We will also be glad to mail to any individual one of these booklets, together with a quarter- ounce sample, free. HOW TO USE VAPORUB IN TREAT- vy ING SPANISH INFLUENZA In every case call a physician— VapoRub should only be used in con- nection with the physician's internal treatment. Apply hot, wet cloths over the throat chest and back between the shoulder blades to open the pores. Dry lightly and rub VapoRub well-in until the skin is red—spread on thickly » and cover with hot flannel cloths. Leave the bed covering loose around the neck, ag the body heat releases the ingredients in the form of vapors. These vapors, inhaled with each breath stimulate the lining of the air pas- sages to throw off the influenza erm. In case of head or chest cold, thé’vapors tend to keep the air pass- ages open, loosen the phlegm and } | | | | THREE MILLION} JARS SHIPPED DU “ING OCTOBER On Monday, October 21, we ad- dressed an advertisement to the wholesale and retail drug trade, advis- ing that we were badly oversold, duc to the influenza epidemic, stating that all deals and quantity shipments were ‘postponed, and requesting that Vapo- Rub be purchased in small lots only. This condition still prevails. At this writing we have back orders for eighteen thousand (18,000) gross and our orders each day are double our daily output. The.epidemic, how- ever, is descreasing in most sections, the demand is slacbening and we are working night and day to catch up. In the Jyeantime, we ask the trade to be patient with us. SEXORMOUS SHIPMENTS HAVE make we breathing easier. In addi- Tee Ty OTT Le: it nA ar tion, VapoRub is absorbed through WIPED OUT EXCESS STOCK and stimulates the skin, attracting jcannot be guessed at; On October 1st we had on hand at the factory and in twenty warehouses over the country a tremendous stock of VapoRub accumulated during the sum- mer months. This is now gone—we actually shipped during the month of October over three million jars of ‘VapoRub. We are speeding up our factory as much as possible and the problem now is to distribute the fac- tory’s output as quickly as possible. We have , therefore, for the time being, abandoned freight shipments and are ! shipping either by Parcel Post or ex-| press—trying to give each jobber at} least a little stock. IMMEDIATE SHIPMENTS TO DRUG- | GISTS IN INFLUENZA DISTRICTS | Preference is being given to those} sections stricken by influenza. In or- der to reach these sections as quit as can be, we are, during this emer- gency, making shipments by Parcel} Post, direct, to the retail trade, of not | more than three (3) dozen 30c size! in any one shipment. We prefer that the jobbers order these shipments for their trade, but to save time we will, if the need is urgent, ship direct on r ceipt of check or money order. Natur- the blood to the surface, and thus aids in relieving the congestion within. HOW TO USE VICK’S VAPORUB AS A PREVENTIVE ‘ It is questionable if there is any- thing which will prevent Spanish In- | fluenza, except avoiding those persons who are spreading the disease by} coughing, sneezing and spitting, and! by keeping up the bodily resistance | by plenty of good food and exercis: the open air. The Public Health Ser-| ice recommends that the nasal pas be coated with a weak solution j of Menthol in liquid petroleum as a protective. For this purpose Vapo-}| Rub is excellent. Just put a small} portion up each nostril from time to time during the day and snuff, well} back into the head. | KEEP FREE FROM COLDS BY IN- HALING VAPORUB | Colds irtitate the lining of the air | passages and thus render them a much better breeding place for the germs. | At the first signs of a cold use Vapo- Rub at once, Melt a little in a spoon and inhale the vapors arising, or j VapoRub can be used in a regular benzoin steam kettle, such as most Kidney Pills rid me of pains in my back and other symptoms of kidney complain.

