ALL LABELS TELL TRUTH.
Pure Food Regulation Put in Effect by
Board.

Washington, Oct. 22.-Henceforth all
food and drug labels, without excep-
ton, must meet the full requirements
of the regulations
This is declared in no uncertain
terms by the board of food and drug
inspection. Many business interests,
particularly wholesale and retail gro
GERS and jobbers, have tried to avoid
full compliance with the regulations.
They took heart somewhat from pre-
vious ruling, by which they were al
lowed to use labels printed on or be-
fore Oct. 16, 1906, even if those labels
did not fully comply with the regula-
tiol,. The only requirement was that
those labels should contain no actual
misstatement about the character of
the contents, and that they should not
be used under any circumstances later
than Oct. 1, 1907.
The grocers asked the board that this
same privilege be extended to Oct. l.,
1908. but their request has been re-
fused. The board is DESTROYS that only
originally printed labels be used, but if
old labels are used at all, they must
now be corrected, by stickers or eras-
ures, to comply with the regulations.
The board will not be satisfied to have
misstatement appear in one place,
and a correction in another. The mis-
statement must be entirely obliterated

stuytesant Fish Says New = Stock
Exchange Has Become Playthnig
Of Few Managers of Pools and
Cliques.

New York, Jan. 2.-Stuyvesant Fish,
IN a statement written for the Journal
of Commerce, declares great industrial
crisis is due and there are many indica-
lions of its being imminent.
Despite the unprecedented output of
gold, Mr.. Fish writes, money is dear
world over and dear because of high
prices and activity in trade.
Other causes for dear money are
found in the fact that Great Britain has
not fully made up its losses in the Boer
war; that Japan and Russia, particular
~ the latter, have scarcely begun to re-
lcover from the effects of their war and
bat within the past year there have been
tremendous losses of capital due to the
ealamities in San Francisco and Val
,.,araiso
Turning to our own country, Mr.. Fish
writes that New York, especially that
part of il known as "Wall Street, has
absorbed and is absorbing more than its
share of the loanable cash. OF the Stock
Exchange Mr.. Fish says:
( THE Stock Exchange has ceased to
be free market where buyers and sell
ers fix prices through the ebb and flow
of demand and supply, and has become
the plaything of a few managers of
cliques and pools to such an extent that
for months past every announcement OF
Seased dividends. of stock distribu-
Aof.rights has been by fall in

DIV "a

r HAT the attitude of the swell set
l toward divorce is changing is the
conviction expressed by a well-known
club man at the K~nickerbocker. He
declares that the unfortunate matri-
monial experiences of society folk are
now seldom discussed in the open,
brazen way they were not long ago.
Just as some pretty well informed
preachers said, in their condemnation
OF high society, ~divorceology, not
geneology, was in first position as a
social qualification. Tutors in the rami-
f1cations of divorce were earning more
money even than instructors in bridge.
The man or woman who knew the lat
est developments in this or that case
was a much sought-for dinner partner.
Boldly, with no show of respect for the
sacred institutions of marriage, often
gloatingly, indeed, tho shocking details
of family troubles, of family society
associations were bruited about in
draW1ng-room, dining-room and op-
era boxes, and the most recent racy
bit of information was passed along
with the greatest glee. It was no won.
der that those respectable persons who
CHANGED to enter that circle spoke so
loudly in criticism.
But according to the club man men,
toned, who, by the way, used to be
much interested in divorces and in
deed once planned to issue a "Direc-
tory of the Divorced" the subject is.

Some time ago a lady brought Us
a large pearl set in a ring. The pearl
had lost its luster so completely that
it might easily have been mistaken
for a little ball Of unpublished marble.
Its surface was rough hadn't a parti.
Gle OF shine, It would hardly be known
for a pearl. -
I'VE guessed at once what was the
matter and asked he if she hadn't
been handling something that had
acid in it., She couldn't remember at
first, but finally recalled that she had
been putting up some pickles with.
strong vinegar and supposed she had
got her fingers in the vinegar. 1
THAT was the whole trouble, A
pearl is nothing but carbonate Of
lime, and vinegar or any other acid.

Aerial Transportation in 1914.

When Prof. Alexander Graham Bell
says it is only a question of a brief
period when there will be a perfected
type of airship, by which it will be
possible to cross the Atlantic in less
than 20 hours, the rest of human kind
will listen without contradicting, not
withstanding the apparent wildness of
the prophecy. For Prof. Bell is a
dreamer who has had a remarkable
dream to come true. The United
States supreme court decided that he
is the inventor of the telephone. The
man who conceived the telephone, and
brought it to a degree of perfection
that rendered it adaptable to every
day uses, will be listened to with re-
spect when he declares that swift and
controlled air navigation is only a lit
tie way ahead. Very likely, remarks
Baltimore American, there will be lines
of airships delivering passengers in
our Banner exposition in the year
1914. Prof. Bell predicts that the per-
fected airship will rush with a speed
OF 200 miles an hour. At such a speed
of getting there New York will be only
one hour from our fair grounds. and
london and Paris not over 16 hours
away.
