Since January 1st, we have been running our laboratory twenty-three and a half hours out of every twenty-four. Last week we shipped the last of onr back orders, and retail druggists, therefore, are no longer requested to order in small quantities only. NOVEMBER DEAL RE-INSTATED This deal, which we had expected to put on last November and which had to be postponed on account of the shortage short-age of VapoRub, is re-instated for the month of March. This allows a discount dis-count of 10 on shipments from jobbers' job-bers' stock of quantities of from 1 to 4 gross. 5 of this discount is allowed by the jobber and 5 by us. We advise the retail druggists to place their orders immediately, so that the jobbers, will be able to get prompt shipments to them. THANKS OF THE PUBLIC DUE THE DRUG TRADE DURING THE INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC.

The war caused a shortage of physicians nurses were almost impossible to obtain ob-tain the demand on the drug trade was unexpected and overwhelming, and to this demand they responded nobly. Retail druggists kept open day and night and slept where they dropped drop-ped behind the prescription counter.

Some of our raw materials are produced only in Japan supplies in this country were low and shipments required three months to come from the Far East-Then East-Then we had to recruit and train skilled labor. We brought our salesmen sales-men into the factory and trained them as foremen. We invented new machinery, ma-chinery, and managed to install it on Christmas Day, so as not to interfere with our daily production. 143 JARS OF VAPORUB EVERY MINUTE DAY AND NIGHT By January 1st we had everything ready to put on our night shift, and since then our laboratory has been running day and night. .
