A TREMENDOUS JOB TO INCREASE
OUR PRODUCTION

OUR PRODUCTION
In this emergency we tried to do our
part. We secured the 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 manufac-
turers to increase their deliveries to us.
But it was a slow process. Some of
our 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
chinery, and managed to install it on
Christmas Day, so as not to interfere
with our daily production.
14s JARS OF VAPoRUB EVERY
MINUTE DAY AND NIGHT
By January LIST 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
VapoRub a minute or one million and
eighty thousand weekly, has required
a force OF SEQ people. Our Cafe De-
partment, created for the benefit of
these workers, served 1000 meals dur
ing the month of January alone.
13 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, 02S,976
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 APP
plication in connection with the physi-
clans treatment. and thousandssof peo-
pie, unable to obtain a doctor, relied
on Vick's almost exclusively.
Literally millions of families all over
the country, from Cali
fornia to Maine, and -
from the Great Lakes Uabo%f
to the Gulf, have found KS

OVER ONE MILLION JARS
OF VAPORUB PRODUCED
EACH WEEK

1t is with pride that we announce
to the drug trade that the shortage of
Vick's VapoRub, which has lasted since
last October, is now overcome. Since
January LIST, 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 YapoRub, is re-instated for the
month Of March. This allows a dis
count OF 1917 on shipments from job
bers' stock of quantities Of from 1 to
4 gross. so OF this discount is allowed
by the jobber and so 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
for what they accomplished during
the recent influenza epidemic. The
war caused a shortage of physicians
nurses were almost impossible to OBJ
tain-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.

WEALTH FOUND IN RUINS
valuabIes In SheII-Torn
Areas Of France.

Professionalism troops who have
been working In the shell-tcrn areas
OF France have been recovering
many valuables of various sorts buried
in the ruins. All these finds are
turned over to the French ministry of
finance, which is ~endeavoring to dis
cover the original oil their
heirs. All unclaimed treasures 60 TO
the state.
Members Of the American Second
army corps recently unearthed at
Avoucourt a large number of French
and Russian railway bonds which had
lain In the cellar Of a demolished
home since the Germans first invaded
the sector. The bonds were all In
good condition and bore coupons
which had not been clipped since July,
1914. Whether the owner is dead or
alive will be determined by the min
istry.
Among the valuables recovered are
many belonging to ruined churches.
Not infreQuently when several
churches In a town have been de-
stroyed and each of them has lost
similar treasures 1t is impossible to
say who Is the owner OF the wealth
recovered. In this cas- 1t is divided
among them.

from the manner in which he turned

ing up the paving. Night officer
Green caught sight of him and or
dered him to stop. Ordinary COM

New York Man Has Passed Ninetieth
Birthday and Still Works.

DR.. Charles Elmendorff, said to be
the Oldest practicing dentist in Amer
lea, celebrated his ninetieth birthday
at his home in Penn Yam, N. Y.
Doctor Elmendorff is the son Of the
late Dr James Elmendorff, one of the
frst dentists to open an Office In
western New York. When nineteen
years old Charles entered the office
and worked continuously at dentistry.
Practically all Of these 70 years have
been passed at Penn Yam. When Doc
tor Elmendorff began working the art
of filling teeth was unknown. All he
did for years was to extract teeth
that could not be pulled at home by
the use of a string. Later, however,
when the science of treating teeth adj
vanced, he was called upon to learn
and employ new methods.
The aged dentist Is In excellent
health ed can be found In his Office
every day.
