The formula was perfected By Pro
lessor Robert c. wilson, head OF the
department Of pharmacy OF one Of the
leading educational Institutions OF the
country. and is composed Of the most
powerful antiseDtics and germicides
known to science. All that is neces-
sary is TO inhale the vapors from a
few drops on the handkerchief The
odor, although very penetrating, IS not
unpleasant, and has very soOtnlng
effect on the respiratory organs
On account of Professor wilson
high standing as a man Of learning,
thousands Of people in his home city
began using the preparation as soon
as it became known that he had per-
fected the formula without any adver-
Using whatever. In only a few days
time the nearby towns and cities be-
gan clamoring for it, and Professor
Wilson was forced TO begin its man
ufacture upon an extensive scale
Professor Wilson first made the
preparation TO use in his own family
and gave a small quantity Of it to one
Of his neighbors. The neighbor told
others and in only a short time the
news spread rapidly over the city. On
the third day alone one retail drug
gist sold over five hundred bottles.
Leading physicians, specialists and
bacteriolOgists give the preparation
their unqualified Endorsement and are
recommending it TO their patients.

which contains information that appears almost paradoxical. This railroad com pany laid down in 1917 12,0OO tons of new steel rails which were of the best quality the steel rail manufacturers could pro- duce. These rails took the place of other rails which were old, some of them aI- most worn out. and which had. as pre- sumed, only scrap heap value. Neverthe- less. this scrap iron fetched in the mar ket little over S32.0o0 more than the high quality new steel rails cost. The unusual situation is explained by the fact that the wise management of this railroad some years ago, at time when the price of steel rails was low, invested some part of the earnings in a purchase of 12,000 tons. If those new rails had been laid down at that time the scrap rails when sold would not have com manded price sufficient to pay for the new rails. Now, however. scrap iron is scarce and the demand for it is very great. For that reason the market price of it has appreciated so that the Lack -.wana Railroad company was able t
 make profit of s32,o0o by substituting
