 Your trusted and heretofore re- liable hottlegger may get stuck himself, without even knowing t. He doesn't have his stuff tested, so it you don't you're the one who is caught"
 pr. Harris point Of view Is diff teren'. A real analysis, he says, one that brings ont the presence Of fusel oil. q poison becoming ether as the raw liquor ages, Is a lahorlous task, calling for considerable skill time and extensive apparatus
 "The average analysis Is not q guarantee of the quality Of the llquor,' he said.
 "A thorough analytical test Is an intricate joh with which few lay men are familiar,
 "The honest druggist does not nTt1eUQ ID QD lAIE pN 1T q dlla 7 'N' ' work. He Is invariably the agent Of a labol tory to which he sends all his specimens"
 The city health department has received many requests for liquor nalysis. But the municipal labora- tories are kept busy with their rou- tine work, and only analyze li1uor which is destined for use in public hospitals,
 Practically any man who has passed the requirement to practice chemistry can go through the mo- tons of making an anaysis of liquor, say the health department officials. No special license is re- qulred, nor Is any record kept of men engaged in such work. The situation rests upon the Individuals faith in his druggist, and the lat ters faith Tn the laboratory which does his analytical work.
