EIu mi. Year is MiIder

While we know very little more about Inc 1u now than we did last year-the germ itself has never been positively identifed-still most authorities agree that the flu germs are breathed in. If the system is in good shape and the membrane or lining of the air pass ages is in healthy condition-these germs are thrown off.
 A good plan is to melt little Vicl's NapoRuh in a spoon night and morn ing. and inhale the vapors, also apply a little up the nostrils several times a day. especially just before being ex- posed to crowds.
 Treat All Colds Promptly
 Above all. keep free from colds, as colds irritste the lining of the ail passages and make them real breed ing grounds for germs. Prompt use ot Vick's VapoRub aids in preventing colds. For head colds, sore throat or hosrssness. rub Vicks well over the throat and chest and cover with a warm flannel cloth. For deep chest colds, severe sore throat or bronchitis, hot wet towels should first be applied to the throat, chest and back between the shoulder blades to open the pores, Then -Nicks should be rubbed in over the parts until the skin is red-spread on thickiy and covered with two thieknesSes Of hot flannel cloths. Leave the ciethinE- loose around the neck. so the rapors. reieased by the body heat, may be freely inhaled.
 These Tsfors. inhaled with each breath. ca-7r the medication directly co the luasz and air passages. At the same time fEcks is absorbed through .t..4 sf. -frs relieve the Congestion within.
 Use of External Treatment for colds
 Increasing
 Vicks VapoRub is the discovery of a North Carolina druggist who found how to combine in Salve form, the standard time tested remedies. Cam -Menthol-Eucalyptu - Thyme, etc.-so that when the salve is ap- piled to the body heat, these ingredi- ents are liberated in the form of vapors.
 Nicks is particularly recommended for children's croup or colds, since it is externally applied and therefore can be used freely and often without the slightest harmful effects.
 The best evidence of the value of Vicks Is the steadily increasing num- Der of people who have been convert ed to the use of this outside" treat ment.
 Beginning with the customers of a small retail drug store, the use of Nicks has grown-year by year-state by state-until now more than IT million jars are used annually. And this in spite of the fact that Vicks Is Q new form of treatment to many folks in the North and West. Vicks can be had at all druggists in three -sizes-30c. soc or s1.2o.
