TALK WHISKY'S
MEDICAL VALUE
Place in Drugs Standard to
Be Argued.
Bu ScienceNerrice

WASHINGTON, May 14.-Wheth-
er whisky and brandy should have
a place in the United States phar-
macopoeia, legal standard for drugs.
in this country and Cuba, is a prob
lem to be settled by the United
States pharmacopoeial convention
meeting here this week. This con-
vention will select the committee on
revision which prepares the next
edition. The pharmacopoeia is re-
yised only once in ten years
At the time of the last decennial
revision in 1920. just after the
Eighteenth amendment, whisky and
brandy triumphantly resumed the
place in the pharmacopoeia that
they had lost by previous revisions.
From 1900 to 1920 they had been
TOUT. The question of whether they
should be in or out comes up at
every revision. Wines, which once
were given a place, have not been
in the last pharmacopoeia, and prob
ably definitely are eliminated. But
whisky is another matter.
Another angle of the problem is
seen in the discussion as to whether
the pharmacopoeia should include
all the drugs that are prescribed to
any extent by physicians, or just

message that will help them go on
living happily and successfully"
And she goes on to tell of the
respondent girl who had been on
the verge Of suicide when she heard
Vaughn de Leath's voice through
the loud speaker. The grooming
melody averted a tragedy.
It's the same old story, but Vaughn
has letters that praise and thank
her for just such benevolences
through her singing. Her fan mail
proves it.
One letter she prizes is dated Jan.
4, 1920. 1t recalls the days when
she was the first woman to broad
cast on the air, as early as 1919,
when she had to climb three flights
of rickety spiral stairs and sing into
an old phonograph horn in a dingy
tower room.
Later she was graduated to the
more spacious, but long antiquated,
studios Of WIZ on Forty third
street, and now she has the free
dom and advantages Of a more
scientifically appointed studio in
the NBC building.
1.-The Original Radio Girl" she
calls herself, and most radio artists
concede that title to her.
"Of course" she reminds you,

still busy composing music. I was

But we like now to go back to
our home near WeStport, Conn,
her husband intervenes, where
we have colorful old house on
seven-acre tract, or to our little
log cabin on a ten-acre plot
nearby.
There Vaughn likes to go back
to her collection of earrings-and
she has a marvellous collection of
them-or to her cooking, which is
her second hobby.
"She hires a cook and learns
all his recipes, or she gives him
some of her own recipes. She al
ways likes to putter around in her
kitchen"
And don't forget" Miss De
Leath, or Won der Lieth, or Mrs.
Geer, as you prefer, responds,
Mr.. Geer isn't just one of these
sissy artists. He's regular he
man.
He likes to go home to Westport
and chop wood, and hoe the garden,
and I like to help him with the
garden, too.

me by fans in every state of the

GRAPE JUICE
For Breakfast!
Physicians ReC0FmnSeFId &c

Here are seven ofthe reasons whyWelch's
is fast becoming the favorite breakfast
fruit juice in many thousands Of homes;
1. Welch's is the pure, unaduiter-
ated juice of luscious Concord
grapes, Pasteurized.
2. WEIGHS is rich in fruit nourish-
ment and mineral salts, and so per-
fectly adapted to the human system
that it is taken into the blood-stream
without digestive effort, releasing
quick new energy. It's mountaineering.
3. Welch's is already squeezed.
No fuss!
a. There's no squeezer to clean, no
machinery to sterilize. No mussi
5. There's not particle of wasteI
6. In every pint there are six liberal
portions, making Welch's only Sc a
glass-costs even less if diluted with
one-third water, and many preferitso.
2. It's ready instantly. And tempt
ingly delicious. You simply dilute
to suit taste, pour and serve.

your club breakfast and insist on Welch's

Wet, WET PATH
is MAPPED FOR
FRENCH TOURS
500 Provides 15-Day Trip
and All the Liquor One
Can Drink.

b. Tuifcd Press
PARIS. May IA wet trail lies
ahead of the American tourist who
buys the French governments new
500 inclusive tourist ticket.
The inclusive tickets are the latest
means by which the French high
commission of tourists hopes to win
back the golden stream Of American
dollars.
The commission does not intend
to get out separate tickets for vets
and drys. On the contrary. the
ticket not only will include all &C
comnodations during the fifteen
day tour. but will provide every kind
Of drink France has to ofTer-wines,
beers and hard elders.
And No Refunds, Either
If the American tourist is deter
mined to abstain from alcoholic
beverages, however, he may obtain
mineral waters in place of the
liquors, but he can not get a refund
for what he does not drink
When in France do as the
Frenchmen do" seems to be the
motto of M CASTOR Gerard, high
commissioner of tourists.
It was his idea to make the tours
wet. He felt that if tourists could
learn to drink French wines and
find that they are not Intoxicating,
some day, perhaps, America might
revoke her prohibition laws, or at
least relax them a bit.
Tickets Ready Thursday
The government department is
hard at work on the "see France
fifteen days for 500" scheme. The
government is not going to go into
the actual business of selling the
tickets. This will be done by tour
ist agencies, but there will be a Ger
tain stock kept in French consul
ates around the world.
The tickets will be ready by
Thursday, when the regular sum-
mer invasion starts. Last year
France saw her tourist business drop
25 per cent. This year it is hoped
to attract at least 100000 more tour
lists by the new scheme, adding an
other $10,OOO,OOO to her revenues.
