poison gas is practically impossible, how
ever, little of this Is tried when masks
are being worn.
"These masks filter out or neutralize al
most all known poison gases that are prac-
ticabe for use In warfare The exceptions
are mustard gas, carbon dioxide-and
chloropicrin.
"Since few German gas masks have been
placed on exhibition in this country they
must be pictured as possessing practically
the same features as the Allied masks, with
one important exception. The German mask
covers both the mouth and nose, thus maxi
ing it impossible for the Hun to exhale or
eXpectorate while still protecting his nose,
The Importance Of this will be seen shortly.
"The two gases, chloropicrin and phos-
gene, used in the mine, possess violent but
different qualities. Choropicrin is fatal as
one of the 'paralyzing group (others in this
class are cyanogen, arsne and phosphine)
when taken in large quantities. Since it is
almost impossible to inhale much of it be-
cause of the terriically nauseating quail
ties, however, this may be passed by Be-
cause the inhalation Of ten cubic cent?
metres of chloropcrin gas makes a man
sicker 70 his stomach than Neptune at his
worst, or than any other known emetic, the
gas was elected for use in this mine.
"Phosgene is the most deadly of the lung
gases (others of which are chlorine and
mustard gas). 1t kills almost as quickly
as cyanogen, and only one-twentieth as
much need be inhaled as must be taken in
of chlorine in order that death may ensue.
Phosgene, however, is excluded both by the
German and Allied masks

Supply and demand, Of course, regulate
prices in all lines of business. The drug
market Is intensely sensitive. Prices NAV
change radically overnight There has been
a good deal of shifting back and forth, but
on the whole the price tendency has been
steadily downward
Take acetphenatidn, a compound used
extensively in headache remedies and be-
for the war made almost exclusively in Ger
many. The price history in that case is one
OF the most sensational there is In the
summer of 1914 you could buy this stuff for
80 cents pound. Fifteen months later the
price had gone up to SAP pound. That
Will give you some conception of our lack
Of chemical unpreparedness in this country

NOW acetphenatidin, or phenacetine, as it is
more popularity known, can be bought for
$3.50 pound

1t applies to a vast number of other prod

sibie for this. We used fagrantly to waste
our toluol Now, though. the munitions
people, the steel industries. the coke ovens,
all have buckled to the task, and the whole
drug industry is benefting in consequence.
The cultivation of many herbs never be-
fore grown in this country, simply because
we were content to let Germany do the work
for US, also has been undertaken on large
scale. Throughout the East and Middle

ing an exhaustive survey of the world
field preparatory to submitting his re-
port. He says:
"The results will, I think, convince even
the most reluctant. They exceed anything we
dared to hope for when we first embarked
upon this adventure back in 1914. They ex-
ceed even anything we dared hope for when
we held our last annual convention, in Chi
cago, q wear ago.
AT that time the worst of the price in
stability had been pretty we'll got in hand
We knew that despite our former unpre-
paredness IN this field, we could cope with
the situation at home. We began to see
that we could cope with it not alone for the
selves permanently from dependence on
Germany. We did not then, though. have
any assurance, have now that we
could go out into the world market compet-
ing for world trade on equal terms with
Germany or anybody else.
VERY few people realize just how much
this means. Drugs are to them q dry sub
ject. Or else they think of them simply as
narcotics. They do not realize how init
mately and indlspensably the products COM
pretended in the drug industry are con-
nected with every commonest article of
everyday use. There is. though, scarcely a
thing that you wear, handle, smell, see from
the time you get up till you go to bed that
is not in sense dependent upon some drug
which is included in its composition.

n SEVERAL occasions Paris
b has been bombarded by
Gothas; more attacks may
be expected. Excellent meas
ures have been taken to protect the
population when the alarm is given. But
what is the alarm? Of what compli-
Gated system is it the result? How can
il be given in time to enable every one
to get to place of safety?" These ques-
uons are asked by Lectures Pour Tous''
(Paris), which answers them itself as
follows:
~The alarm, There is not Partisan now

quick rhythm. Ten, fifteen, twenty minutes
later the first explosions are heard in the
distance. Only public service automobiles
are in the streets; they carry officials
concerned in the work of protection of the
city and frenen hurrying to points where
the bombs had dropped. Besides these
one sees Health Department ambulances
and the automobiles Of the departments of

telephones, carrying workers on their way

What has happened during the fifteen

in which to find shelter?
About thirty kilometres beyond our

They have their loads of bombs of all

There are some old aeroplanes that can
