Mr. James H. Allen suffered for years with rheumatism. Many times this terrible disease left him helpless and unable to work. He finally decided, after years of* ceaseless study, that no one can be free from rheumatism until the ac cumulated impurities, commonly call ed uric acid deposits, were dissolved in the joints and muscles and ex pelled from the body. . With this idea in mind he consulted physicians, made experiments and finally compounded a prescription that quickly and completely banished every sign and symptom of rheumatism from his system. He freely gave his discovery to others who took it. with what might be called marvelous success. After years of urging he decided to let suf ferers everywhere know about his discovery through the newspapers. I Geo. A. Gorges can supply you.

In Addition, Vapoßub is Abft sorbed Through and Stimu ates the Skin, Attracting the Blood to the Surface and Thus Aids in Reducing the Conges tion Within. CALL A PHYSICIAN GO TO BED—STAY QUIET— DON'T WORRY There Is No Occasion For Panic— Influenza Itself Has a Very Low Percentage of Fatalities, Not Over One Deatli Out of Every Four Hundred Cases. According to the N. C. Hoard or Health. The Chief Danger Lies in Complications Arising, Attacking Principally Pa tients in a Run-Down Condition— Those Who Don't Go to Bed Soon Enough, or Those Who Get Up Too Early. | Spanish Influenza, which appeared in Spain in May, has all the appear ance of grip or la grippe, which has swept over the world in numerous epidemics as far back as history runs. Hippocrates refers to an epi demic in 412 B. C. which is regard ed by many to have been influenza. Every century has had its attacks. Beginning with 1831, this country has had five epidemics, the last in 1889-90. THE SYMPTOMS Grip, or influenza, as it is now called, usually begins with a chill followed by aching, feverishness and sometimes nausea and dizziness, and a general feeling of weakness and depression. The temperature is from 100 to 104, and the fever usu ally lasts from three to five days. The germs attalk the mucous mem brane —or lining of the air passages —nose, throat and bronchial tubes —there is usually a hard cough, especially bad at night, oftentimes sore throat or tonsilitis, and fre quently all the appearances of a se vere head cold. THE TREATMENT Go to bed at the first symptoms, not only for your own sake but to avoid spreading the disease to others—take a purgative, eat plenty of nourishing food, remain perfectly quiet and don't worry. Quinine, aspirin or Dover's Powder, etc., may I be administered by the physician's directions to relieve the aching.

EXTERN All APPLICATIONS In order to stimulate the lining of the air passages to throw oft the grip germs, to aid in loosening the phlegm and keeping the air pass ages open, thus making the breath ing easier, Vick's Vapoßub will be found effective. Hot, wet towels should be applied over the throat, chest and back between the shoul der blades to open the pores. Then Vapoßub should be rubbed in over the parts until the skin is red, spread on thickly and covered with two thicknesses of hot flannel cloths. Leave the clothing loose around the neck as the heat of the body liber ates the ingredients in the form of vapors. These vapors, inhaled with each breath, carry the medication directly to the parts affected. At the same time, Vapoßub is absorbed through and stimulates the skin, attracting the blood to the surface and thus aids In relieving the con gestion within. HOW TO AVOID THE DISEASE Evidence seems to prove that this is a germ disease, spread principally by human contact, chiefly through coughing, sneezing or spitting. So avoid persons having colds —which means avoiding crowds common drinking cups, roller towels, etc. Keep up your bodily strength by plenty of exercise in the open air, and good food. Above all, keep free from colds, as colds Irritate the lin ing of the air passages and render them much better breeding places for the germs. Use Vick's Vapoßub at the very first sign of a cold. For a head cold, melt a little in a spoon and the vapors, or better still, use Rub in a benzoin steam kettle. If this is not available, use an ordi nary teakettle. Fill half full of boiling water, put in half a teaspoon of Vapoßub from time to time keep the kettle just qlowly boiling, and inhale the steam arising. Note: —Vick's Vapoßub is the dis covery* of a North Carolina druggist, who found how to combine in salve form Menthol and Camphor with such essential oils as Eucalyptus, Thyme, Cubebs, <etc. so that when the salve is applied to the body heat these Ingredients are liberated in the form of vapors. Vapoßub is comparatively new in • New York, New England and a few western states, where it is just now being introduced. In other sections of the country, however, it is the standard home remedy In over a million homes for all forms of cold troubles —more than six millions jars were sold last year. It is particularly recommended for children's croup or colds, since it is externally applied, and, there fore, can be used as freely as de sired without the slightest harmful effects. Vapoßub can be had in three sizes, 30c, 60c, $1.20, at all druggists. .
