With the coming of cold weather thére is apt to be a return of this frightful épi- demic and its seriousness will depend on the extent of the precautions, taken by the public, to prevent in- fection. When the air is full of influenza germs, you may be constantly breath- ing them into your nose and throat. But their danger may be avoided and you may make yourself practically immune to Infection if you destroy the germ before it actually begins work in your blood. During the re¢ent serious epidemic, which hit New Britain so hard, most successful results wero obtained by many through the simple breathing into the nose, throat and lungs of the medicated air .of oil of Hyomei. Prob- ably no better, safer or more sensi Were ple precaution against influenza, Grippe, Coughs, Colds, Bronchitis or Catarrh of the nose and throat could be emploved than -to go now to the nearest drug store and get a complete Hyomei outfit consisting of a bottle of the pure Oil of Hyomei and a little vestpocket hard rubber inhaling de- vice into which a few drops of the oil are poured. Carry this Inhaler with you during the day and each half hour or so put #t in your mouth and draw deep breaths of its pure healing germieidal air into the passages of your nose, throat and lungs to destroy any germs that may have found lodgment there. This simple precaution may save you a serious illhess and the loss of several weeks work. It is pleasant to use and not at all expensive as the inhaler will last a liferime and fur- ! ther supplies of the Oil of Hyomel can be had at any drug store for a few cents. Hundreds of people in this vicinity used Hyomei in this way during the recent crisis and avoided danger. They should not neglect it now for the danger is by no means over. Amsterdam, Nov. 20 (Correspon- | dence of The Associated Press.)—The ' | attempt of officers of the Gemman ‘West Metropolis. Chicago, Dec. 20.—Chicago, repre- sentative of the Middle West, to which suicidal the world has looked for its provi- sions, has had a great share in vice tualing peoples and armies during the four years of the war, and in that pe- ‘riod an enormous amount of provi- sions has passed through the Chicago Zateway. With the 1918 shipments there has been shipped from Chicago more than 40,000,000 tons of cereals, In tHe same period the meat ship- ments, according to the Drovers' Trade Journal, including cured, canned and fresh meats, amounted to more than 6,000,000 tons. Fats, including lard, butter and cheese, totalled more than 1,800,000 tons, In addition to grains, meats and fats, 20,415,000 bushels of potatoes were handled out of Chicago, and 5,973,891 live hogs, 3,587,415 head of cattle and 4,166,570 sheep ' shipped. Prior to the spring of 1917 the usual agencies of trade conducted the dis- tribution of the vast quantities of foodstuffs sent out of Chicago and contracts for provisions were made by foreign governments direct with the dealers in Chicago. With the entrance of Ameriea into the war, the food ad- ministration, through its various branches, took over the handling of provisions in quantity and the distri- bution was conducted under govern- high seas fleet to make a sortie against the British grand fleet before the armistice was signed is appointed chief of the bureau of nav- full little figure at the climactic mo- | SR e ¢ most thrillng ! o fespair.
