Four Great Problems
"The next Congress will serve
from March 4, 1919, to March 4,
1921. In that period:
First, the war must be fought to
unconditional surrender, unless this
is achieved before.
Second, the terms of world peace
must be settled.
Third, the Democratic admin
istration, after expending billions of
treasure and exercising more alb
solute power than any administra-
ton in our history, must give an
account OF it's stewardship.
Fourth. the change from war
conditions to peace must be brought
about with the least disturbance,
and the work of reconstruction must
be broadly begun.

much better qualified than one con-
tTNolled by Democrats, to aid the

DO MOTHERS ERR?

When We hear of so many school
girls and girls in stores and offices
who are often totally unfit to per-
form their daily duties because of
some arrangement peculiar to their
sex, might this not have been pre-
vented by the mother who, perhaps
through neglect or carelessness,
failed to get for that daughter the
one great root and herb remedy for
such ailments, Lydia e. Pinkham's S
Vegetable Compound? This old
fashioned medicine is said to have
alleviated more suffering of woman
kind than any other remedy known
to medicine.

DIRECT BY PARCEL
POST

This advertisement is written on
Monday, Q2tober 21. 1t is directed
to the attention of a!I distributors
of Vick's NapoRub, both wholesale
and retail. In an emergency such
as the present epidemic, our duty
and your duty-iS to distribute
VapoRub in the quickest possible
manner to those sections stricken by
Influenza. We, therefore, cali your
careful attention to the following:
DANGER OF SHORTAGE II SUP
PLY IS NOT CONSERVED
On October 1st we had on hand,
at our factory and in twenty ware
houses scattered over the country,
sufficient VapoRub to last us, we
thought, until January l. allowing
for a so per cent. increase over last
years sales, and not counting our
daily output. This big excess stock
had been accumulated during the
summer months.
Then this epidemic of Spanish In
fluenza hit us-and in the last ten
days this stock has vanished. At
first we thought this tremendous de-
mand would last only few days,
but the orders have run:
Wed. Oct. 16-1S,504 dozen.
OCIs 1t-GOVoEO uOZGn.
FRI, Oct. 1S-39,256 dozen.
Sat-. Oct. 19-45,S33 dozen.
Mon. Oct. 21-77,705 dozen.
Up to Saturday, October 18th,
we have actually shipped for this
month s400.2S4.10. or over two mil
lion Jars of VapoRub.
THE PROBLEM NOW is TO DIS
TRIBUTE VAPORUB QUICKLY
Most of this tremendous quantity
is still en- route to the jobbers, but
freight and express are both con-
some time before this supply reaches
the jobbers. In the meantime, there
fore. 1t is necessary that we distrib-
ute. as widely as possible, the stock
that we are manufacturing daily, to-
gether with that now on the jobbers'
and retailers shelves, in order that
1t may get to the Influenza districts
quickly. Our normal output is about
1000 dozen per day. We are putting
on a night shift, but II will be a
little while before that Is producing.
WHAT WE ASK THE WHOLESALE
DRUGGIST TO DO
Last Saturday we notified all Of
follows:
1st-Deals and quantity ship
ments of all kinds are cam
celled. Fill no quantity or
ders OF any kind, whether
taken by our statesmen or by
your own. Sell in small lots
only.
