Replying to the charge that certain
popular proprietary medicines contain
narcotic drugs, an authority says:
Some years ago one Of the leading
pharmacists of America, in connection
with some official work. undertook to
ASCERTAIN, by an elaborate inquiry in
representative cities OF the country,
what percentage Of physicians pre-
scriptions contained a narcotic drug
Of some kind. Out Of 100000 repre-
sentative prescriptions, dispensed in
drug stores in all parts of the United
States, 1t was found that 70 per cent
contained opium or some one Of it's
preparations.
proprietary medicines are almost
invariably accompanied by the most
detailed and specific directions for use,
while the directions accompanying
physicians prescriptions are generally
very brief and sometimes illegible. It
is also true that but a moderate pro
portion Of proprietary medicines con-
tain any poison or narcotic, and, when
they do, it IS generally in srcn small
quantities or so protected by accom-
panylng antidotes, as to carry with It
no danger whatever"

are of a placid. contented type, from
whom the restlessness Of preseLt-day
civilization seems far removed. The
dullness of the life led by the average
well-born Irish girl would be pathetic

so well on it. Year after year she
follows the same monotonous round,

in summer or hockey matches in win

trict no matter at how low an ebb

few books, passes almost as drearily
