STATE IN WINTER, Returns from Miami with Mrs. Waters Where They Spent | the Winter | | Mr, and Mrs. J. R. Waters of the Rose apartments have returned from Miami and other Florida points where; they snent several weeks this win-j ter. This is the second trin Mx ox] Mrs. Waters have made to Florida and they are more enthusiastic about the state than ever before. | While in Florida, Mr. Waters spent! dor in Minneapolis hotels. He began gambling and gambling engrossed him more and more,.he said. His money began going fast. On April 20 Pero was arrested in a poo! room, charged with carrying con- cealed weapons. He was playing for money, police said, and had ‘a revol- ver on his person. His companions had said he was armed. Pleads Guilty Pero appeared before Judge Bard- well in district court this morning, and pleaded guilty to the charge of carrying concealed weapons. His at- ‘orney asked that he be put on proba- tion, but Judge Bardwell said, since he lived in Wisconsin, that was not possible, “What about a little fine? Can't he pay that” asked the judge. Penniless “On January 1, I had’ $9,000,” Pero After Whooping Cough—What? This is No. 4 of a scries of advertisements, prepared by a com- petent physician, explaining how certain diseases which attack the air passages—such as Pneumonia, Influenza, Whooping Cough, Measles or even a long continued Cold—often leave these organs in an inflamed, oongested state, thus affording a favorable foothold for invading germs. And how Vick’s Vapo- Rub may be of value in this condition. Whooping cough is the “‘mean- est” disease that childhood is heir to. While rarely fatal in itself, except to children under two years of age, still it hangs on so long—the coughing paroxysms are so violent, preventing proper sleep and digestion—that when the disease does disappear it leaves the child weakened and run down. In addition the violent coughing racks and strains the air passages and after re- covery this irritation frequently remains. During this period of conval- escence the child should be most carefully ‘watched until full strength is restored and the air passages regain their normal tone. A prominent authority even goes so far as to say—‘‘There is more criminal neglect in connection with whooping cough than with any other disease.” While the disease is active, Vick’s VapoRub usually helps to lessen the violence of the cough- ing, but it is during conval- escence that Vicks is most val- uable. Because Vicks acts locally by stimulation thru the skin to a1-20 VapoRub Aguas Colds More Than 17 Million draw out the inflammation, at- tract the blood away from the congested spots and relieve the cough. In addition the medicinal ingredients of Vicks are vapor- ized by the body heat. These vapors are breathed in all night long, thus bringing the medication to bear directly upon the inflamed areas. Vicks should be rubbed in over the throat and chest until the skin is red—then spread on thickly and covered with hot flannel cloths. Leave the cloth- ing loose around the neck and the bed clothes arranged in the form of a funnel so the vapors arising may be freely inhaled. If the cough is annoying swallow a small bit the size of a pea. Children’s digestions are deli- cate—easily disturbed by too much “dosing.” Vicks, there- fore, is particularly recommended, since it is externally applied and so can be used often and freelv without the slightest harmful effects. ‘ Samples to new users will be sent free on request to the Vick Chemical Company, 234 Broad Street, Greensboro, N.C.

MAJOR BAKER SAYS DIAMOND T LARGE TRUCKS ARE BEST Returns from Third Trip to Giant Factory; Has New Yarn to Tell Frayne Baker of the Baker-Toppins Co. returned Thursday from a trip to the Diamond T Motor truck factory. Among other things he discovered was the remarkable fact that Gary, Indiana, only had bredd fer breakfast on the Monday following Easter, because of the indomitable courage of a driver and the extraor- dinary durability of a Diamond T truck.

This is the third trip to the factory to get the best line-up pos- sible for the Bismarck territory and to insure prompt delivery of their many trucks waiting on order. The Diamond T on account of the wonderful organization is one of the few factories that have not shut down because of strike conditions. During their fifteen years of activity they have learned the lesson of suc- cessful operation and are therefore fortified against tieups. ELTINGE THEATRE “The Silver Horde,” the new Gold- wyn offering which will be shown at the Eltinge Theatre beginning to- day is a glowing tribute to the abil- ity of the author, Rex Beach. It is an Eminent Authors productioh, and meets the high standard for pictures set by this brand. Most of the action revolves about the parts played by Myrtle Stedman, kobert McKim, Betty Blythe, Curtis Cooksey and Frederick Stanton, play- ers popular with lovers of the screen, who put many thrills and a great deal of romance into the fight waged by the trust interests against the inde- pendent faction for a monopoly of the salmon canning industry in Alaska. Rex Beach journeyed to the ‘North- west with Director Frank Lloyd and the cast for the exterior scenes made in that location, and rendered much assistance in keeping the action real- istic and in harmony with his visuali- zation of the story he wrote.
