Savannah morning news. [volume] (Savannah) 1868-1887, 1885-11-08

A proposed remedy for preventing
druggists mistakes is the Swedish law
which provides that prescriptions shall
be written in duplicate and one copy
pasted on the bottle while the other is re-
tanned by the druggists. Another remedy
is to color morphine, 50 that it could
readily be distinguished from quinine.
But the Detroit Free Press thinks one
careless druggist hung or imprisoned for
life would keep druggists wide awake for
the next century.

The Brittany COW in color is principal
ly black and white; is low in the legs, sell
dom exceeding eleven hands, with prom
inent eyes; horns fine and regular; re-
markable for It's extreme doclity and gem
tleness, and particularly distinguished
for Its beauty, perfection OF form and the
STIFFNESS Of It's skin. One important
characteristic Of the breed Is It's natural
hardihond and freedom from the diseases
incident to cattle generally, no disease
being known In Brittany. IL thriyes well
on the coarsest description OF food, and It
IL generally tetherod, as in the Channal
islands, or else tended by the children
while browsing on the roadside. The
Brittany is rich and abundantless mixer
for her size, and Is doubtless the original
stock OF the Channal islands, generally
known as Jerseys.
