How to Get Whisky
For Use as Medicine
Joking Journalists Long and Difficult
Process

The Pharmacal Advance reprints
the following from the New York
Globe. II gives some reporters
slightly imaginative idea of difficult
ties that must be overcome to secure
whisky for medicinal purposes. While
his description of the necessary red
tape is somewhat exaggerated, doubt
less to many it seems about correct
when they compare the present law
with the old free and easy way of Sc
curing whisky to be used as 'medi-
cine"
Collector Edwards has announced
the rules under which liquor may be
purchased, for medicinal purposes, UNI
der the revised, rcvamped and rein
forced Prohibition amendment. The
complete proceeding follows:
81. Patient develops a slight cold.
80. Speaks to wife about it; ex-
presses opinion that hot whisky might
cure it, and suggests hurry call for the
doctor.
%. Wife suspects taking, and ad-
ministers white pine syrup and hot
lemonade.
"a. Patient develops grippe.
"5. Wife becomes alarmed and
sends for family physician.
IS. Family physician satisfies self
that patient is not camouhaging, but
calls in nine other physicians, as re-
quircd by law, to verify his findings
and indorsc the prescription for a
half-pint.
81. Bertillon expert is called to take
finger prints, foot prints, nose prints
and breath prints of patient, all of
which must be affixed to prescription
for purposes of Identification.
IS. Patient is then required to FIJI
out whisky prescription QUESTIONABLE,
giving date of birth, color of fathers
hair, number of cousins who were adj
dictcd to drink, date on which he took
first sip of Intoxicating liquors, num-
Der of times arrested for drunkenness,
complete list of severe colds, etc, etc.
SO. Patient develops Spanish inhu-
enza.
40. Physicians then send finger
prints, QUESTIONABLE, etc, to Washing
ton to the Senate committee for the
investigation of prescriptions for colds
in the head and lungs.
al. Committee will summon pa
tent to Washington for congress

CONCERNING PROOFS
CIDES

(The Chicago Evening Post)
The liquor men of Great Bril-
tain are launching a campaign
against Prohibition. A conspic-
uous feature of it is a carica-
turc of Uncle Sam with an "irn-
mense proboscis." If this be a
sample of the wit and wisdom
engendered by beer, the British
may well pray to be delivered
from the rule of the brewery.
When it comes to a question of
proboscides the prize must be
awarded alcohol for having pro-
duccd the most appalling speci-
mems which have ever dishgured
the human face. Unless Great
Britain follows the example of
Uncle Sam, the time may come
when the British nose will be
pointed to by a sober world as
the last and luminous warning
againts the follies of booze adj
diction.
