lief she experienced, Mrs. Benj. Shepard, 27 spruce St., Danville, Pa., writes "I have used your Vick's VapoRub Salve, and would not he without it in my house. I have tried it for spasmodic croup and it acted like a charm. My little girl breathed easier in about ten minutes after I rubbed her throat and c hest with Vapoliub. and she went to sleep and never woke until morning.
