DO YOUR SHARE
IN PREVENTING
The SPREAD
OF INFLUENZA

The influenza epidemic, though not
so virulent as in 1913, is claiming
many victims. To assist in waging
a successful campaign against it
health officials of many centers
have issued warnings and given out
many common sense precautionary
measures. Get plenty of sleep and
as much fresh air as possible. Ex-
ercise regularly. Avoid crowds
whenever possible. Eat only whole
some food. These are ways of build
ing up bodily resistance to disease.
Many have found Vapex an in
valuable aid in warding off infiu-
enza, grippe and colds of all kinds.
It is extremely simple and pleasant
to use. Get Vapex from your drug
gist, in the little square bottle and
the package with the green triangle.
Put drop on your handkerchief.
Breathe the vapor deeply through
the nae. 1t keeps the head clear,
prevents contagion, and will stop a
cold at the start. Vapex may be
used frequently, anywhere. The
strength of one application lasts for
an entire day. Vapex is recon-
mended especially for all those who
must mingle regularly with crowds.
