DRUGGISTS! PLEASE, NOTE
V|Ck'S VAP0RUB 0VERS0LD
Due T0~PRESENT EPIDEMIC
Tremendous Demand Last Few Days Has Wiped Out
Excess Stocks That We Had Estimated Would Last
Until Next January. Last Weeks Orders Called for
One and Three Quarter Million Jars-Today's Or
ders Alone Amount to 932, 459 Jars.

2nd-Order from us in as small
quantities as possible. II
you are out we will try to
ship limited amount by Par
eel Post or Express, and pay
the charges ourselves.
3rd-In order to make distribution
still quicker, we will ship d.
rect to your retail customers
quantities not more than three
(3) dozen soc size at any one
shipment.
4th-We are now out Of the 60c
size and will be for the next
10 days.
WHAT WE ASK THE RETAIL
DRUGGIST TO DO.
Buy in as small quantities as pos
sible. If you have any quantity
orders, given the jobbers' statesmen
or given to our statesmen, don't
bother about them--no need to
write us-it is absolutely impossible
to fill these orders at this time.
If the jobbers in your territory are
out of Vick's VapoRub, we will ship
you by Parcel Post, prepaid, guam
titles not more than three (3) dozen
soc size in any one order. Natur-
ally, we don't open accounts at this
time, so your check or money order
for this amount must accompany
order. Don't write US stating to
ship through your jobber, as we
then have to wait until we write
this jobber and get his o. K. II
you wish the goods to come through
your jobber, have him order them
for you.
SHOWED UNDER WITH COR.
RESPONDENCE.
Our force has already been "shot
to pieces"-twenty-four of our men
are wearing Uncle Sans khaki
and this recent rush has simply
buried US. All our sales force has
been called in to help in the office
and factory. We just mention this
so you won't hold it against us if
your wires and letters aren't
answered promptly.
SPECIAL BOOKLETS ON INFLU.
ENZA.
We will send, on request, to any
retail druggist, 100 or more little
booklets, just issued, on Spanish In
fluenza, giving the latest informa-
ton about this disease-its history
the symptoms-the treatment,
and particularly the use of Vick's
VapoRub as an external application
to supplement the physicians treat
ment.
NEW WAYS TO USE VAPORUB.
In addition to the usual method
of using VapoRub-that is, applied
over the throat and chest and COW
cred with hot flannel cloths-our
customers are writing US daily tell
ing of their success in using Vapo-
Rub in other ways, particularly as
a preventive. They melt a little
in a spoon and inhale the vapors
arising, or melt in a benzoin steam
kettle. Where the steam kettle is
not available, VapoRub can be used
in an ordinary tea-kettle. Fill the
tea-kettle half full of boiling water,
put in half teaspoon Of VapoRuh
from time to time-keep the kettle
just slowly boiling and inhale the
steam arising.
According to a Bulletin lust
issued by the Public Health Service,
DR.. Stiles, of this service, recon-
mends that the nose be kept CREASED
as a preventive measure against
the Influenza germs. For this pur.
pose VapoRub is excellent.

Count Michael Karolyi. who Is
demanding the independence OF
Hungary, is a member of the Hun
garian lower house and a former
president of the Hungarian indie
pendence party. He is we'll known
in America, having visited several
cities of the United States early
in 1914 in the interests of free rule
for Hungary and in advocacy OF a
Hungarian home parliament. He
abandoned his American tour, ow-
ing to the Serbian crisis, returning
to Europe in July, 1914. Some
months later he caused sensation
in the Hungarian parliament by de-
handing that the government
should make peace proposals to the
entente allies. This move he fol-
lowed uP\in July, 1916, by organic
ing a new party to demand imme-
date peace between Hungary and
its enemies, with or without the
consent of Germany and Austria.

What About Those Rifles?

Omaha, Oct 28.-To the Editor of
The Bee: I have been curious to
know whether the matter of John
H Morehead and those government
rifles has ever been satisfactorily
explained. AS I recall 1t, the rifles
belonged to the national govern
ment and were loaned in some in
stances to German societies in this
state. Didn't Governor Neville say
that the rifles had been loaned to
high school cadets? l have been
watching for the names Of the high
schools. We voters want to keep
our history on straight, and I am
here to remark that before More
head asks for votes to send him to
the United States senate. and Ne
vile seeks reelection, they should
explain just what happened to those
rifles. DOX BOX NO. 2.

Big Shipments Are En- Route
to Jobbers. Until These
Arrive There May Be a
Temporary Shortage. All
Deals Postpone d-Buy in
Small Lots Only.
Retailers Can Get Immediate
Shipments Direct By
Parcel Post.

This advertisement is written on
Monday, October 21st. 1t is directed
to the attention of all distributors
of Vick's VapoRub, 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, call
your careful attention to the fol-
following:
DANGER OF SHORTAGE If SUP.
PLY is NOT CONSERVED.
On October list we had on hand,
at our Factory and twenty ware
houses scattered over the country,
sufficient VapoRub to last US, we
thought, until January list, allowing
for a 500 increase over last years
sales, and not counting our daily
output. This big excess stock had
been accumulated during the sum-
mer months.
Then this epidemic Of Spanish In
fluenza hit us-and in the last 10
days this stock has vanished. At
first we thought this tremendous
demand would last only few days,
but the orders have run:

Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1918-11-01

Up to Saturday, October 10th,
we have actually shipped for this
month $400,284.10, or over two
million jars of VapoRub.
THE PROBLEM NOW IS TO
DISTRIBUTE VAPORUB
QUICKLY.
Most of this tremendous guam
tity is still en- route to the jobbers,
but freight and express are both
congested nowadays, and it may be
some time before this supply
reaches the jobbers. In the mean
time, therefore, it is necessary that
we distribute, as widely as possible,
the stock that we are manufactur-
ing daily, together with that now
on the jobbers' and retailers
shelves, in order that it may get to
the Influenza districts quickly.
Our normal output is about 1000
dozen per day. We are putting on
a night shift, but it will be little
while before that is producing.
WHAT WE ASK THE WHOLE.
SALE DRUGGIST TO DO.
Last Saturday we notified all of
our jobbers, by Special Delivery, as
follows:
1st-Deals and quantity shipments
of all kinds are cancelled Fill
no quantity orders of any
kind, whether taken by our
statesmen or by your own. Sell
in small lots only.
