Inevitably the failure to act on
this legislation will become an issue
in the next campaign. Promises
made by the republican leaders in
the last campaign that the tax
would be repealed or revised having
once been broken, the democratic
leaders will charge that no faith

charge cannot now be fOrseen.

A North Carolina Druggist Solves
the Problem

Thanks to Lunsford Richardson, a
druggist in Greensboro, N. c., this
problem has been solved, and Southern
mothers have been given a method of
treating cold troubles externally. Mr..
Richardson discovered a salve that
would vaporize by the body heat when
applied over throat and chest. These
vapors, inhaled with each breath, car
RED the medication through the air pas
sages to the lungs, at the same time the
salve was absorbed thru and stimulated
the skin, attracting the blood to the sur
face AMI thus aiding the vapors inhaled
to relieve the trouble. This prepara-
ton Mr.. Richardson called Vick's
VapoRub.
Vicks contains no harmful drugs,
just the old fashioned, time tested
remedies Menthol, Camphor, Thymol,
Eucalyptus, Turpentine, etc. - COM
bined in a new-fashioned way.

be applied up the nostrils and snuffed up
the head.

Rub Vicks over the throat and chest until
the difficult breathing is relieved, then
spread on thickly and cover with hot
flannel cloth. An application at bed time

Thompson Throws
 Up His Hands On
 Demands for Raises

Chicago, April 3.-Mayor Thomp- son today told delegation repre- senting Chicago firemen, 1,60O of whom had threatened to resign if not given wage increase of $500 year, that no revenue was available for further advances either at his hands or by the arbitration committee which will hear their complaints next week.
 The mayor blamed the present if nancial shortage of the city to tax lodging. Taxable property in Chi cago had increased in value more than $100,000,00O in 1915, and had been going up ever since. he said, but the taxes collected by the city had increased very little.
 George B. Hargan, president of the firemen's association, said the may or's reply would be placed before the firemen for action Monday and Tuesday.
 Led by President James Flynn, 100 representatives of the clerks and stenographers' union. whose strike tied up activities at the city hall for three days, also met with Mayor Thompson.
 Garbage handlers and other city employees who were on strike indi- cated they would await action by ths arbitration commission, which will hear all groups of the city employez who asked wage advances next week.
