Who Otons The Prescription ,
BY WILLIAM BRADY, MD.

A PRESCRIPTION Is a written
~ order from The physician 10 the
pharmacist. which directs the
pharmacist what medicines TO sup
ply and what directions he shall
write upon the label. In the abb
sence OF a specific order to the con-
trary the druggist has no right to re-
MI prescription for the patient
whose name appears upon IL; he has
no right TO fill Il at all for another
person who fancies he has the same
disease.
or course a person has a right to
copy a prescription from any source
available to him and have it filed by
n druggist, but when the druggist
attaches some physicians name to
the label who has never attended or
examined the person purchasing the
medicine, that is an injustice. II
the prescription happens to be the
wrong medicine is one mans
medicine is often another mans

up against the physician who or
iginally wrote the prescription.

are notoriously bad writer's; their
oabalistic signs and abbreviations
are often misinterpreted and some
times deplorable results follow.
The reason why formal prescrip-
tons are written in Latin, rather
than English, is that all scientific
names ar in Latin. Further, Latin
is a dead language which never
changes; il is universal--all doctors
and scientific men the world over
understand more or less Latin. 1t
is retained In prescriptions for the
same reason that Latin is retained
IN the phraseology Of the law and
In the Mass of the Catholic Church.
Not for the purpose Of eoncealing the
names Of medicines from patients, as
is sometimes alleged, for many pa
tients know more Latin than the

The Life Line
The Advanced Daughter
By LAURA KIRxMAN

OF course we sympathize with her
She has worked so hard at school
to acquire correct speech-only to
go home and hear her parents mur-
der the kings English. We are
rather hesitant to brand her heart
less for her repeated and not too
gentle corrections of these discour-
aging parents. But we are not hesi-
tant to brand her foolish, time
wasting, for making these correc-
tions; she is looking for a flower
where no seed has been planted. II
these parents have never known am
bition, how can they show the re-
suits of ambition? Let their daugh-
ter be thankful that she herself pos
sesses the Great Seed, and pity, not
censure, those lacking it. She's tlq.

must retain a copy-not the original.
When he insists upon retaining the
original he generally does so with
the purpose OF forcing you TO return
TO his store In case the prescription
is to be reiilled. But the courts have
declared the prescription the pa
tients property. SO it is up to the
patient to keep 1t If he so desires.
OF course the doctor usually retains
a carbon copy too, and il he deems
II advisable to have the prescription
reflled he can give you another copy
IL necessary.
The words non-repetatnr writ
ten or printed on a prescription
mean Let it not be repeated. When
a druggist consents 10 refill a pre-
scription which bears those words
he is beyond the pale and unworthy
Of confidence.
Recently we came across a queer
concoction which had a well-known
physicians name on the label We
took him to task about II. He re-
pudiated the formula---he had never
prescribed anything like it in his
life. Some one had copied, and some
one else had recopied until the pre-
scription had lost every original
character but the doctors name.

Pluvial Photography

Q. Some three or four months ago
leased building for photograph
studio. The landlord a0oHld not fr
ii up dny, and so paid for the
pdperiRg and painting myself. Nof0
the root has begun to leak In dozen
different places, and u leaks not only
iohen it rains, out for a day or ttoo
afterwWd, as there is q large de-
preston III IL that catches and holds

A. An answer to your questions
must depend great deal upon the
nature of your agreement with your
landlord at the time the premises
were leased. A building should, of
course, be made reasonably habitable
and wherever a legal duty is i'm
posed upon a person, he will be
liable for all damages proximately,
naturally and logically resulting
therefrom. Sometimes the landlord
expressly agrees, at the time the
property is rented, to make all need
full repairs Sometimes the tenant
expressly agrees that he will do so
at his own expense. In still other
cases, there is an implied agreement
one way or the other. If your land
lord, in view OF all the facts and cir
cumstances, was under legal duty
to you. and injury proximately fol-
lowed his neglect thereof, he viii be
