DRUGGISTS STILL ASKED T 9 CONSERVE STOCKS OF VAPORUB NEEDED IN "FLU” DISTRICTS t Influenza Epidemic is Decreasing in Most Sections and the Demand is Slackening But We Are Still, 18,000 n Gross Behind on Orders and It Will Take Some Time to Catch Up.

B — ' THREE MILLION JARS J SHIPPED DURING ' OCTOBER j, On Monday, October 21. we address ... ed an advertisement to the wholesale j and retail trade, advising that we j were badly oversold, due to the inI fluenza epidemic, stating that all 1 deals and quantity shipments were p postponed, and requesting that Vapos Rub be purchased in small lots only - This condition still prevails t At this writing we have back orders for eighteen thousand (18,000) gross and our orders each day are ' double our daily output. The epidemic. however, is decreasing in most sections, the demand is slackening and we are working night and J 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's tremendous stock 1 of Vapoßub, accumulated during the I 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 factory’s output as quickly as possible j . We have, therefore, for the time be ing. abandoned freight shipmentsand are shipping either by jiarcel 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 thoso sections stricken by influenza. in order to reach these sections as quickly 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. Wo prefer that the jobbers order these shipments for their trade, but to save time we will, if the need is urgent, ship direct on receipt of check or money order. Naturally, no new accounts can I 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,

and these will be forwarded to druggists on request. We will also be glad to mail to any individual one of these booklet/, together with a quarterounce sample, free. HOW TO USE VAPORUB IN TREATING SPANISH INFLUENZA. In every case call a physician— Vapoßub should be used only in connection witli 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 red — spread 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 vapors int haled with each breath, stimulate the lining of the air passages to throw J off the influenza germs In case of head or chest cold, which often acn companies influenza, the vapors tend to keep the air passages open, loosE en the phlegm and make the breathing easier. In addition, Vapoßub is ! absorbed through and stimulates tha

skin, attracting the blood to the surface. 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 and spitting, i and by keeping up the bodily resistance by plenty of gr>od food and exer ' else in, the open air. The Public Health Service recomends that the nasal passages be coated with a weak solution of Menthol in liquid petroI leum as a preventive. For this purpose Vapoßub is excellent. Just put a small portion up each nostril from lime 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 stitute to use is an ordinary tea kettle. Fill half full of boiling water —put in half a teaspoon of Vapoßub from time to time—-keep the kettle boiling slowly and inhale the steam arising.
