Inflamed Air Passages Make
Ideal Breeding Grounds
for Flu Germs.
j Flu This Year is Milder
While we know very Hitle more
, about the flu than we did last year
-.the germ Itself has never been posi
tively identified still most authorities
agree that the flu germs are breathed
I in. If the system is in good shape and
the nicmbrHne or lining of the air pas-1
sages is in healthy condition these
germs are thrown off
A good plan is to melt a little Vick's
VnpoRub in a spoon night and morn
ing, and inhale the vapors, also apply
a litile up the nostrils several times
a day. especially just before being ex
posed to crowds.
Treat All Colds Promptly
Above all, keep free from colds, as
colds irritate the lining of the air pas
sages and make them real breeding
grounds for germs. Prompt use of
Vick's Yapoliub aids in preventing
colds. Tor head cdUIf, sore throat or
hoarseness, rub Vicks well over the
throat and chest and cover with a
warm flannel cloth. For deep chest j
colds, severe sore throat or bronchitis,
lint u ol tnwolo clmiilil fircl ho r nnl lofl
to the throat, chest and back between
the shoulder blades to open the pores.
Then Vicks should be rubbed in over
the parts until ae skin is red spread
on thickly and covered with two thick
nesses of hot flannel cloths. Leave the
clothing loose around the neck, so the
vapors, released by the body heat, may
be freely inhaled.
These vapors, inhaled with each
breath, carry the medication directly
to the lungs and air passages. At the
same time Vicks is absorbed through
and stimulates the Jcin, thus aiding
to relieve the congestion within.
Ucc of External Treatment for Colds
Increasing
Vick's VapoRub in the discovery of
a North Carolina druggist who found
how to combine in Salve form, the
standard time tested remedies, Cam
phor ?.ienthol Eucalyptus
Thyme, etc. so thai, when the salve
is applied to the body heat, these in
gredients are liberated in the form of
vapors.
Vicks is particularly recommended
for children's croup or colds, since it
is extornally applied and therefore can
be used ireely and often without the
slightest harmful effects.
The best evidence of the value of
Vicks is the steadily increasing num
ber of people who have been convert
ed to the use of this "outside" treat
ment. Beginning with the customers of a
small retail drug store,- 'the use of
Vicks has grown year by year state
until now more than 17 million jars
are used annually. And this in spite
of the fact that Vicks is a new form of
treatment to many folks in the north
and west. Vickts can be had at all
druggists in throe sizes 30c, GOc or

HOUSEWIVES TAKING
TO THEIR OWN WORK
No phase of the changing era has
so affected the intimate lire of people
even where as the disappearance or
evaluation of the domestic servant.
A decade ago a very modest house
hold kept its maid and every country
recognized a definite "class" which
supplied those unenviable posts. Thc
dui les of the domestic were varied and
arduous. Housemaids' Knee is mere
ly d synonym for floor scrubbing and
other tasks which, however near to
, godliness, are depressing enougn on
the Individual concerned.
' Then the factories and shops took
the uomestics; they became, like eggs.
1 rave and costly; and today it Is qultt
jas much an international problem how
I to revive the supply of domestic serv
jants as it is how properly to make
j the Italians and the Jugoslavs love one
I another.
The American people may do well.,
however, to note that it is not at all
necessary to the national progress that
the supply of domestics ever again
should exceed the demand The1'; was
a good contributory reason to the van
ishing of the domestic, in that the por
I rentage of men and women who by ac
tual choice prefer menial duties Is re
ally small.
What had happened was this: every
household, able to afford to do ao.
tranoferred the most unpleasant part
of Jts duties to some other porson who
waj not so well off. What has hap
pened Is this: every household unabl.
to obtain "help" has discovered chat It
is not Impossible to do things for
Itself, and the mombers of the house
hold are themselves performing va
rious duties formorly relegated to tho
housemaid.
But more than anything else, what
is bringing a reasonable solution to
tho whole problem is modern invention
which is taking tho sting out of al
household work by efficient, time and
energy saving devices.
These increase in number and effec
tiveness yearly, and It does not necm
too much to say that a household with
.modern devices will find domestic help
willing to share the actual burden of
housekeeping which remains nocfissarj
to human hands, with the unpleasant
back-breaking, humiliating drudgery
practically removed.
Tho housewife has been obliged to
recognize that complete escapement
from the more unpleasant duties Is 1m
poasiblc, and society generally has per
ceived at last that the idea of a "serv
ant class" always was unfair. Inven
tion has stepped between the two, so
ciety and the "help," and made recon
ciliation possible.

Dorothy Dix Talks ji
! HOW TO BREAK OFF A MATCH 1 1
MJyJJOROTllY DIX, the World's Highest Paid Woman Writer U
I
j A woman writes me thr.t her daugh-
j ter is in love with a man of whom
she highly disapproves, and she wants
to know how she can break off the
'match, for the-girl is determined to
i marry her unsuitable suitor,
t Of course the only reliable method
of preventing an undesirable marriage
lis to forestall cupid, and prevent young
i people from falling in love with the
j wrong parties It's a case where an
i ounce of prevention is worth a pound
jof cure, and if parents' foresight was
lonly as good as their hindsight in
sentimental matters, they could save
themselves and their children many
heartaches. ,
Quarantine Your Home
Quarantine your house as rigidly
against beautiful girls, and fascinating ;
young men that you do not. wish yourj
sons ond daughters, to marry as you',
would against small pox. Keep your
young people as far. as possible from!
associating with those whom you
-U3m;p put! suos su juuooioav iou pino.-A'
lers-in-law. Follow these rules, and)
you are reasonably safe from having'
to interfere inyouiu.childrfln's love af-j
fair's.
But there are times when all rules
I tail, and all precautios are in vain, and j
when faters and mothers are forced
to nip some youthful fancy in the bud
to save their children from the folly
of wrecking ihulr lives by making dis
astrous marriages.
The great difficulty about doing tlsis
is that when boys and girls are in love,
or think they are in love, , lliey arc
temporarily insane and beyond the
reach ol reason. They cannot bo ar
gued with because they have lost all
judgment, and all perspective on life.
They may admit that the argument you
advance against their marrying' the in
dividuals they want to marry would be
cogent in other cases, but they are
convinced that their own cases are ex
ceptions. John will agree that for an educat
ed, cultivated gentleman to marry a
frowsy, illiterate 'woman is to court
misfortune, but he is sure that in his
case marriage will immediately turn
a coarsclv nrettv servant cirl into an
accomplished woman of the world
Mary may agree that for any other
girl to marry a drunkard and a roue
with hectic past is sure to end in dis
aster, but she is certain her marriage
to such a one will bring her nothing
but domestic bliss.
Love Thrives on Difficulties
A still further difficulty is that love
thrives on difficulties, and there Is no
surer way to make a match than to
oppose it, and in their anxiety, and
their panic at the danger that threat
ens their beloved chtld. parents are
nearly always betrayed Into the fatal
step of asserting their authority, and
forbidden the bans which precipitates
the calamity they dread.
if, therefore, you wish to break off
a match never openly oppose it, for
that puts the youngsters backs up and
makes them determined to assert their
Independence, and show that they are
not children to be dictated to. Neither
be guilty of the folly of continually
harping upon .the unaeIred sweet
heart's shortcomings. This makes the
lover rush to the defense of the girl of
whom he is enamoured, and not only
marshall her every charm and
good quality, but manufactures addi-
tional ones to justify his choice ffi!
Many Ways to Choke Love w
There are, however, many ways of J$j
choking a cat except upon butter. You jft
will recall that the wily old Major Eft
Pendennis, when called upon to break ?r
off the match between his nephew and j
a fascinating but blowsy actress, mur- ja
mured as lie read over her letters ft
' Ah, yes, lovely creature, lovely crea- rj.
lure. Adores you. I see she spells j
'affection' with one 'f, lovely creature,
levely creature." y
But that one "f" did for Aruthur
jwhat all his mother's tears and en- a
treaties and prayers had not been able K
I to do. ' cf
Mother Outwits Son W
A certain mother, whose young son
imagined himself in love with a ei; &
'common girl, wa3 agha&ted when the Ki
boy announced lib choice of a wifi '
She did not bat an eye, hwever. when 1 pg
he delivered the blow. that dashed all r
I of her hopes for him to the ground.
I "Whatever is for your happiness, is jj
I for mine," she said. Bring Willabellt g
' tt stay with us at once." Joyously the V
jboy .brought -Wllbbella, but prudent &
mother had filled the house witfh the' B
most beautiful and charming young M
girls of her acquaintance, and when b
the boy saw Willabelhi against this K
background instead of hei: own, the'
scales fell from his eyes and he was( D
disenchanted. i r
He perceived whaL no argument
could have conviced himn of. that he
would be eternally ashamed of her, j g
that they had nothing In common, that E
!he did not belong to his world She
did not i von know how to hold her,
fork, or eat soup. Still less how to Li
dress, or talk like a gentlewoman. And jv
'Willabella was as bored as the boy,
and glad enough to return to her own
I kind. j I
Overdose For Young Girls t
Another mother, who has saved sev ' R
eral of her children from making fool- g
ish marriages, claims that there is no K
other such euro for love sickness as
giving the couple an overdose of each Jf
other's society. Especially in hot wca- g
ther. She avers that three. days of tin- .
interrupted talking will break up an n
match. i (
Still another mother, whose daugh-' h
ter was fascinated by an undesirable! 'i
suitor, brought her batteries to bear
upon the man instead of the girl. ;
Mother Disillusions Suitor '.
"It is such a comfort to me to think' j
of Maud marrying a man who will g
cherish her as I'm sure you will," rao' j
ther confided to him "for Maud isn't at
all strong, and couldn't possibly attend,
much to the housekeeping, or worry
over the prices of things as so many 1 .
men expect their wives to do, and it
would be quite out of the question for'
her to do such a thing as cook.
"In fact she doesn't know the first J I
thing about any housework, or sew- A

afraid I have rathor spoiled her by ,il- fl
ways letting her have her breakfast In P

awful, but I know you will want to 1
