GOOD FOR THE PHARMACEU
TICAL ASSOCIATION.

The American Pharmaceutical As
societion is to be congratulated on
the stand taken by its members in
session at Richmond this week
against the sale of alcohol in drug
stores. but more especially on its
firm attitude against the sale of
what are known as "the habit form
ing drugs" Every druggist in this
country should occupy the same po-
sition as that taken by this associa-
ton of leading pharmacists, and
those that refuse to do so should be
made to by law. In comparison with
the drug habit indulgence in alcohol
is mild form of intemperance. and
yet while we hear of move after
move against alcoholic liquors we
seldom. if ever. hear of any against
the sale of the habit forming
drugs" which the Pharmaceutical
Association look upon as dangerous
to the welfare of the American peo-
pie. The use of these drugs in this
country has increased to a most dan
gerous point. and the druggist who
encourages or winks at their sale
should be held responsible at the bar
of justice. They owe it to their
trade to stamp out this evil, and only
q greater desire for money
than for the welfare of human
ity has heretofore prevented
this action from being taken. Co
caine became 50 dangerous in Vir-
ginia. for instance. that the General
Assembly went so far as to make its
sale, other than under prescription
OF physician. a penitentiary offence.
and yet there are many drugs now
being freely sold which are almost. if
not equally, as dangerous. Every
reputable druggist in the country
owes it to himself and to those who
trade with him to use his best eff
forts to uphold the Pharmaceutical
Association in the stand taken at
Richmond. If they fail to cooperate
they will in the end surely suffer
thereby. since the time is rapidly
approaching when there will be
countrywide demand for the stricter
regulation of drug stores.

RECIPROCITY WITH CANADA

We very much hope that the Ca

reciprocal arrangement with the
United States whereby the inhibition
against the expectation of wood pulp
will be removed. Not only will this
break up the monopoly of the paper
trust and thus lower the price of pa
per, but it will check the rapid de-
struction of wood pulp in the United
States. which. when finally accom-

rs this important product is con-

want to keep up this ruinous policy
all along the line and indefinitely.
There is no denying the fact that the
timber in the United States availa-

paper pulp is rapidly being exhaust
