The Ingredients of Vicks

Since the dawn of history mankind has been
searching nature for remedies against cold
troubles The knowledge gained thru thousand
years has come down to US today. Vicks con-
tains the best known remedies for these troubles,
some of them of great antiquity. .Menthol, for
instance, comes from Oil of Peppermint which
was grown in Egypt three thousand years ago
and whose virtues are described in the old Ice
Iandic books of the 18th century.
The highest authority On drugs and their uses
is the U. S. Dispensatory. We give below few
