Do you regard cold cream as an
ultra modern palliative?
Or pure food and drug laws as q
comps ratively recent type. Of legis-
lation'
Or tt G familiar cure all" as an up
to-dat" quack device for the twen-
tieth century cfedulous?
You are wrong, according to the
statements contained in bulletin
issued by the National Geographic So
ciety. based upon a communication to
the society from DR.. John A. Foote of
this city A part of the communi-
cation states:
Cold Cream Is Ancient.
Most people at some time or an
other use cold cream. 1t seems quite
modern luxury. indispensable alike
to peer and peri. and adapted to many
and varied uses In fact, one traveller
tells recently of having some of his
cold cream eaten by a fat-hungry
valet in Germany. So we are inclined
to regard it as a fairly modern prod
uct. And yet 'unguentum refrigerans,'
cold cream, has come down to us from
Roman days. The first formula is at
tributed to Galen, who lived and
wrote in the second century. What
we use today is practically the same,
though Doctor Galen's original for
mula was initiated and improved
hundreds of times.
Emperor Frederick II of Sicily. in
1910 or 1241. published the first pure
food and drugs act. He was about 700
years ahead of DR.. Wiley. for he speci-
f1ed strict regulations of the standard
of drug purity. and provided for drug
inspectors. and fined all offenders.
''The practice of medicine was also
regulated. physician was required
to have a diploma from a university
before he could study medicine: then
he took a three-year course in the
school of medicine and one years
practice under a practicing physician.
Special postgraduate work in anat-
omy was required if he was to do
surgery.
"All this was in the so-called dark
ages" Even the fees of physicians
and pharmacists were strictly regu-
lated by law and were in purchasing
value about the same as the CHARGES
of the present day. Physicians were
not allowed to own drug stores and
drug adulterators were severely dealt
with.

An entertainment was be-

Some came on crutches,
some on canes, some in

young fellow was brought
in in the arms of a chum.
This boy lost both his
legs at Chateau Thierry.
They had to be amputated
half way between the knees
and hips.
The rest of his life he will
go about in the arms of a

And yet he is the most

have made a sacrifice that
