then we have distributed nearly twenty thou

Thus do we popuIarize our victorious plan of

We shall complete this distribution precisely
as planned, but when the limit of twenty

You like inanimate companions. well

your home-furnishings you avoid the tawdry
and the sham and choose those better

And that is why you have always admired
GENUINE cut glassware. But the prices in
retail stores have been so high that persons
of moderate means could afford only two or
three pieces, at most; whereas, here are eight.
cen perfectly matched pieces, every one of
them useful as well as beautiful; and the
price of the entire set is probably less than
you have paid for any single piece that you
may now have.

This week marks the start OF the

The need for more funds Is urgent
The war has taken away men and boys
who helped support their families.
Prices Of living necessities arc soaring
daily, and many women must now work
outside Of their homes In order 10 make
both ends meet.
These conditions bring an increased

The officers OF the hospital and day
nursery are working valiantly 10 meet
these conditions. and are now Offering
residents Of Wilmington an opportunity
to help them by merely Kidding their
homes Of things which would in an
probability finally find their way to
the trash heap
II is estimated that most Of the ar
tlcles used for are lying about useless
in the average home. They are Of little
or ne-value to the owners. but when
added to all the sO-called rubbish from
other homes Of the city, may be sold
for considerable sum- The sale will
be made in one large lot TO the highest

SPECIAL BOOKLETS ON SPANISH

We will send, on request, to any re-

giving the latest information about
this diseasc-its history-the symp-
toms-the treatment, and particularly
the use of vick's VapoRub as M ex-
ternal application to supplement the
physicians treatment.
NEW WAYS TO USE VAPoRUe.
In addition to the usual method Of
using VapoRub-that is, applied over
the throat md chest and covered with
hot flannel cloths-our customers are
writing us daily telling Of their sue
cess in using vapoRub in other ways,
particularly rs a preventive. They
melt n little in a spoon and inhale the
vapors arising, or melt 1t in q benzoin
steam kettle. Where the steam kettle
is not availnble, VapoRub can be used
in m ordinary teakettle. Fill the tea
kettle half full Of boiling water, put In
half a teaspoon of vapoRub from time
to time-kccp the kettle just slowly
boiling and inhale the steam arising.
According to a Bulletin just issued
by the Public Health Service, DR..
Stiles recommends that the nose and
throat be kept coated with some oily
substance. For this purpose VapoRub
lis eNccllent-just put a, little up the
nostrils from time to time and snuff
well back into the air passages.

This advertisement Is written on
Monday, October 21st. 1t is directed to
the attention of all distributors Of
Wck's VapoItub, both wholesale and
retail. In an emergency such as the
present epidemic-our duty-anl your
duty-is to distribute VapoRub in the
quickest possible I'M to those Sec
tions stricken by Influenza. We, there
fore, call your careful attention to the
following:
DANGER OF SHORTAGE If SUP.
PLY is NOT CONSERVED
On October LIST VIC had on han,i, ut
II Factory and in twenty warehouses
scattered Owe the country, sufficient
VapoIlub to last us, we thought, until
January LIST, allowing for n so per cent
increase over last years sales, and not
counting II daily output. This big
excess stock had been accumulated
during the summer months.
Then this epidemic of Spanish In
fluenza hit us-and in the last ten days
this stock has vanished. At first we
thought this tremendous demand
would last only a few days. but the
orders have run:
We'd, Oct. 16......1S.504 doz.
Thur, Oct. II. .....25, 1923 doz.
Fri, Oct, 1S...... 30,25G doz.
Sat-, Oct. 9......4 5,s33 doz.
Mon, Oct. 21......77,705 doz.
! Up to Saturday, October 10th, we
have actually shipped for this month
$4OO,2S4.1O, or over two million jars
of VapoRub.
THE PROBLEM NOW is TO DIS
TRIBUTE VAPoRUB QUICKLY.
Most of this tremendous quantity is
still en- route to the jobbers, bat
freight and express are both con-
gested nowadays, and 1t may be some
time before this supply reaches the
jobbers. In the meantime, therefore,
1t is necessary that we distribute, as
widely rs 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 quickly. Our
normal output is. about 1000 dozen
per day. We are putting on n night
shift, but 1t will be n little while be-
fore that is producing.

WAR AT HOME.

The City Beautiful club membest are planning a campaign for the eraq icatlon of the fly and the mosquito those carriers of typhoid, malaria and other diseases whose toll is greatef than war.
 There will hardly be any question as to the wisdom of the campaign, ncf need therefor. As usual, there wip be some hcmming and having becausf of tho cost.
 Nothing that is worth anything can be obtained for nothing. Anything of value requires effort or money t4 obtain it.
 We are beginning to place propef value on life and health as demon1 strated by our contributions to Red Cross and other relief work. But from our careless attitude toward con1 ditions at home we seem tc think more of life outside of Pine Bluff than of lives inside the city. This IS TdtiicI q puLHiiIlS dtlieuuC, DSSou"e it is in direct conflict with what is said to be the.first law of nature.
 There ought to be no hcsitancy iA prosecuting a campaign that will ric Pine Bluff of flies and mosquitoes making it a mere healthy and com- fortable place. Because whatever money is thus expended will be saved in increased production and doctors and undertagers' bills.
 The Graphic is with the City Beauti ful club in it's work, and hopes that the ladies will not be deterred by ob jections based on the cost. If Pine Bluff is worth living in, it is worth whatever the cost of a campaign to r.t it of mosquitoes and flies.
 If it isn't we ought to move an6 build a city elsewhere.

 Two thrift stamps will buy a pair of woolen gloves; four will buy two pairs of canvas leggings; six will buy five pairs of wooden socks or three suits of summer underwear and twelve thrift stamps will buy steel helmet.
 One war saving stamp will buy a hundred cartridges, a cartridge belt or scabbard for a bayonet; two will buy two pairs of woolen breech- es or two woolen shirts; two and a half, a gas mask and thus probably will save some soldiers life.
 Three war saving stamps mean soldiers overcoat or two woolen service coats for some boy at the front Three and one-half will buy three pairs of woolen blankets and four will buy rifle.
