LAWS DON 7
APPLY TO POISON

Pure food laws do not apply to rat
poison.
This is the dictum handed down as
result OF some discussion that the
internal revenue officers have had
with the chemists OF Parke. Davis e.
Co.
A week or so ago the government
officers seized nine barrels of honey
shipped to the drug firm on the
charge that the honey was not the
real -HRadulterated- product of hee La.
Dor They put II away and con
domination suit was started
But Parke, Davis 4 Co. came in
with the novel plea that pure food
laws had nothing TO do with that par
ticular batch of honey as they intend
To use II for rat poison, the honey be-
ing added merely ITS swEergner To
appeal to the rat palate
Under the circumstances, the dis
trict attorneys office called all bets
of and had the honey turned over at
once.
