This Little Chap Is
Never "Dosed" For Colds
The Hymans Now Use the "External" Treat

MR. PAUL S. HYMAN, of
438 E. Washington Street,
Chambersburg, Pa., is the father
of this fine baby boy. Sometime
ago Mr. Hyman tried the South
ern method of treating colds exter
nally—Vick's Vapoßub Salve, and
was so delighted with the results
that he has given us permission to
reprint his letter as follows:
"I had a very bad cold on my
chest, and coughed very hard. I
rubbed Vick's Vapoßub on niy chest
for about five or six times and the
j results were wonderful. Also, I have
a fifteen months old
baby boy who had a
very bad cold in his
head. My wife simply

yours is best so far."
Vick's Vapoßub is quicker and
better than internal medicines for
cold troubles and is particularly
recommended for children, as it
does not disturb their digestion.
The heat of the body releases a
soothing pine tar vapor that is in
haled with each breath, and, in
addition, Vapoßub absorbs thru
the skin, taking out the tightness
and soreness. Mothers will find it
a "true Bodyguard for the home".

1,000 LOCKERS
ON INDEPENDENCE
Private Controlled Bathhouse
Will Be Bun on Island Since
City Fails to Act
City council failing: to provide In the
budget this year for facilities for the
thousands of bathers !n the city who
crowd the Susquehanna l'.asin each sum
mer, E. Charles Ensmlnger, owner of
Independence Island, announced that a
private bathhouse containing 1,000 lock
ers will be erected there this spring.
' Willie the announcement that proper
: facilities are to be provided tills year
met with hearty approval; many of the
thousands of people who have started
a campaign for a municipal bathhouse
severely criticised the City Commis
sioners again for not providing for the
evident needs of the large crowds who
use the river almost daily during the
summer for bathing and swimming.
Mr. Knsminger, who is deeply inter
ested in the development of the river
| basin, when It was seen that Council
did not intend to provide bathing fa
cilities, began planning for a private
bathhouse, and work will be started as
soon as river conditions permit.
Rates for renting lockers will be 10
cents for each person, it was said; or
2r> cents, including a bathing suit. Mr.
i Knsminger is planning, also, to rent
I some of the lockers for the entire sea-
I son.
While persons interested In aquatic
sports said to-day that these charges
were reasonable, it was pointed out
that Council could have saved thousands
of persons this expense by providing
a municipal bathhouse.
The site for the bathhouse on Inde
pendence Island will be selected as soon
• as the ice moves out, and work started
as soon as possible. The cable on the
ferry to the island will be raised to
get more speed for the new boat which
has been ordered.

An End To The Curse
Of WearingW s es
No More Rupture Troubles
60 Days Trial
To Prove It
Van Don't Have to Kink A IVnny
Here is something; absolutely gunr
■mtrnl to keep your rupture from
coming out.
And you can try It sixty days—make
a thorough prove-it-to-you test —with-
out having to risk a penny.
If it doesn't hold—if it doesn't keep
your rupture from bothering you In any
way—then It won't cost you a single
cent.
The Only TIIIIIK (iond Knougli
To stanil Such A Text
You know as well as we that you
can't tell anything about a truss or
anything else for rupture merely by
trying it on. That's thj worst of going
to a drugstore or local truss titter's.
A truss or so-called- "appliance" may
seem alright when you tlrst put It on,
and afterwards prove utterly worth
less.
The only way in the world you can
make sure of exactly what you're get
ting is by u tlO ilnyn' trial—u thorough
day-after-day tent.
And our guaranteed rupture holder—
the famous Clottie Automatic Massaging
Truss—is the only thing of any kind
whatever for rupture that you can get
on Bixty days' trial, the only thing good
enough to Mtiind such a long and thor
ough test.
Something Nothing IClae Doea
The Ciuthe Automatic Massaging
Truss is so utterly different
from anything else for rupture that It
has received eighteen separate patent*.
It provides the only way ever dlaeov
ered for overcoming the weakneas
which iq the real rauae of rupture.
Just now It does that—entirely au
tomatically is all explained In the
free book.
Will .Save You From Operation
The riuthe Truss lias so thoroughly
proved its merits that physicians in all
parts of the world and surgeons in the
t,'. 8. Army and Navy now recommend it
Instead of advising operation. It has
brought complete recovery In hundreds
of cases after operattou has proved a
failure,
