RD. . When D. R. Francis and the Fair officials fet a date of the sort they always strive to make the day ‘memorable in some special manner, and we are quite certain that “Druggists' Day" will be mo exception. So, everybody get ready to be on hand, RETAIL MAIL ORDER HOUSES AS COMPETITORS: ‘OP DRUGCISTS. Perhaps the worst, because the most insidious forin of competition which the retail dealer, particularly in the smaller cities and towns, has to contend with, is-chat Which comes from the retail mail-order houses, These concerns obtain the names of the customers of the small dealers, to whom are sent their voluminous catalogues, in which ‘are listed, at prices which the retailer camot possibly meet, nearly everything which a person ean watt ‘Through this means business is drawn from the local dealers, and is centralized in the large cities in which the ‘catalogue houses are located. The consequence is that the country merchant finds his oceupation gone, the towns deteriorate, population decreases, rents and real estate dectine in value, while the big cities are proportionately benefited. This is a condition for which no adequate remedy has been, or is likely to be, evolved. The people themselves must be reached and taught that it is short sighted in them to compel their Jocal merchants to. shut up shop, just to save a few possible pennies or dollars ‘and thus to build up the large cities at the expense of their own localities, Until recently. the drug trade has not suffered as much from the methods of these retsil mail-order houses as have other classes of merchants, such, for instance, as the grocer, the dry-goods man or hardware dealer, ete Te seems, however, that they will no longer be free from attacks of this sort. One of the large retail mail-order houses of Chicago is now sending out a catalogue to the physicians of the country, containing 232 pages, in which are listed full Hines of Surgical instruments, physicians supplies, ineluding pharmacesticals, pills and. granules, fluid extracts, compressed tablets, tablet triturates, drugs and chemicals, in faet almost everything whieh the country physician uses, oF is Tikely to need in his practice, In. cluded in the Tist are imitations of the more poptlar proprietaries, whose appended formule and names suggest the genuine goods which they are evidently intended 40 supplant. Everything in the catalogue is quoted to the physicians direct at prices quite as low as, and in some eases even lower than, che small retail drwgst ean buy them for in like quantities, from his jobber. Tndeed, s0 it is claimed, the prices of some of the articles listed are only half what they have heretofore been sold for. These ex: ceptionally low prices must refer to their imitations of252 NATIONAL proprietary medicines, since in the line of legitimate drugs, chemicals, etc, the prices quoted show no such var from ordinary market prices. “Are there any physicians who get their ssonlies from such a source?” some one will ask. Apparently there are, and not only do they buy these goods, but seem anxious to make the fact known, if we may judge from the long sing of testimonials from “M. D's" which are appended to the advertisements of these imitation proprictaries, Tt js true that none of the names of these attestants” are recognized as being men of any note of iimportance in their profession, and their recommendations shauild have no weight, but “among the blind a one-eyed man is king.” The petting up of these imitation preparations and dubbing them with names which clesely suggest the orig- inal and reputable proprietaries, can have bt ane purpose, and that is to substitute them in the place of the original articles, and to encourage the so-called doctors who use them in dispensing their own remedies, In this way the manufacturer is defrauded of his due, and from the drug- sist is taken away trade and proft which legitimately belong to him, It seems strange that any man calling himself a physician would be so foolish a5 to get his medicinal supplies from a dry-goods house. How can a house of this description be qualified to manufacture or to sell deugs, chemicals, ete.? AS well one might go to a blacksmith to’ have his watch repaired, or have his eyes treated by a com doctor, Tt would be interesting to know these doctors personally, and see what kind of men they are, They must be shining lights indeed, and their patients are entitled to sympathy. WHY NOT ORDER A HOT SODA APPARATUS? While the mumber of druggists who have put in hot sods water anvaratus, and are availing themselves