Until then the war department will say nothing of its plans. British Transports to be Withdrawn. Large numbers of British ships were lused in transporting our army to Eu- jrope. These ships will revert to com- | mercial use and will not be available | for the return of our troops. It would be an utter impossibility |to find barracks in the United States {Tor 2,000,000 soldiers if they were all j brought back within a few months. | So it will be necessary to bring them | back in small detachments, which will ;be sent to the national army canton- ;Ments and regular army posts and ‘held there during a gradual process fof mustering out. It would never do ito turn all these men loose on the country at once; to do so would swamp the labor market, and the result would be that many of the soldiers would be idle for month This, in a very superficial way, is the basis of the program which the} war department is working out. There is another bitter pill for erican women to swallow who yearning to see their soldier boys. Not! all our boys will come back, even at-| ter demobi! d visions will be kept in Europe to oc-/ cupy that German and Austrian ter- ritory on which the allies are going to hold a mortgage until Germany's tre- mendous indemnity is paid. How many will be used for this purpose | undoubtedly there will be British and French units in the force, too. | But there will be no more fighting, no more trench warfare, no more of the horrors of actual warfare—and that will have to be our consolation | till the boys come home. KAISER BILL PROMINENT. IN . ° VICTORY FETE (Continu=1 From Page One.) forming a similar service for the con- ductor, was asked by a skeptical list: ener to state, “if she was so wise, when the war would end.” As our in- formant remembered her reply it was that, the war would end on the elev- enth hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month of the current year. Be that ag it-may, posterity may at- tach sonte significance to the fact that the Yanks and their allies over there fired their parting shot at the buns at exactly 11 a. m., Paris time, on November 11. For anyone who has ever :shot' the popular indoor sport kpown as “craps” “eleven” always ss possessed peculiar powers, Its magic is now vindicated in the minds of many by the fact that it has play- ed so important a part in the most stupendous of all world dramas. : To Kaiser's Funeral. William Dohn, the Broadway nieat man who has two sons in the service, closed bright and early Monday morn- ing. In the door of his shop he hung his white apron, upside down, and below it was pinned this legion: “GO- ING TO ATTEND THE FUNERAL OF THE KAISER.” Crowds Happy. Happy crowds filled the streets un- til midnight yesterday. All day long there were general and individual demonstrations. In the afternoon the feature was a big automobile demon- stration. During the evening hours the Bismarck - band serenaded the principal business bouses. The Liberty Siren. The Liberty siren of 1918 was sounded in Bismarck at 2:45 a. m., the exact hour at, which the news reach- ed Washington, by L. S. Pickering, night engineer at the Hughes Electric Co. power plant. Mr. Pickering,, in Bismarck and vicinity, assumes the same place in history as that held by the bellman who in Independence hall in 1776 pealed forth from the Lib- 5 Gs 5 s 3 il Any article that is endorsed at home tonnage. After the stuff lands in France its distribution is another big problem. The railroads have been jamu:ed with troops and equipment. Auto trucks would be the solution. But, only the other day, the army commandeered 43 nice large trucks that the Y. M. C. A. had bought: while on another , occ sion the purchasing ‘agent of the Y. M. C. A. informed the army that be had located 150 trucks and asked per- waission to buy them. “Fine work,55 said the army pur- chasing agent. “Certainly you CAN- NOT buy those 150 trucks. Exc me while I-go out and buy them for the army!” BRITAIN PLANS MUSTERING OUT FOR 8,000.00 Few Details of Demobilization' y Acid-Stomach Indigestion;Gas, Bloat, Heartburn, Caused — ‘ stomach. This will give the stomach a chance to digest the food properly; that is all you need; nature will do the rest. There is a quick, easy way to bring this about— u wonderful new discovery makes it possible to re- move excess acid without the slightest discomfort. It is called EATONIC, made in the form of tablets they are good to cat—just like a bit of candy. "Their action in the stomach is a good deal like a piece of blotting paper taking up a drop of ink— They literally absorb the injurious excess acid and carry it away through the intestines, They also drive the bloat out of the body—in fact you can What is the cause of indigestion, dyspepsia, bloat, heartburn, food-repeating, belching, gassy, sour stomach, and all the stomach miseries, that , bring so much distress? Just this—Acid-stomach —superacidity as the doctors call it. It robs mil- lions of their full strength, vitality and the. power to enjoy life—to be real men and women. Scientists have proved this but you do not need, to take their word; you can prove it in your own stomach, by getting rid of excess acid and find- ing out how much better you. will feel. Let your own stomach be the judge. It. will tell you the truth. Decide then according to your own feelings, Plans of United King- dom Announced | eee | BY HAROLD E, BECHTOL, London, England. | It is now possible to give, in gen-/ eral terms, a few features of the Brit-| ish demobilivation ‘plans, on authority ; of Dr. Addison, the minister of recon-! struction. | Long-service men and men with fa | milies will be mustered out first wher-} lever possible. { Demobilization will not be und | taken by military units, but larget j home and industrial requirement The government expects to aid dis- {charged men in finding work on aj; large scale.

Thig is a mat- ter that cannot be stated in the form of a cut and dried rule. Conditions as to proximity to market form the most important factor.
