Misbranding of
 Drugs Unlawful.
DECISION OF SUPREME COURT
 ENDS TEN YEAR LITIGATION
IN INTERSTATE TRADE
Numerous Actions Against Drug Con- eerns Are Expected to Follow Deei- sion Against Chicago Drug Com pany.

Washington, Jan. 10.-After ten years of legislation and litigation, the supreme court decided today that con- gress had enacted finally a constitu- tional law regulating statements as to the curative effects of medicines in in- prepared by Justice Hughes. Numer- ous actions against drug concerns are expected to follow.
 Misbranded Drugs.
 For a time it was urged by govern 'ment officials that the 1906 pure food law designed as misbranded drugs or medicines which were accompanied in interstate commerce by knowingly false statements about the curative ef- fects of the compounds. The supreme court decided, however, that the 1906 law applied only to mtsbranding as to the identity or composition of drugs.
 SherIey Amendment.
 Tn response to a resulting message enacted the Sherley amendment, which the supreme court held today struck precisely at misstatements either on the label or in printed circulars ac- companying medicines.
 We find no ground" said Justice Hughes, flor saying that congress may not condemn interstate transportation of swindling preparations accompanied by false and fraudulent statements al well as lottery tickets"
 False and Fraudulent Statements.
 The justice held that congress had not entered the field of difference oi opinions between schools and practi- tioners, but had merely sought to ex- clude false and fraudulent" state ments from interstate commerce. H. held the law was not speculative iT its nature, because intent to deceive was a fact as susceptible as other factl in everyday life.
 Against Chicago Drug Concern.
 The decision was announced in thu case of a Chicago drug concern whicl shipped medicine from Chicago tt Omaha described in an accompanying circular as compound which it knev had cured and would cure tuberculosis The government proceeded under tn Sher1ey amendment to confiscate tn product and the Nebraska federal dis trict court condemned the shipments This action was affirmed today by tn supreme court.

TODAY'S BEAUTY HINT

II r. not necessary to shampoo
quite so frequently II your hair Is
properly cleansed each time by use
-of a really good shampoo. The
easiest to use and quickest drying
shampoo that we can recommend
to our readers may be prepared
very cheapiy by dissolving a tea
spoonful OF canthro1. obtained
from your druggist. in a cup OF hot
water. This rubbed into the scalp
creates a thick lsther. soothing and
cooling in its action. as well as
beneficial to scalp and hair. After
rinsing, the scalp is fresh and
clean, while the hair dries quickly
and evenly, developing a bright
luster and soft fluffiness that
makes II seem very heavy.
