RIGHT TO BAR ''CURES"
DISPUTED BY MAKERS
Much Interest in Decision of
Patent Medicine Case Before
U. S. Supreme Court.

In the 500 cases that the Department
of Agriculture has contested in enforc-
ing the pure food law, but three Of them
Court, and the most important of these
is to be fought on the ground that the
government has not the right to declare
a patent medicine ''misbranded" on the
fact of misleading statements made on
the wrapper or label.
Certain diseases, such as cancer and
tuberculosis, have been declared incura-
BILE by the medical profession. The study
of these diseases is progressing and ad-
vances are being made in treating them,
but the profession, as a whole, agrees
that there is no such thing as a gen.
eral cure for them in the sense that
the claim is made in patent medicine ad-
vertisements. The pure food law says
that a drug is to be deemed misbranded
when the statements made about 1t on
the label are false and misleading in
any particular" Most of the patent
medicine firms have agreed to the ruling
word cure" from their compounds.
There is case of cancer cure to come
up in the Supreme Court, however, and
on the outcome Of this will depend the
right of the department to bar Such
cures" from interstate commerce The
department holds that the claims made
for this compound are false and mis-
leading" within the meaning of the law,
and that 1t is only by applying this gen.
eral test that patent medicines can be
reached at all. The view that the SUI
preme Court will take of the matter is
being awaited with interest as having
a vital bearing on the enforcement of
the pure food and drug act.

Wife Says Husband Well UNDERWOOD

BY the terms of the will Of Jessica
Penn Hunter, dated September s, 1910.
her husband, j. X. Hunter, is given his
choice of such keepsakes as he would
care to. have in memory of her. Her
remaining estate is left to her father and
mother, and at their death to her daugh-
ter, Claudeska Penn Engiert.
Mrs. Hunter explains that her hus-
band would have no use for the little
she possessed, and will understand that
the exclusion from sharing in her estate
is through no lack of love for him. She
especially charges her mother that the
husband be justly treated.
She directs that her parents be in abso-
lutte possession of her estate during life,
but requests that her daughter be per-
mitted to share in it's use.
Mrs. Hunter was graduated from the

winning honorable mention for moot court
work. She expected to take the bar ex-
animation this fall.

GREATEST HAPPINESS
NOT FOR PRESIDENT
Note of Sadness in Address
Taft Delivers to
Boys.

CINCINNATI, September 24.-There
was just a little sadness Juggling at the
occasion when President Taft went back
to school yesterday morning, got up in
class as he had done these many years
ago and spoke his piece. Some of the
boys of the house Of refuge, which he
visited after the session at old Woodward
School, could not understand why the
President faltered before responding to
this remark from an eight-year-old:
I'm going to try to be President when
I grow up
The President took his text few min
utes later from the boys suggestion,
saying:
Not Greatest Happiness.
There are places that give more hap
piness to men than President of the
United States. 1t is enough for you to
grow up to be good men and women, to
be always honest, kindly and to do right
The satisfaction you can get in that life
is much greater than being President.
Il don't know whether l can convey
to you the thought that comes into my
mind and that must come into the mind
OF every patriotic man who sees you
here 1t is one OF tenderest considers
tlOn Tor you-tfe earnest wish that you
may rise above the misfortunes you
have suffered and improve the oppor-
tunities given by the lessons you have
received here"
Visit to Old School.
President Taft had to make sight
draft on memory to call back the old
school when he viewed the modern
structure yesterday morning. He respond
ed to the call of the % o'clock bell' and
found awaiting him the regiment Of
scholars, to whom he said:
1T is great privilege given to me
to sit at the feet of the teachers of
Woodward, where 1 learned to know the
value of education and to understand
the necessity of application to obtain it.
1 was happily able to find myself in a
community where if l wanted an ac-
acknowledgement of my importance I had
to hammer it out myself. It was a true
democracy, in which nobody had re-
ward who had not earned it, and it was
the best preparation for our American
life. as it gave equal opportunities to all.
and those who improved their oppor-
tunities found themselves near the head"
