Sntnvdnr. T.-Vki IS, 1922 rjiGF, THREE o o Infhwriza War? Is the type of heavy cold now prevalent a true Influenn? Doctors disagree. It will be remembered that fter the terrible ' epidemics of 1918 and 1919, it was predicted that "waves' of influenza would recur, milder each time, until humanity should have acquired immunity against the disease. Science has not yet found the germ, nor medi cine the cure. But wc have learned better how to avoid influenza, grip and pneumonia. The value of Vicks as an aid In preventing thtse diseases is explained below. 111 W gu.jeimigi i,i.-,-,Uj ill. Ih 1 W -4 1 w-Am .

A feature of these selections were the whistling choruses by the boys of the classi 1 An interesting and Instructive ad dress was given by l' L. Meyers, caf li ter of the Im (irnnrie National bank, i who choso as his subject, "Money, j Wealth and Capital." The speaker traced the development of our pres ent system of exchango from the prim itive beginnings of barter. He then pointed out that wealth consisted of a surplus of any commodity that had marketable value, nnd spoke of capital as an accumulation of wealth, not necessarily In the form of money, but wealth that could be again used for the production of further wealth.

' MOST medical authorities now agree that Colds, Grip, Influenza and Pneumonia are all germ diseases most commonly spread by breathing in the germs. If the system is in good shape the membrane of the air pass ages in a healthy condition these germs do not breed. In fact the germs of all of these dis eases are frequently found in perfectly healthy persons. It is only when the bodily resistance is lowered as by a cold for instance thattriey are able to harm us. Avoid Sneezers and Coug It is best to keep away from the sneezers coughers in the street cars and public places, if you must meet them, insert some Vicks in nostrils before you start out. On returning home, melt a little Vicks in a tin cup or a spoon and inhale the vapors. Opposed to Bacteria The ingredients of Vicks are not only anti septic, but rubefacient that is,- they summon the blood to the tissues where applied and this free blood circulation is nature's best method of repelling germ infection. Also Vicks spreads a protective film over the membrane and further more is opposed to the growth of bacteria. In short, we believe you have a much better chancer to avoid infection by these numerous germs if you have Vicks in your nose. Attack a Cold Immediately When you feel a cold coming on, go right home. Take a laxative. Make some hot lem onade, then take a hot bath as hot as you can stand. : Stay in the tub 30 minutes, sipping slowly several glasses of the lemonade. Get into bed, with a hot water bottle at your feet, and pile on blankets. After an hour's sweet, dry thor oughly with a rough towel, apply Vicks over throat and chest, rub in well until the skin is red, and then spread on thickly and cover with one or two thicknesses of hot flannel cloth. Get into bed again between dry sheets. Leave the bcdclothing loose about the neck, like a funnel, so that the rising vapors may be freely inlialed. It is an obstinate cold, indeed, that will resist such treatment. If it docs, call a physician.

He realized that cold troubles were affections of the respiratory organs and that the only way to get medication direct to these parts was in the form of vapors. Mr. Richardson finally worked out the process for making Vicks, so made that the body beat releases the volatile ingredients In the form of vapors. Vicks really is "a vapor lamp in salve form." The Ingredients of Vicks Since the dawn of history mankind has been searching nature for remedies aijalnit cold ' troubles. The knowledge punid thru a thousand yenrs has come do-.vn to us today. Vicks con tains the best known remedies for these troubles, some of them of great antiquity. Menthol, for instance, cones from Ol of Peppermint which was grown in Egypt three thousand years ao and whose virtues are described in the old Ice landic books of the 13th century. The highest authority on drugs and their uses is the U. S. Dispensatory. We give le!ow a few extracts from the Dispensatory on some of the ingredients in Vicks. , MENTHOL "It is artittly antibacterial. It is employed for its antiseptic and anaesthetic injluer.ee in coryza, pharyngitis and luryi.gitis." CAMPHOR "Has a peculiar and agreeable ' effect on the mucous membrane relieves ctmeestwn and inflammation is a powerful stimulant to the respiratory centers."
