Whose Word is Better
Than Your Druggists?
Physicians Dentists Rely Him. That Sufficient
Reason for Public Confidence?

There are many good reasons for
the confidence the public repose in
their druggist. First, he is educated
to know by four years OF College
and Practical training. Second, ethi-
cal physicians everywhere rely i'm
plichtly on his skill-they trust him
This faith, of course, originates and
is maintained by the professional
service rendered by the druggist in
filling prescriptions. Everyone ad
nits this confidence when offering
a prescription to druggist
Very few men can be honest in
one department of their business, and
dishonest in the other DR. Jeky
and Mr. Hyde exist very little in real
life If you trust your druggist %
fill your prescription, therefore, in
all fairness, you must accept his word
against the word of unknown and
far distant manufacturers.

Words and Music.

The value Of words is going up, at
least in Rouen. There the courts
have decided that the artistic values
of The words and music of a poem are
equal At present in the United
States and Canada the writer of the
words of a song gets only a pittance
of the royalties or a small sum out

Of the most popular ballads have
brought their writer's no more than
two or three guineas, while the com.
poser goes on cashing his royalty
checks for years. What measure pub
fishers apply to the two arts thus
combined to make words so much less
valuable than music is rather hard to
understand. Verse writer's might well
send little gold medal to the just
minded citizens Of Rouen who have
ruled it a false one.

ANOTHER MOONEY CASE

Are we to have in the state Of washington
another Mooney case. multiplied several timesr Let us

During a patriotic parade in San, Francisco a bomb
was thrown, killing several people. Several persons noto-
rious rs members Of or sympathizers with Red orsani-
nations were arrested for completely in the murders, and
Mooney and others were convicted. But long before the
trial. and before there was any public knowledge of what
evidence the state would present, there went up from ali
over the country vociferous declarations Of the innocence
Eof the accused persons, and particularly Of the innocence
Of Tom Mooney. These declarations of innocence came
from all sorts Of persons who knew nothing whatever
about the case. but their ignorance Of the facts seemed
only to strengthen their conviction. They were AZ certain
Of Moneys innocence ashley and their sort had formerly
been of the innocence Of the MacNamaras of some years
earlier. until one Of the MacfSamaras was 80 inconsider-
ate as to make full confession in order to save his own

Several persons have been arrested, at centralis,

such a housekeeping as we have not yet seen. 2
