| No to ee Druggists Price Advance For over a year now we have succeeded in maintaining our old prices, principally by virtue of a big increase in sales, which reduced our overhead cost. Four our fiscal year ending July 1, 1918. our sales amounted to over a million dollars—an increase of 58% over the preceding year. We had hoped to bridge the war period without a change in prices on Vick’s Vapoßub but we find that our economies do not keep pace with our rising costs. It is with sincere regret, therefore, that we are forced to announce an increase, effective August 1. which will make it necessary to retail Vapoßub at 30 , 60c and $1.20 The Vick Chemical Co.
