Still greater strides were made in Kuropo and Australia where there nr.-; few thickly populated centers that do not h'ad of regular aerial forrunorcl.il traffic, cither hy airplane or dirlcrlble, or hotth. The delay in the development of aeronautics in this country was .attributed by the Manufacturers Aircraft association today to "the failure of the I'nited states government to establish landing fields, enact regulatory i-q-i!atifn and adopt any fixed policy. Inspired by the aircraft manufacturers, chambers of commcrre in at b ast T O Ith s have undertaken to provide municipal landing fields for Jil'craft, built on specified lines a.s plotted by city planners and officials of the army air service, whb h hu -a.sjmrd unoffic i rx I supervision over the project, pending the adoption of federal regulatory legislation.

"Then does that mean you will not consider revision of the actual taxation features of the law?" was asked. " don't think there will b time durinp this session of congress to consider the actual taxation features of the law." he replied. "The

He pointed out that it had become an opportunity for proJiteerinp, for hiph prices and for an extreme burden both upon the corsumer and the business man. As a war measure, it mipht be defended, he said, but as a peace me.asure no defense of it could be mode. In 10 months, the hous way and means committee has piven consideration to a few small tariff hills which, under any ordinary rule, would not havo required more than three or four months of actual work.

Southern Mothers Have Found a Way to Treat Children's Croup and Colds Without Internal Dosing ALL mothers everywhere know that chil--tA-dren's stomachs are delicate and their digestions easily disturbed, and therefore they should be given as little internal dosing as possible. Yet croup and colds come often and certainly cannot be neglected.

A North Carolina Druggist Solves the Problem Thanks to Lunsford Richardson, a druggist in Greensboro, N. C, this problem has been solved, and Southern mothers have been given a method of treating cold troubles externally. Mr. Richardson discovered a salve that would vaporize by the body heat when applied over throat and chest. These vapors, inhaled with each breath, carried the medication through the air passages to the lungs, at the same time the calve was absorbed thru and stimulated the skin, attracting the blood to the surface air thus aiding the vapors inhaled to relieve the trouble. This preparation Mr. Richardson called Vick'i VapoRub. Vicks contains no harmful drugs, just the old-fashioned, time -tested remedies Menthol, Camphor, Thymol, Eucalyptus, Turpentine, etc. combined in a new-fashioned way.

The Use of Vicks Has Steadily Increased Starting with the customers of Mr. Richardson's retail drug store, the sale of this external treatment has grown, county by county, state by state, until now Vicks can be found in almost any drug store in all sections of the United States. Mothers who once use Vicks always keep a bottle on hand thereafter. It is so easily applied, so quick in its effects, and, best of all, can be used as often and as freely as desired, without fear of harmful results.

DIRECTIONS FOR THE USE OF VICKS Vapors Important For there troubles a

ytt' large part cf the value of Vicks lies in " its vaporizing qualities. So vhenevrr

Vicks is applied over the threat srul chest, care should be taken to leave the clcthing loose sreund the neck ar.d the bed clothes arranged in the fcrm cf a funnel, so that the vapors arising may be freely inhaled. Hot Wet Cloths In cases of deep chest colds, severe sore thro2t or incipient pneumonia, hot, wet towels should be u.ed over the throat end chest to open the pores of the skin before applying Vicks. For Head Colds, Asthma, Catarrh, 1 1 y Fever Vicks can be melted in a spc-ori and the vapors inhaled, cr a little should be applied up the nostrils and snuffed up the head.

Now Over 17 Million Jars Are Used Yearly The best evidence of the value of Vicks is the increasing number of families who, each year, are converted to the use of this real "Little Body

guard in the Home.'

The number of jars used annually for the last few years is: 1910 347,748 Jars 1911 523,152 Jars 1912 1,027,068 Jars

. 1,357,590 Jars . 1,462,330 Jars . 2,418,213 Jars . 4,302,764 Jars . 6,799,511 Jars .17,377,408 Jars

For Spasmodic Croup, Children's Colds Rub Vicks over the throat and chest until the difficult breathing is relieved, then spread on thickly and cover with a hot fi.mnel clcth. An application at brd time usually prevents a night attack of croup. Vicks is particularly recommended for children's colds since it is externally applied, and can, therefore, be used often and freely without disturbing the youngters' d licate digestions. For Deep Chest Colds, Sere Thrott, Tonsilitis, Bronchitis, Couihs or any affection of the respiratory organs where there is tightness or soreness, Vicks should be applied over the throat and chert if necessary, first usinR hot wet cloths and rubbed in well until the skin is red; then spread on thickly and covered with one cr two thicknesses of hot flannel cloths. If the cough is annoying, a small piece the sire of a pea csn be swallowed every few hours. Minor Ailments In addition to its use for Cold Troubles, Vicks has been found excellent cs a f alve, liniment or plaster for trrviblrs such es Bites, Burns, Ilchings, Scrcneis, Sunburn.
