Last winter druggists iIn many sections were out of Vicks for months Where Vicks Began The Drug Store in which O. Henry Spent His Boyhood This is the drug store in Greensboro, N.C. ardson in 1888 from Dr. Porter. Dr. Po: ., purchased by Mr. Lunsford Rich- rter was the uncle of “Will" Porter, who, under the nom-de-plume of O. Henry, became America’s greatest short story writer. O. Henry practically grew up in this store and learned here the profession of pharmacy. It was during his years behind the prescription counter of this drug store that Mr. Richardsou worked out the formula for Vicks. Directions far the Use of Vicks ICK’S VapoRub comes in salve form. When applied to the body its action is two-fold. 1st.—INTERNAL. The heat of the body releases the ingredients in the form of vapors. These vapors are in- haled with each breath, carrying the medication through the air passages to the lungs. 2nd —EXTERNAL. In addition, Vicks is absorbed thru end stimulates the skin, attracting the blood to the surface and aiding the vapors inhaled to relieve the congestion. For Deep Chest Colds, Sore Throat, Brgnchitis, Coughs, Hoarseness Forseverecases, hot, wettowelsshould be applied over the throat and chest to open the pores of the skin. Then Vicks should be rubbed well in, spread on thickly and covered with two thick- nesses of hot, flannel cloths. The clothing should be left loose around the neck and the bed clothes arranged in the form of a funnel, so that the vapors arising may be freely inhaled. For Head Colds, Asthma, Catarrh, Hay Fever, Whooping Cough For these troubles, Vicks can be used as for chest colds or can be melted in a Where Vicks spoon and the vapors inhak: ; or a litle applied up the nostr’ s and snuffed back into the air_ p:ssages. For Spasmodic Croup and Children’s Colds Vicks is particularly recommended for children's colds, since it is exter- nally applied and can, therefore, be used often and frecly with perfect safety. For spasmodic croup, rub Vicks over the throat and chest until the difficult breathing is relicved: then spread on . thickly and cover with a hot flannel cloth. An application at bedtime usually prevents a night attack of croup. For Use as a Liniment, Poultice or Plaster On account of its penetrative and rubefacient effect on the skin, Vicks has been found excellent for many minor ailments, such as Bites, Boils, Burns, Bruises, Cuts, Frost bite, Itchings, Muscular Soreness, Poison oak, Sun- burn, Headache.

Insist on the Genuine At all Druggists 30c—60c—$1.20 How the Use of this External Treat- ment for Cold Troubles Has Grown ORE than a score of years ago, Luns- ford Richardson, a druggist in a little North Carolina town, was trying to find a new way to treat spasmodic croup and colds. He had been trying to find it for years —he needed such a treatment in his own home —he knew that epicac and internal medicines disturbed the delicate digestions of children— that the only way to get medication directly to the air passages and lungs was in vapor form. So he was searching for an effective vapor treatment which would be economical, convenient, and which could be used without the necessity of closing up the sick room and thus excluding the fresh air, so important in the treatment of colds. At last, this druggist found a process by which he could combine in salve form the standard, - time-tested remedies— Camphor, Menthol, Eucalyptus, Thymol and Turpentine —with other volatile oils so that when this salve was spread over the throat and chest the ingredients would be vaporized by the body heat. These vapors, inhaled with each breath all night long, carried the medication directly to the parts affected and at the same time the sician should always be called. Many other troubles, such as chronic catarrh or con- tinued headache, call for thediagnosis of a good doctor. Vicks is simply an emergency remedy, which can be kept family.

Now over 17 Milkon Jars are used yearly = Vicks was found to be good for a great many troubles besides spasmodic croup, and as time went on, its sale increased county by county and state by state, until now over 17 million jars are used each year —almost one jar for every family in the United States. And this in spite of the fact that Vicks is still a new form of treatment to many people in the North and far West. The best testimony to the value of Vicks is the increasing number of families who, each year, are converted to the use of this real “Little Bodyguard in the Home.” = Here is the record of the number of jars used annually for the last "ew years: 4 110 , . o 347,748 Jars 1911 523,152 Jare 1912 s 1,027,068 Jars 1913 1,357,590 Jars 1914 1,462,330 Jars 1915 2418218 Jars 1916 4,302,764 Jars 1917 « 6,799,511 Jars 1918 ; 17,377,408 Jars of your friends whose names and addresses you will send us.
