Dangerously Yours was a half hour show sponsored by Vicks. There were sixteen episodes broadcast in 1944, with eleven of them available to collectors today. Each episode seemed to star Victor Jory as the leading man, and concentrated heavily on romance, with much airtime being devoted to lovers murmuring sweet nothings at each other, and the action and adventure being relegated to backdrop status. At the end of each episode, the announcer would give a very brief teaser for the following week's show.

break his heart, not over stories. The only thing that will ever break
his heart is losing you. Don'tsay that, Please don't say that.
Mother. Well, doctor, it'shard to know what to say to you,
(09:37):
missus Bob. I wish you'd letme talk to your husband. How
old are you, missus Bob?Twenty three? Am I very ill?
Doctor? Do you want the truth? My child? Yes? I want
the truth. Well, I'm sorry, but I can't help you. Medical

Vic's vapor rubbed. You just rubit on the child's throat, chest and
(11:28):
back at bedtime, and right awayit starts in to help relieve the congestion
and irritation in the upper breathing passages, the coughing spasms, sore throat,
and that muscular soreness or tightness.Results are so good because vapor rubbed penetrates
penetrates into the upper bronchial tubes withits special soothing medicinal vapors, and at
(11:50):
the same time it stimulates stimulates chestand back surfaces like a comforting, warming
portice. This penetrating stimulating action ofvapor rub keeps on working for hours.
It invites RESTful sleep, and oftenby morning most of the misery of the

What a nice compliment. Come sitbeside me. Let me put my arm
around your dolling. What was thematter, dear? Why did you call

See, every time I shut myeyes lately, I feel as though I
was sinking into a pit, andthat you were being drawn away from me.
Someimwhare out into space. But I'mnot No, It's only my horrible
dream I had one last night.I got up and lit the lamp and
(13:39):
sat there watching you sleep, Andthen I was at peace. You seemed
to me an angel, wholly pureand remote from all earthly things, And
during those hours I was free fromthe thing that haunts me. It was
there I came to know exactly whatit is you art of me? What
(14:01):
is that? You're all the goodthat's in me. You're my religion and
my faith and my honor. You'rethe life that can dispel the blackest night.

clear logical reason for my continuing tolive a life that has no beauty but
