tor Dick found that he could no longer
retain food, and he gave up eating. After
that time nothing passed his lips except
water, and now and then little medicine.
One Sunday night several physicians
dropped In to see him, and he took the
opportunity to enlarge upon his nonstarva-
ton theory.
You see" he began with smile, Il

investigation of the use OF poor and adul-
terated drugs.
1t was an astonishing condition of things
which the Department OF Health found
when it began to investigate the drugs used
In the city. The head OF its drug depart
ment visited eight Of the leading wholesale
druggists, supplying, according to the de-
partment S5s per cent OF the drug stores
of the city. II asked" said he. ''for the
best drugs they had" Samples to the num-
Der of $50 Of such drugs as sconite. BELLA
donna, digitalis, lobelia, powdered SIENNA,
saffron and rhubarb were secured. OF these
the aconite. belladonna, digitalis. lobelia,
saffron and powdered SIENNA have been
tested. Not one of these proved TO be up
TO the standard maintained by the Depart
ment of Health. Owing to carelessness in
grinding and, in the case of saffron, which
sells at about SIS a pound. and therefore
tempts to adulteration, TO the presence of
artincially colored flower petals which
looked like those of the daisy. there was

too fine, for they may be too strong. nor too
coarse. for they may be weak or uneven

the particles will pass through screen

About third OF the lobelia obtained passed
through a screen OF 100 meshes. while some

dose for aconite. which Is used to reduce
fevers. is about ten drops. In the samples
examined by the department some were so
weak that twenty-five drops would have
been required OF the tincture in order TO
obtain the strength OF normal dose. In
other words, a doctor prescribing

of prominent ply sicians. and even drug
gists themselves, there are few drug stores
In New York City where drugs which have
a full medicinal value are used in COM
pounding prescriptions Cheaply ground
drugs. whose strength 10 unknown and
whose action canot be depended upon, are
used. Patients, IN consequence. do not re-
spond to the medicines prescribed. and the
physician is at a loss to account for IT,
He does not know whether 1t is because of
the patients condition or the fault OF the
drugs. and ne Is powerlsss to cope with II.
The variation in the strength OF drugs
sold in New York is so great that the lives
OF persons are jeopardized. According TO
one druggist, this condition is due to the
commercialism which has crept into the
business. Druggists are buying cheap drugs
and few OF them are equipped 20 that they
can tell whether or not they are getting
drugs which are capable OF producing the
results expected of them.
Az result. many physicians are going
back to the method OF the old-fashioned
country practitioner OF carrying their med
icines with them, prepared by chemists on
whom they can depend. So accustomed are
physicians To. the existing drug conditions
that when they learned of the results of
the tests Of a number OF drugs made by the
Department OF Health they manifested no
surprise at all. These simply corroborated
their own experiences.
Great Harm BEING Done.
Morphine and cocoalne flends and drunk
ards are being made every day by the use
OF nostrums. According TO Champe s. An
drews. counsel for the Medical society of
the county OF New York. there are 1000
nostrums on the market containing alcohol,
opium. morphine or cocaine. or these. he
said, 800 contain alcohol ranging In GUAM
tity from Is to 90 per cent: 800 contain
opium. 400 morphine and 800 cocaine Many
cocaine fiends have been made by use OF
catarrhal snuffs, whose formulate were I'M
known TO the users They did not know
that the snuffs contained cocaine ranging
In quantity from to sls per cent. There
are only two reasons for keeping the for
mula OF a nostrum Observation-Disclosures

OF New York. formerly editor of the New
York State Journal of Medicine. The

Disappointins Results.

The csrelsssness. TO say the least, of some
druggists and the intentional substitution
OF drugs which others are guilty OF are
illustrated by a couple of instances re-
lated by MIR. Andrews In one child
was sent 10 a drug store on the West side,
uptown. to have a prescription filled. The
child did not go TO the drug store where
the prescription had been hlled first. This
did not feaze the druggist to whom the
child went however He took the bottle
over the counter and filled II with some
thing. probably the compound which was
represented by the corresponding number
contained In his book and returned the
bottle to the child without changing the
label In the least The members of the
family who were TO take the medicine did
not receive the expected benefit. but. on
the contrary. were injured seriously by IL.
