Rub Away Children:s Colds
Let them breathe m
healing vapors all night

Riddles do take cold so easflyi
A change of weather-or Just get
ting the feet wet-frequently starts
them shifting.
Some little ones go from n cold
to another-never have n chance to
build up any strength.
A mistake to keep them
indoors
And so. the fear OF recurring colds
leads many mothers to keep their
children too much indoors.
This is a mistake Children kept
too warm are most apt to take cold
There is nothing like fresh air play
to harden little folk, so that they do
not take cold so easily,
The mothers problem
1t is best, therefore, to let children
run outside in all weathers-
OF course, some colds will result
The problem has been how to treat
these colds without constant internal
dosing-so disturbing to their delicate
stomachs.
Vicks answers this need
vicks vapoRub, the invention of a
North Carolina druggist, offers the
solution.
Applied externally. &c a be used
as freely and as often as desired. with
out any harmful effect
And use OF vicks at night does not
require shutting the windows. Just
leave the bed-coverings loose about
the child's neck and the rising vapors
will be inhaled all night.
Often averts spasmodic Group
Ono application OF v1cks at bedtime
often serves to prevent a threatened
attack of spasmodic Group
And when an attack m on with
out warning, in the night. use of Vicks
as directed frequently brings relief in
is minutes.
A family standby
For other cold troubles OF children.
such as sore throat, chest colds, head
colds and tonsilftis. vicks gives equal
ly quick action
For surface in-fiammations ft is
useful every day-cuts. burns, bruises.

From the information to hand, gather

that two Marines had beer beaten by sal

How the row started we DOM know
but the men crossed from the Market
after smashing the wind shield of the
Governors car which was standing ere,

Here, just in front Of Mr.. Remo's place

approaching them asked il they had seen
any sailors. The reply was No" And

the information was given that they had

cuts, one in the neck and another In the

Prior TO the Inauguration of the
paid fire department. the city yearly
appropriated to each of the twelve
fire companies the sum Of 5000 with
the understanding 1t was to be do
mated by the fire companies to the
Relief Association. All of the COM
panies. it is said, turned over $500
each. with the exception OF the Del

total of $1,000 yearly.
At the expiration OF the city's
contracts with the volunteer fire
companies. it was decided the city
could not legally contribute to the
support of the association, and the
$4,000 appropriation directed in
the law was thought to be the only
legal way the city could cancel any
obligations 1t might have TO the

NO NEW CASES
OF TYPHOID FEVER

No new cases of typhoid fever
have been reported from Breck's
Lane. and Il is believed the authori-
ties have the situation well in hand.
DR.. c. NJ. Handy. president of the
Board of Health, is authority for the
statement that the use of chlorine in
the city drinking water supply will
render the use of the water safe for
drinking purposes.
Anyone having any fears on the
subject may further safeguard the
health OF their families by boiling
all drinking water. This, as a pre-
cautionary measure. has been sug-
gested by DIR. l.. 5. Conwell, secre-
tary OF the State Board of Health.
Any case of typhoid fever in the
city should be promptly reported to
the Board OF Health that immediate
steps be taken for the relief OF the
patient and the prevention of the
spread OF the disease.
