of her life. She is today we'll after

Drug Trade Starts Anti-cut Rate War.

All three branches of the drug trade
manufacturers, jobbers and retailers
are interested in the outcome of a
movement inaugurated by leading
manufacturers of medicinal articles
to stop price cutting on patent medi-
cines. For years the practice is said
to have demoralized the drug trade,
and all efforts to stop it have thus far
failed. The plan about to be tried
originated with the manufacturers or
proprietors and aims at the control of
prices on their goods, If retail drug
gist persists in cutting prices it is the
intention of the manufacturers In the
new agreement to stop supplying that
cutter with their goods; and if neces-
sary, to cut off those who are found
to be supplying the cutter.

Chinese Merchants Must Go.

The U. S. court commissioner at San

ion in the case of Lin Lung Wong, a
Chinese merchant who acted as fore
man in his own fruit packing estab-

manufacturer who engages in any kind
of manual labor about his factory, even
for. purposes of instructing his en-
ployees is laborer under the meaning
of the exclusion act. and as such is
not entitled to enter into or remain in
the country as a merchant. This opin-
ion, if adopted as a rule of action by
the Chinese bureau. will lead to the
of large numbers of Chi
nese propretors of cigar factories.
