TWO HOMES DESTROYED
BY FIRE AT BLACKVILLE
Blackyille, January 5.—Blackville
waa again visited by Are early Thurs
day morning when the home of Wade
Grubbs, on Dexter Street, and the ad
joining home of W. W. Cain were
destroyed. Mr. and Mrs. Grubbs were
spending the night with the latter's
father, J. A. Hartzog, about seven
miles from Blackville. None of the
household goods in the GrubbsTiome
was spved. Everything was removed
from the home of Mr. Cain, including
the electric light fixtures.
For a time it seemed that the en
tire street was in danger, but due to
the efforts of those who served as
firemen the flames were checked.
Blackville has suffered a loss in the
removal of one of its most artistic
homes and great regret is felt by all.

The influenza epidemic which broke
out late in October on the Pacific
coast has spread with startling rapid
ity until now practically every sec
tion of the country is affected.
Although the flu itself is not so
serious as in 1918, authorities stress
the importance of taking every pos
sible precaution for fear of the com
plications which invade the weakened
system after a flu attack.
They urge especially prompt treat
ment of every cold, as colds lower the
body resistance and make it easier
for germs of flu or pneumonia to get
a foothold.
That the public is heeding this
warning is indicated by the phenome
nal demand for Vicks Vapo-Rub, the
famous external treatment which
leaped to fame almost overnight dur
ing the 1918 epidemic.
In spite of tripled capacity, the
Vicks laboratories are once more
operating night and dsy to meet the
emergency, and more than 432,000
jar# are now being produced everjr
24 hours.
