and morning. Then insert Vicxs
freely up the nostrils as far as pos
sible, snufing we'll back into the al
passages.
Children's Colds - Vicks IS partcu-
larry valuable in treating children's
colds, since it is an external treatment,
and therefore, does not disturb the
delicate digestions of children. The
best plan is to keep Viclcs constantly
on hand and apply freely and often at
the FIRST sign Of .tsniff3es.
Growing children require plenty Of
fresh air and exercise and should be

Vicks Acts Both Externally
and Internally

N1CKS VAPORUB is the discovery of a North
Carolina druggist, L. Richardson, who found way
to combine the standard, time tested remedies -
Mcnthol, Camphor, Turpentine, Eucalyptus, Thyme,
Juniper etc. - in salve form, that when Vicks is
applied the body, these ingredients vaporzed
by the body heat.
INTERNALLY, these vapors, inhaled with each breath
all night long carry the medication direct to the air
passages and lungs
EXTERNALLY, Vicks is absorbed through and stnu-
laes the skim attracting the blood the affected parts
and aiding the vapors inhaled to relieve the inham
nation or congestion.

To Avoid influenza - Influenza is a
spit borne disease, and when Inhaled

BUILDING MATERIALS
INCREASE FORESEEN
Engineer Declares Home Construc-
ton Will Get Setback Unless
Legislative Steps Are Taken.

The revival Of building expected to
occur in the spring will be reflected
in a new upward movement in prices
for materials, declares Charles F.
Dingman, engineer for a building and
construction company Of Palmer.
Mass. House construction will re-
ceive another severe setback unless
active measures are taken. he points
out in a statement issued this week.
He declares that the bottom seems
to have been reached in the building
material market. some commodities
selling below cost. With over $780,
100000 worth of public improvements
voted for at the last election. the COM
ing season should see a decided re-
newal of construction activity, he
says. His statement. in part. follows:
IF people only realized it, and had
the courage to act we should now
have the most favorable opportunity
to work toward relieving the house
shortage that we have had for many
years or that we shall have for many
years to come.
THE very unemployment that Gre
ates so much hardship now could be
turned into a blessing. This unem-
ployment has provided q greater sup
ply of labor for house construction
than has been available for a long
time. Men are anxious to work now
and will return good value for every
dollar paid them in wages.

U. S. GAINS TRADE.
Exports to Spain Increase 24O Per
Cent in Five Years.

American exports to Spain increased
240 per cent from 1914 to 1919, it is
noted in a report on the growing i'm
portance of the Spanish market"
made public today by the Department
of Commerce.
The favorable American trade growth
is explained to Trade Commissioner
Arthur Young. author of the report, as
due largely to the displacement of
Germany and to some extent Of France
and Great Britain in the Spanish mar
ket by the United States.
AS a result of the war, the report
asserts. Spain. like the United States,
changed from debtor to a creditor
nation with a trade balance in favor
of Spain in 1919 amounting to $772,-
0O0, 900, which strengthened the finan-
cial situation in the country to a re-
markable extent"
The meagerness of economic infor-
nation about Spain available to Ameri-
can interests, the department declares,
in calling attention to the report, has
not been in keeping with the growing
importance of that country"

PROPOSES GREATER
MARKET FACILITIES
Federal Trade Commission
Suggests Aids to Sale of
Perishable Goods.

Central markets for perishable food
products should be established in all
large cities, and a federal licensing
system should be set up applicable
10 all dealers in such foods at those
markets. the Federal Trade Commits
sion proposes in it's annual report to
Congress. made public today.
The conclusions of the commission
are based on an investigation COW
ering many months. and it declares
that federal action is necessary to
obtain effective regulation, and to
avoid unfair and waSteful practices
with the consequent effect on prices
In the present system the commission
sees as a. hindrance to the proper
passage of perishables from the pro-
Queer to the consumer certain inter-
trade dealings which it believes
should be eliminated, and it suggests
that the handling of these products
he surrounded by numerous regula-
tionS and restrictions. Such as the
recording of available supplies. the
,Iating Of cold storage periods and
provisions for auction marketing.
Urges Adequate Facilities.
Facilities should be made adequate.
the commission says. to enable the
producer to ship freely into the GEN.
trail markets, and with proper pro-
lection of his interests" The market
ing system should be so governed
that Objectionable boarding would be
eliminated, and proper coordination
of transportation facilities should be
accomplished to make deliveries GER
tain when required
The commission says that the need
ed reforms can hardly be expected to
be accomplished by the initiative of
the dealers" and asserts that state
and municipal authorities lack ade-
quate power to effectively regulate
the handling of the food supplies.
Although cooperation of state and
local authorities and railroads might
accomplish the ends sought, the COM
mission believes this plan does not
hold out much hope for a satisfactory
solution of the problem.
Turning to wheat products. the COM
mission says it has found that con-
eentration of the milling industry has
progressed far enough so that prob
ably ten Of the largest milling con-
Germs could supply the demand of the
country for -four" The commission
from thirty-seven milling corpora
tions showed that their sales had in
creased from $3.50. 600, 600 to $354,00o.-
600 between 1914 and 1918, while their
annual profits had grown from IS, 500,-
900 to $20.000,000 in the same period.
