VIOLATION OF Pure
FOOD Law CHARGED
MEDINA MAN STUNG
BY REMEDY COMPANY
Analysis of Goods Showed Labels to
be Fraudulent. Says State Inspector
Who Piled Affidavits in Local
u Court. a.

The American Remedy Co. of Tifin,
Ohio, pulled off stunt on a Medina
merchant about a year ago that has
resulted in a criminal action being
brought against it by the State. M.
III. Dotter, state inspector for the
Dairy and Food division of the De-
lpartment of Agriculture, was in Me-
dina Tuesday morning and filed two
affivdavits against l.. j. Miller, pres
ident Of the American Remedy Co.,
charging fraud. The affidavits were
were filed with Justice of Peace w.
EP. .Ainsworth.
f The action against the company
was the outcome of a complaint lodg-
Fed with the State Department by c.
I'M. Cannon, a Medina groceryman.
Cannon states that about a year ago
Ihe was approached by a man repre-
senting himself to be an agent Of the
American Remedy Co., authorized to
negotiate contract with Cannon for
the handling Of the company's goods.
These goods consisted Of "Antiseptic'
Healing Powder, and american
Cow Remedy"
According to Cannon the under
Estanding was that he was to handle
the goods wholly on commission
basis, and so far as he observed at
tthe time the contract he signed clear
Ily specified this fact.
Cannon received large consign-
fment Of goods, and incidentally men
tions that he has never been able to
sell even single package. Several
months afterward he received bill
from the company for the entire con-
fsignn1ent of goods. He paid no at
tention to the bill and later received
la sharp letter from a collection
Iagency. This led Cannon to examine
Ibis copy Of the contract, wherein he
discovered in very small print and
tadroftly worded phraseology clauses
that made him liable for payment of
1.-THE bill. He paid it, which amounted
to about $50.
Naturally ranking under the treat
ment he had received, Cannon laid
1.-THE case before the State Department.
| The latter took samples of the Tifin
ECompany's product for analysis, the
4 result sf which, according to Inspec-
4 tor Dotter, warranted to department
ial :institpting legal proceedings
agahast tie company. : 1 81
The department found that the
1labels on packages grossly exaggerat-
ed the medicinal value of the remed-
les, amounting to a misbrand, and
were palpably fraudulent. I
The afidavits state that the Ameri-
can Cow Remedy was adulteratted, in
that its strength, quality and purity
fell below the professed standard un-
der which it was offered for sale, and
was not in accord with the State pure
food law.
A hearing Of the case has been set
for Thursday afternoon, April 81, at
p. M, before Justice Ainsworth.

DODGE THIS PITFALL.

The recognition of woman dominating poll
teal force in this state will be welcomed by the
leaders Of who have worked unselhshly and
courageously for years to procure needed reforms
Those who have assisted in organizing the WON
an power for certain definite principles should find
some occasion for alarm in a recent announcement
that is made from the capital Of the state.
Professional politicians whatever power they
obtain and in the campaign Of Sen New for
denomination, it is announced that he has engaged,
Of his chief aides. the head OF the Parent
Teachers association Of the state.
That organization was founded and has been
maintained for very definite principles.
It has helped to bring the home and the school
closer
It has aroused a sentiment for better educational
methods and for cleaner amusements for children.
It has batted FOR laws in this state which will
protect the child from temptation and broaden the
OF the public school.
Until there is a real contest between who
has stood for the things the association has stood
for. and one whose personal record is denial OF
these aims, this organization IS far valuable to
be sacrificed to purely personal politics.
1t is hardly probable that even the most ardent
supporter OF the present senator will claim his
sympathies and activities in behalf of these reforms
mark him outstanding advocate OF thepl--or
even a better advocate than any other who may try
TO compete with him for the senate.
While political gossip links the OF Beve
ridge the whose influence is feared by New
and whose supporters too altenated by this
move, no other candidate is now in the field.
The who manage politics for have not
hestated to destroy any useful organization or in
it could be used for their purposes OF the
moment
They have been saint and sinner, wet and dry.
puritan and liberal as the shifting winds of the
moment dictated.
The women who have built UP strong Influences
for good should be very careful lest the poluting
hand Of the purely practical politician touch their
handiworll use il to obtain power and then disrupt
and discard it.
Every leader Of this and similar organizations
will undoubtedly have strong opinions in every
election.
The great body OF who compose these
societies and who believe that they serve a real
purpose, will frown any effort to capitalize
their work for selfish ends
One way to avoid this danger will be TO demand
that leader link the name Of her organization
with any purely personal position she may take in
regard 20 candidates
It IS hardly probable that any large number OF
those who believe IN clean amusements and bet
ter education will admit that they depend entirely
upon tho reelection Of New to the senate.

Memory Is to life what the aurora borealis is in

They deal with the famous men and events with

The privilege OF being able to recall association

treasure that goes with TO the grave.
Like the rest Of US. NcKenna may want to revise

Are women elevated power in the business

Il has been history Of all time that the most
