DEPT or AGRICULTURE
ISSUES \ FEW DON'TS

Washington, July 15.-Wouldst be
a dope fiend? If you entertain such
a desire the way to fulfill it is to par
take of medicated soft" drinks at
the seductive soda counter, snuffle
"catarrh powder" into the nostrils, or
take a so-called tobacco cure"
Nearly all of such preparations will
lead to the dope" habit. according to
scientists of the department of agri-
culture. Here is the department
list of "don'ts:"
If you are thirsty, beware of the
medicated soft drinks.
II you have a baby in your house
don't give 1t soothing syrup"
II you want to get out of the to-
bacco habit, don't take an advertised
cure"
If you catch cold, have the hay fe-
yer or are troubled with catarrh
don't take patent medicines to head
1t off.
II you do any of these apparently
harmless things you may get the
dope" habit.
The warning has been given by the
department in a remarkable pamph-
| let Just issued TO fight shy of al
patent medicines. Some are harm
less. Of course. but the expert cham
lists of the department declare that
"as a rule" many of the medicateo
| soft drinks. the soothing cyrup," the
catarrh, tobacco, consumption, cold
| and other cure-alls contain sucf
drugs as cocaine. morphine, acetanil'
| id. acffein or chloral. The innoceh'
| purchaser of a patent medicine may
discover, after taking several bottles
of certain remedy that he has de-
veloped an appetite for it. He car

words, he becomes dope fiend anc
