Indianapolis May ' Be Faced With Grip Epidemic Local People Urged to Use Vigorous Measures to Combat Further Spread of Deep Grippy Colds. PNEUMONIA CHIEF DANGER Grippe Attacks Weaken Body’s Resistance to Germs of Pneumonia —Ail Colds Should be Treated Promptly. grippy colds have been unprevalent here this winter, situation Is fairly general throughout the State. In some sections these colds are called “Inuenza,” but the majority of health officers report that they are much milder than | the original epidemic and resemble more closely the oldfashioned la grippe. They are usually accompanied by a headache, burning eyeballs and aching scalp —and frequently by gastric and intestinal complications such as hiccoughs, nausea, diarrhea, etc. Colds are too often neglected until they have lowered the vitality sufficiently to permit the lurking germs, which cause pneumonia, bronchitis and intluenza to attack the body. Don’t Take Chances The only safe plan is to attack a cold right at the beginning. A hot bath, a laxative, a sweat and a vigorous application of Vick VapoRub at bedtime over throat and chest will often break up a cold over night. For hours after Vicks is applied the vapors of Camphor, Menthol, Eucalyptus; Thyme and Turpentine, released as vapors by the body heat, are Inhaled directly into the infected air passages. At the same time Vicks is absorbed through the skin and also stimulates it like a poultice or plaster. It is an obettnate cold indeed that can resist this direct, double action. * Vicks Vapor Steam the air passages are badly stopped up, tuy the “Teakettle and Tent” treatment. This method—fully explained in jhe directions—consists, briefly, of vaporizing Vicks in a teakettle and arranging a newspaper "tent’’ over the patient’s head so that the combined warm steanj and medicated vapors can be inhaled. Mothers especially appreciate Vicks for the frequent colds of children, as it can be used freely and often, without disturbing the digestion —you "just rub it on.” Over 17 mil Hon Jars are used yearly.—Advertisement^
