 It appears that many people iahoring under the impression that the open sea son for doves and white wings will be- gin this year. as in the past, on the first of June. and while it is almost incou- ceivable that the rational human being could find any sport or satisfaction in destoying any useful species of bird dur ing its nesting sssson just because thsy think there is no law forbidding it, still the fact remains'',hat there are d consid- cradle number who will do SO

When a thirsty person in Kansas in
the next good old summer time orders
orangeade, grapine, lemonade or any
other soft drink that l. supposed to be
made from fruit Juice, the soda jerker
must furnish some real fruit juice in
what he sells or be called on the car
pet in the state board of health.
The board has just announced a
ruling that any drink which takes its
name from a certain fruit must con-
tin rNme Of that fruit. No limitations
allowed. Such an order was issued
some years ago regarding lemonade
but the new one extends to other fruit
conc ctions. Certain circus stands
formerly made a dozen lemons last a
week or two and they sold hundreds

gallons of perfectly good imitation
lemonade into a sewer and since then
all lemonade has been the real thing
If the board knew anything about it.
But the makers OF soft drinks found
that by sing tartaric acid, some
orange flavor and a little color that
they could make orangeade without
oranges and have been doing It for
scr time. But hereafter orangeade
must contain real orange juice. Crap

fruits that are named from the fruit
but often do not contain any Of them.
Putting up sign or a label on the
bottle does not absolve dealers from
the ruling as limitations are prohibited

Topeka Is Expandin

w. o. Rfgby, postmaster, made q re-
port which showed that there are prac-
tically the same number of vacant
houses in Topeka at the present time
as was the case in 1909. Allowing five
persons to a house, there must be 8,185
persons occupying the houses erected in
the six year period. 1t Is true that there
are vacant houses In Topeka, but they
are for the most part old fashioned. too
large or run down. In certain sections
of the city-notably the district in the
vicinity of Washburn co1lege-it Is next

the present time.

houses and for this reason a large num-
Der OF old dwellings have been remodel

Topeka police that they made 1900
arrests during the past year might
seem to indicate that the capital Of
Kansas is a place of the lawless rather
than of the law and order variety.sBut

an average of only 9 arrests a day,

THE RULES OF WAR.

1.-The rules of war are as sharply de-
fined, as clearly formulated and as
generally recognized as the rules OF
football, baseball. cricket. or the prize
ring. The only important difference is
that in the game of war there is no
umpire or referee with power to en-
force his decisions. and consequently
the rules may be. and often are. vio-
lated" says the January Popular Me-
chanics Magazine.
I'm the beginning of things and down
to very recent times indeed, there were
no restrictions. definite or implied, upon
the rights of commanding general or
the powers Of his army. They might
and did-pillage and loot and burn
and destroy as. and when. they pleased.
No man, woman or child owing allegi-
ance to the enemy had any rights which
a hostile force was even morally bound
to respect. Leave them neither root
nor branch was the universal rule of
war. AS mankind reached a higher
stage Of civilization, war gradually be-
came more humane-or. rather. less
barbarous. Acts that had always been
recognized not only as the right, but al
most as the duty, of armies in the field
came. century by century. to be re-
garded as at least unsportsmanlike., 1t
was not until the Civil war in America,
however. that any nation. undertook to
formulate. codify. and publish a set of
rules for the guidance of those who
play the game Of war. In 1853, the war
department Of the United States is
sued a manual Of the laws governing
civilized warfare-a manual which,

equipment Of every officer in the United
States army. A year later an interna-
tional conference was held at Geneva.

to the care of the sick and wounded,

lated rules Of war. Several other con-
ferences followed this one. but the

SNIINARCOI1C Ill PASSES.
The Harrison bill for the suppress
sion Of illicit trade in forming
drugs passed the house of representa-
tives week or SO ago. after having
been before congress for two years.
The first and second Harrison bills
regulating the manufacture and inn
portation Of habit-forming drugs
passed both houses at a previous SEES
sion. The third measure. to regulate
the interstate sale of opium and CO.
cain preparations, passed both houses
last summer. but on account of con-
fiicting amendments was referred to q
conference committee. This commit
tee agreed on a-'report which was
adopted by the senate. When the re-
port came up in the house in the last
hours Of the recent session. the Ques-
ton OF no quorum was unfortunately
raised, and the house adjourned with
out action. The bill consequently

sale of habit-forming drugs to persons
desiring them for legitimate purposes.
The difficulty has been SO to word the
measure as to prevent Illicit traffic in
these drugs without interfering with
their legitimate use by physicians and
others. AS the bill passed the house
in June, 1919, it exempted from the
operation of the law the dispensing or
distribution of habit-forming drugs
by physicians, provided the physician
in each case was personally attendant

modified in the senate to require that
the physician should have been en-
ployed for the particular patient re-
ceiving such drug and that the drug
should be dispensed in good faith. The
bill as agreed on by the conference
committee and as finally passed ex-
empts the dispensing or distribution
by physicians of drugs containing
opium or coca leaves or any Of their
derivatives. provided the physician
keeps a record Of all such drugs dis
pcnsed or distributed. showing the
amount dispensed. the date. the name
and the address of the patient. If,
however, the physician Is in personal
attendance on the patient. such a rec
ord is unnecessary. Physicians and
all others buying drug preparations
containing opium or cocain must or
der them on forms to be issued by the
commissioner of internal revenue.
But physicians prescriptions are spe-
officially exempt. AS has been fire.
quently pointed out, II is not in any
sense a regulatory measure, and the
amount of good that it will or can ac-
complish will depend entirely on the
local police regulations and the meth
DDS adopted by states and cities to en-
force such regulations. But after
years Of long, patient effort and many
revisions, the bill as passed is. in the
judgment of The Journal of the Amer
lean Medical Association. probably the
best that can be formulated under ex
listing conditions. t
