Price Advance
ror over a year now we
have succeeded in main
taining our old prices,
principally by virtue of a
big increase in sales,
which reduced our over
head cost.
For our fiscal year end
ing July 1, 1918, our sales
amounted to over a million
dollars an increase of 58
percent over the proceed
ing year.
We had hoped to bridge
the war period without a
change in prices on
Vick's VapoRub
but we find that our econ
omies do not keep pace
with our rising costs. It
is with sincere regret,
therefore, that we are
forced to announce an in

which will make it neces
sary to retail VapoRub at
