CURE FOR
PNEUMONIA
is now Epidemic!
The clipping reproduced herewith,
bearing the caption “Cure for Pneu
monia,” was received by mail a few
days ago from an unknown friend in
Timmonsville, who requested its
publication in these columns. In view
of the wide-spread epidemic of influ
enza, with the attendant peril of pneu
monia, the alleged cure is being pub
lished. The editor of The People-Sen
tinel cannot vouch for its infallibility
and it would be well to submit the
prescription to the family physician'
before administering the treatment,
which is as follows:
One Quart Red Onions
One Quart Vinegar
One Guart Corn Meal.
Cut, or break up the onions in aq>ot
with the vinegar; place on the fire;
when heated almost to boiling, stir
in the cornmeal. This will make two
poultices. Have ready two bags
made of thin material, large enough
to cover the region of the lungs.
Place one poultice over the region of
the lung affected. Hot—but not TOO
hot. Let remain 20 minutes, remove
and cover the chest with a warm
blanket or flannel. (If tjhe flannel is

apply the second poultice. Let it re

with the flannel as before. By this

great relief. Poultices should be kept
warm when not jr use. The applica

1- AS A PREVENTIVE
Several times a day, insert Vicks up the nostrils. Also melt
a little night and morning in a bowl of boiling water and
inhale the steaming medicated vapors. This helps to ward
off germ-infection.
2. IF A COLD STARTS
If possible, go home and go to bed. Take a laxative and a
hot lemonade. Apply hot, wet towels over throat and chest
until the skin is thoroughly reddened. Then rub vigorously
with Vicks. Spread on thickly and cover with warm flannel.
Leave the bed-covering loose, so that the vapors, released,
by the body-warmth, may be freely inhaled. At the same
time, Vicks also acts through the skin like a poultice.
Repeat this treatment every four hours, eat lightly, and stay
in bed until the cold is broken. Complete rest helps the body
throw off the cold more quickly.
3. AFTER A FLU ATTACK
Death of Mrs. J. A. Myrick.
Mrs. Mary Ann Snider Myrick died
at her home near Allendale Wednes
day morning, Jan. 2nd, after being
ill for several months. Interment took
place the following afternoon at Salt-
kehatchie church, the Rev. A. C. Ma
gee, of the Allendale Baptist church of
ficiating. Mrs. Myrick was 67 years
of age, and had lived most of her life
in the Allendale section, except sevral
years in the Mt. Olivet section of
Barnwell County.
Besides her husband, Joseph Allen
Myrick, she is survived by the fol
lowing children: Mrs, J. Frank Good-
son, of Wadley, Ga., MrsL Jesse
Mitcbum, of Kline, Percy and Allen
