IMPURE DRUGS
UNDER THE BAN
Health Board Wages Crusade
Against Alleged Delete
rious Medicinal Mixtures

Besides its active crusade against the
prevailing practice of adulterating food
stuffs. the Board of Health is at present
busy making meteorological examinations
of drugs and medicines with view to-
ward securing their absolute purity.
DR.. A. c. Bottle, head of the bacterio-
logical department, will at to-day's meet
ing of the board submit a partial report
of his Investigations in that connection.
1t is stated by the health officials that
certain compounds dispensed for the al
legged cure of many ills will be driven
from the market owing to their deleteri-
Gus composition as ascertained by Bottle
upon his analysis.
A nostrum which is advertised to kill
all the germs and microbes to which hu-
man flesh is subject will be among the
medicinal preparations reported against
by DR.. Bottle. This nostrum is repre-
sented by the manufacturers as being
composed of ingredients which, in COM
bined state, are sure death to the ba-
cilli which are said by medical experts
to cause all sorts of diseases.
Bottle, in his report, will make the dec
laration that the nostrum mentioned con-
tains sulphuric acid which, while also re-
garded as destroyer Of germs. is not TO
be allowed by the health officials to en-
ter the human stomach.
Bothe's report will be the initial step
toward insuring the sale of pure drugs
and establishing the requirement that
any drug shall not be sold under misrep-
The Health Board intends to
pursue it's inquiries into all compounds
of like character and startling devel-
opments are promised in that line
