For straight whisky he suggests the brand 'Semper 1dem, ana TOT 2 rank imitation he would attach the label Something Better man Whisky"
 Mr. Bonaparte tackles the qoeS- lion What is whsky?' by saHlhS'
 "A chemist or distiller mlshC o,suar this ouestion altogether dlf- ferently from the ordinary puI- chaser of whisky for his own con eumntion. but the purchaser view of the matter is materlal to attain the primary purpose of the nura food law, and 1 think it may be safely said, what he means oy whisky when buying it as dls- titled spirit, fit for use as peV- craze. and having the particular flavor which human experience mas classified as that of whisky
 undoubtedly, the flavors of diff ferent kinds of spirits all known as whisky differ considerably, ana if may be that the general i'm nression of their similarity IS que, in some measure, to imagination or imperfect memory; nevertheless, distinct and definite idea is suggest ed to the mind by the words whisky favor;' this idea is an es- sential factor in ascertaining the identity of spirit claimed to pc whisky, and, in my opinion, It IS the decisive factor in determining the relative weight of the claims oi two or more kinds of spirit to the same.
 "According to the true intent or the pure food law he says, mixture of whisky with neutral spirit must be deemed com pOund,' and not a blend, althouSh the spirit may be distillate from the same substance used to 1uf- nish the whisky, and that such mixture stands on the same foot ing as mixture of whisky and brandy, or of whisky and rum.
 Tn conclusion, MT. Bonapartes infrequent humor flashes out Ill the following paragraph:
 'The following seem to me ap- nronriate specimen brands of labels for CD straight whisky, @ mixture of two or more straight whiskies. (3) mixture of straight whisky and ethyl alcohol, and (4) ethyl alcohol favored and colored so as to taste smell, and look like whisky:
 "1. Semper 1dem Whisky A pure, straight whisky mellowed by age.
 "2. E Pluribus Unum Whisky A blend of pure, straight whiskies with all the merits of each.
 8 Modern Improved Whisky A compound of pure grain dlstll- ]ates. mellow and free from harm ful impurities.
 A. Something Better than Whisky-An imitation under the pure food law, free from fusel oil and other impurities.
 "In the third specimen it is as sumed that both the whisky ana | the alcohol are distilled from grain"

Campaign funds are not what they once were. They are grow ing more and more unpopular. A candidate for a high office finds it to his decided discredit and disad- vantage to have it said that he has a large campaign fund behind him. The Washington Star admits as much, though it says: "Embar- rassing as the campaign fund is, no one ever thinks of trying to get deadheaded into the presidency.
