while she was visiting her cousin at a
northern navy yard and became engag-
ed to aim after three weeks of ardent
wooing. and then she went home to
Altamara with his ring on her finger

about her neck. 1t would save her a

OWNED that something was amiss, and
he was troubled. but he feared to lose

question. so he held his peace.
Prater called the next day. He was
older than Jim. Ratchet faced man of
thirty, with small. shrewd eyes and
a lurking smile at the corners Of his
thin lips. He delivered messages
from Jim and then began TO lay plans

threw both arms about Cousin Kate

The tea at the yard was as delightful
as six bachelors could make ii. and. as
there was no open allusion to Jim,
Margery soon got over her momentary
embarrassment and enjoyed herself
thoroughly. Prater scarcely left her

Washington this week. The United
States Pharmacopoeial convention is
an incorporated body, chartered under
the laws of the District OF Columbia.
July 7, 1900, and is continuous, with
power to conduct revisions of the
United States Pharmacopoeia under
the constitution and bylaws framed
by the convention. The present ses-
sion of the convention is of excep-
tional importance, as it will deal with
the task of undertaking thorough re-
vision of the United States Pharmaco-
poeia, which, under the pure food law,
will be the standard for the purity,
strength and composition of all drugs
and medicines included in it.
The last revision of the pharmaco-
poeia occurred in 1900. Being then
merely a standard guide. it was not
enforceable by law, but now, under the
new food and drug law, the book is an
official work, the requirements of which
every pharmacist and dealer in drugs
must comply with under penalty of the
law. The task of the revision COM
mittee of the present convention, head
ed by DR.. Joseph p Remington of
Philadelphia, will be extremely diff
cult owing to the fact that the views
of the delegates, more or less infiuenc-
ed by the wishes of the bodies which
they represent, as to the manner in
which the revision shall be made are
widely divergent. While some of the
delegates favor a restriction of the
pharmacopoeia to a limited list of
!.
common use, other delegates desire
considerable extension of the scope of
the pharmacopoeia to limited list of
drugs and medicines in more or less
common use, so as to take in not only
the drugs and medicines already men
toned in the last edition, but large
number of new drugs which have come
in use since the last revision and are,
therefore, not described and standard
lied in the book. They are willing to
concede only the dropping of certain
modern practitioners.
Many of the medical and pharmaceu-
teal associations throughout the coun-
try have passed resolutions favoring
some policy in revising the pharmaco-
poeia, and there is a strong faction,
headed by the New York delegates,
UNFOLDING the principle that all ar
ticles commonly included in the med
ical stock of the pharmacist, and not
of proprietary nature, should be rec
ognized in the pharmacopoeia, and
definite standards and tests suitable
for the use of the practicing pharma-
cist should be provided for them, in
spite of the fact that their therapeu-
teal properties may not commend
them to the better informed practi-
toner Of medicine. The delegates
maintain that the drugs left out would
still be used by many physicians and
it would be dangerous to leave them
without protection of legal standard.

would Danish the Horse.

Thomas A. Edison says there is alb
solutely no reason why horses should
be allowed within the city limits. for.
between the gasoline and electric car,
no room is left for them. He thinks
health and cleanliness are working to-
ward such Punishment swiftly.
The Springfield Register takes no
stock in such declarations and proph-
ecies. The world, it says, has enjoyed
fair health and reasonable cleanliness
for centuries, Notwithstanding the sup
ply and use of horses have been in
creasing.
The horse is mans most faithful and
useful servant, and will continue to
live and serve after electric and gas
oline cars have been forgotten. These
cars have their uses. They enable
people In this rushing age to get
there quick and that being done their
mission is performed.
But the horse is mans companion
and friend-he greets his master with
a Whitney and his kindly expressive
eyes rest on his mistress with loving
tenderness. He knows how to answer
to the voice of his driver, and his
movements respond with sympathetic
grace to the sweet voice of his fem
mime rider Who would part with the
family horse for all the electrics and
autos, however agreeable and pleasant
it may be to ride in them?
And then, there is the war horse
champing his bit as the soldier boy
prepares to mount him, and who
stretches his limbs and with swift
steps carries him into the battle-fac-
ing carnage as courageously as the
brave boy who sits upon his back.
And then the race horse-the noble.
thoroughbred steeds whose perform
ances on the speed tracks evokes the
tumultuous applause of the thousands
congregated to witness the contests
for supremacy.
Mr.. Edison may see no reason why
horses should be allowed on city
streets, but they will not be banished
so long as men and women admire
faithfulness and respond to animal
affection.
Multiply the electrics and autos and
the airships; these are all right in their
places and add to the conveniences
and pleasures of life; but they cannot
take the place of the horse which has
become a necessity to man, and has
established his right to be considered
fixture by centuries of usefulness
and faithfulness.
