Costs More for Drugs
As Well As For Food

This is sad story for the good
housekeeper. Over the grapevine route
comes the news that all drugs are to
advance in price and this is to include
especially patent medicines. For in
stance, that good old house standby for
that tired feeling, Hostetters bitters,
is now to be sold for $l.25 bottle and
Lydia Pinkham s Vegetable compound
that has been retailed for 81 a bottle
ever since the beginning of time, will
now be handed out at $l.20. The 25
cent toothbrush will be priced at 30
cents and many of the so cent articles
will now be wrapped up and sold at
60 cents. Ever since the Spanish Am
erican war the druggists have been at
tempting to hold prices down but they
have finally been obliged to advance
prices. Henceforth, Peruna, Purola,
pale pink pills and peppermint drops
will cost just little bit more.

automobiles use glaring headlights with
the consequent risk of binding others
and causing accidents, Chief of Police
Cooper is looking closely into the pro-
visions of the state motor vehicle law

cy of the lights. He calls attention to
the law and will enforce it rigidly.
