THE MOUNT HOLLY NEWS
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 1906.

HARDLY week passes without the NeU-
ark Neecs having some fling at Burlington
county. After reading that paper one
might readily gain the idea that nothing
good ever came out of Burlington. -
Incidentally it might be remarked that
the editor of the Nesoark Neaos was born
in this county.

The opposition to Senator Cornishs bill,
requiring each package and bottle of
patent medicine to be labeled with list
of its ingredients, is taking very pecu-
liar form. 1t is, in substance, a demand
that every lphysician's prescription shall
be written in plain English and not In the
Latin and medical hieroglyphics now in
use. The claim is that the patient has as
much right to know the ingredients of a
doctors prescription as he has to know
what is In the patent medicine he buys
and swallows. This is not strictly correct
Every physician worthy of the name has
made thorough study, under the most
favorable auspices, of the human system
and all its ailments. and an equally
thorough study of the medicines most
efficient as curatives. All this study is
supplemented by years of observation,
experience and practice under the most
instructive conditions and the most i'm
pressive responsibility. Doctors know as
no others can know what is the matter
with patients and what medicines are best
for them. With patent medicines it is en-
tirely different. Interested and ignorant
people make the diagnosis and take they
know not what 1t is often best for pa
tients not to know what the doctors pre-
scribe. 1t is best for all to know what
patent medicines are made of; they will
then refuse to take most of them, and will
be better for it-Nesoark Akgertfsey.

OUR LANGUAGE UNIFORM.


While Great Britain, For Instanee,
Has Many Different Languages.
1t has been observed that the Ian
guage spoken In the United States is
remarkably uniform. True, there are
many dialects, but Great Britain, less
In area than any one of half dozen of
our states, contains such very differ
ent languages as English, Welsh and
the Gaelic Of the Scottish highlands, to
say nothing Of the provincial dialects
Of Cornwall and Yorkshire and the
unique speech of the London cockney.
while in this country, with its vast ex-
panse Of territory, its settlement by
Spanish, French. Dutch and Swedish
colonists and It's millions of Immigrants
drawn from nearly every country, large
and small. all over the world, there is
far greater uniformity of speech than
in any other land Of equal area and
population.
The causes can be readily seen. The
public schools have made us q nation
Of readers, and the press has supplied
books and papers without limit. Press
associations have done their part to-
ward giving a uniform and fairly good
tone to the newspaper language of the
day. The telegraph, the telephone and
cheap postage have brought distant
parts Of the country into quick and
easy communication, and so have aid
ed In teaching a common language
The railroad has penetrated every cor
ner Of the land and made us a nation
Of travellers. Countless human shut
ties thus are thrown daily across the
land in every direction. carrying with
them the threads Of thought and speech
and doing their part to make one pat
tern Of the whole No doubt our maps,
which still present so many different
kinds Of names, will In time lose the
strangeness and the "fcIeign air" that
are 80 noticeable now.-H. NJ. Kingery

olden Days Of Whaling.
rom the Technical World.

FROM the lechnicai Noril.
The DAYS of the old-time whaling feet,
when more than two hundred full-rigged
ships sailed out OF New Bedford harbor on
three and four-year voyages to the most
distant and dangerous seas, were over moro
than half century ago. The right or
Greenland whale of the Arctic waters-with
his mouth full of whalebone-and his cou-
sin, the sperm whale of tropical waters,
bearing in its head the precious spermaceti,
were practically exterminated by those ALL
daring, iron-nerved, keen-eyed Yankee skip
pers.
Their splendid ships, the Annie B., the
Mary Jane the Blue-Eyed Susan-great low
this race of gentlemen acknowledgements
at the wharves or were degraded to serv-
ice as coastwise lumber-luggers. The cap
tatns died and with them vanished world
of romance and adventure. No men, in no
time more truly than they, went down to
the sea in ships"
But when the pennant of the last old-time
whaling ship was hauled down forev"-.
there still proudly swan the oceans the
vast rorqual or racer whale greatest of all
his mighty kin. To the sailing fleet of the
old days, the rorqual was an almost impos-
sible prize, because of its tremendous speed.
1t was practically unmolested. and multi
piled exceedingly in both North Atlantic
and Pacific waters.
1t was the abundance Of this levathan,
measuring ninety feet in length and weigh
Ing almost as many tons-bulking larger
than whole herd of elephants-which was
the inspira ton of the modern whaling in
dustry

Standard Bottles Needed.

From the American Grocer
One of the most particular things that
should be looked after at the present time
Is the improper selling of goods packed in
glass. The whole trouble can be easily
remedied by simply having the states pass
a law requiring that all goods packed in
glass have the actual containing capacity
of the glass blown in the bottle showing
the actual capacity of fluid that It will con-
tain. This will put competition on fair
basis, and not compel buyer to rely upon
tho statement of the sellers as to what the
bottle will contain. For instance I have
Known catsup sold, said TO be in pint bot
tie. that in reality holds only about ten
ounces of water and other sizes in propor-
ton. Investigation of the different sizes of
bottles Sold with a comparison OF what
they are supposed to contain, would prove
a revelation. There are a few bottles. com
monty known as half-pints pints and
quarts that do not contain anything near
the standard measure. There are so-called
pint bottles of catsup that vary anywhere
in capacity from twelve to eighteen ounces
Olive Oil bottles said TO hold half-pints.
pints and quarts contain only five ounces
ten ounces and twenty ounces, and in some
cases eighteen ounces respectively. This Is
ar imposition. II should be stopped and I
would suggest that you advocate the pass
ing of law compelling a uniformity of
sizes. AS you know. the Baltimore can
ners have n standard size foy cans Why
not have the same thing exist in making
bottles?

French automobile service and French air
ships. While these are still grave secrets
certain details may be told. The automo-'
bile service is, indeed, Incompatible.
Automobile Service
The recent adventures of a friend OF
mine-the son-ln-law already mentioned
gave me glimpse of it last summer. Hav-
ing finished his regular military service
some five years ago, he became liable TO
do twenty-eight days maneuver in 1904.
He is an expert automobilist, owning al
big machine. Therefore when he went to-
get postponed they asked him, Would yout
not prefer to be turned into the automobile
corpse" He jumped at it--for the present
advantage. his twenty-eight days service
becoming a mere tauut with generals, but
the moment war breaks ont he will have to
scorch to headquarters and put both him
self and his auto at the disposition of the
national defense
How many thousand powerful high-class
automobiles with their expert owner-chauf-
feurs thus have their places all marked out
for them in case of mobilization only the
French etat-maio knows: and the true
mored automobiles now built and building
for the army with q night-and-day rush
would make another story could the facts
be known.
They are completely armored." said the
functionary. Neither conductor nor mech
anician are visible from the outside and
the servants OF the rapid-dring piece are
behind in a little tower that gives no indi-
cation of the firing direction"
Il have moro confidence in the airships." 4
said the officer. II saw the Lebaudy trials.
The machine navigated all right against
strong winds. They may be able to defeat
a movement of the enemy by their lncom-
parable scouting"
Rifle bullets have practically no effect on
them" added the functionary. And even
at the present day artillery cannot be
pointed vertically"
The government had better hasten their
construction" said the officer.
Ten airships of the Lebaudy model are
already building" said the functonary,
and they could be completed for war In
ten days."
