DRUGGISTS, OLD AND NEW
Vast Changes Have Taken Place In
the Business of the Apothecary,
Through the Years.

Thousands of Americans who love
the study of old London were inter-
eStcd in the news story that the 'Wor-
shipful Company of Apotheearies,"
which for 300 years has had it's shop.
had let the property pass into new
hands. It was stated that almost
next door to Water lane was the Black
fr!ars theater, where Shakespeare and
Burbage played" The assumption OF
a head writer that shakespeare may
have patroniZed the place" was mac
curate. Shakespeare died in 1915. The
land on which the shop was built was
not acquired till 1893. The building
then erected was destroyed in the great
fire and rebuilt in 17S6. But it is pos
sible that Shakespeare did have the
services of the Apothecaries some
where. for they were incorporated by
James !, in 1906, ten years before his
death, observes the Brooklyn Eagle.
Clashes between the Apothecaries
and the College Of Physicians, incor-
porated in 1913. and the Barber Sur
geonS, Incorporated in 1540, led to the
final decision of the house OF lords In
favor Of the Apotnecaries in the case
of Rose VS.. the College Of Physicians.
It was held that 1.-THE duty OF the
apothecary consists not merely Of COM
pounding and dispensing, but also IN
directing and ordering the remedies
employed in the treatment Of diseases"
Later laws have somewhat modified
this principle. But the apotnecary's
shop. commonly known as Chem
ISIS" shop in London, is today very
different from what was known in the
time of James |. 1t sells lot OF things
that are not drugs.
And here in America, where in most
OF our states a druggist who advises
q given remedy is technically guilty OF
.'practicing medicine without license"
the decentralization Of the trade has
gone much farther. Two-thirds OF the
profits from the average retail stand
come from candies, cigars, soaps, cos
metics, soda water, camera supplies, q
hundred and one little luxuries. Drug
as drugs pay fine profit when they
are sold, but the sales are small. Of
course patent medicines still have a
considerable following. 1t would be
hard % find from Maine to California
a single drug store that deals exclu-
sively in drugs. Also there is some
reason for the optimistic reflection that
the bathtub and sanitary living have
made fewer drugs essential to human
comfort.

FRAGRANCE ON PRISON AIR
Electric Perfurer in Cleveland County
Jail Arouses Mind to All Kinds
Of Possibilities.

Altar Of roses and sweet scents of
Araby! There's an electric perfumer
at the county jail. 1t casts all kinds
Of sweetness on the prison air. Just
turn the button and the Jail becomes
a garden Of roses or fragrant with the
scent of orange blossoms.
The other day the atmosphere Of
the jail reflected the aroma Of the for
est cedar. 1t might have been Norway
pine, sassafras, crab apple blossom,
but it just happened that the perfumer
was charged to dispense an aroma
tinged with forest cedar.
The machine has possibilities, the
sheriff believes. 1t might be employed
to awaken the prisoners each morning
with scents of violets and soothe them
at breakfast with odors of ham, eggs,
corn fritters, grapefruit and other
viands not on the regular morning
menu of coffee and BUTTERFLIES bread.
Oh, yes, indeed, the machine has pos
sibilities. At night it could discharge
the odor of pineapple or figs or dates.
and any prisoner with good sense
of smell and a strong imagination
could readily go to sleep and feel that
he was in Hawaii.
But the perfumer is in Jail only on
trial-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

War on Insects.

The indications are that. great bat
tie is to be waged soon between MAN.
kind and the insect army. There Is
nothing which has Il greater potential
ity for destruction than insects. There
are 5000. 600 different kinds Of insects
and nearly al! Of them are bent in the
line of destroying food and other mate
rials of value to man. They cause ten
times more damage than fire, and ac-
cording to the Department Of Agricul-
ttre, the annual tax imposed by insects
is greater than prewar expenditures OF
the United States. The Hessian fly,
destroys from 10 TO 80 per cent of the
grain sowings amounting to SI3,oo0,-
600. The Mexican chinch bug eats up
S3,0O0,0e0 worth of corn in this coun-
try and some worms are responsible
for damage to corn amounting to three
times that sum. The annual cotton
loss is SS5,OO0,000 and the damage to
live stock is considerable. The pecu-
liar feature of this is that although
man has for years been studying the
insects with the thought Of preventing
their ravages, their inroads are con-
stantly increasing.

GOOD SIDE Line:
Lucky Junk Dealer Tumb|ed into
Small Fortune.
Negligence Of Authorities Of Great
Copper Mine Gave Him His Op-
portunity, and He Took 1t.

The letters YOU have been printing
about gold seekers in the Far West re-
call the following incident Of copper
mining in Montana, writes Il CORE
spondent OF the New York Herald.
Day after day about 20 years ago a
rickety Old open wagon, drawn by a
has-been horse, used to venture out
from Anaconda and garner rags, bot
ties, sacks and old iron. one day
on its return 10 town, hind wheel
wabbled Off as the vehicle was cross
ing culyelt. and wheel and load slid
down into Il greenish-iOoking little riv-
ulet that passed under fne culvert.
The junk dealer recovered the wheel
and drove on sadly into Ana
conda. But, being thrifty, he went
back one day to salvage the old iron,
perhaps whole dollars worth. This
re fshed out of the little stream.
He found that every horseshoe,
every stove liG, every old broken tool
that he clawed out of the shallow
water was thickly coated with copper.
He kept his mouth shut and in town
he melted Off. that pure copper, for
the greenish stream was an Outflow
of waste water from the great Ana
conda smelter, where copper was
melted out of the rocky ore Of that re-
gion.
Regularly, long after nightfall, the
junk dealer used to SO out on that
road with a load of old iron and dump
it into the greenish stream on this or
that side of the culvert and fish out q
load earlier deposited.
The copper company detectives be
gan reporting mysterious high-grade
shipments Of pure copper from Ana
conda, but no direct thefts could be
discovered. Not an employee could
be caught red-handed. Finally the
Junk dealers nocturnal trips came
under suspicion and he was watched
and his secret discovered, but not be
fore he had realized total of about
$4,000 in melting off pure copper
from the deposits on his loads of junk
iron. The company sought to enjoin
him, sought to recover the values he
had secured, but the court held that
it was waste water in public high
way, and the lucky junk dealer was
we'll within his rights.
And the lesson was worth more than
the lost value to the copper company,
for it resulted in a catchment dam be
ing built inside the company's fence,
where scrap iron was used to recover
copper values that long before had
been running to waste. Accidents
sometimes happen!

Dream of Death Fulfilled.
Perhaps he did.

To dream of an accident three times
and then witness its fulfllment has
been the unhappy experience just re-
corded of q Hobart (Tasmania) man.
A laborer- employed by the Hobart
city corporation was turning the hand
winch of crane. The jib Of the crane
swung around and a wire rope came
into contact with the high tension cleo
trie wires overhead. The result was
that the laborer was electrocuted. A
week before the accident one of the
mans workmates was uneasy in his
mind. He was troubled by strange
dream that was repeated three times.
In his dream he saw fatal accident
at the crane. It occurred in exactly
the same way as that which caused
the actual accident. He told his mates
of1the dream, which had made such q
deep impression upon him, and it was
the subject of considerable discussion.
The fulfhment of the dream came as
a shock to those who had been made
familiar with the story.

unique is that of wife of a friend
of mine who has been an earnest help
mate OF her husband for number OF
years. She has helped him climb the
ladder of fame and moderate fortune.
In talking about her pet desire the
other day, he said: what do you
think Molly wants to do when the
bank account amounts to certain
figure? She wants to have money
enough to have town house, so that
she can board 1t up during the sum-

Little Density in Fog.

It takes a big block of fog to make
one good swallow of water, says Dr..
w. ]. Humphreys of the United States
weather bureau at Washington. The
densest fog off Newfoundland banks
contains some 10000 droplets in a
cubic inch, Doctor Wells and Doctor
Thuras of the bureau o. standards
found.
To get one gulp of water enough
fog to fill space 3 by 8 by 100 feet
would have to be condensed. IN fog
that size there are 60,000c00,OO0,O00
particles of water. 1T would take
about half hour to count an inch OF
fog particles says Doctor Humphreys.
Placed side by side, $500 to 5000 drop
lets would be needed to I'LL that
length" The droplets in cloud nave

Oil From sunfiower Seed.

The sunfower is a possible source OF
oil; large quantity Of it having been
made from sunfower seed in Russia
before the war. The cold-pressed OIL
is used for culinary and othe: pur-
noses where a high-grade edible OIL Is
required, while the hot-pressed- is en-
pioyed in making soaps and Nussian
varnisnes. In 1911, more than 2oo
mills in the Caucasus were engaged IN
pressing sunfower seed. 1t is pos
sibIe that the sunhower may some day
be an important oil-producing plant IN
this country. The crop is now grown
to quite an extent in some parts OF the
country, notably Missouri. for poultry

generation could be very aptly eN-
pressed by an old anecdote that a
Charlestonian MAY tell you now and
then. AS the story goes, and it must
have be5N true, wealthy and sue
cessful pla2,er in the vicinity OF
Charleston imported a donkey. The
long-eared. ill-proportioned and lazy
beast was carried up the river on
boat from the City by the Sea and
landed at the plantation. The slaves,
but a generation removed from the
iungles of Africa, and having heard
from their fathers Of the great beasts
of the jungles, looked on the donkey
with great interest, awe and curlosl-
ty. His sonorous bay thrilled them
and they supposed that he was a
beast of great prowess.
By and by when the harvest Of rice
was gathered and boat load of the
golden grain was carried to Charles
ton and sold, the master having ac-
compa aied the cargo of grain to put
it Immediately on the market to pur-
chase such supplies as were needed
on the plantation. While in the city
there transpireG little incident that
called forth the most extravagant
flight of imagination on the part OF
the party of black slaves, oarsmen,
who had manned the boat.
Among the purchases the master
made was a rich buff coat Of velvet,
ornamented with ruffles and bright
buttons, long waistcoat gorgeousiy
Powered and brown silk knee-breech-
es with silk stockings. The purchaser
donntd the suit at the store where ne
purchased it, and with new low
crowned, wide 5rimnltd beaver, one
side of which was turned up and pin
ned with a flaming rosette, powdered
hair and a hashy queue ribbon, the
planter returned to the wharf where
the boat was docked. The slaves
aboard the BOAT greeted him with
wild admiration
"Ah," sad he, well pleased, "you
like NY fine suit, eh?'''
'Ki, Mausa," they all cried,
Glow Go you think I look?" he
asked, desiring Of course to feed his
own vanity.