of this source of income, is very considerable, there is till 2 lamentable fot of thems throughout the conntry, who have fot yet waked up to the fact that they are losing the reventie of a large portion of their capital for over half the year, by failing to pat in a little extra apparatus What would be thought of a banker, for instance, ho lets a certain portion of his available capital lie idle, who exacts and gets no interest upon the same, simply because to do so, would make a fire in his office noces- sary, or cost a few exira postage stamp? Or, of an em- player who Jets an able-bodied and willing employe stand around idle because he has no tools with which the Tatter miighe work? Sich questions seem, and are absurd, yet not a whit more so, than is the conduct of the druggist who permits his $1,000'or $t $0 soda fountain stand dle and useless for six or seven months of the year, rather than pay the small amonnt necessary to put in hot soda. In too many ia- stances, too, the extra cost of the hot apparatus is not the fause—not the sole cause, at least, of failure to put it in, Other and varied causes are alleged. In one individual with whom we are acquainted, it seems to be a case of residual ethics, Said he, when asked why he had not put in the hot soda service, “It's too much like turning my phar- ‘macy into a cookshop.” Of all alleged reasons, this is the potest, worse even than the case of those who dread the extra expense, There is, in the first place, not the slightest necessity for turning the pharmacy into a cookshop, or restaurant, and if there were, is not keeping a restaurant as ‘honest DRUGGIST. ‘September, 1904, and respectable an occupation as that of selling soaps, perfumery, brushes, or even drugs and proprietaries? An- other party, asked the same question, replied that there: ‘was, in his opinion, not proft enough in the business #9 ‘warrant the trouble and expense that putting in hot soda would cost Roth of these replies indicate that the men had, not taken the trouble to investigate the matter, There are fof course, some places where hot soda might not “pay,” bout they are few and far between. The apparatus for the purpose, while in the outset somewhat cride, is to-day ae clegant in every respect as that for cold soda, and serving it causes no more unsightly “messing” or liter than does serving the cold, As to the profits returned by the tivo kinds of service, these must be relative, but there is, in ‘most instances, no good reason why the hot service should nnot prove even anore profitable than the cold. Especially is this the eae in places so situated as 10 draw a good male custom, The majority of men who are in the habit at noon Juucheon, or at night, going lime from the theatre, of drop- ping in to get abit of eold free lunch, and taking a drink, or @ lass or two of beer, do not do this becasse they prefer the “cold tunch, or want the drink; but to satisfy the cravings ‘of an empty stomach, and because they do not feel able to onder a hot lunch at 2 respectable restaurant, and are ‘unwilling to be seen eating at 2 cheap lunch counter. Once at these men to try a cup of hot bouillon, served with a nice crisp biscuit or cracker, or a hot dish of tea, coffee ‘or chocolate, and it is ten chances to one, even at the same price, he will thereafter become a regular patron of hot soda fountain. This is true, too, even in summertime, but applies more especially to the colder months, Wome, fitls, are the natural patrons of the cold soda fouatain, ‘but they take kindly and readily to the hot “eup that cheers, but does not inebriate"—especially in wintertime. ‘There is not, then, a single good and valid reason why: practically every druggist should not put in and run a hhot soda apparatus. Tt keeps the fountain running and caring something all the time, It is an honest and re- spectable, if not entiely “ethical,” way of adding to one's earnings, and, lastly, itis, in ninety-nine cases out of & Inundred, a certain producer, and beside, it helps to. keep ‘men, especially young men, ont of the harrooms, and thus is an agent of good im the commsnity, Laoole throwigh the advertising pages of the Narionat Davatist, where, in any and every issue, the manufacturers of soda fountains and apparatus are represented, and where all of them offer hot soda apparatus of the most improved styles and makes, and all at most reasonable prices. Pick you out an ap- pparatus neve, and be ready when the days and nights grow cold, to serve hot drinks at the fountain ‘THE A. PH. A. MEETING AT KANSAS CITY.

