DRUGGISTS! WCK,S YAPORUB
 SHORTAGE OVERCOME AT LAST
A TREMENDOUS JOB TO INCREASE
 OUR PRODUCTION

In this emergency we tried to do our part. We secured tine country for raw materials-our Traffic Manager spent his days riding freight cars in-we shipped raw materials in carload lots by express and pleaded with manufae- turers to increase their deliveries to us.
 But it was a slow process. Some of oH raw materials are produced only in Japan-supplieS in this country were low and shipments required three months to come from the Far East. Then we had to recruit and train skilled labor. We brought our sales, men into the factory and trained them. as foremen. We invented new ma- chlnery, and managed to install 1t on Christmas Day, so as not to interfere with our daily production.
 143 JARS OF VAPoRUB EVERY
 MINUTE DAY AND NIGHT
 By January 1st we had everything ready to put on our night shift, and since then our laboratory has been running day and night To feed our automatic machines, which drop out one hundred and forty-three jars of Vap0Rub a minute or one million and eighty thousand weekly, has required force Of 300 people. Our Cafe De partment. created for the benefit of these workers, served 1000 meals dur Ing the month of January alone. f3 MILLION JARS OF VAPoRUB
 DISTRIBUTED SINCE OCTOBER.
 An idea of the work we have ac- complished this fall may be given by our production figures-13, ,028,97d Jars of VapoRub manufactured and distributed since last October-one Jar for every two families in the entire United States.
 During the influenza epidemic Vick's VapoRub was used as an external ap plcation in connection with the physi. cian's treatment, and thousands of peo- pie, unable to obtain a doctor, relied on Vick's almost exclusively.
 Literally millions of families all oye1 the country, from Cali.

The Deal Scheduled for Last November, Which Was Post poned CT Account of the Influ- enza Epidemic, Is Now Re-in- stated - Good During the Month of March.
OVER ONE MILLION JARS OF VAPORUB PRODUCED
 EACH WEEK

It is with pride that we announce to the drug trade that the shortage of Yick's VapoRub, which has lasted since last October, is now overcome. Since January 1st, We have been running our laboratory twenty-three and a half hours out of every twenty-four. Last week we shipped the last of our back orders, and retail druggists, therefore, are no longer requested to order in small quantities only.
 NOVEMBER DEAL RE-INsTATED
 This deal, which we had expected to put on last November and which had to be postponed on account Of the short age of VapoRub, is re-instated for the month of March. This allows a dis count of 10% on shipments from job bers' stock of quantities of from 1 to 4 gross. 596 of this discount is allowed by the jobber and 5qo by us.
 We advise the retail druggists to place their orders immediately, so that the jobbers will be able to get prompt shipments to them.

THANKS OF THE PUBLIC DUE THE DRUG TRADE DURING THE
 INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC.

The thanks of the American public are certainly due the entire drug trade retail, wholesale and manufacturing flor what they accomplished during the recent influenza epidemic. The war caused a shortage of physicians nurses were almost impossible to ob- tafn-the demand on the drug trade was unexpected and overwhelming, and to this demand they responded nobly. Retail druggists kept open day and night and slept where they drop ped behind the prescription counter. Wholesale druggists called their sales men off the road to help fill orders hundreds wired us to ship Vick's vapo- Rub by the quickest route, regardless of expense.
