And here is the reason... The moment you rub VapoRub on the throat, chest and back at bedtime it starts to work two ways at once— and keeps on working for hours—to ease coughing spasms, help clear con- gestion in cold -clogged upper breath- ing passages, relieve muscular soreness or tightness. It promotes restful sleep. Often most of the misery of the cold is gone by morning! That's why VapoRub is so good to use when colds strike. Try it! 0111 a un. r, n u....l.l. e..l.1111111111111111,11111111 lla l 111,1111111111111111111 lo n e 11l. a 11111111111 e, m n e m e 1111111 lla e. n.. e. u 1111111/ We are pleased to be able to advise that We have received seVelal- good sllipulents cif Radio Tubes including many Of the Tubes that have been impossible to get Lor smile .time.
