This condition is slow to clear up and if neglected may favor the de- velopment of pneumonia, or later on, serious disease of the lungs. Such cases should contirue under the care of their physician —should exercise moderately in the open air—eat plenty of whole- some food—avoid overwork and sudden chills. Nightly applications of Vick's VapoRub may help nature to complete the process of repair. Because Vicks acts locally by draw out the inflammation, at< tract the blood away from the congested spots and relieve the cough. In addition, the medici- nal ingredients of Vieks are vaporized by the body heat. These vapors are breathed in all night long, thus bringing the medication to bear directly upon the inflamed areas. & flannel cloths. Vicks should be rubbed pea.

PHONE 999 .| When the bell on the old town hall \|building . was striking ten Wednesday morning a fire alarm was sent in from The bell on the fire house and the town hall pell are so near the same tone that the result was a confusion of the alarm. The .fre apparatus, however, were driven ir “quick time to Railroad avenue, where the frame building utilized by Dutee Flint as an automobile repair shop was a mass of flame and the woole section bef by dense smoke from the fast burning building. In short order the firemen had four lines of hose battlis the tlaze. ‘The large wooden buildin? not ten feet from the burning structure, was smoking at the end and on the verge of bursting in- to flame. The lower part of this build- ing is occupied by the Picard Automo- bile company and the upper floor is the tenement of Walter Dove. The firemen made an excellent stop in saving ' this building, the only damage being the scorching of the end of the structure {nearest the fire, and the burning through | the corner of one of Mr. Dove's roems. The damage by fire is slight to this building and water-demage is Mr. Dove's only loss. The Flint repair shop building is 2 total loss. It was owned by Mrs. Albert L. Chester, and is insured. - There were seven cars in the shop when the fire started. Four of these were taken out to safety, while a truck belonging to Flint, and ready for delivery, and the automobile owned by Crist Ferraro, jit- neyman, were completely destroyed. Both cars were insured. The Ferraro car was rolled into the shop about -20 minutes before the fire. The origin of the blaze is not known pesitively, but in the opinion of one of the employes, was caused by a customer dropping a match on the floor after lighting a ci- gar. The fire started on the floor and rolled rapidly enveloping whateveT it came in contact with as it swept to- wards the rear of the building. The to- tal loss is estimated at $3500. The efficient work of the firemen de- served ‘all the praise bestowed by -the large erowd assembled. Chief Egger was on hand early and after directing the work on the burning building until the fire was well under . control, he mounted a ladder placed against the Pickard building and, axe in hand, made an investigation. He cut into the cor- ner of the building, just below the eave, ‘where smoke was issuing, and discov- ered a fire briskly burning and about to break through. He called for a fire ex- tinguisher and, aided by John Reardon. soon smothered that threatening blaze. Then all danger was over and the fire- men were ordered te “pick-up,” just one hour after the fire alarm was rung in.
