Swindlers Who Borrow the Cloak of Rellgion, Becrets of the Laboratory—A Reason for Our High.Priced Drugs— An Interview That Will Interest the Pablic, Salem Call, While the journalist was looking over an assortment of brushes, a slckly look- ing and rather shabbily clad woman came into tho drug store and handed a pre- soription to the man In charge. After glancing at the paper a moment, the pro- prietor handed it back, saying: ‘‘I'hat prescription is a humbug, madam, and the man who sent It to you is a swindler. He knows you cannot have it put up in any deug store, but will supply it himself on the recelpt from you of so m.nf dol- lars. If you take my advice you will save your money, for you will get nothing but some colored slops In return,” “'Oh, you are mistaken, sir,” roplied the woman, “‘for 1 got this receipt from a clergyman.” “Very well, madam, you can do as | have shrines in almost every house, and | northwest of Miles City. you choose, but 1 assure you your money |8t glven points along the highways, it | parties have been prospecting on the Big will be thrown away.” “Thank you, left the establishment. SCANDALOUS DECEPTIONS, Turning to the newspaper man the chemiat said: *‘The chances are more than even that that poor woman will |{ send for the stuff. Itis really too bad that there seems no way to stop such swindling. The man who wrote that so- called prescription belongs to a class of scoundrels who cheat the public under the cloak of religlon. It s done in this way: An advertisement appears, gener— ally in a religlous or weekly paper, to the effect that Rey, somebody or other, while prosecuting his labors as a mission- ary, discovered that a certain herb, pecu- liar to the country, was successfully em- ployed by the natives for the cure of such |, a complaint, Having proved its virtues by experimenting in his own family, the holy man is anxlous to benefit the rest of humanity, and will send a preacription free of charge to any sufferer who applies forit, The gudgeon bites, and In res- ponse to letters gets a document similarto the one that woman had. In it there will be several Ingredients correctly given, and then one or two items of gib- berish, which reprerents the name of the unknown herbs. 1In a postscript the ap- plicant is Informed that if the druggist in his town have not yet supplied them- selves with the newly discovered herb, he can obtain the medicine from the writer by forwarding $3—which is the exact cost of making it up. In return for his coin the sick person gets some powders or a bottle of stuff that did nut cost 10 cents to prepare. It would astonish you to know how much money been waated in this way. If a patient rallles for a time or gets well through natural causes, the praises of the missionary medicine are sung, and fresk dupes are caught.” “That is pretty bad,” replied the brush-huntea, ‘but you must acknowl- edge that the public are pretty baaly chonsed even when they buy their med- icines from the regular druggists. Wh; is it that you people charge such enor- mous prices for things that cost you so little?” REASON FOR HIGH PRICED PRESCRIPTIONS, “For the simple reason, so far as many of usare concerned, that we can’t help it. In the firat place, there is no law soriptions in hieroglyphics that can only be deciphered at the store in ques: tion. You can soagcely blame us drug- glsts for conniving at this form of swindl- ing, for unless we do so our business would amount to nothing. The phyictans would comblne against a man who offered them nothing, ahd in time he would un- questionably be ruined. As it Ia with the percentages that are pald to the doo- tors, we have to limit our own share to a reasonable profit in order not to disgust our customers too thoroughly, and there- by drive them away. 1do not hesitate to say that the retail drug business is in » miserable and frandulent condition, and that the lack of proper laws and the ac- tion of a majority of the physlcians are oauses of this state of affatra. The doot- ors are cutting thelr own throsts as well as ours, however, for they are steadify driviag the public from the patronage of the regular school, to channels where they can obtain attendance and medi- oln es more cheaply. This fact is b proven day by day, but the physicians seem blind to if ———— E Origin of Christruas Gifts, To the editor of the Globe: ‘What was the origin of Christmas gifta? noRH, The custom grew out of a very old re- liglous rite.

The bouquets and trifles were greatly prized in those days by those to whom they were given after having served as votive offer- ngs to some saint. Then there was something 8o sacred about them that they were not given carelessly and unmeaning- ly, and they were prized accordingly. In- trinsic value was scarcely regarded at all. A faded rose, a leaf or trifling trinket was prized just as highly as a gem. It was not the thing itself but that which it sug- gested that was prized. - A Maine Liquor Trap] Boston Herald, The deputy sheriff lately found in Lew- iston, Me., an artificially-concealed liquor trap, which has defied the police for a long time. A search was made by Depu- ty Sheriff Hinkley on this house a num- ber of weeks ago, but nothing was found. A pair of stairs comes down to the floor. Under there is a clothes press, and a lit- tle ways furthsr onis a bedroom. A por- tion of the space under the stairway is unoccupied by efther clothes press or bed- room, but the side of the stairs is lathed and plastered to the floor. There is no door or lock or keyhole. The search here was given up and a bunt was made in the cellar. Looking up at the ceiling of the cellar a keyhole to the trapdoor was dis- covered by the ray of light penetrating it. An ax was used to burst Inthe trapdoor. About five gallons of liquor was found in the trap. ——— “It's Gar 4 Texas Siftings, Shortage and shrinkage are polite sub- stitutes for theft. When an educated Boston young lady entered a_public hall, she exclaimed: *‘Oh, dear; what a dread- ful odor of carburetted hydrogen?"” “Mum?” said the janitor, with a puz- zled expression. “The smell of carburetted hydrogen, she explained. “That's no kind of gin, mum,” replied the janitor; ‘‘that’s garse; the pipe is leaky, mum.” There are a great many public institu- tions gafbout which there is a very sua- piclous odor, suggestive of ‘‘something rotten In Denmark.” There isa leak A WONDERFUL OOUNTRY, Sitting Bull's Ola Domains Occupied by Cowboys—A Stockman's Exploration, Correspondence to the Miles City (Montana) Journal, Beyond Miles Oity northward to the British lines lies 8 reglon which may be properly called an anknown region. Save from buffalo hunters, treppers, wolf- poisoners, soldiers who followed Sitting Bull's trail, and government teamsters, but little information nas been given of this valuable and interesting country. Daring this summer, alike fearless of rustlers and stray bands of roving Indians Mr. G. W. Lang drove 6,000 young Texas cattle on the Big Dry, about 100 mlles north of Miles City. The Running Water Land and Oattle company, followed with several thonsand head of Dakota oattle, which they turned loose upon the Little Dry about 125 miles north of Miles City. Major T. H, Logan, of Fort Keogh, and MoBrlde have also located ranches and several thousand head of cattle on the Little Dry. Three old buffalo hunters, more venturesome still, have located a ranch, and about three hundred graded onstern cattle at Round Butte, between Bell creek and Squaw creek, on the Mis- souri river, nearly two hundred miles A great many Missourl and Dry late this season, and north of the Yellowatone. There is an abundance of grass and white sage in all this region, bat a scarci- ty of water, and it _is hoped that it will not be overstocked, necessitating, per- haps, a drive durlng dry seasons to bot- ter-watered ranges. As it is already, the cattle which will be driven to the Big Dry and adjacent country next season wliil need all the available water there. The Big Dry and tributary creeks are well timbered with cottonwood. On the south, till near the Yellowstone, the land is rolling and not rough enongh for per- foct shelter, Near tho Dryand Yellow- stone are rough, bad lands and abundant feed and shelter. North from the Dry the country grows rougher and rougher untll on the Missouri itself bad lands pile up moun- trins high, and are almost impassable, even to pack outfits.

The cottonwood growth along the Mis. souri is something to be wondered at by those who never saw full-grown cotton- woods. The crests of the higher bad lands are crowned with pines, and at distant interuals along the rivera few parties maintain wood-yards to supply the occasional steamers running up the Missouri as far as Fort Benton. Beyond these an occasional band of halfrbreeds or Indians, the south bank of the Mis- souri is uninhabited. Several weeks siuce Messrs. G. W. Lang and John ‘Lang, with several of thelr cowboys—of whom the writer is one—having occasion to ride oyer a large scope of country north of the Missouri, some account of that region may interest parties looking for range. CEMBER 24 18t4 tered by what we believed to be the Con- chetto, the Fourchette and Beaver creeks though we are not certain of these names, none of us haviog boen in that country before. Further southeast we traveled the greater part of one day over a long meadow which contained at least 40,000 acres of good hay land. Then turning into the bad lands and broad bottoms of the Missouri we sought our original cros sing place at Van Baren's, noar the mouth of Hell creek. Right glad were woe to be safe on the south side of the river once moro. Being so late in the season the river might have got to run- ning slush ice and prevented swimming our horses and ferrying ourselves across in the skiff.

A girl who works in a paper box fac- tory somewhere became engaged to marry & young workman in the same factory. Both were young and rosy— she luscious nineteen and very pretty and pleasant to look upon, For some reason that doesn’t matter she broke oft the engagement and told him to go his way and let her go hers. Then she had him arrested and taken before a juatice, charged wsth annoying her. She told the judge her grievance was that when- ever she young man met her he put his arms around her and kiesed her, slthough she kept telling him that it was all over between them now and she didn't want his_ kisses any more. Tho young man said in defense that he had kissed her a thousand times a day for two fr throe years, and that he had got in such a habit ot it that he couidn’t help tt. He had tried to re- strain himself but he couldn't. The judgo maid; ‘‘Young mam, you must stop it.” He replied, ‘1 can't judge. I would if T could. Iwill try agaln.” The kindly judge, full of fellow-feoling for young and ardent humanity, discharged the likely-looking young man from cus- tody, and the pretty pair of them left the court-room and strolled down the street together Ina few minutes the girl came back, peeped In and said demurely: ‘““Judge he has kissed me again right out in the street.” The amused man of jus- tice said: **Waell, I can’t stop it. The best thing youcan do is td marry him, and that'll cure him.” And the couple stepped into thecourt room and the judge married them then and there. It wasa case of kissing to conquer. —— tesponsibility He Incurred.

THE PRACTICES OF SOME DOCTORS, “The principal reason for the high od | price of drugs is the extraordinary per- centage demanded by a large proportion of the medical faculty, I am putting it mildly when I say that many of the doc- tors, men of good repute, make an ar- rangement by which they guarantee the custom of thelr patients toa given drug store, and get in return a certain amount of the money charged for medicine. This roentage varles according to the amount of the doctors’ practice, those having the greatest number of patients getting more than the physicians of minor note. It may surprise you to hear, but on my word 1t is & fact, that it is not at all unusual for a physician to get FO per cent. of all the money paid on his prescriptions, while I know of cases where the doctor's share runs as high as 60 per cent.
