THE Italians have a great reverence
of their art treasures. They love them
better than we do ours, and regard
with jealous eyes the secrets of their
handicrafts. When the Council of Ten
ruled Venice it issued decree regard
ing the art of glassmaking. 1t runs:
IF workman carry his art beyond
the limits of his country to the detri-
ment of the republic he shall be desired
to return. If he disobey his nearest
relatives shall be imprisoned. If, in
spite of their imprisonment, he remain
obstinate in his wish to remain abroad,
an emissary shall ne tolled off to kill
him"

THAT is curious story which comes
from Berlin to the effect that the black
eye which the emperor received during
his yachting trip along the coast of
Norway was not due, as alleged, to the
fall of rope, but to a blow delivered
in anger and passion by young Lieut..
Won Hahnlie, and that the latter's mys-
terious death "a hours later was attrib-
uted not, as asserted, to bicycle acci-
dent, but to suicide.

Druggists nowadays carry many
things in stock which their predeces-
sors never dreamed of carrying. The
latest suggestion designed to extend
the scope of their trade was made at
the social meeting Of the Alumni AS
sociation Of the Philadelphia College
of Pharmacy on Tuesday evening. Dr.
J. Madison Taylor read a paper on
Diet for Young Children. In it he
suggested that druggists could make
money and greatly help the community
by selling pure milk for infants. He
called attention to the fact that they
had already entrenched on the domain
of the confectioner and tobacconist
and he could see no valid reason why
they could not. with equal propriety
take portion Of the trade of the dairy
men. They could inspire the dairy
men to supply them with milk of spe.
cial purity. and thereby both dairy.