WEIGHTMAN. In the tong and eminently asefal life of William Weightman, senior member of the howe of Powers & Weightusan, Philadelphia, who died recently, full of years and honor, the young men of America will find much to Study and to pattern after. Torn in England, and coming to this cowntry at the carly age of sixteen, he entered the laboratory of an uncle, a manufacturer of chemicals in Philadelphia, Here he spent three quarters of a century, ‘dying virtvally in harness, at the age of nincty-one, 1eav- ing a vast fortune in this world's goods, and bequeathing to those who come after, a name memorable for integrity ‘of life, business and private; for even and exact justice and ‘quiet ‘nostentatiogs charity. Those who knew the man hhest declare his to have been a beautiful life, one worthy to be adopted as a pattern to live and die by. Elsewhere im this journal will be found a half-one picture of Mr. Weightntan, and a short sketch of his Tife, mainly pre- pared by Mrs. Walker, his daughter, and sole surviving partner in the bistoric house of Powers & Weighiman ‘The “Sponge” Case and Medical Responsibility.

Tt has been recognized for some time that certain bac. teria are not only useful, but are positively essential to the well-being of the human kind. Dr. Chatvin has lately been ‘making experiments on the subject, the results of which have been communicated 9 the Academy of Science by Professor Bouchard, and are of great interest to the scien- tie world. Some rabbits were fed upon vegetables which hhad been sterilized by the most thorough process known. Other animals of the same species were given similar food. Tn this case, however, the vegetables, after having been sterilized, were impregnated with bacilli, a broth in which bacteria ‘had been artificially cultivated being sprinkled over them, Instead of dying from one or more of many possible microbian infections, this lot of rabbits flourished land grew fat. The others, on the contrary, who absorbed nno bacteria whatever with their food, soon. perished of enteric affections produced by non-assimilation of their Aantseptically-treated food. Dk. Charrin's inference is that, fs regards the human specie, the theory that the freer food is from bacteria the better is erroneous. On the contrars, certain bacilli are indispensible to the digestive fametions Completely sterilized nourishment is accordingly danger- ‘ous, as, by slaying all your microbes, you_may pave the way for your own premature dissolution.

Cionia is without doubt most useful in any case of biliousness or its kindred diseases. I find it very useful in cases of enfeebled gestion and chronic constipation, and it will relieve most effectually the various conditions which arise from above causes. P. B. Savr, M. D., Chicago, I. "Too much cannot be said in favor of Cxi0NtA as a gentle and safe remedy in hepatic torpor. In a practice of over 30 years I have never prescribed a more effectual remedy in jaundice and chronic constipation. D. F. Myers, M.D. Woolmarket, Miss. I have been using CHionia with perfect satisfaction in fermentative dyspepsia asso- ciated with its usual trouble, viz., torpid liver and constipation. It seems to assist the assim- ilation of food as well as being a prompt hepatic stimulant, relieviag constipation. I give CHronra in teaspoonful doses in a wine- glass of water, immediately after meals. W. A. West, M.D., Brownwood, Tex. Curon1a has rendered me valuable services in combating biliousness and malarial affec- tions so frequently met with in certain sections here, I generally associate Cmronta with Gilute nitro-muriatic acid, which seems to enhance its therapeutic effect. A. C. Zrecier, M. D., Allegheny, Pa. I have found Pracock’s Curonra a mag- nificent preparation where a torpid liver causes faultw assimilation, and consequently faulty NATIONAL DRUGGIST. nutrition, In constipation I consider it a specific remedy for its permanent relief. W.C. Drrsy, M. D. White Cloud, Mich. PEAcock’s CHronta is the best liver regu- lator I have ever used. ‘Take an old morbid liver with all its evils, palpitation of the heart, sour stomach, bitter taste in the mouth in the morning, and put that patient on PzAcock’s Cmronta, and it will surprise you, I use lots of it, and occasionally take it myself. J. H, Cuacwent, M. D., Levyzille, Fla. Pracock’s Curonra has proven a very val able addition to those remedies for the cure ot hepatic troubles. It does not depress the system like many other cholagogues, but cleanses the mucous membrane and glandular organs in a mild, but effectual manner. I have used it for years with satisfaction, and will continue to do so, ¥xtas Wiepaan, M. D., Jenkintown, Pa, ‘Many stomach, liver and intestinal dise eases are traceable to torpidity of the liver. In such cases, the remedy indicated is an hepatic stimulant that will gradually restore the liver to a normal condition, ‘without subjecting that organ to unneces aary exertion. CHIONIA will be found to meet these requirements. In referring to Pracock’s Curonta, I may say it is very nearly, if not quite a specific remedy for constipation. I have preseribed it in obstinate cases of chronic constipation, and in each case the remedy has proven successful. H. Pack, M. D., U. $.

'HETHER OR NO—the practice of pharmacy be classed as a profession or trade, it is un- doubtedly true that the general public—being without special knowledge to guide themselves in determining the purity of drugs and medicines—place a reliance upon the skill and integrity of their pharmacist closely akin to the confidence which they repose in their family physician, @When purchasing medicine, the public expect the best; quality is the first requisite; hence, every drug sold by a pharmacist for the alleviation of disease is sold on honor. @ Some manufacturing drug houses do not seem to appreciate the high obligation of the pharmacist to his customers, nor to recognize the insult that is offered to Pharmacy as a Profession when they try to foist upon the retail drug trade compounds imitative of such standard articles as Listerine, with the sug- gestion or assurance that they are just as good and may safely be substituted in all cases where Listerine is ordered or prescribed. @ This is an advertisement of Listerine. The word Listerine is owned and the product it describes is manufactured only by Lambert Pharmacal Company, St. Lou but the best advertisement of Listerine—is Listerine.September, 1904. esses suseereeneanssc= £31 NALIUNAY URUTEIE: eae eI gies: aes geet e BE i, eanen8ei “a agen seees2e32—— WALA URUGULDL, September, 1904, fxeceoee ee | © BEST ; ANTISEPTIG mi PREPARATION WAL we POWERFUL RECONSTRUCTIVE ~ ALTERATIVE Tonic ~ Blood-Maker ~ Tissue-Builder FOR THE TEETH ano MOU SANITOL LIQUID ANTISEPTIC, Reguar, 500 SANITOL LIQUID ANTIS IMPROVES EVERY FUNCTION OF THE BODY SANITOL TOOTH BRUSH, 356 - =. = > 2s NEW PRODUCTS: SANITOL HYGIENIC TOILET SOAP, 162. $1.00 SANITOL ANTISEPTIC SHAVING STICK, 25¢. = “1.78 1m 1 gross ots, single or asortad, 8 per cent discount FOR SALE BY ALL Fropared Only by deers THE aoa company “ya { Sanitol Chemical Laboratory Co., St. siren, ert reer SPECIAL NOTICE “Ves -st-Pocke' ox ANTIKAMNIA TABLETS ean ta tether ee ryeee veteran FROM ALL JOBBI THE ANTIKAMNIA CHEMICAL COMPANY COMPANY ST.

HUCK MANUFACTURING CO. # QUINCY, ILL.: | 'HIS remedy is a genitourinary and nutrient tonic. It has a special action upon the glands of the reproductive or- gans, as the mamma, ovaries prostate, testes, etc. Its action is that of a great vitalizer, tending to increase their activity, and to promote their secreting faculty. It is specially indicated in all cases of wasting of the testes, such as follows varicocele or is induced by masturbation, or which is often present in sexual impotency. In gynecological practice it is much used to pro- mote the growth of the mammz; also in uterine atrophy de pendent upon ovarian blight, and in urethritis and gleet, its ac tion is unexcelled. But it is upon the prostate gland that this remedy exercises its best effects. Out of every ten men, nine have enlarged prostate, and one has atrophy of the same. Case after case of both morbid conditions could be recited in which by the use of SANMETTO, the size of the prostate was equalized, the difficulty of micturition removed, and the sexual power improved. A perfect rejuvenation follows the use of the SANMETTO, the general nervous system becomes balanced and reinvigorated. DOSE-One Teaspoontul Four Times a Day.
