M. C. who filled their gallery and part of the south transept, the men of the R.C.H.A. In their gallery, and the congregation, amongst whom were many Queen's students, sing "Nearer My God To Thee," led by the male choir and the cathedral organ- ist, who is a past-master in the art of leading congregational singing.

McDougall, Box 665, Re- gent St., North Sydney, Nova Scotia, writes: "I had a bad cold in my head. I tried many remedies, but had no relief until I used Vicks. It is also the best salve I ever used for a cold in the chest. Put some Vicks Vapo- Rub on your chest, cover with a flannel and you have a sure remedy For a cold in the head, melt a little VapoRub, and inhale the vapors. In a short time your cold will be "one." Vicks VapoRub is an externally applied vaporizing salve. While it acts like a liniment or plaster, it is also inhaled as a vapor and so gets into the throat and lungs immedi- ately... The cold is often broken up overnight. Vicks is the modern direct treat- ment for all cold troubles, the suc- cessor to goose grease, camphorated oll, liniments, poultices and plasters Used for croup and children's colds, Vicks gives remarkably quick results and also avoids nauseating in- ternal dosing. Just as good for adults and for skin inflammations, such as cuts, burns, bruises, bites, stings. At all drug stores 50c. a jar.
