What is Vicks?

Vcks is the invention Of a North Carolina
druggist, Mr.. l.. Richardson. During his years
of experience behind the prescription counter,
Mr.. Richardson came to realize the need for some
effective and convenient method Of treating dis
eases of the respiratory organs, such as spasnodic
Group, pneumonia, bronchitis, etc. The only way
co get medication directly to these parts is III vapor
form, since internal medicines goonly the stomach.
Mr.. Richardson finally worked out process
of combining the standard, time-tested remedies
-Camphor, Menthol, Turpentine, Oil of Eu-
calyptus, ETC. in salve form, so that when
applied to the body, the ingredients would be
vaporized by the body heat. This preparation he
called Vick's VapoRub.

of five races
~ Captain Burton admits in sailorman
fashion that in a lump sea with faint
airs the Herreshoff s1oop foots faster
than the Nicholson craft.
He said that in the early stage of
Thursdays race Shamrock had out
footed Resolute and was in position
to have crossed her bow when she
was struck by a squa1l and wended
off, SO that when the weather cleared
and the wind halted, Resolute found
herself we'll to weather and ahead.
Captain Burton showed two photo
graphs taken, from an airplane just
after the start to show that the chal-
lenger was leading.
Claude Hickman, navigator of
Shamrock ", said in regard to the
criticism of the Shamrock's start in
the first race that the Shamrock's
jockeying was spoiled by the squall.
Sir Thomas is said to have told
friends here that he will challenge
again if Shamrock " fails to lift the
cup.
Seaworthiness may win or lose the
cup.
"Reso1ute had an accident Thurs
day. said Mr.. Nicholson. 1--WE had
one, too, but were more fortunate.
We may have one today. But under
the condition of cup race construc-
ity."

owner of Reso1ute said

my opinion that we have the better

Breaking out a jib, Shamrock drop
ped her mooring buoy at 1922 and
moved slowly out to Sandy Hook
point. The wind was light.
Rese1ute was still at her moorings
when the challenger rounded Sandy
Hook point.
The Shamrock looked like a paint
ed ship upon a painted ocean," She
was barely in motion and her big
white sail contrasted sharply with the
dirty fog that lay Behind her to the
northward. Captain Burton finally
gave up the effort to get to the light
ship under his own sail and at 1907
o'clock took a tow from a tug.
