Sudden Deaths.

New York has ascertained that a
very large per cent of sudden deaths
from heart disease are due to the un-
wise use of patent medicines that con-
tain drugs that are heart deppessants.
A law was recently passed fOrbid<ltag 6
the sale of any medicine that contain
ed aeetanilid or any other drug tsat
had a tendency 10 weaken the action
of the heart. This grew out OF the
fact that the number Of sudden
deaths was becoming alarming and
some physicians trassd the trouble TO
the use Of certain drugs.
A strict censorship was kept upon
all the medicines sold and the sale Of
the dangerous ones suppressed almost
entirely. The result was that at the
end of the year past the number Of
terially. The dSctOrs do not hesitate
to say that they have found the secret
not only Of the New York deaths, but
of many throughout the country.
In the state OF Ohio there Is a
stringent law against the free distri-
button Of samples of medicine. Yet
this law is constantly violated in Can
ton, and Saturday large number Of
headache powders were thrown into
the homes of the city. It is a matter
that needs looking into. There have
been instances where children have
eaten samples of medicine and death
or serious illness resulted. The great
est danger lies in the headache medi.
cines that are composed of what the
doctors call coal tar preparations.
Among them is cetanilid, which is
deadly to a person with weak
heart
Itr. Narchand, who is at the head
said Sunday night that the law should
be enforced; that the distribution OF
samples was dangerous practice.
The journal of the American Medical
association, lii commenting upon the
increase of deaths from heart dis
ease, says.
This question Of the evil OF depress-
ant drugs is all the more interesting
because Of the freedom which socall-
ed headache powders, mainly compos-
ed Of acetanilid and other heart de-
pressants, are now so commonly
bought and sold. Many women, and
even men, think nothing of stepping
into drugstore and asking for some
thing for a headache. The headache
powders that are dispensed to them
so freely always contain acetanilid
and great harm is being done IN this
way. 1t is probable that a similar
investigation in other cities of the
country might also furnish instructive
facts. Certain 1t is that proper legal
regulation of the sale of such depress.
ant drugs, so that they could not be
dispensed except under the direction
of competent physician, would in
the long run have a beneficial effect
on the sudden death rate from heart
disease. This cause of sudden death
is becoming more frequent in this
country, and is serious menace for
those suffering from even slight forms
of heart disease If they are so foolish
as TO take these remedies.

Dunbar. the Expert of Magicians will
give his splendid entertainment in
magic and black art at Opera
House Tuesday. Feb. Q. Dunbar has
been interested in this line of work for
a number of years and is we'll known
for his wonderful creative power The
reason we so seldom see any new tricks
OF so called magic and ledgerdenain is
because there are SO few men who can
originate these tricks. Those who have
this ability are not often seen Demon
strating their inventions as they obtain
fair remuneration from the practic-
,-.: nagicians and have ample OPP
IdrtInity for other pursuits and SO
"'i!y execute them as pastime. Mr..
Dunbar has furnished a number of the
leading magicians of the day with
many unique and original illusions and
now after much persuasion has decided
to join the opponents of magic. black
art and sleight Of hand. lie has an
unrivaled list of feats which he will OK
hibit during his visit here and no one
at all interested in chemistry, mathe-
mates. electricity. astronomy, mechan-
ism of any kind or the wonderful
memory tests. can fail to be interested
in his entertainment. Mr.. Dunbar has
surrounded himself with an excep-
tionally able company of assistants and
his appearances so far have been re-
ceived with strong words of COM
mendation not only as to his ability but
fol the unusual variety of the subjects
which he presents.
