DIRECTIONS FOR THE USE
OF VICKS

VNpors 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 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 An-Plenty Of fresh air In the
bed room is the best way TO prevent
colds and lung troubles. Fresh air does
not cause colds; il strengthens the lungs,
enabling the system TO throw OF colds.
Asthma - Vicks is not a "cure" for
asthma-so far as we know, there is no
cure. In many cases, however, Vicks
does give relief. Rub il well over the
spinal column, from the neck TO the

Then apply freely over throat and chest

however, Vicks is excellent. Dissolve
q half teaspoonful of salt in q pint Of
warm water and snuff up the nostrils
night and morning. Then insert Vicks
freely UP the nostrils as far as pos
sible, snuffing well back into the air
passages.
Children's Colds - Wcks Is psrticu-
larly valuable in treating children's
colds, since It is an external treatment,

NEW STYLE OF ARCHITECTURE
Long Sought and Made Possible Only
Through the Employment Of Mod
ern Reinforced Concrete.

Planning a memorial church to be
built entirely of concrete, an American
architect introduces a novel mode of
construction and claims to have found
"what architects for centuries have
failed to produce-an entirely new and
pure style of architecture. Pure, be
cause ii conforms to all the essential
ideas Of architecture; new, because
only modern reinforced concrete has
made it possible The structure takes
advantage of the Elasticity of rein
forced concrete, and the building,
which would be practically monolithic
when finished, would have its external
and internal forms identical to n
degree new to architecture; its vaults
would spring direct from the floor
level and there would be no separat-
ing distinction between walls and roof.
In fact, one might say that the build
ing would be "all roof, and have nc
structural walls whatever" Archi-
tectural opinion may fail Of unani-
nous approval; yet it must be adj
mitted that the plan seems to adapt
itself logically to the medium in which
It is to be worked out, which is an
important point in its favor.-Ex-
