NOTICE RETAIL DRUGGISTS
NO more vAPORUb DIRECT
bUYITFROM YOUR JOBBER

more quickly, they are really slowing
up the process.
We believe that we can serve you
better now by reverting to our for
mer policy Of shipping exclusively
through the jobber, and. effective i'm
mediately. no more drop shipments
will be made.
While We have put on a night shift
and have, thereby about doubled our
production. we are still unable to All
our back orders and won't be able TO
give each jobber all the VapoRub no
wants. Hence. it will be necessary
for the Jobbers to continue distribute
ing VapoRub in small lots only. But
we will he able - furnish each job
Der at least twice the quantity OF Va
poRub that he purchased for the cor
responding month last year. SO there
should not be any difficulty in your
getting Your pro rata share.
We feel that the public appreciates
the service that the retail and whole
sale drug trade have rendered the
country in this time of stress. We
wish to express to both branches OF
the trade our thanks for the kind CO.
operation extended us in our efforts
to meet this emergency.

UNEMPLOYMENT NEAR
FOR IDLE MILL WORKERS

Charles S. Hichhorn Of this city,
the director for Maine of the United
States Employment Service. has been
keeping close tabs on the effect Of
war contract cancellations on local
labor conditions in the State. The
government departments Immediately
at the close of hOstilities realized the
entire injustice to industry ana labor
that would be occasioned by whole
sale Withdrawals Of contracts. and
arranged TO secure through the ma
tion-wide intelligence facilities of the
United States Employment Service
weekly reports of labor supply and
conditions.
From over 100 industrial centers
throughout the country these reports
are transmitted. Maine being repre-
scented in the group by Portland.
Cancellations In Maine to date
have principally affected the textile
industry, but from information COM
piled tn Director Hichborn's Office.
the labor that is now idle will be re
employed within q few weeks. as
most of the cotton and wooden mills
expect TO start up again on CONNER
cial work by the first of February.

Effective Immediately. No
More Direct Shipments Will
Be Made Retailers. All
Shipments Now Go to job
bers for Redistribution.

When the influenza epidemic struck
the country and wiped out our ware
house and jobbers' stock almost over
night, we were faced with the prob
lem of distributing-to the stricken
districts-in the quickest possible
manner-our daily output of Vapo-
Rub. We solved this by Offering to
ship direct to the retailers in these
influenza districts, by parcel post pre-
paid, quantities Of not more than
three dozen VapoRub in any one
shipment, and by shipping what was
left from our daily production to our
jobbers by express instead of freight.
This was costly, but it solved the
problem for the time being. Now,
however we find that these mail
shipments are constantly increasing
we have received as many as 1906
in a single mail. 1t is becoming i'm
possible for US to fill these promptly.
