II on a new Victor Record }B
jfj A new Victor Record by Melba is a new chapter in the
gj musical history of the world. „ ;§H!I
"Sweet as the voice of Nellie Melba" is a musical proverb.
The capture of her matchlessly pure notes in a fresh flow of
~i beauty is an event of genuine importance to those who cherish
■ genius. ■ II
"Songs My Mother Taught Me," an exquisite gypsy lyric
by the Bohemian Dvorak, is worthy a place among the "Melba
classics" to be found only on Victor Records.
In this cameo of a song Melba's art shines in all its crystal
purity and tenderness and freshness. It is a song which every
true appreciator of beauty will surely wish to ada to his library

for consideration and as a similar bill
only failed to pass by a few votes at
the last session of the Legislature it
is very likely that a strong bill will be
favored that will control the manu
facture and sale of patent medicines in
this State, as many harmful nostrums
are now made by ignorant and un
scrupulous persons and peddled from
door to door in rural districts.
It is not commonly known to the
public that Pennsylvania drug laws are
paradoxical, compelling druggists with
a fixed place of business and great
financial responsibility to be graduates
of pharmacy and to have had four
years of training before they are eligi
ble to legally conduct a drug business,
i while any person, even one mentally
deficient, or a moral pervert can com
pound patent medicines containing ar
senic, strychnine, corrosfve sublimate,
or other dangerous drugs, and offer
the poisonous mixtures for sale and
the only redress the public would have
would be a civil suit for damages af
ter taking.
Another bill on the same lines for
;the protection of the public is the
i formula disclosure bill, requiring man
! ufacturers of all secret remedies, to
either publish the formula upon the
label, or file a copy of the same with
a commission provided for that pur
pose. and if the law recently enacted
in New York city is not declared un
constitutional, it is probable that the
Pennsylvania Legislature will be asked
to pass a law giving the public this
additional protection.
A proposed amendment to the pres
ent pharmacy act will be discussed,
providing for the recognition and reg
istration of those having experience
in hospital pharmacies and who are
otherwise qualified and. can pass the
examination of the State Pharmaceuti
cal Examining Board, and also provid
ing for compelling hospitals where
prescriptions are compounded to have
a registered pharmacist in charge.
As the Pennsylvania pharmacy law
is now framed it only applies to the
registration of pharmacists who are
engaged in the retail drug business,
and It is believed to be in the interest
of the public that the preparation of
all medicines be carried on under the
supervision of skilled registered phar
macists.
Other legislation to be discussed will
be coupon and trading stamp bills, and
the Stevens-Ashurst Price Maintain-

ence bill now under consideration in

which bills are in the interest, of the

humbug in advertising:.
These topics will be only part of a
varied program for discussion and ac
tion, and it is believed that this meet
ing will be one of the most interesting
that the Association has had in the
thirty-nine years of its existence.
