The Drug Clerks Work and Pay.

OF all the t%oilers, retail drug clerks are
the poorest paid. 1t takes at least three
years to learn the business, and about the
same time to get familiar with it's details;
so that you may say it requires five years
to become a competent clerk. Now, this
is so much the best part of his life that is
thrown away. and for what2 Simply TO
know how to earn $12 or $l4 per week. A
man who drives u car a earn more than
that, and requires no time to learn. The
drug business may not be a profession, al
though it is generally SO considered, but
Mt the least calculation it comes under the
head OF skilled labor. No one will pre-
tend to deny that drug clerks are intelli-
gent. From my experience with men in
general think they compare very favora-
bly, with any other class, and are far above
the average. know comparatively few
young druggists who read Latin and
Greek and are excellent English scholars.
They study botany, geology and anatomy
between prescriptions.
One thing Is certain, a Ounce can not
work long in drug store. He will be
found out before he knows it. AS a mat,
ter of fact, a dull and careless young mar
can not get a diploma from any of our bet
ter class of schools of pharmacy. The po-
sitiou occupied by the retail pharmacist is
III of great responsibility. Errors made
by the doctor are often corrected by the
prescriptionist. The retail drug clerk is
expected to be always on hand, night OF
day, wide-awake, active, and reliable; and
no labor of like character receives sc
little compensation. Drug Clerk in Globe.

Monkeys in Defense of their KIND.

A cowardly little Capuchin monkey
will charge a bulldog to rescue Il Shrek
ing comrade. Shooting a Rhesus mon
key never fails to awaken the anathemas
of his fellow-apes; they follow the muir
derer for miles with indignant shrieks
and all sorts of p~antomimes, suggestive of
reprisal. "In the defiles of Sidi Belbez"
(Abyssinia), says Brehm, I'VE came across
a large troop OF balloons, crossing the val
ley ahead of us. Some had already as
cended the opposite ridge, and some were
still in the valley: the latter were attacked
by the dogs, but the old males promptly
dashed down the slope, and, with wide
open mouths, roared so f~earfully that the
dogs quickly drew back. They We're again
encouraged to the attack, but by this time
the balloons had all reascended the
heights, excepting a youngster about six
months old, who, loudly calling for help,
climbed on a block of rock and was sur
rounded. Then one Of the largest males,
a true hero, came down again from the
mountain, coaxed him, and triumphantly
led him ~away-the dogs being too much
astonished to make an attack" To many
other species of animals sympathy of that
sort is so foreign that they will actually
joint massacre a wounded comrade.-Dr
Felix l.. Oswald.

Am Eccentric citizen of MOSCOW.

A Russian novelist has published a biog-
raphy of Prokoi Demidow, a well-remem-
bered citizen of Moscow, and probably the
most eccentric man of his nation. His
wealth enabled him to indulge u alania
for the strangest kind of bric-a-brac--
broken swords, knouts of all sizes and
ages, stuffed Cossacks, skulls, bottled
monstrosities and reptiles. His mu-
scum of living c%uriosities was equally
unique. He kept bears, and wild-boars
and had a stable full of Interchangeable
horses, some of them so vicious that they
had to be fed by stratagem; and Demi.
dow's fayorite anecdote was the adven-
ture of a horse-thief who one night entered
the den of equine monsters and never
afterward questioned the existence of Il
personal devil. To such as knew how to
humor his personal whims his liberality
was unbOunded,-Dr. Felix L. Oswald.

Vie smalI Tenants of Ire,and.

Sir James Card states that there are
53S 900 small tenants in Ireland who will
be unable to pay any rent if the present
low prices of produce continue. He class
ifies Irish holdings under nine heads, as
follows; Two hundred and eighteen
thousand averaging 92 rental, 1916, 900 ay
eraging Ell rental, 5000 averaging 412
rental, 5000 averaging Els rental, 4 1900
averaging e25 rental, $4,000 averaging gs5
rental, 1900 averaging g45 rental, $4,000
averaginga 75 rental, u, 200 averaging e2oO
rental. This makes a total of 659, 900 hold
ings, on which the annual rent is $52,OS5,-
600. Many tenants farm two or more hold
ings, and Sir James estimates the number
of Irish bona lde agriculturists at 400, 900.

Scrofula of Lungs
Relieved.

! I'm now 40 years old, and have suffered for
the last fifteen years with a lung trouble.
Several members of the family on my mothers
side of the house had died with consumption.
and the doctors were all agreed in their opinion
that 1 had consumption also. 1 had all the
distressing symptoms of hat terrible disease
1 have spent thousands of dollars to arrest
the march of the disease; l have employed all
of the usual methods, not only in my own case,
but in the treatment of other member of my
family, but temporary relief was all that I OBJ
tanned. l was unfit for any manual labor for
several years. By chance 1 came into posses
sion of n pamphlet on "BIood and Skin Dis
ease.' from the Office of Swift Specific Co.,
Atlanta, Ga. A friend recommended the use of
Swift's Specific claiming that he himself had
been greatly benefited by its use in Rome lung
troubles. l resolved to try it. About 4 years
age 1 commenced to take S.S S., according to

my strength has returned. and 1 weigh sixty
pounds more than | ever did in my life. 1t has
been three years since l stopped the use of the
medicine, but l have had no return of the dis
ease, and there are no pains or weakness felt in
my lungs, l do the hardest kind of mechani-
cal work; and feel as well as l ever felt since l
was q boy. These, L know, are wonderful state
ments TO make, but / am honest when l say
that | owe my existence and health to-day to
Swift's Specific. 1t is the only. medicine that
brought me any permanent relief. 1 do not say
that Swift's Specific will do this in every case,
but most positively affirm that it has done this
much for me, and l would be recreant to the
