Suicide With BichIOdde Of Mercury.

Some weeks ago considerable
publicity was giys.fssi case Of ac-
cidental poisoning from hlchlorid
of mercury tablets. The case
was so featured as to lead the
public to infer that corrosive
sublimate poisoning was not
only sure but also painless
route To the other world. Since
this accident, the papers have
chronlclei, almost daily, cases o.
suicide IN which bichlorid Of
mercury was tire drug used.
There is no doubt that many un-
stable persons who, in fits of Dc
preston contemplate suicide, are
restrained from taking the fatal
step by the dread of the unknown
agony they may suffer in com.
hitting 1T. 10 such, the know
ledge of a sure and painless
method of death removes the
only restraining Influence left.
1t is fitting then, saws The Journ-
al of the A nerican Medical As So
citation, that the public should
know that there are few modes
of suicide more painful and in
which the agony is longer drawn
out than that due to the taking
of bichlorid of mercury. If this
fact were given the same pub
licity that was accorded the case
of accidental poisoning, there is
little doubt that the corrosive
sublimate method If self-iestruc-
tion would cease to be the fatsI
fad 1T has recently become.

The price of any article you buy is
based upon the cost of production plus
the cost of distribution or getting the
goods to the ultimate consumer. With
out advertising it is utterly impossi-
bic to secure anything like as wide

the introduction of product even to
limited number of dealers is accom-
pllshed only at great expense and la
Dor.

But advertising greatly multiplies the

Properly directed advertising helps
to encourage the sale of goods and
thus enable the producer to lower his

Mr. Dilftng CHAM, who YVES chairman Of the

Of the Burnett Dillingham; bill vetoed by Presi-
dent Taft, estimates that his new metIcd Of

Greece and Turkey, and would at the same time
allow an increase in the number Of immigrants
who might enter from Germany. Great Britain,
Sweden, Norway and all countries OF Northern
and Western Europe.
In this connection Is pertInen. a statement
issued last night by the commisso ner- neral
of immigration declared that the present immi-
grafton law scarcely excludes any except those
afflicted with serious mental or physical defects
and has but little effect in reducing the great
influx OF aliens. "Notwthsta nding the manda-
tory provisions OF the law" said the statement
at has been difficult in the past to deport even
when aliens are mentally or physically defective
1t has become customary for friends or philan-
thropic societies to appeal In behalf OF rejected
aliens and in taking such appeals little or no
consideration Is given to the merits OF the case"
During the last fiscal year, the statement add
