What is Vicks?

Vicks is the invention of 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
to get medication directly to these parts is iii vapor
form, since internal medicines only the stomach
> Mr.. Richardson finally worked out a process
of combining the standard, time-tested remedies
l-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.
