New Jerseys Pure Food Law.

New York. Nov. 2.-What is said to
be the strictest pure food law in the
United States went into effect in
New Jersey yesterday. Everything
that can come into use for human
consumption as food or drink is in
cluded under the law. The inspection
will even take liz canned goods. 1t
does not matter whether these or any
thing else is manufactured or put up
outside of the state or in it. they are
liable to come under the ban of the
law il the analysis shows them to be
unfit for human food.

IMPURE FLAvoRs FOR SODA. I
Nearly All the syrups Used by Druggists

The use Of adulterated and harmful

Is by no means As uncommon as many
people suppose. Analysis has shown
that even the cheapest of these are of

or vanilla flayoring for the alleged rea-

than others to adultcration VIII be sur

extract for which substitutes are more
often used than vanilla. This Is said

the grasping white speculator had
