I think this Jew passed as well for the safety of our sick people as for the prevention of swine-herds, ete., from intruding into a business about which they do not know anything, and assisting the real pharmacists. Why don’t the latter see to it that the stores are no more left in charge of boys with two and even one year’s experience, of who, some of them, know as much about drugs and medicines asa mule driver about as- tronomy? Or why does not the college of pharmacy see to it, whose alm and duty tt Should be to have none but reliable and compe- tent druggists; that this law 1s carried out, and that anybody can send a prescription to a drug Store without anxiety to get the right medicine?
