tWW \ Mrs. Cockburn’s Report “There is nothing to equal Vicks VapoTlub for colds on the chest. I rub it well in and put on a hot flannel. The fumes rise and give almost instant relief and by morning their colds are usually gone. I have found Vicks helpful in so many ways that I should like everybody to know what a wonderful remedy it really is.” —Mrs. C. Cockburn, Ilimatangi, via Foxton. Colds on the Chest “Rubbed Away ” Overnight With Vaporising Ointment When Vicks Vapoßub was introduced into New Zealand, among the first to recognize the advantage of treating cold troubles externally was Mrs. C. Cockburn of Himatangi. Her letter —typical of hundreds—is reproduced here. Her enthusiasm is not surprising. It is • only necessary to rub the throat and chest with Vicks at bedtime, cover it with warm flannel, and, almost in-® variably, the most obstinate cold is vanquished b/ morning. - Inhaled as a Vapour; Absorbed Like a Liniment Vicks is so made that, when it is rubbed over the throat and chest, the medication takes effect in two distinct ways. First, it is absorbed through and stimulates the skin like a poultice or plaster, relieving the tightness and soreness. Second, its ingredients—Menthol, Camphor, Eucalyptus, Thyme, Turentine, etc. —are released by the body eat as vapours, and inhaled with each breath direct to the air passages and lungs. Colds are caused by bacteria which attack the delicate lining of the air passages. Healthy membrane is able to resist these germ attacks. It is only w’hen the resistance of the tissues is weakened —by a sudden chill, for example—that the germs are able to make headway. < The best way to treat colds Is to apply the medication directly to the inflamed air passages to stimulate the membrane to throw off the cold germs. But that is only possible with vapours that can be inhaled. And Vicks sup* plies the most convenient and economical method of furnishing the vapours. Other Uses for Vicks Vicks is especially valuable for children’s colds, because it is applied externally and avoids “dosing” the stomach with so much internal medicine. It is equally good for croup, bronchitis and threatened influenza. For colds in the bead, catarrh or asthma, melt Vicks and inhale the Vapours. Its'healing antiseptic qualities make it valuable, too, for surface inflammations, such as burns and bruises. ygCKS W Vapoßub For All Colo Troubles 2/6 THE POT EVERYWHERE tfqciSl KS >Rua <5-5 WICKS riON mb *."sesas?
