Recipe For u Love PotiSR.

From the P0st-Express.
The examination of John Alexander
Mclean, on charge of using the
the mails with intent to deceive, was
begun this morning before United
States Commissioner Gilbert. 1t will
be remembered that an advertisement
in a Maine paper announced that ].
Alexander of 80 East Main street,
Rochester, N. Y, would, on the recipe
OF small sum, send potion warrant
ed to secure the love of any young
man or maiden, and that for an add,
tionsl recompense Mr.. Mclean would
himself compound the receipt.
Postal Examiner Coate, who was
first called, stated that he had written
under an assumed name to ~. Alex
ander," requesting the recipe. When
the reply had come the inspector
sent back this acknowledgment:
BUFFALO. N. Y, Nov. "a, 1892.
J Alexander, Rochester, N. T.
DEAK sIR: Your recipe, how to make any
one love you recieYed send you 81 cents for
you to fill out the recipe and send Iae ssI want
1t to have the desired effect. Send by return
MAIL JOhN NhAfMANI ~ pWhu OF uuHHlO,
The inspector went to the printing
Office on Exchange street where Nc
Dean was then employed. When con-
fronted with the charge the printer
admitted that he had sent the potions
through the mail, but asserted that he
had committed no offense, as the pre-.
scription was harmless. A part OF Nc
Leans wares were compounded, he
said, by physician at Avon. The fol-
lowing is the recipe sent by Mclean
to his patrons:
| Sixty drops tincture of santal Rub
sixty drops best cherry brandy, five
teaspoontuls of burnt graduated sugar
boiled to syrup.
OF this given eight to ten drops in
anything you can get the person tt
take, such as milk, water, wine, whis
key, or anything fit to drink. You
can also give it in any kind of eata
bles. such as apples, oysters, sugar
candy, and breads of all kinds.
