OvERHAULED YOUR MEDICINE
CHEST, RECENTLY /?
From state Dept. Of Health.


Have you cleared out your medi-
cone chest, this season In sud-
den illnesses or emergencies, can
you put your hand on what you
need Are your supplies fresh
Properly labeled ? Poisons in a
separate compartment These are
some of the tests suggested by Mr..
Robert l.. Swain, Deputy Drug Com
missioner of the Bureau OF Food
and Drugs of the State Department
of Health and editor of the Maryland
Pharmacist.
mo matter how careful house
holders may be in other Matters"
he said, they are inclined to let the
family medicine chest take care of
itself. There is no more important
adjunct to well ordered household
than the medicine chest with its
array of time-tested remedies, but it
rarely receives the attention its
Importance warrants. 1t is remem-
bered only when illness develops, or
when somebody has met with an
accident. 1t is source Of first aid,
and for that reason it should be
always ready.
WHAT 1T SHOULD CONTAIN
''In addition to simple remedies,
such as are usually found in the
home, it should always contain a
supply of bandages, sterilized alb
sorbent cotton and some commonly
used antiseptics, such as iodine,
peroxide Of hydrogen and boric
acid. Your physician will be glad
to advise you as to other articles.
A SEPARATE SHELF FOR
POISONS-"But the greatest care
should be taken to keep these
antiseptics and all poisons, in a
separate compartment, so that there
will be no chance of confusing them
by mistake with some Of the harm
less remedies. Many serious ac-,
cidents have been caused by the
careless handling of poisons and by
failure to take proper precautions in
storing them in the medicine chest.
EACH ARTICLE SHOULD BE
PLAINLY LABELED-''Labe are
also a matter of great Importance.
Indistinct labels; carelessly written
labels, are source of great danger
and are yearly responsible for their
toll of human life. Go through
your medicine chest; see that you
are familiar with it's contents; see
that the labels on the various boxes
are plain and definite; reduce to a
minimum the chances for mistakes.
Discard everything you no longer
use.
KEEP ONLY FRESH SUP
PLIES-"M Many drugs in common
use become either useless or greatly
impaired with age. 1t is much
safer to throw away old medicines
than to run the IRISH of having them
go back on you in an emergency.
Many of the well known household
remedies, such as sweet spirit OF
inter, aromatic spirit of ammonia,
and also peroxide, due peculiar
tiles of composition, are rendered
practically inert, if not properly
stored. While it is true that many
medicines do not deteriorate with
age, it is safe rule not to depend
upon any medicine after the lapse
of a few months. Drug stores are
near enough to most OF us, for
there to be no necessity for storing
large quantities of domestic remedies
in the home.
PLAY SAFE-"Abeve all; Keep
the poisons in separate compart-
ment. Keep them entirely away
from the harmless remedies. Play
safe.''

CHAOS IN CHINA

China is long way from Alaska, but the situation there has developed into one of serious concern for the entire United States
 Just now Chinese to the estimated number of 100000 are under arms, divided among several provincial war chiefs, each with a different aim. In addition, numerous bands of brigands infest the country, engaged in general depredations with the kidnapping of foreigners for ransom as a speciality. Only in one matter are the Chinese united. They want an end of foreign dominance and the right of self gov ernment.
 The world powers are unwilling to grant this because existing treaties. which have been imposed from time to time give valuable concessions and privileges to other nations, including the United States. These powers say that China must establish a govern ment capable of protecting foreigners in their treaty rights before the spe- cial privileges will be modified or be given up

LOSS OF THE SHENANDOAH

Again the highest modern engineer ing skill has been set at naught by the fury of the clements, resulting in the loss of the great dirigible airship Shenandoah and the lives of IA off cers and men.
 This proud craft, 6S0 feet long, the pride of America, broke in pieces and fell to earth while trying to weather a storm over southeastern Ohio, about 5 o'clock in the morning of Sept. 5.
 Tossed by the terrific wind the air ships structure proved too frail and the name of the Shenandoah took it's place on the roll of giant aircraft that have met disaster. Her fate recalls other similar tragedies in which the nations airmen have lost their lives, those which befell the ZR-2 and the Roma being the most notable.
 The ZR-2 buckled and exploded at Hull, England, August 25, 1923, caus- ing the death of 62 of her crew of 66 men aboard, IT being Americans, the nucleus of crew sent to bring the airship to the United States for the American Navy.
 On February 25, 1922, the Roma, bought in Italy for the United States, went out of control over the Army base at Hampton Roads, Va, struck electric wires, which broke, the result ing sparks setting fire to the airship, causing the death of 35 men.
 It is estimated that not less than 10000 lives of airmen have been lost including war deaths, since the first airplane fatality on Sept. IT, 1908, when Lieut.. Thomas E. Selfridge of the U. s. Army was killed, and Orville Wright, the pilot, was severely injur. ed. sa a ~

THE MERCHANTS WEAPONS

EncrOachment of mail order houses upon the trade of local stores has long been the subject of concern to home merchants and will continue to be, no doubt, indefinitely.
 Of late the bell-ringers have invaded Seward going from house to. house, come formidable competitors in cer- tain lines.
 If Seward merchants are to hold their own against these encroach- ments he must fight and fight hard, as it is nearly impossible to frame an ordinance barring these gentry if they have a license from the Territory. Appeals to local pride apparent are productive of little in the way of practical results, as many of our citi zens are determined to fudge on the remainder
 Satisfactory goods, fair profit and advertising are the weapons the local man must use to hold his own. They are the weapons his outside competi- tors use against him, and that they produce results goes without saying There is no standard article of goods that cannot be purchased as cheaply in Seward as outside, when one con- siders freight and interest on money caused by delay in receiving the mer. chandise ordered. Wherever an arti- cle is bought cheaper from the mail order house it is Wards Special or Sears & Roebuck trade marks.
 Advertising should be studied by the local merchant, as without excep- tion a majority of the stores waste their space in not advertising leaders and special sales. There is no reason why the merchant who receives 100 boxes of apples of large shipment of other goods should not inform the public when the shipment is expected and the price to be charged.
 As was said to the American Re- tailers' Association recently by T. K. Kelly of Minneapolis:
 Tt has become the habit of the small town merchant to fall into a rut in his advertising, allowing his large competitor to win trade away from him by proper advertising. The Amer ican people look to the newspapers today for their information on cur rent affairs and the merchant who overlooks the potent force of adver- Using is inviting bankrutcy."
