DRUGGISTS STILL ASKED TO CONSERVE STOCKS OF VAPORUB NEEDED IN “FLU” DISTRICTS r ' I Influenza Epidemic is Decreasing in -Most Sections and the Demand is Slackening But M e Are Still, 18,000 Gross Behind on Orders and It Will Take Some Time to Catch Up. „

THREE MILLION JARS SHIPPED DURING OCTOBER On Monday, Oetobor 21. we addressed an advertisement to the wholesale and retail trade, advising that we w< re badly oversold, due to the influenza epidemic, stating that all deals and quantity shipments were postponed, and requesting that VapoRub be purchased in small lots only. This condition still prevails. At this writing we have back orders for eighteen thousand (18,000) gross and our orders each day are double our daily output. The epi deniic, however, is decreasing in most sections, the demand is slack ening and we are working night and day to catch up. In the meantime, we ask the trade to be patient with us. ENORMOUS SHIPMENTS HAVE WIPED OUT EXCESSIVE STOCKS. On October Ist we had on hand at the factory and in twenty warehouses over the country a tremendous stock of Vapoßub, accumulated during the summer months. This is now gone—we actually shipped during the month of October over three million jars of Vapoßub. We are speeding up our factory as much as possible and the problem now is to distribute the sac tory’s output as quickly as possible. We have, therefore, for the time be ing, abandoned freight shipmentsand are shipping either by parcel post or express trying to give to each jobber at least a little stock. IMMEDIATE SHIPMENT TO DRUGGISTS IN INFLUENZA DISTRICTS. Preference is being given to those sections stricken by influenza. lit order to reach these sections as quick ly as can be. we are. during this emergency, making shipments by parcel post, direct, to the retail trade, of not more than three (3) dozen 30c size in any one shipment. We prefer that the jobbers order these shipments for their trade, hut to save titfie we will, if the need is urgent, ship direct on receipt of check or money older. Naturally, no new accounts can be opened during this rush. SAMPLES AND INFLUENZA BOOKLETS FREE ON REQUEST. We have prepared a little folder giving all the information available so far on Spanish influenza—its origin—the symptoms and the treatment.

Two days out with a rough old sea. A more sea-sick bunch you couldn’t see. Starved and lousy on the sth day, Headed towards England miles away, Sailing in care of the England Jacks, Many wishing they were heeded back. ■CONVALESCENCE ’’Getting Better.’ is the most seri ous time for those who have had i grippe, influenza or other severe sickness. Something more than ordinary ; good food is required to build you up. A tonic is needed, and for this purpose doctors usually prescribe some form of iron, Nux Vimica,, Gentian, and Zinc Phosphide. The Iron especially is very essen tial but in most preparations it causes constipation In Dr. Chase's Blood and Nerve Tablets this is overcome, however, by the addition of Aloin to the other tonic remedies. As these tablets contain all of these essential tonics in any easily assimilated form they make a pleasant. safe and sure health restorer and of inestimable value at this time. Weigh yourself before taking and | watch the rapid progress of returning health. Dr. Chase’s Blood and Nerve Tab- J lets may be had at almost any drug-. gists at sixty cents a box. Special, strength ninety cents. adv MONEY - T OTd AN. Money to loan on farm property at s’/> per cent Interest, with privilege of paying loan off at any Interest pay Ing date, or any part thereof.

HOW TO USE VAPORUB IN TREATING SPANISH INFLUENZA. In every case call a physician — Vapoßub should be used only in connection with the physician's internal treatment. Apply hot, wet cloths over the throat, chest and back between the shoulder blades to open the pores. Dry lightly and rub VapoRub well in until the skin is redspread on thickly and cover with hot flannel cloths. Leave the bed-cover-ing loose around the neck, as the body heat releases the ingredients in the form of vapors. These va]>ors. inhaled with each breath, stimulate the lining of the air passages to throw off the influenza germs. In case of head or chest cold, which often ac-, companies influenza, the vapors tend | to keep the air passages open, loosen the phlegm and make the breathing easier. In addition. Vapoßub is . absorbed through and stimulates the I skin, attracting the blood to the stir-1 face, and thus aids in relieving the congestion within. HOW TO USE VICK’S VAPORUB AS A PREVENTIVE. It is questionable if there is anything which will prevent Spanish influenza. except avoiding those persons who are spreading the disease by coughing, sneezing ami spitting, and by keeping up the bodily resist- : ance by plenty of good food and exer- j cise in the open air. The Public Health Service recomends that the l nasal passages be coated with a weak solution of Menthol in liquid petro leum as a preventive. For this purpose Vapoßub is excellent. Just put a small portion up each nostril from time to time during the day and snuff' well back into the head. KEEP FREE FROM COLDS BY. INHALING VAPORUB. Colds irritate the lining of the air. passages and thus render them a : much better breeding place for the germs. At the first signs of a cold use Vapoßub at once. Melt a little in a spoon and inhale the vapors arising, or Vapoßub can be used in a regular benzoin steam kettle, such as most druggists carry in stock. It this is not available, a very good sub-1 stitute to use is an ordinary tea-1 kettle. Fill half-full of boiling water -put in half a teaspoon of Vapoßub from time to time —ke-p the kettle boiling slowly and inhale the steam arising.

I good, and a lot of other heifers, 2 or 3 good stock bulls, 10 or 12 good feeding steers, weighing from bw to 1,002 tbs.; 10 last spring's calves, a good kind.
