BAD ADVICE.

There are strong indications that the grocers
OF this country have taken to heart the lessons
taught by occurrences of the past year. They
seem to think the pure food law is only express
sion Of sporadic discomfort
In this they grievousy mistaken, they
will discover to their cost if they do not change
their present attitude and methods. The pure food
law was enacted because the people OF this coun-
Try became tired of paying high prices for counter
felt poisoned food
The law is not perfect and it will require adj
d.ons and amendments by future congresses. 1t
Will depend largely upon the dealers in foodstuffs
to say whether by willing compliance with the de-
s'res of the people they will secure the modihca-
ti of provisions that may bear harshly upon
them, whether by evasion or defiance they will
invite the establishment of more rigid restrictions
and the imposition of severer penalties.
1t would seem some dealers are bent
rpon following the latter course; at least it APP
pears so from the following extract from circular
distributed by the National Wholesale Grocers'
association.
There is nothing in the law says this circu-
lar, that prohibits the sale of goods containing
any particular coloring matter preservative.
Parties desiring to fictitious names might
organize firms or corporations under these names.
Fictitious names may be used with mpunity until
next October"
What does this mean? Simply that the asso-
citation is advising its members to continue prac-
tices that were always reprehensbe, and that now
are unlawful as we'll 1t is dangerous advice be
cause il urges defiance of the law and is plain
challenge to the people, who are determined to
have no more of falsity and formadehyde.
1t is inconceivable that many reputable grocers
will heed this sinister counsel AS for those OF
the other kind who do follow It. they will simply
deserve the trouble and loss that will inevitably
overtake them.

BOY OF II SHOWS AGE
RAVAGES OF MAN OF 60

Chicago. Jan. i0.-A dispatch TO the
Record Herald from Minneapolis says:
J. NJ Anderson, who died at the City
hospital here yesterday at the age OF
II years and two months. was. in the
opinion of physicians. at least so years
OF age at the trme OF his death, so far
as the condition of his vital organs
determine the age Of n man.
When the child was six years old
his hair began TO turn gray, his eye-
sight began TO fail and he walked with
the deliberate care OF person we'll adj
vanced in years. As very young
child he was exceptionally bright, but
his mental faculties were gradually
falling for the last two years, 40 he
was little better than person IN his
dotage during the last few months.

the square-dealing OF the firm at the same
time that II has we'll proved the value

If there are any sincere Democrats in this
city who doubted the wisdom, even from the view
point of party. of Mayor Mccarthy in reappoint-
ing Colonel Gross to the police commission, it
must have been dispelled by the strong approval
of that action voiced by the leaders OF the Prov-
dence Democracy at the 25th anniversary ban
quet of the Young Mems Democratic club last
evening, and by the formal and emphatic vote OF
endorsement passed by the organization itself.

of the decent Democracy of the city when he said,
Il am glad TO encourage man who could do his
duty as he saw it and especially glad that he did it
