EXPLANATION OF
THE NARCOTIC LAW
Good Faith and Judgment Must Be
Used in Granting and Fill
ing Prescriptions.

BURLINGTON, March 30. john !
Donovan OF. Boston, representing the
federal government, explained the rul-
mgs of the anti-narcotic law to the
physicians and druggists of the citv at
the medical building, answering cues
tions in regard to the law and enumer
ating many of the unintentionaI viola
tions of the law, due to imperfect
knowledge of it.
One of the most frequent violations
s the too frequent writing of prescrip-
tions for the same person. This is not
IN good faith, experiments showing that
three grams of morphine a dav will
mpregnate the body so that no more
is needed. Therefore, if more is pre-
scribed, it is not done in good faith
If, however, in the physician IS opinion
more is needed, and he acts in GOOD
faith, the government will take his
word for it. The government does uot
intend to dictate what the physician
an or shall do. The relation Of
physician and patient should be estab-
lished, and the case diagnosed. then
proper judgment should be used
Physicians must keep track of the
amount of narcotic used, registering
he name of the patient, and what the
narcotic is used for. They must also
keep track of what they direct nurses
o give, whether in hospital or NOT
even in addition TO the hospital record
Nurses cannot keep narcotics excent
nder the direction of a physician. Pre-
criptions compounded cannot he 70

ANDES SANK THE GREIF.
British Converted Cruiser Given Credit
for Destroying Raider.

LONDON, March 20. = The British
converted cruiser Andes gets the credit
for sinking the German raider Greif in
the North Sea, Feb. %, in additional
details of the battle published yester-
day. After the British armed merchant
man Alcantara had engaged the Greif
and been rendered helpless by a shell
which shattered her rudder, one of her
eonsorts, the Andes, appeared and made
it impossible for the Greif to escape.
Shells swept the deck of the German
raider, driving the men from some OF
her guns.
The raider fired several torpedces
which the Andes escaped through skill
full handling. While thus engaged a
third British vessel of the light cruiser
type, attracted by the sound of firing,
appeared ON the scene. Although at a
great distance the cruiser had already
joined in the action, her gunners find
ing tho range and hitting the target
with remarkable precision.
But the Andes had the Greif afre
fore and aft and the raider blew W
with terrific explosion, the theory be-
ing that she carried a cargo of mines
which ignited when the fire reached
them. The captain of the light cruise,
congratulated the Andes and gave hel
the credit for sinking the Greif.

Two Young Men Shot 3oo-Pound Men
ster on Tucker Mountain.

Dana Rounds and Charles Addison
of Hill, n. H., ON Sunday captured a
wild boar on the slope of Tucker
mountain. The animal weighed 500
pounds and measured seven feet with
tusks which We're six inches long. He
IS believed to be one Of the largest
ever shot in the state.
The boar probably escaped from Cor
bin Park and for nearly two years
there have been evidences of the pres
ence of wild bears on the mountains.
The young men came across the ami
NAL S tracks on Sunday and following
them they soon saw the big beast
. which was unable to travel with nor
NAL speed on account of the snow being
so deep and soft.
The men on snow shoes were fast
overtaking the boar when he turned
and charged on them. Both mer

ing their cartridge belts before they
concluded to approach their game
Eight ballets had taken effect.

WATCH SORE THROATS

because swollen glands or lnf1amed
membranes often affect other tissues
and lung trouble easily follows.
AS Natures corrector of throat
troubles the pure cod liver oil in SCOTS
Emulsion is speedily converted into
germ-resisting tissue; its tested glycer-
inc is curative and healing, while this
wholesome emulsion relieves the
trouble and upbuilds the forces to resist
tubercular germs and avert the weak

If any member of your family has a
tender throat, get bottle of SCOTS

it to avert throat troubles, overcome
bronchial disorders and strengthen
the lungs. No alcohol or harmful
drugs. Always insist on SCOTS.
