ECZEMA

Aug. 15. "For some time I suf
fered frightfully from eczema on my
legs. From my knees down they were
covered with scales, and itched and
burned as though hot coals were rest
ing on them. I would scratch until
the blood came, and was unable to
sleep at night. Nothing that 1 tried
helped me, until a druggist recom
mended Resinol Ointment. Ater ap
plying it once, I enjoyed the first good
night's sleep I had had in weeks.
Now I am sound and well after us

Ointment, to which I give the whole
credit". (Signed) F. B. Price, 414

SALTS IF BACKACHY
AND KIDNEYS HURT
Dr'nk lots of water and stop eating
meat for a while if your
Bladder troubles you.
When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
;t generally means you have been eat
Lner too much meat, says a well
known authority. Meat forms uric
acid which overworks the kidneys in
their effort to filter it from 'the blood
and they become sort of paralyzed
and logxy. When your kidneys get
sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels;
removing all the body's urinous waste,
else you have backache, sick head
ache, dizzy spells; your stomach
sours, tongue is coated, and when the
weather is bad you have rheumatic
twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of
sediment, channels often get sore,
water scalds and you are obliged to
seek relief two or three times dur
ing the night.
Either consult a good. reliable
physician at once or get from your
pharmacist about four ounces of .Tad
Salts; take a tablespoonf ul in a glass
of water before breakfast for a few
days and your kidneys will then aet
fine. This famous salts is made frmn
the acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithla, and Juts been
used for generations to clean and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to
neutralize acids in tne urine so it no
longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is a life saver for regular
.meat eaters. It is inexpensive, can
not injure and makes a delightful, ef
fervescent lithia-water drink.
Hartford, Oct. 9. 'Connecticut op
poses any peaco treaty with Ger
many and her vassals "unless preced
ed by an unconditional surrender" as
being "ajjainst the interests of Ameri
ca and her allies and against an en
during and a just peaice."
This expression of the fighting
spirit of all Connecticut is contained
in a resolution passed by the Connec
ticut State Council of Defense, tele
graphed last night by the Council to
the President of the United States,
and sent to memfoers of the cabinet.
the Connecticut delegation in congress
and to all other state defense councils.
The resolution, drawn by Justice
George W. Wheeler of Bridgeport,
was passed unanimously by the coun
cil. In passing it, members of the
council believed that they were ex
pressing the spirit of the entire state
of Connecticut.
The peace stand of Connecticut, as
interpreted by the council's resolution
is:
No consideration of peace until Ger
many and her vassals are thoroughly
beaten and her far-reaching plan of
world domination destroyed.
No peace negotiations, conciliations
or bargaining.
No ipeace until Germany is- stripped
of the territory she has wrested from
other nations.
No peace treaty that does not re
quire that Germany make reparation
for the damages and losses she has
caused, and compels her to give ade
quate assurances for the future.
No armistice while a soldier of Ger
many is beyond the German borders,
nor while a single strbmarine is fight
ing against the ships of 'the Allies.
The Resolution.
The complete text of the resolution
follows:
"Resolved, That the Connecticut
Council of Defense heartily rejoices in
the unparalleled achievements of the
Allies. Bulgaria has unconditionally
surrendered. Turkey is cut off from
the Central Powers. The right wing
of f.e Austrian Army is fleeing from
Serbia. Its left wing is being steadily
pressed out of Albania and Monte
negro. The Italian drive is on the
way. From the North Sea, south all
along the Western Front the allies are
steadily driving Germany and her vas
sals out of Belgium and France. On
September 9th, in resolutions then
passed by the Council, we said. We
wait with confidence the day when
the American troops, under their own
commanders, shall execute their or
ders and carry on a battle uipon their
own pector.' They will emulate the
valor and military skill of our Allies,
and we cannot ask for more. Three
days later General Pershin;? struck at
the St. Mihiel salient and the Ameri
can forces Avon in an incredi'bly short
time one of the most brilliant victories
of the war. The valor of our troops
had been demonstrated at Seiieheprey
and in every conflict in which they
have been engaged since.
'ISt. Mihiel told the world that the
American general could conceive a
plan of battle which is the admira
tion of military experts, prepare it to
its last detail and cany it out ahead
of schedule time, successful at every
point.
"All of this continued, triumphant
progress is due in no small measure
to the unity of command under that
master of strategy and self control
Marshal Foch.
"Germany is resisting desperately.
As she is forced back she leaves be
hind her a waste of desolation and
woe. No single thing that their
trained and ruthless cruelty could
conceive of has been omitted. Her
cruelty continues on land and sea.
Every industry which could comipete
with Germany is destroyed. All that
she can do to despoil Belgium and
France that she continues to do.
"Germany is organizing her indus
try and her business so that after the
war she may flood the markets of the
world with her goods at a cheaper
rate than any can sell for. Her in
dustry and her business have largely
'been put under Governmental control
Her mercantile marine and her fleet
are largely intact. Her present pur-
' pose is to secure an economic domin- I
ion upon which to build another
world-dominion war. Neither the
German Government, nor the German
people show the slightest appreciation
of their crimes, nor the smallest, desire
to make reparation. They finally see
that, their doom is impending, and
they ask directly or through their vas
sals that we enter upon negotiations
for peace, "For an honorable peace,'
as William proclaims. meaning a
peace which will not strip the Father
land of all the land it has seized, or
the plunder its troops have taken, nor
make her pay for the losses she has
caused to the innocent whoever her
troops have gone.
'"Resolved, That in the opinion of
the Council there should be no peaco
vassals are thoroughly beaten, and her
far-reaching plan of world-dominion
destroyed. We are opposed to any
peaco by negotiation, conciliation, or
bargaining.
"Germany must be stripped, of all
the territory she has won and her
grip on territory, nations and people
adjoining her must be loosed. The
safety of the world depends upon this.
"Justice demands from Germany
and the German people and her vas
sals, and Connecticut insists upon Hint
demand, thai they make re pa ro I .ion
for the dam ages and looses caused by
them, and (hat they bo compelled to

NO OCCASION FOR PANIC.
Spanish influenza, which apperaed
in Spain in May, has all the appear
ance of grip or la grippe, which has
swept over the world in numerous
epidemics as far back as history runs.
Hippocrates refers to an epidemic in.
412 B. C. which is regarded by many
to have been influenza. Every cen
tury has had its attacks. Beginning
with 1831, this country has had five
epidemics, th last in 1S89-9 0.
There is no occasion for panic
influenza itself has a very low per
centage of fatalities not over one
death out of every four hundred cases,
according to the N. C. Board of Health
The chief danger lies in complica
tions arising, attacking principally,
patients in a run down condition
those who don't go to bed soon
enough, or those who get up
early.
THE SYMPTOMS.
Grippe, or influenza as it is
called, usually begins with a
followed by aching, feverishness and
sometimes nausea and dizziness, and
a general feeling of weakness and
depression. The temperature is from
100 to 104, and the fever usually
lasts from three to live days. The
germs attack the mucuous membrane,
or lining of the air passages nose,
throat and bronchial tubes there is
usually a hard cough, especially bad
at night, often times a sore throat
or tonsilitis, and frequently all the
appearances of a severe head cold.
THE TREATMENT.
Go to bed at the first symptoms,
not only for your own sake but to
avoid spreading the disease to others
take a purgative, eat plenty of
nourishing food, remain perfectly
quiet and don't worry. Quinine,
aspirin or Dover's Powder, etc., may
be administered by the physician's
directions to relieve the aching. But
there is no cure or specific for in- !
fluenza the disease must run its j
course, but nature will throw off the !
attack if only you keep up your
strength. The chief danger lies in
the complications which may arise.
Influenza so weakens the bodily re
sistance that there is danger of
pneumonia or bronchitis developing,
and sometimes inflammation of the
middle ear, or heart affections. F"nr
these reasons, it 4 very important
that the patient remain in bed until
his strength returns stay in bed at
least two days or more after the
fever has left you, or if you are over
50 or not strong, stay in bed four
days or more, according to the sever
ity of the attack.
EXTERN A I i APPLICATION S.
In order to stimulate the lining of
the air passages to throw off the
grippe germs, to aid in loosening the
phlegm and keeping the air passages
open, thus making t,he breathing
easier Vick's VapoRub will be found
effective. Hot, wet towels should be
applied over the throat, chest and
back between the shoulder blades to
open the pores. Then VapoRub
should be rubbed in over the parts
until the skin is red, spread on thick
ly and covered with two thicknesses
of hot flannel cloths. Leave the
clothing loose around the neck as the
heat of the body liberates the ingred
ients in the form of vapors. These
vapors, inhaled with each breath,
carry the medication directly to the
parts affected. At the same time
VapoRub is absorbed through and
stimulates the skin, attracting the
blood to the surface, and thus aids
in relieving the congestion within.
MOW TO AVOID THE DISEASE.
Evidence seems to prove that
this is a germ disease, spread
principally by human contact, chiefly
through coughing, sneezing or spit
ting. So avoid persons having colds
which means avoiding crowds
common drinking cups, roller towe s,
etc. Keep up your bodily strength
by plenty of exercise in the open air,
and good food. Above all, keep free
from colds, as colds irritate the lin
ing of the air passages and render
them much better breeding places for
the germs.
Use Cick's VapoRub at the very
first sign of a cold. For a head cold,
melt a little VapoRub in a spoon and
inhale the vapors, or better still, use
VapoRub in a benzoin steam kettle.
If this is not available,,
use an ordinary tea kettle.
Fill half full of boiling water, put in
half a teaspoon of VapoRub from
time to time keep the kettle
just slowly boiling and inhale the
steam arising.
NOTE.
Vick's VapoRub is the discovery of
a North Carolina druggist, who found
how to combine, in salve form, Men
thol and Camphor with such volatile
oils as Eucalytus, Thyme, Cubebs,
etc., so that when the salve is ap
plied to the body heat, these ingredi
ents are liberated in the form of
vapors.
VapoRub is comparatively new in
New York State and New England
and a few Western states where it is
just, now being introduced, but in the
other sections of the country it is the
standard home remedy in over a mil
lion homes for all forms of cold
troubles. Over six million jars werfe
sold last year. It. is particularly
recommended for children's croup or
colds, since it is externally applied
and therefore can be used as freely
as desired without the slightest harm
ful effects. VapoRub can be had in
three sizes at all druggists'.
tice while a soldier of Germany is
without the 'bounds of Germany as
they were at the outbreak of the war,
and while a single submarine is op
erating against the ships of the Al
lies. "Resolved. That the making of a
peace treaty with Germany and her
vassals at this time unless preceded by
an unconditional surrender, is against
the interests of lAmerica and her al
lies and against an enduring and a
just peace."
