n EEP, grippy colds-frequently
J leading into pneumonia -
have been unusually preva-
lent this winter. Some authorities
insist that they are form of in
f1uenza, not SO virulent as the in
f1uenza during the first epidemic,
though they are worse than ordinary
colds.
Vicks As A Preventive.
Most medical authorities now agree
that these troubles are germ diseases
- commonly spread by breathing in
the germs. If the system is in good
shape-the membrane of the air
passages in a healthy condition
these germs DO not ordinarily breed.
Keep little Vicks rubbed up the
nostrils at all times, particularly when
exposed to crowds. At night melt
Vicks in a spoon and inhale the vap-
ors, or better still, use Vicks in
teakettle as directed below. This
treatment helps to keep the air pass
ages in good condition.
The Danger Is From Pneumonia.
The chief danger lies in the devel-
opnent of pneumonia. What is need
ed therefore is something to decrease
the congestion of the lungs. For this
purpose there is nothing like rube-
facient or counter-irritant, as wit
ness the use of blisters, poultices and
plasters for many generations. This
Irritation reddens the skin-draws
the blood from the congested parts to
the surface; the circulation is i'm
proved; there is sensation of
warmth and the possibility of pneu-
monia is greatly lessened.
"A ''Quik" Rubefacient Needed.
The value of this counter-irritant
effect is greatly increased if it is pro-
duced quickly. Nearly every family
has it's favorite method onion poui-
tees, turpehtine stupes mustard
plasters and poultices fof various
knds-all are good.
A very simple method is to apply
towels wrung out in hot water; as hot
as the patient can stand. This not
only reddens the skin quickly, but
also opens the pores so that more
Vlcks can be absorbed. Some, how

Get Skin Thoroughly Red.
Whatever method is used, the\ap-
plication should be applied over the
throat and chest until the skin is
thoroughly Redeemed. In very deep
colds, the sides and especially the
back from the middle of the shoulder
blades to point just above the waist,
should also be treated.
The patient should be given a good
purgative and, if convenient, a hot
mustard footbath for ten minutes
one tablespoon of mustard to a gal
Ion of water.
Then Massage With Vicks.
After the skin is thoroughly red
dened, it should be dried lightly and
Immediately the patient should be
given a brisk massage with Vicks all
over the parts. Continue this for five
minutes. This increases the counter
irritant effect. Then apply Vicks
thickly over all the parts; that is,
spread it on as you would a poultice-
about one-sixteenth of an inch thick
or more-and cover with two thick
nesses of hot flannel cloths.
Vicks' 'Double Action.
Thus applied Vicks has a double
action. First, Vicks is so made that
the body heat, gradually releases the
ingredients in the form of vapors.

the longer these vapors
will last. The night
clothing should always
be loose around the neck
and the bed clothes ar.
ranged in the form of a
funnel. These vapors
being lighter than air,
rise up from the chest
and, if the bed clothing
is properly arranged,
pass by the nose and
mouth and are thus in
hailed with each breath,
carrying the ,>1hedication
directly thru the air
passages to the lungs.

The second action of Vicks is ex-
ternal-by absorption thru and slim
ulation of the skin.
Repeat Treatment!
When the vapors begin to lose their
strength, fresh Vicks SHOULD be ap-
piled over the throat and chest. This
to keep up the continuous supply of
vapors. When the redness of the
skin dies out, all the Vicks remaining
SHOULD be wiped off and the entire
treatment repeated. That is, the hot
wet towels or mustard plasters should
be used until the skin is again thor
oughly redeemed, then massage with
Vicks, spread on thickly and cover
with hot fiannels, just as previously
done.
Steam and VapOr Method.
Sometimes when the patient is
badly choked up, the vapors from the
application on the chest are not suf-
ficient to make the breathing easier.
In these cases drop a tablespoonful
of Vicks into kettle of boiling water
and allow the patient to inhale the
warm steam and vapors combined for
about 10 minutes. Do this several
times day if needed. Keep the wa
ter boiling and put in additional
Vicks whenever the vapors decrease.
Put a sheet over the patient and the
tea-kettle, making kind of tent.
Take no chances with these grippy
colds. Remember, Vicks must be
used freely to be effective-and al
ways call doctor.

Woman Sues Fargo
Railway Company

Fargo, Sept. 2O-Suit for $4,000
brought by Miss Anna H. Luther,
stenographer in the office of the
grand recorder of the Masonic Grand
lodge for North Dakota, against the
City of Fargo and the Fargo Moor
head Street Railway company for in
juries alleged to have been received
in fall On the pavement at the
First Ave. North crossing on Broad
way on Aug. Fl, was instituted when
summons were served on the defend
ants. Chas. A. and Chas. M. Pollock
are the attorneys for the plaintiff.

ton for more than six months prior
to the accident. It-declares that as a
result of the fall on the pavement be-
tween the street car tracks severe
and permanent injuries were sustain
ed, the right hip being fractured.
Miss Luther was confined to hos.
pital for two weeks after the acct
dent. She is now confined to her
home and according to the complaint
will be so confined for long time
by reason of the injury.
The section of pavement referred
to in the complaint was recently re-
paired by the street railway company.

PRESERVING NORTH DAkOTA'S
TRADITIONS,

Despite the rush that accompanies
our development Of industries and
natural resources, city after city is
beginning to take up the problem Of
municipal planning. Fargo is now
also making study Of coming and
planning.
Out in the country the same move
ment is being expressed by efforts to
establish state parks to preserve and
to mark places of historical interest.
The good roads program. o: our states
is part of the plan. In North Da-
kota more than dozen sites and
parks have been preserved through
the efforts of few interested citi-
zens.
Miss Bertha Pal>er of Bismarck
is doing good work in this movement
to bring the development in the coun-
try up with the progress which is
being made in the city. Her inter-
est in art in North Dakota and in
the move to keep for future North
Dakotans the inspiration of country
parks and of romantic and historical
.pots is praiseworthy sentiment.
Few states can point to rich ira
dit ions and history equal to those of
North Dakota. Not many outsiders
have taken the trouble to find the
spots of natural beauty and of his
torical interest in this state. AS the
grand old men Of the st-te pass away,
and as plant and animal life of the
state is crowded aside by the devel-
opment Of industry and agriculture,
a program for saving these spots is
as necessary as is city planning
among municipalities.
Good roads, roadside planting,
home and schoolground planting will
be a part of the states program as
farming and other interests become
more stable and permanent. His
torical spots, natural life. and the
traditions of the state must be pre-
served now however, before the rush
of industrial development has oblit-
Grated them, and before the pioneers
best acquainted with the old days in
North Dakota are gone.
Every county in the state has good
sites which its citizens can help to
preserve for the inspiration and en-
joyment of future North Dakotans.
The movement merits encouragement
and citizens like Miss Palmer are
doing bit work which will be
appreciated as years 60 by.-Fargo

ADVENTURE OF

Umpeetah was sitting outside his

said "Nice Squaw!" and "Nice

something in sign language to Mis-
