BEE: THE DRUGGISTS AFTER CUT PRICE SHOPS Question of Slashing Prices on Pat- ent Medioines Comes Before the Pharmaceutical Convention. TOOK IN DEN SHOW LAST NIGHT Whether or not $1 patent med- icines shall be sold any longer for 9 cents is a question that is going to agitate the Nebraska State Phar-| maceutical association, Ing at Hotel Fontenelle this morn- continuing until Thursday noon.

Many who heard these mysterious utterances ‘walked no more with Him' and it was then that He asked of his disciples, ‘Will ye also go away? to which Peter awered in the words of the text, ‘Lord to whom shall we go?

A. “If it 1s right to drink booze, why do you not ask a blessing over it before you drink it, a4 we do over our daily food?" asked Fioyd F. Miles, posing as a sec- ond Billy S\nday, from Des Moines, in a whirlwind talk to a house full of men at the Young Men's Christian a. soclation rooms Sunday afternoon. This is a sample of his style of language: “0O, yes, I got mine, too, I didn't get drunk over the bar, but I got mine in the clubs and the swell dumps. And T want to say to you, no matter whether @ man gets his booze in the ssloon or in the swell clubs, he is just as much of & hog if he tanks up. If you want to know my stand on the boose question, I will say that I would close ard wreck every drug store and bootlegging joint and other booze joints. Then, too, 1 would set & match to the whole” bunch of boose and let It go up In smoke." Mr. Miles made a number of addresscs in various churches of Omaha during the day. He is one of those who ‘‘hit the sawdust trafl” in a Bllly Sunday revival meeting in Des Moines a year or so ago. Mr. Mfles is a professional politician and at present city treasurer of Des Moines. He is also secretary of the Press club at Des Moines, having been formerly city editor of the Des Moines Capital. Austrian Battleship Sinks Own Destroyer A Mistake Made by Many.
