TIIK CITIZEN
Adulterated Foods in Ohio.
Eiftbt years ago the State of Ohio passed j
a law establishing the « rtk-e uf "Dairy and i
Food Commissioner," the incumbent <>'
which was to bo "charged with the en
fureement ol all laws against fraud and j
adulteration or impurities in foods, drir.ks, j
or drugs, and unlawful labelling" Since;
that time various clauses looking to better j
protection against iraad in the production ;
and sale t tuod products and drugs have 1
been added, until now it is ciaiiurd that j
the laws of Ohio in this regard are superior j
to those of any other State, and only ap- |
proaehed by those of Massachusetts.
The l arly work of the Ohio commission j
was directed chiefly against adulterated
1 food and drinks. As preliminary to en j
• forcemeat of the new laws, it subjected!
; samples of numerous articles of diet in I
common use to chemical and microscopic j
analysis. The rather startling results fur-;
nished a basis ior numerous arrests and i
prosecutions, nv st of which led to convic- (
tioit and punishment of the erring dealers j
au l manufacturers. Au account ot the.-e |
things, as contained in a recent ly issued ,
j official report of the commi-sioner, l)r. F
11. McNeal, is most interesting reading,
i Mere, for example v. e are told of bak
| iug powders which, besides being ball
i starch to begin with, contain large quan
tities of alum auJ phosphoric acii!; ol
' buckwheat" IK.ur that is fifty per ceut.
c iru meal ami wheat flour; of ground
"ciunamon" that is two-thirds fl -nr. ground
crackers, and foreign bars; ot ' coll tnal
is three-fourths pea shells, chiccory, and
rye; «t "cream tartar" that is impure gs p
' sum: ol "curraut," "strawberry," and
| other jellies compounded of apples, jslu
j cose, ani'.iue dyes, compound ethers, ami
• mineral acids; of "batter that never
i made the acquaintance ol a cow; of "pep
: per'' that £ a strange conglomeration of
cocoauut shells, rice, rice shells, and
bread or crackers; of "wines" innocent ot
yrape juice; ol "pure leal lards lhat trace
their lineage direct to the cotton-seed; of
"olive oils'' that are cousius-gerinati to the
"lards"; and of "molasses' and '"maple
syrups" and ,: boney" and allied sweets
whose chief constituent proves to be glu
cose.
Whatever other feeling one may expe
rience on running over the list, of which
this is a partial synopsis, h s chief emotion
is pretty sure to be a feeling of indigna
tion. For despite the statement of the
"ate Mr. Barnaul to the contrary, no one
really likes to be humbugged. We may
pay twenty live cents for a cent's worth of
glucose stained with aniline and labelled
"jelly," but the person who seils it to us
will not be fortified in our estimation or
insured our future patronage by disclosure
of the fraud he has practised upon us. The
wholesale grocers of Ohio understood this
when they joined together with op<*n cof
fers last fall to defeat the commissioner
wno bad exposed the prevailing methods
of lood adulteration. And the people fur
nished the best possible refutation of Mr.
Barnum's aphorism when they cried the
grocers down, and re-t-lecled the commis
sioner.
Stimulated to renewed efforts by this
evidence of popular approval, the Ohio
commission has recently extended its field
of operations by bringing the druggists
within the scope ol its inquiry. Here is a
field even more fruitful than the other, and
a fignt is on of which the end is not yet.
Tile conimi~>ion declares, to cite but a
single case of illustration, that a certain
very widely advertised alleged mediciual
and fattening food, which soils for a dol
lar a bottle, is in reality only our old
friend glncose in disguise. The firm lhat.
lias thus solved the problem of the alcheui
i ists naturally shows fight, and the legal
battle that is pending w ill probably not be
decided in a single court. This of course
is only a test case, precursory ol many
others.
Unless the patcut medicine Venders Can
pr.ive the chemists at fault by very com
petent evidence, the sympathy of a long
victimized public will certainly bo with
the Ohio commission in its new crusade.
Tn any event, the commission is doing a
tiue work, and one that should speedily
be imitated iu other States. As a stimu
lus thereto,'it maj interest people at large
to know that car-loads of adulterated
foods are now being shipped out ol Ohio,
tbei: sale there having been rei dererl too
hazardous by the activity of the commis
sion; while Eastern manufactures have
been warued by Ohio dealers that they
must warrant supplies or lose their custom.
It is plain, therefore, that there are grati
fying elements of practical efficiency about
the laws that protect citizens of Onio
against fraudulent adulteration of their
eatables and drinkables. It is equally
plain that other States must follow this
good example, and that those that are last
to do so may leel sun; of having the larg
est percentage ol adulterated maim fact uies

The Slick Westerner
( Harrisburg Telegraph)
I "Those western people are slick articles,' j
: said the man. "Iu what wayf'a-ked gos

story to illustrate my assertion. Some ,
years ago a party of H.irri-burgers went;
on a hunting trip to the west, occupying ;
i one ol the famous Pullman hunting coach- j
jes They traveled all over the west, even
| down to Texas and np to North Dakota
j and the}- hunted all kinds of gum", having
; good, bad and indifferent luck, but a royal
j good time aud seeing sights they never
dreamed of While traveling it was the
| custom of the boys to luliiiiu a little j
' game ot Great American Pok -r say ten
j C'-ut ante and twenty-five cen's the limit,
; so that nob >dy would win or lose much,
and the lun to keep going. Oue day in
| North Dakota they were side tracked in a ,
! good s"z<*d town, and » uile some of tne
! party went out to kill prairie hens others |
j remained iu the car or took a walk over !
j the town. When thej got back to the car
i tuey were called upon by the owner of the
, piucipal hotel, a sal lotbspokmi, geutle

: tiue cigars with his compliments. The
; party was enjoying a small game ol poker,
and the stranger w JL~. such a nice man lhat

sat down Fortune favored iiim from the

wa a met man. They piaji-dali alter
noon, and just before the train was about
to move oil the conductor announced the
(act that all aboard not passengers should
get off The siick stranger looked up in
surprise, and casued hi.- chips, au.l found
that he had Won eighty dollars. As he
roiled up the wad of hills lie remarked:
'Tnat wiil jast pay my taxes. Good day.
gentleman, I trust you will have a pleasant
time the remainder of your journey.'
I'nen he got off ihe car. a id cn« boys look
ti.l at each other. 'Well, sanl one of them,

Don't Whip the Boys.
It is not their fault that their
shoes have worn out so soon. You ■
did not get them the right kind.
Have you seen our High Cut
School Shoe at 75 cents, $!, and
$1.25? Try a pair of them and
you will have no occasion to whip
the boys on account of their
shoes.
Girls wear out their shoes migh
ty fast, too, sometimes, but girls
that are wearing our shoes speak j
very highly of them. The price '
is moderate, ranging froi.T 75 cts
to $1.50. I
Ladies are not as hard on their
shoes as school girls, but they all
need them. We have just receiv
ed another large shipment of La
dies' Vici Kid Shoes in Heel and
Spring, Lace and Button, Opera
and Plain Toe at $1.25; other
stores ask $2. Come in soon.
The Men are coming our way,
they have learned of the big cut
we have made and our sales on
Men's Shoes gets larger ever day.
Our 95 cent line is good, our
line is better, our $1.25 line is
creating quite a sensation, while
our $1.50, $2 and $2.50 line is
simply out of sight.

Reader 4 :-
# In presenting for your careful consid
f eration our advertisement of Whiskies,
? Wines and Liquors, we have no desire to
£ tresspass upon your indivtdual opinions and
4 beliefs; but the unanimous verdict of physi
# cians of all schools "that pure whiskey is
the best stimulant known to Materia Med
-5 ica" impells us in telling you how and where
X you can purchase not only pure whiskey,
? but where you may obtain the BEST and
£ PUREST liquors generally, either for medi
\ cal or social purposes. As a necessary
a stimulant, pure whiskey is an absolute
necessity, especially so at this season of the
([ year. Its timely use counteracts the ill ef
<: feet of climatic changes 011 the system, and
\ it is invaluable "to sustain the flagging
4) powers of life in disease" as stated over
the signature of one of our most eminent
physicians, (see page 13 of our catalogue).
t At this time of the year too, the good
I house-wite is bent on serving "good cheer"
4 for the Holidays, and what indeed would the
# Christmas Dinner be without its Pudding
flavored with rum? its Mince Pie without
Brandy? while the hot, smoking Punch and
the steaming Toddy must not be forgotten
4) tor they are all a part of Christmas and the
<> glad new Year.
'J Then too, friends must not be forgotten,
and there is nothing more acceptable as a
4 Christmas offering than a bottle of fine
? whiskey or wine.
Read over our catalogue.
Which Will be Mailed Free on
Application,
# Carefully, and be assured that our earnest
€ oflort will be to please you and to give you
? the very best liquors, all guaranteed to be
X perfectly pure.
