The Pure Fooa Law.

Secretary Wilson says: Zone OF the
objects of the law is to inform the
consumer of the presence OF certain
harmful drugs In med dicines. The
law requires that the amount or chlo-
roform, opium, morphine, and other
habit-forming drugs be stated on the
label OF each bottle. The manufac-
turers of Chamberlain's 8 Cough REM

remedy did not contain any OF these
drtlgs. and the truth of this claim is

Wiling to Die for Thaw.

New York, Jan. 17.-One of the
two thousand strange letters which
have been received by Mrs. Evelyn
Thaw since Harry, K. Thaw's trial
began, which was made public to-
day contained an offer from an Ohio
man to substitute himself for Thaw,
and, if necessary, be executed. The
writer imposed the consideration
that his family be paid 5000, 900
as soon as the proposed substitution
is complete. His letter covered six
hundred pages. He declared that he
was a double OF the prisoner In ap-
lpearance, and could take Thaw's
place In his cell by. visiting him in
prison In disguise. The writer,
whose name was not made pub
lie, said he had no special desire
to live, and was not afraid to die,
but made the offer in order to pro-
vide for his family. The letter was
written coherently.
