is not absolutely certain, but it is agreed
by most authorities that keeping the
system in good condition and the air

Melting little Vicks in a spoon night

VAPORS IMPORTANT For diseases
of the respir atory organs, such as
colds, large part of the value OF Vicks
lies in its vaporizing qualities. There
fore, 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 aris-
ing may be freely inhaled.
HOT WET CLOTHS In cases of
very severe colds, sore throat, coughs
incipient pneumonia, etc, hot, wet towels
should be applied over the throat and
chest to open the pores Of the skin before
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
asthma-so far as we know, there is no
cure. In many cases, however, Vieks
docs give relief. Rub it well over the
spinal column, from the neck to the hips
to relieve the nervous tension. Then

What is Vicks?

Vicks is the invention of North Carolina
druggist, MIR. L. Richardson. During his years
of experience behind the prescription counter,
Mr.. Richardson to realize the need for some
effective and convenient method Of treating dis
eases OF the respiratory organs, such spasmodc
Group, pneumonia, bronchitis, etc. The only way
get medication directly to these parts is III vapor
form since internal medicines only the stomach.
Mr.. Richardson finally worked out a process
of combining the standard, tme-tested remedies
-Camphor, Menthol, Turpentine, Oil of Eu-
calyptus, etc.-in save form, SO that when
applied to the body, the ingredients would be
vaporized by the body heat. This preparation he
called Vick's VapoRub.

For Surface Congestion
and inflammation

In cases such as are listed below, Viclzs
is of value as a poultice, liniment or
plaster, because of its penetrative and
stimulative effect through the skin. Its
vsporizing qualities are naturally with
out value for these troubles.
BITES, STINGS Apply ordinary
household ammonia or wet bread soda.
Then apply Vicks as a salve.
BOILS Apriy cloths, dipped in hot
water, to soften the skin; then epply
Vicks thickly over the boil, covering with
a thin cloth. Repeat every few hours.
BRUISES Apply to the bruised part

solved. Also give twenty grains Of
quinine twice daily; wrap dose in tissue
paper and throw well back of tongue.
Vicks is Not Meant to Replace
the Physician
At the first symptom of a serious IN
ness, such as pneumonia, a physician
should always be called. Many other
troubles, such as chronic catarrh or con-
tinued headaches, call for the diagnosis
of good doctor.
Vicks is simply an emergency remedy,
which can be kept in the home ready for
instant use and which can be used freely,
with pc;fect safety, on the youngest
member of the family.

addresses you will send US.

tinctly regretted by the recipient.
The young zebra is now almost
half grown, and Cullen is properly
proud of this fact. He says that
zebras seldom breed in captivity. He
also states that most of the few that
are born in captivity die In their
first few weeks, so that Memphis
really has something to be proud Of
The young zebra, he states, is a very
strong and healthy specimen, and he
thinks it will live to a ripe old age.

Aged Deed to Be Suitably Framed

Officials Of the Charles Town Pres
oyterian Church are to have the or
iginal deed framed, that gave their
congregation title to the first LOT il
ever owned in what is now Charles
Town. The deed will be protected
by glass. front and back, and after
being framed will be placed in the
vestibule of the church.
The deed scared with age and with
its edges frazzled from being folded
was given by Charles Washington
and his wife Mildred to David Ken.
nedy, John White, Peter Burr, ana
Jacob Conchlin, farmers, for the use
OF the Presbyterian congregation OF
Charles Town. II is dated February
II, 1887, one year after Charles Town
was laid out. The lot cost twenty
five pounds OF current money OF the
Commonwealth Of Virginia, and was
located at the corner of West and
Congress streets, fronting 1872 feet on
the former and l65 feet on the lat
ter. The congregation sobn after
buying the lot erected a stone church
building upon it. There they wor-
shipped until 1880 or so, when the
present church was completed.
The deed was recorded in Martins
burg, then the county seat for this
section OF the State. Allen Pollock,
James Stuart and William Cherry
were the attesting witnesses to the
deed. Was this William Cherry, the
Revolutionary Captain who as land
lord dispensed grog at the Cherry
Tavern in Charles Town for so many
years afterward? asks the Charles
Town Advocate.

How the Deaeons Did II.


In one Of the older churches of New
Haven there is very quaint and
5.au.i'ul baptismal service set OF sill
'er AMI no less quaint is the tale of
how the old church came by the same
1t was during the year that York
town fell that the trustees OF the
church decided that the frame build
ing must have repairs and sent to Bos-
ton for six kegs Of nails In course
Of time the kegs arrived on one OF the
huge and slow-movins freight wagons
Of the day and were duly delivered to
the carpenters.
Nails in those DAYS were scarce and
expensive, each one being the hand
work OF blacksmith, and, as a conse-
quence OF the methods followed in
their manufacture, the smiths usually
turning out 100 or so on days when
they had nothing else in particular 10
engage their attention, they were ap,
to be very irregular in size and de
gree Of perfection. The delight of tho
chief carpenter was, therefore, great
when, knocking in the head Of one keg,
he found the nails of remarkably uni,
form size and indicating the best
workmanship and material
aye were in luck, Deacon" he re-
marked to one OF the trustees who
had been present to receipt for the
six kegs, "for these be Spanish nails,
made at Toledo. Belize they we're ia
ken from Spanish ship by a sea
rover" He began to beat in the head
Of another key and uttered an exclama-
ton of establishment.
These bent nails, deacon!" he
gasped, his eyes staring.
They were not. The keg was full
to the brim OF Spanish silver dollars.
$50 I see, Master Thomas" the
deacon remarked quietly Suppose
you head up that key again, and will
call meeting of the trustees to dis
cuss this matter. We must write to
the merchant of Boston concerning
it,"
The meeting OF the trustees was duly
held that very day, and long and
earnest were the arguments that took
place. What was the proper course
for them to follow? Should they sim
ply write the Boston merchant that
one Of the kegs had been found to be
full of silver dollars? The church was

cut Yankees to the bone. 1t was mos,
obvious that the Boston merchant had
obtained the key in some unusual
manner and it was logical assump-
ton that he had paid for it on nail
value basis, as he had sold it.
Then uprose one who might have
done mighty things in finance had he
lived century and half later.
"Let us WRITE" he said, "to this mer-
chant Of Boston town simply the facts
that there was an error in shipment"
And so they did.
In time came the merchants reply
He had bought the kegs from a pri-
vatersman; that they were sold as
bought and "that no mistakes could
be rectified."
And there is no doubt that the dea-
cons chuckled somewhat dry'y as they
ordered the silver dollars Of Spain
melted down and cast into that service
which can today be pointed out to the
youth Of New Haven as an example Of
of, well, something.
