Richardson came to realize the need for some effective and convenient method of treating dis eases oF.the respiratory organs, such as spasnodic croup, pneumonia, bronchitis, etc. The only way get medication directly to these parts is i vapor form, since internal medicines goonly to the stomach.
 MT. Richardson finally worked out a process of combining the standard, tirne-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 VapoF2ub.
