What's Found in Drugs.

Five tons of olive pits were re-
ceived in New York customs Office
not long ago. They were consign-
ed to a dealer in crude drugs who
declared they were to be used in
the manufacture of a patent chick
en- food.
The customs officials did not be-
lieve the mans declaration, and re-
ported the instance to government
chemists at Washington. Within a
few weeks the chemists began to
sample and tests the drugs made
by this firm.
They bought belladonna anG
found it half olive pits. They tried
poke root and the olive pits com
prised 80 per cent; eentian was all
olive pits; ipecac was 40 per cent
olive pits.
Isaac Russell, in Pearson'S maya
zine for June, gives the above in
stance as an example of how drugs
are being adulterated in the UniteC
States.
And all the time" says Russell

Building & Loan.

Several have told the Democrat
that they want shares in a Build
ing and Loan Association. 1t is
much needed here at this time BY
the organization of one here many
of our people will in a few years
own their home and will scarcely
know when they paid for the home.
1t is true they can 60 on paying
rent, but this they can do for a life
time and never own their home.
A Building and Loan Association
will be the means of building more
residences here and that is greatly
to be desired. Think the matter
over and then tell the Democrat
how many shares you want.

jefferson City, Mo, June 8. A

tiary at jefferson City for twenty
years, was raided yesterday by Gov
eminent Inspector Edward j. Nc
Hugh Of St. Louis. Mods, tirepots,
spurious coins and other paraDher-

prisoners arrested. Both confessed
having made spurious half dollars,
quarters and Scent pieces.
The plant, Inspector McHugh de-
clares has been in the penitentiary
for twenty years and has been
handed down from prisoner to pris-
oner The men arrested are Lee j.
Jayne, a five-year man from Kan
Sas City, and Joseph Vail, another
long-term prisoner from there.
A quarrel between four prisoners
occupying the same cell regarding
the division of the spoils was re-
SpOnSible for the raid.

Grand olive pits are not the only
stomach irritant the sick are likely
to reserve when they call for some
thing soothing" says the writer,
and he Culls from many govern
ment investigations a long series in
which the adulterants range all the
way from plain river sand to brok-
EN- twigs and stems of shrubs.
In henbane, % per cent of the
supposed drug was sand. In anise,
a stomach stimulant, sand formed
IS per cent. Cumin, of which only
the fruit is valuable, contained four
parts of stem and chaff. Belladon-
ma was found to be four parts Chaff

1t Makes Both.

A business magazine recently
asked its readers; Can ads make
sales, or only prospects, and of
course there were as many shades
of opinion given in answer as there
were writers participating in the
symposium. The fact is that good
advertising in strong mediums, for
reasonably-priced articles of gener-
al consumption makes both sales
and prospects" Newspaper pub
licity as a rule makes more than
enough immediate sales to pay for
itself, and the prospects" are so
much velvet" The half-convinced
readers of today's advertisement
are persuaded by the presentation
of the proposition in a new light TO-
morrow The extra profit to be de-
rived from the prospect" is lost
