bad all around sinco the last legisla
ture diil a little legislation on the sui
ject. It seems there is so much red
tape attached to handling alcohol that
with but one or two exceptions, no drug
store in the city will handle pure alcohol
and tho gain a will apply to a majority
of the doctors. Before a drugist may
hnudle ethyl alcohol, a $25 government
licenso is necessary nud tho putting up
of a bond of $250. -x lion there are a
lot of blanks to sign and to swear to.
In fact, alcohol in its puro state cannot
bo sold without H lot of swearing, as
the druggist must swear, the party ap
plying for it must do likewise anil tho
doctor prescribing must swear nt least
once a month, that he has complied with
the law and filed every prescription in
its, chronological order. The druggists
of course will use ethyl alcohol in their
prescriptions. But as" in nine cases out
of 10 denatured alcohol will answer the
same purposes as ethyl alcohol, there
will be but little of the pure article
sold. The druggists say that denatured

When Mrs. Monroe Gilbert of the

the other day she brought with her
what is declared to be a real genuine an-'
tiquo an old-fashioned door knocker
made out of a horseshoe and a piece
of iron. She also brought with her an
other curious bit in the nature of a
shell cameo-brooch, which was carved
according to the French school of the
epoch of Louis rhillippe. It was cut
at the time of the restoration and shows
a child with a pigeon- Up to this time
cameos and other carvings were made
to reflect a religious idea but at that
time a reaction had taken place and
inly secular subjects were used. "
