The bill as agreed upon makes it a misdemeanor for any pcison to manufac ture, sell or offer for sale any article of food, drug, medicines or liquors which is adulterated or misbrauded, or which contains any poisonous or deleterious substance. It prescribes for each offense a fine not to exceed $300, one year's im prisonment or both, within the discre tion of the court, and for each subsequent offense a fine of not less than ?t,ooo or one year's imprisonment. section 2 prohibits the introduction into any State or Territory, or the Dis trict of Columbia, from any other State, Territory or district or any foreign country, or the shipment to any foreign country of any article adulterated or mfs branded -within the meaning of the act under penalty not exceeding a fine of $200 for the first offense and $300 or one year's imprisonment or both for each subsequent offense. Concerning shipments to a foreign country it is provided that no article shall be deemed misbrauded or adulter ated when no substance is used in con flict with the lws of the foreign country for which it is intended. This clause, however, does no: exempt any person from prosecution f the article is offered for sale for domestic use or consumption. Section 3 provides for rules and regu lations for canying Vint the act. Sec tion 4 provides for examination of spec imens of foods and rirut's in the Bureau of Chemistry of the Department of Ag riculture.

Section 6 defines the terms drugs and foods, and Section 7 defines what shal le deemed adulterated in the case ol drugs, confectionery and foods. The standards for drugs arc those recognizee' in the United States Phamacnenia or Na tional Formulary. Confectionery is hek adulterated it it contain any ingredient 1 or coloring matter deleterious or detri mental to health. Foods are held adulterated if contain ing any substance reducing, lowering ot injuriously atlecttng its quality 01 strength; when any substance has been substituted wdiolly or in part for the ar ticle; when any valuable constituent has been abstracted; when mixed, colored, powdered, coated or stained to conceal damage or inferiority or any poisonous or deleterious ingredients added. The u-e of preservatives by external application is permitted when the directions for the removal of such preservatives arc printed on the covering or the package. Food products are declared .adulterated if in whole or in part of a filthy, decom posed or putrid animal or vegetable sub stance or of any portion of an animal un fit for food, whether manufactured or not, or if the product of a diseased ani mal or one that has died otherwise than by slaughter. The terms misbrauded ap plies to foods or drugs whose package or label bears any statement, design or de vice fake or misleading or if falsely branded as to place where manufactured or produced. Any article, however, which does not contain any added poisons or deleterious ingredients shall not lie deemed adulter ated or misbrauded when known tinder ifs distinctive name as an sirticle of food, and it is not an imitation of another ar ticle, or if compounds, imitations or blends or plainly indicated. , No More Saloons In Chicago.
