NEW WAYS TO USE vAPoRUB.

In addition to the usual method Of
using VapoRub-that is, applied over the
throat and chest and covered with hot
flannel cloths-our customers are writing
us daily, telling Of their success in using
VapoRub in other ways, particularly as
a preventive. They melt little in
spoon and inhale the vapors arising, or
melt it in benzoin steam kettle. Where
the steam kettle is not available, Vapo-
Rub can be used in an ordinary tea -ket-
tie. Fill the tea-kettle half full of boil.
ing water, put in half teaspoon OF
VapoRub from time to time-keep the
kettle just slowly boiling and inhale the
steam arising.
According to bulletin just issued by
the Public Health Service, DR.. Stiles, Of
this service, recommends that the nose
be kept creased as preventive measure
against the influenza germs. For this
purpose YapoRub is excellent.

DANGER OF SHORTAGE IF SUPPLY

factory and in twenty warehouses scat
tered ever the country, sufficient Yapo-
Rub to last us, we thought, until Janu-
AIRY LIST, allowing for so per cent in
crease over last years sales, and not
counting our daily output. This big ex-
cess stock had been accumulated during
the summer months.
Then this epidemic Of Spanish ihhuen-
"a hit us--and in the last 10 days this
stock has vanished. At first we thought
the tremendous demand would last only
a few days, but the orders have run:
Wednesday. Oct. l6-ls,504 doz.
Thursday, Oct, l7--25,323 doz.
Friday, Oct. ls-39,256 doz.
Saturday, Oct. l9-45S33 doz.
Monday, Oct 2l--77,705 doz.
Up TO Saturday, October 10th, we
have actually shipped for this month
S400, 2s4l0, or over two million jars of

THE PROBLEM NOW is TO DISTRIB-
UTE vAPoRUB QUICKLY.

Most of this tremendous quantity is
still enroute to the jobbers, but freight
and express are both congested nova
days, and it may be some time before
this supply reaches the jobbers. In the
meantime, therefore, it is necessary that
we distribute, as widely as possible, the
stock that we are manufacturing daily,
together with that now on the jobbers'
and retailers shelves, in order that 1t
may get to the influenza districts quick
ly. 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.

2nd-0rder from us in as small quanti-
ties as possible If you are out, we
will try TO ship limited amount
by parcel post or express, and pay
the charges ourselves.
3rd-In order to make distribution still
quicker, we will ship direct to your
retail customers quantities not more
than three 49, dozen 30c size at
any one shipment.
4th--We are now out of the Coo size and
will be for the next 10 days.
WHAT WE ASK THE RETAIL DRUG
GIST TO DO.
Buy in as small quantities as possible.
If you have any quantity orders, given
the jobber's salesmen or given to our
statesmen, don't bother about them-no
need to write us--it is absolutely impos-
sible to fill these orders at this time.
If the jobbers in your territory are out
of Vick's VapoRub, we viii ship you by
parcel post, prepaid, quantities not more
than three 81 dozen 30c size in any one
order. Naturally, we can't open accounts
at this time, SO your check or money or
der 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.

before the war.
"In those days" he declares, "a Wis
itor impressed by the great size of the
state war and navy building, stopped

and then he asked, "How many worF
here?"
"Not more than half Of EN-" the
Admiral says was the cynical reply.

most celebrated murder cases In the
annual of America was recalled today
by the modest bunch of flowers placed
on the grave of little Mary phagan
in one of the local cemeteries. II was
five years ago today that the little
Pragan girl was attacked and mur-
dered in the easements of a pencil
factory in this city where she had
been employed. Leo Frank, superin-
tendent Of the factory, was arrested,
and after one of the most celebrated
trials of recent years was convicted
of the murder and sentenced to death.
After the case had been carried to the
supreme court Of the United States in
an effort to save the life of the con-
victed man and the sentence was COM
muted to life Imprisonment by the
governor of Georgia. Shortly after
Frank had been moved to the peni-
tertiary, a mob of enraged citizens
stormed the prison. The next morning
the body Of Frank was found hanging
from a nearby tree in the nearby
country.

That Michigan Clty's Executive
/ Be Liberated

Washington, April 25.-Frederick c.
Miller, the German mayor of Michi-
gan City, Ind, was arrested and
locked up as an enemy alien when he
came here today TO discuss with fed
eral officials the prospects for COM
pleting his naturalization. He took out
first papers before the United States
went to war.
Enemy aliens are barred from the
District of Columbia by presidential
proclamation and any who venture
within the limits are subject to in
ternment. officials intimated, how
ever, that there was no disposition to
deal severely with Miller and that he
probably would be released and sent
cut of the district within a few days.
Miller became mayor of Michigan
City last January after a futile at
tempt in the federal courts to prevent
him from taking Office on the ground
that he was not citizen. Senators
Watson and New of Indiana, ap-
pealed to President Wilson to change
the regulations governing enemy
aliens so as to bar them from office.
