merchant, of course, does not make that
mistake. On the contrary he pushes
things. By attractive, persistent adver-
tising, and by keeping up his stock of

"A Franklin grocer, was tried on
Wednesday for violation of the pure
food laws, and the court made decision
that will be of interest to all dealers who
rely on certificates printed on labels for
protection. He was accused OF having
sold cherries that had been treated With
sulphuric acid and chemical tests made
showed the cherries contained such stuff.
The grocer put in defense that he was
not responsible and could not be fined
as the package contains label guarantee
ing the goods pure as required by law.
However, the court held that as these
labels we're not signed by hand and we're
printed or stamped, they were not worthy
of attention. The jury after being out
