Vicks Acts Both Externally
and Internally

VICKS VAPORUB is the discovery of North
Carolina druggist, L. Richardson, who found way
to combine the standard, time tested remedies -
Mcnthol, Camphor, Turpentine, Eucalyptus, Thyme
Juniper ctc.-in salvc form, SO that when Vcks is
applied to the body these ingredients vaporized
by the body heat.
INTERNALLY, these vapors, inhaled with each breatl,
all night long carry the medication direct to the air
passages and lungs
EXTERNALLY, Vicks is absorbed through and stinu-
latcs the skin attracting the blood the affected parts
and aiding the vapors inhaled to relieve the inar-
nation or congestion.
How the Use of Vicks Has Grown
Starting with the customers of Mr. Richardson's retail
drug store, the of Vcks has increased county by
county, state by state, until than II million
jars are used annually practically jar for every
family in the United Statesand this spite of the fact
that Vicks is still treatment to many people in the
North and West Once used Vicks is friend for life
it is SO easily appled-so quick in it's results

method that was pursued in North
Dakota and North Dakota today is suf-
fering from socialistic domination
The unfortunate feature of this pri-
mary law, which when adopted was
thought to provide a means for the
selection of better class of candi-
dates than was named through the
fundamentally of the old convention
system, provides a way for every man
with an ambition to become an office
holder to become a. candidate. There is
no organization behind these self-con-
stituted candidates, and no one is re-
spOnsible for their candidacy nor for
their conduct of office should one of
them secure the nomination and is
subsequently elected. Many men enter
their names for office in the primary
without the faintest expectation of re-
ceiving the nomination but take that
means for publicity purposes through
getting their names before the public
Now, for instance, at the present time
there are five republican candidates
for governor before the people. No
convention of republicans has re-
quested these men to stand for that
important office. In no case is there
an organization of even the citizens
of the aspirant's home town clammor-
ing for his nomination, and in no in
stance has the candidacy been encour-
aged by petitions of electors. These
men have become candidates solely
upon their own initiative. If they had
the interests of the commonwealth at
heart and were not wholly prompted
by and overweening ambition these
several candidates would get to gether
and if they could not agree to pull out
of the field in the interest of any one
of the number they might at least step
aside in favor of a disinterested citi-
zen with business and executive abil-
ity who has demonstrated his fitness
for conducting the affairs of state and
in whom the American-loving and
conservative element Of the population
could place confidence and would
willingly support at the polls. If some
thing of this kind is not done the
present bunch of candidates will find
their ambitions frost bitten after the
primaries and very disagreeable
surprise handed out to the republican
party.

The Literary Digest is conducting
the most comprehensive straw ballot
to ascertain the presidential prefer
ences of the people of the country that
has ever been undertaken by any pub
LEGATION, or through any system here
tofore devised to learn the trend of
public opinion prior to the holding of
national nominating conventions.
Eleven million ballots have been sent
out, and this is 3,500.000 more ballots
than half the total number of ballots
cast by all parties for candidates for
president at the last presidential cleo
ton. 1t is not to be presumed that all
those who receive these ballots will
respond, but as it costs those receiv-
ing the ballots no more than the ex-
ertion of making two crosses before
the printed names of candidates on a
prepaid postal card expressing first
and second choice for president it can
be expected that there will be a res
pOnse from very large per centage
of the ballots. These ballots are abso-
lutely secret, as there is no signature
nor mark of Identification on the card.
The ballots are on light card board
about the size of an ordinary postal
card with the names of every candi-
date that has been mentioned as active
or aprospective candidate, or who
may be in receptive mood. There are
four blank lines on the card SO that
the recipient of the card may write in
his choice If the name may not be on
the list. The ballots have been sent out
to voters of all groups and classes so
that the voting will not be the express
sion of any single party. The result of
this ballot will be announced by the
Literary Digest from week to week
until the session of the national con-
vention, and If the responses are gen.
eral the public will be given a pretty
fair idea of the trend of opinion as to
who is the favorite candidate. When
one considers the vast labor and ex-
penses involved in printing. handling,
checking, and postage connected with
the issuance of 100000 ballots it
will be realized that the Literary Di-
gest has undertaken stupendous
task at an enormous. cost. Furthermore
1t would strike one that if through this
means the people would declare their
choice for public officials chosen by
tic ballot it would greatly simplify
and cheaper elections. and largely do
away with tin panning, hellabalooing,
red fire. spread eagleism that stirs up
the country every two and four years,
and which is accompanied by so much
lying, rancor, bitterness and knife
whetting. By all means, if the Literary
Digest's experiment is success. let
us get into the mail order business in
this matter of selecting national, state
and county officials. 1t won. be more
Of an expression of individual senti-
ment, anyhow, when the selection is

choice in an election booth
