rectly under this bureau.
"One of the most glaring illegallties

Another evil is the fake prescription
scheme, by which, under the pretence
OF advertising Il prescription, pro-
prietary compound is recommended as
the chief ingredient. The other In
gradients are 'trihing,' such, for IN
stance, as hot water. In the past man
ufacturers of proprietary medicines
have had unbridled license in claiming
the impossible for their compounds.
The root of the evil lay in the false
and misleading Advertisements where
by the public was deceived.
Judge Swami said he found his au-
thority TO assume responsibility for
prosecution of fraudulent advertising
in the drug business IN Section All OF
the Penal Law as amended in 1915.
That section" he SAID, condemns
any advertisement which contains any
assertion, representation or state
ment that is untrue, deceptive or mis-
leading" Hitherto cases OF this kind,
on complaint of the Health Depart
ment. have been prosecuted in Special
Sessions by the Corporation Counsel.

women for multitude of cold creams
and face lotions, the third Merchan-
disc, Food, Drug and Chemical EXpOsi-

Other features Of interest are the
samples the saleswomen hand out, with
what-it- did-tous air. The en-
tire main floor OF the Garden is oc-
cupied by booths, the majority of which
are devoted to drugs, since the eXposi-
tion is fathered By the American Drug
gists' Syndicate, holding its tenth an
nual convention in this city.

syndicate 70 take into bcrship 90,
