EPIDEMIC OF MEDICINE
"jAGS" IN DRY" rOWM

Although Virginia has only been
"dry" since last November, already
that state Is suffering from evils
resulting from prohibition.
From Danvilie, Va, comes this
story to the Baltimore Sun:
SO great has become the demand
here for cartain proprietary medl-
cine which contains rs per cent aI.
cohol, that the city police depart
ment has laid the condition before
the prohibition commissioner. An
investigation ha. lust led to the
discovery that s1r saturday and
Sunday more u t.r' bottles were
sold In Danvi ~ schoolheId.
The police ha. ~ deal with more
drunkards this week than durinp
the entire month Of January and
each man admitted that he became
intoxicated on the medicine.
A local druggist has written to
the commissioners asking II the sale
Of the medicine Is legitimate and
the Rev. j. Sidney Peters has said
there was no provlso In the dry
law preventing the sale Of medl-
clnes Of this kind.
Lemon extract, with 90 per cent
alcohol, 10 running a close second
to the medicine and a number OF
"lemon drun!Ss" have been ar.
rested. -.
