MEDICAL FAKES.

The United States government has
just secured q verdict in the federal
district court for the Minneapolis dis.
trict against the vendor of a prepar-
alton known as a microbe killer, and
advertised to cure consumption, can
Ger, catarrh, yellow fever, smallpox
and leprosy. The suit was brought un.
der a new amendment to the pure
food law which prohibits the false and
fraudulent branding of medicine, and
20 important was the a s believed to
be that the governments new pure
food man, DR.. AlsberE. came in per-
son to attend the trial.
The medicine which is claimed to
have such wonderful curative prop
critics is on its face fraudulent, and
its manufacturers place it on the mar
ket knowing it to be a fraud, and for
the purpose of %beneiting themselves
by. the commission Of a fraud. M
medicine can cure 80 many diseases.
No medicine known can cure any OF
those named. And, in the case OF
most preparations advertised to cure q
long list Of diseases. It IL found on an
alysfs that they have no curative prop
critics whatever . In almost ali cases
they are found to be composed of
we'll known drugs, harmful or harm
less AZ the ease may be. but as a rule
ihpregnated with narcotic or other
poisons for the purpose Of numbinx
the nerves and causing a false belief
that there has been an Improvement
In the conditions. Thousands Of drug
victims have received their start on
the downward road from the use of
some Of these nostrums.
The government. in its effort to
stamp out this ABDOMINAL trafac, is en-
gaged in q laudable work which
should have the support of all good
citizens. There has already been vast
improvement. Poisonous drugs which
were freely peddled at one time have
dtsappeared from the market and
the public is getting to have a clearer
and sener knowledge Of the things
that pertain to health. But there are
still persons who are easily victimized,
and it will take time and effort to
weed out all the fakes.

Editor Clarion:
Your interview in last weeks
Clarion, with the gentleman
from Indiana, certainly strikes
the keynote Of the good roads
situation of this parish.
A drainage-tax which would
comprise il IA district The par
ishes of Acadia Lafayette and
st. Landry; would bring, more
lasting benefit to not oily our
public roads, but ALSO to the
lands of these parishes, than any
similar amount invested in any
other way. But Acadia and La
fayette must also dredge out
their low lands and bayous, as a
large part of our water goes
through these parishes. | pre-
dict that before ten years such a
tax will be levied.

MIR. Doucet Gives Reason
OF His Resignation
AS Tailor

Opelousas, La, Feb. 8, 1918.
Editor Clarion:
Will you permit me to correct
your statement in your issue of
even date, relativelto my resign
alton as Tailor?
I did not resign voluntarily.
Mine was an enforced resigna-
ton, such as we read about now
a-days.
The facts are: During the last
campaign Sheriff Swords prom
ised me this position for four
years. This caused me, my
friends and my family, to leave
no stone unturned to secure his
election. We not only gave our
time, but spent our money freely
in that direction.
Last January, Rhe Sheriff de-
manded my Resignation. / re-
fused to hand fn same, until /
was paid the entire amuuffkd due
me. This done, I had to resign
or be fired.
In connection herewith I desire
to say / have in my possession
letters from the Foreman Of
every Grand Jury who visited
the building during my. incum-
bency, to the effect that they
always found the same in a SAN
itary condition.
In conclusion, / desire to state
that whilst / am averse to news
paper controversies, yet / must
explain to my friends and the
public, the reason that provoked
my resignation. | repeat, it was
simply a question of resigning
or being fired, and | concluded
to adopt the former method.
