Avoid Influenza—Grip—Pneumonia How to Apply Vicks to Help Avoid These Infections How to Use Vicks in Case You Are Attacked . leading into pneumonia — have been unusually preva- lent this winter. Some authorities insist that they are a form of in- fluenza, not so virulent as the in- fluenza during the first epidemic, yee they are worse than ordinary colds. : Dim grippy colds—frequently Vicks As A Preventive. Most medical authorities now agree that these troubles are germ diseases — commonly spread by breathing in the germs. If the system is in good shape—the membrane of the , air passages in a healthy condition— these germs do not ordinarily breed. Keep a little Vicks rubbed up the nostrils at all times, particularly when exposed to crowds. At night melt Vicks in a spoon and inhale the vap- ors, or :better still, use Vicks in a teakettle as directed ‘below. This treatment helps to keep the air pass- ages in Xood condition. The Danger Is From Pneumonia. The chief danger lies in the devel- opment of pneumonia. What is need- ed therefore is something to decrease the congestion of the lungs. For this purpose there is nothing like a rube- facient or counter-irritant, as wit- ness the use of blisters, poultices and plasters for many generations. This irritation reddens the skin—draws the blood from the congested parts to the surface; the circulation is im- proved ; there is a_ sensation -of warmth and the possibility of pnet- monia is greatly lessened. “A “Quik” Rubefacient Needed. The value of this counter-irritant effect is greatly increased if it is pro- duced quickly. Nearly every family has its favorite method—onion poul- tices, turpentine stupess mustard plasters and poultices fof various kinds—all are good. A very simple method is to apply towels wrung out. in hot water; as hot as the patient can stand. This not only reddens the skin quickly, but also opens the pores so that more Vicks can be absorbed. Some, how- ever, prefer to use an ordinary mus- tard plaster, as the reddening effect last¢ longer. Get Skin Thoroughly Red. Whatever method is used, the\ap- plication should be applied over the throat and chest until the skin is- thoroughly reddened. In very deep colds, the sides and especially the back from the middle of the shoulder blades to a point just above the waist, should also be treated. The patient should be given a good purgative and, if convenient, a hot mustard footbath for ten minutes—- one tablespoon of mustard to a gal- lon of water. - Then Massage With Vicks. 3 After the skin is thoroughly red- dened, it should be dried lightly and immediately the -patient should be given a brisk massage with Vicks all over the parts. Continue this for five minutes. This increases the counter- irritant effect. Then apply Vicks thickly over all the parts; that is, spread it on as you would a poultice— about one-sixteenth of an inch thick or more—and cover with two thick- nesses of hot flannel cloths. Vicks’'Double Action. Thus applied Vicks has a double action. -First, Vicks is so made that the body heat, gradually releases the ingredients in the form of vapors. The more Vicks applied, the stronger will be the vapors and the longer these vapors will last. The night clothing should always be loose around the neck and the bed clothes ar- ranged in the form of a funnel. These vapors being lighter than air, rise up from the chest and, if the bed clothing is “properly arranged, pass by the nose and mouth and are thus in- haled with each breath, cartying the zhedication directly thru the air ( passages to the lungs. vic VaepoRus The second action of Vicks is ex- ternal—by absorption thru and stim- ulation of the skin. Repeat Treatment: . When the vapors begin to lose their strength, fresh Vicks should be ap- plied over the throat and Chest. Th to keep up the continuous supply of vapors. When the redness of the skin dies out, all the Vicks remaining should be wiped off and the entire trdatment repeated. That is, the hot wet towels or mustard plasters should be used until the skin is again thor- oughly reddened, then massage with Vicks, spread on thickly and cover with hot flannels, just as previously done. Steam and Vapor Method. Sometimes when the patient is badly choked up, the vapors from the application on the chest are not suf-~ ficient to make the breathing easier. In these cases drop a tablespoonful of Vicks into a kettle of boiling water and allow the patient to inhale the warm steam and vapors combined for about 10 minutes. Do this several times a day if needed. Keep the wa- ter boiling and put in additional Vicks whenever the vapors decrease. Put a sheet over the patient and the tea-kettle, making a kind of a tent. ‘ Take no chances with these grippy colds. Remember, Vicks must be used freely to be effective—and al- ways call a doctor. 2 Over 17 Muon Jars Useo Yearty S ~ the DIRECT treatment ABSORBED as a liniment INHALED @s a vapor World famed as author of “The Great Impersona- tion,” “Mr. Grex of Monte Carlo” and other mystery novels, has written his masterpiece, an. enthralling series of detective stories comparable to “Sherlock Holmes” at its best. 4 “Exploits of Sir Norman.
