BELGTANS POLITE
 EVEN IN DANGER

.Bruges, Dec. 23-The Belgians are the most polite people in the world. Recently seven correspondents travel ed to Audenarde. We were informed we might cross the Escaut and pro
 ceed in the direction of Ghent. AS our two automobiles came over the ridge before entering the town they were spotted by an eagle-eyed ob- server in the German lines and as we reached the entrance of the town and left from our cars preparing to enter on foot, a shell whizged over our | heads and exploded duly in a rain
 soaked field 50 yards beyond the oad. Another followed about the
 same distance short. Then they came
 so fast that I lost count. Gas shells l they were and we donned our masks, | and made for the cars.
 The lieutenant in charge of our | party bowed to the oldest correspond ! ent and bade him enter the car. The
 latter being Belgian in turn bowed 1 to his neighbor motioned him into
 the car. He demurred and then fol

DENY SENDING
 ANY MORE NOTES

Berlin, Sunday, Dec. 22.---By The Associated Press) Ut Is officially de- nied that the German government has continued to address notes exclusively to the United States after receiving the request of the Washington gov ernment that official communications from Berlin in future be forwarded simultaneously to all the hostile bel ligerents.
 Commenting upon the report re- ceived here that the American state department had declared the latest note from Germany was not published because 1t was evidently of a propa- gandistic character, the newspaper Vorwaerts says:
 "The harshness of this charge Is in- comprehensjble. It Is inconceivatble that the United States goes SD far as to expect that the people entirely in- nocent of starting the war and their new government will quietly crawl into a corner and expire

NOTICE RETAIL DRUGGISTS NO MORE VAPORUB DIRECT
 BUY II FROM YOUR JOBBER

sible for us to fill these promptly, and instead of distributing our goods 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 inn mediately, no more drop shipments will be made.
 While we have put on night shift and have, thereby about doNbled our production, we are still unable to fill our back orders and won't be able to give each jobber all the VapoRub he wants. Hence, it will be necessary for the jobbers to continue distribut- ing VapoRub in small lots only. But we will be able to 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 enaergency.

 Technical experts assert that Rus sian industry has been crippled for years to come by the Bolshevist re- gime.

Effective Immediately, No More Direct Shipments Will Be Made Retailers. All Shipments Now Go to Jobbers for Redistribu- tion.

When the influenza epidemic struck the country and wiped out our ware house and jobbers' stocks 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 prepaid, quantities of not more than three dozen VapoRub in any one ship ment, and by shipping what was left from our daily production to our job bers by express instead of freight.
 This was costly, but it solved the problem for the time perng. Now, however, we find that these small shipments are constantly increasing we have received as many as 1906 in a single mail. It is becoming impos-
