A Refreshing

Discovery

There is hardly a home in South Bend or hereabouts where one or more new pieces of furniture are not wanted. Sometimes an entirely new bedroom, dining room or living room set is needed. Sometimes it's a rug or two. However, there's the objection to spending the money right now. To the housewife (we prefer to say Home Maker) who does not buy now for the reason mentioned, it is indeed a refreshing discovery when she learns that she can turn in some of her used furniture as a liberal part payment on the new things. This arrangement is made through our Exchange Department (a separate business and entirely apart from our New furniture business). After you have assured yourself that the new things you want are in our stock, and the price to you is satisfactory, we send our Appraisal Man out to your home; he tells you how much we can allow for your used furniture that you want to get rid of and then you can accept or reject the offer without having placed yourself under any obligation whatever. If a deal is made the same truck that delivers your new furniture brings back your old. The latter is rennished and repaired, and then offered for sale in our Exchange Department, where it is bought by families who are glad to get it at the price we mark it. If we have not made this perfectly clear, drop in some time when you're by the store and we'll be glad to explain in detail.

This is No. 5 of a scries of advertisements, prepared by a competent physician, explaining how certain diseases which attack the air passages such as Pneumonia, Influenza, Whooping Cough, Measles or even a long continued Cold often leave these organs in an inflamed, congested state, thus affording a favorable foothold for invading germs. And how Vick's VapoRub mav be of value in this condition.

A cold is simply an. inflammatl0n cf mC Part f theuair saKcs throat, larynx or bronchial tubes just like a sore is an mflamrnation of the skin. A long continued cold means constant inflammation and this constant inflammation frequently weakens the air passages so that they iccome an easy point ot attack for invading germs of more serious $ scaseS.

One of the regulations which has aroused crit;ejrn provides that when a ur.iin or any craft or trade adopts

IH resolution that runs counter to or is considered to be detrintal to public interest or fails to I perform what i required of it by j the .administrative authorities, these i authorities may cancel the resolu tion or dissolve the union. Unions of various trades would be permitted to form a federation of unions only provided its rules and rrtrulations were submitted and approved by "the proper authorities." Heretofore. Japanese workmen have mostly been orcmized In t'ullds, although an Associated Iibor union was In existence in Tokio nearly a year aico. Supporters of the proposed law say the povernment mut take the place of the edd cruibl masters and advise and restrain the workmen until they shall have trainee! expedience in the operations of their unions. and relieve the cough. In addition, the medicinal ingredients of Vicks 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 Vicks should be rubbed in over the throat and chest until the skin is red then spread on thickly and covered with hot flannel cloths. Leave the clothing loose around the neck and the bed clothes arranged in the form of a funnel so the vapors arising may be freely inhaled. If the cough is annoying, swallow a small bit of Vicks the size of a pea . Samples to new users will be sent free on request to The Vick Chemical Company, 235 Broad Street, Greensboro, N. C.
