The manufacture of paints contain
ing adulterants and their sale mas
caused q great amount of criticism. Inc
farmers who paint their barns, and
their homes, and who fnd the paint
cracking and blistering off after a short
time, have no redress. Then Kenyon
bill contains provisions for the labelling
of all paints, showing what they con-
tain.
With the outbreak Of the war, these
measures OF protection to the buyers
of goods were forgotten in the scram-
Bile to Ia legislation to protect the
country. But during the war, the
adulteration of goods Of various kinds
became worse and worse. The prices
of goods have scared, and the quality
of many articles has become so poor
that garments for which double the
price is paid today, do not last half
the length of time that garments pur-
chased in former days did.
The time, in the opinion of Mr..
Rodgers, has come to call on the sale
of m~isbranded, fraudulent goods. One
of the things he Is particularly anxious
to reach is silk. There is a tremen-
dous amount of stuff sold as silk to-
day hat Is adulterated with metallic
substances, and which crack and wear
out within a brief time after they are
purchased and worn. He Is anxious to
have the law deal with these silk"
makers.
If the people are told exactly what
they are buying. and then purchase
.adulterated goods, h a Is up to them,
said Mr.. Rogers. But they are en-
titled to know what they are getting.
Publicity regarding the ingredients of
articles purchased will go far to i'm
prove the grades now turned out, and
also will do much to put al end to
the orgy of prof1teering which has been
going on in this country the last two
or three years. he said. The manu-
~facturers and sellers of misbranded
and adulterated goods nave been the
worst offenders in the way of prof1teer-

should be treated just as surface ~inf1ammations,
such as burns or bruises, are treated-that is, the
medication should be applied directly to the in

directly to the air passages and lungs except in the
form of vapors that can be inhaled, and until the
discovery of Vick's VapoRub, there was no

a way to combine the standard, time-tested rene
