NEW RULING ON WHISKY.
Consumer Who Buys on Approval
May Be Termed Dealer.

That Individual or concern which re-
ceives on trial and then accepts whisky
shipped by a dealer stands in Jeopardy
of being regarded as a dealer in
whisky. Acceptance of the shipment
is regarded as consummating the sale
on the premises of the purchaser. and
as such making him liable to special
tax liability as liquor dealer. This Is
the manner in which a new ruling of
the commissioner of internal revenue
will operate.
The way to correct this is suggested
to the actual dealer in such whisky
lie is advised that advertisements should
be modified to avoid suggestion OF liabil-
ity for the special tax as liquor dealer
at the various places where such accept
ances occur
The advertisements which convey
this responsibility to the purchaser are
cited as those of numerous whisky
houses offering to ship, on order,
whisky, and If upon trial the same is
not satisfactory it may be returned
and money refunded to the purchaser.

At Annual Banquet They Draw Pic

Warn Public of Children.

Pictures of race of people with
snaggled, jagged-edged. badly-kept
teeth in this country. where the highest
type of civilization is to be found
were drawn by local dentists who
spoke last night at the annual banquet
of the National Capital Dental Society

Dewey Hotel. In this country will be
found, it is declared, a more rapid
degeneration of the teeth than any
other place in the world.

the society at which woman dentists
attended. and woman dentists last
night made their first speeches at a
banquet of the society.

Sketching the history of the entrance
of women into the dental profession,
DIR. Rosalind Moore Balm, the first
woman to speak before the society. de-
clared that the practice of dentistry
dates as far back as 1868 B. c., yet it
was 1863 before women entered this

London Weekly Nation Protests
Against Needless Hardships
to Neutral Shipping.

LONDON, March 6.-The Weekly Ma
ton discusses in it's leading article the
proposed reprisals by the allies against
shipping to and from Germany and asks
by what right England can refuse Ameri-
ca leave to import dyes from Germany
when England herself has issued licenses
to her traders to buy dyes from that
source.
1T seems clear to us that if the navy
receives a general order to arrest all
neutral shipping on suspicion of German
origin or destination for their cargoes,
our prize court and our foreign Office will
not lead uneventful lives the Nation
says.
1t considers that the allies can tighten
the existing siege of German coasts with
out setting up siege against neutral ma
tions or stopping trade (which we do not
declare to be illegal or against which we
do not take measures that international

Speculation Regarding U. S. Purpose.

That the American inquiry will indi-
cate clearly the grounds on which sub
sequent protests will be based was
generally believed in diplomatic cir
cles. 1t was expected the American
government would ask Great Britain
and France for an explanation of their
recent notes, since President Wilson
has spoken of the rather general and
vague policy announced in those com
muncations. and the necessity for dis
covering how the principles expressed
would actually be enforced.
AS yet no reply has been received
from Great Britain to American pro-
posals for the abandonment of sub
marine warfare, the removal of mines
and the shipment of foodstuffs and
conditional contraband to Germany
under supervision that would guaran-
tee their distribution to the civilian
population only.
