General Cut I'm Patent Medicines Prom
ised the Afflicted.
There is trouble brewing IN the drug
trade and cut-Tate In kidney cures and
liver restoratiYes Is almost assured the af-
ficted. The trouble has grown out OF the
conduct of a couple of newly established
firms who sought popular favor by declar-
ing against the percentages allowed phys-
clans on prescriptions and also by reducing
the prices of a number of patent medi-
cines. The old-line druggists stood this for
a long time, but the inrOads ia their bust
ness finally forced their hand and now they
are out in the field, booted and spuTred and
ready TO carry the war into the camp of the
enemy.

which they all belong. held meeting yes

Pharmacy at 1I3 Fulton street. There was
very full attendance, near 100 members be-

heated and extreme measures were adYO-

appoint committee who should carry the

in the sale Of patent medicines we have

by the manufacturers, and which is almost
invariably printed on the vial or package.
In selling at these prices we have been as

the dollar. 1t would almost be ruinous to
sell at any lower figure. These two con-
Germs of which we complain have lowered
