The above article, being the pro
gram for the Skagway parent

by request, owing to the fact that
a. number o* the members of the or

the benefit of those persons, we
cheerfully reprint it from our issuo
Jf Nov. 22.
deny ia court that the water of
the Patomac river contains five
times as much lithia per gallon as
that of their own manufacture.
There are many other bottled
waters which are lust as bad.
Some of the many preparations
boueht at the drug stores by women
are cold creams and face lotions,
If it were really known what these
litue white jars with fancy names
contained there would be fewer
sold. For instance—the "Magical
Beautifler" sells for $1.50 aud real
ly contains six cents worth of ca
lomel and a pint of water.
Another member of thia class,
"Amarol" is 90 per cent Epsom
sals and 10 per cent borax. Sells
for 75c and cost Vic. "Spurmax,"
a common cream consists of Epsom
salts and borax. Sells at 50c,
costs 2c.
"Pyroxia" is vaseline perfumed
with oil of bergamot can oil made
from a variety of lemon) aud is
sold to grow eyebrows and eye
lashes. One dollar is rather high
for vaselien.
These creams may not be so
well known to all of us, but the
question is — Are Hind's, Porn
piau and various others any dif
ferent?
S> it goes. The remedy for
this is to use plain standard soaps,
cold , creams and vaselines, sold
as such, and elude tUe fancy jars
witl- fancy names
"Peruna" for colds, etc., has been
dragged through the courts eo
many times that it is pretty well
advertised as to its being ab
solutely no good. At one time it
contained 60 per cent alcohol, but
now has onlv 26 per cent and less
than a liaJf of 1 per cent oi solids.
The internal revenue bureau decid
ed it had to be sold under a liquor
license, but it has changed just
enough to escape this ruling.
"Mother's Friend" has these
appealing labels, "The Joy of Moth
erhood.'" "Awaiting the Joyful
Sound," "Coming of the Sun
beam," "A real live doll to fondle
Is woman's greatest happiness." It
also says that "Mother's Friend"
thoroughly lubricates every nerve,
tendon and muscle, and that by
its use there will be no pain, dis
tress or neusea, and no danger of
laceratipn or other accideuts. This
dope has been through the courts
and declared to be misbranded as
nothing was found but oil and a
small amount of Boap. Sells for $1
per bottle.
Lydia P. V. Compound and cure
for womens diseases, claims to
save women from the surgeon's
knife, make ♦'»<! childless happy
mothers, the blue and discouraged
are made jubilant—these miracles
to be performed bjr taking this com
pound which Is 19 per cent alcoii.ol
(more than is iu m06t wines) with
only six tenths of 1 pea* cent of boI
ids o" any kind, u trace o£ tannin,
aminoula, a little 'reducing isugar anJl
some bitter suUtunce. As long as
the mutis will curry these people's
advert sing and the papers print
their advertisements, they will
thrive.
"lJluk P1113 for Pale People," —
aids women's diseases, rheumatism,
St. Vitas' dance, locomotor ataxia,
(which is a syphllouB disease of
the spine and incurable ).
The ingredients are a co^iting of
sugar, calcium carbonate, and the
pink color is <iuo to cochineal, there
Is also iron, oxida (a form of rust),
Epsom salts and a faint trace of
alkaloids. So much for "Pink Pills
lor Pale People."
A laxative often given, to chil
dren Is Syrup of Figs. A physician
says—"Syrup of Figs, merely a fla
voring, contains next to 110 fl^s.
and a dose of senna given in a
fig might be easily admistered by
any mother." It is the whole fig
and not tha syruD of fig3 which has
the cathajtlc action.
The promotors of Casoarets,
(word taken from Cascara) harm
less enough In their way, enquire
pathetically whether you *re using
salts, cathartic pills, or castor oil,—
as though cascara was anything else
but the foundation for a cathartic
Pill.
KegariUees ol the cause, you are
assured of no headache, bad taste,
sour stomach or coated tongue by
morning, if all these pretensions
were true what a happy world this
would be!
Our old friend, Beacham's Pills,
composed of aloes, ginger, and soap,
sell at a handsome profit. These
preparations are all alike In their
commonplace non-curative ingre
dients and their excessive claims.
Tho famous l>r. Wiley says, "'Tis
true c^iidr^n may cry for Fletcher's
Castoria, but In my opinion they are
much bettor off without it, though
ii is free from narcotics (a sleep
produciny drug) and true, as far as
u-e can d«tormine, to the composi
tion idven on t'ag label." But
why afflict the delicate stomach of
baby w'th a mixture of baking soda,
senna, Rocheiie &alts, spirit of Gaul
teria, worm seed, peppermint and
anise, when a little hot water and
an enema will do the work without
infl'cting this burden on the sto
mach.
Children cry for a eood man
things that are not good for them
and I should place Castoria On the
list. f t
Headadio Mixtures
So far we Lave not mentioned
thoso drugs which are not only
distinctively harmful to health, but
by reason of being habit producing
have -ruined the nem»us system of
a great many women.
The principal group of these
drugs may be classed as coal-tar
products and include such drugs
aa aceitanilide, antlpyria and phen
acetin. These thioe drugs have
practically the same action.
Acetauilide beign the cheaper is
the basis cf all well known head
ache powders including "Orengine,"
"Shac," Bromo Seltzer, Royal Head
ache tablets and others. Many bo
called "brain foc<ls" also contain
those drugs.
To give yon an idea of the extent
of the use of these drugs aad the
danger attending their use, I will
give you an extract of a report
gathered from the evidence of
400 physicians in one year,—"811
casts of poisoning were reported,
614 of them beiug caused by ace
tanil'.de with the result of 29
deaths and 130 casea in which the
use hid become habitual rendering
the patients chronic invalids."
"Of these cases 44 per cent were
due to the use of patent modicines
in vrhich the presen.ce of the
drug n-as unknown."
It is not going too far to .say
that there is not a single head
ach? remedy on the market that
dees not contain one or the other
of these three drugs.
To turn to iiie iieia 01 me <=*<=
morij dangerous habit producing
druf5, we must consider morphine,
heroin, codino and cocaine, these
four being products of opiuan. At
the present time the use of these
drugs is forbidden by law except iu
a DUysicans prescription and under
the new Harrison law this use is
safeguarded bv many restrictions
and frequent inspections. Iu spite
of this there are still occassio»nally
found patent medicines which con
tain these drugs.
The soothing qualities oC the
many soothing syrups which are
given to bahies in order that th0

mother may not be disturbed by
their cries, are derived from one
or the other of these alfcaloidd of
opium or from paregori# which. Is a,
tincture of opiuui.
. Practically all the asthma cures
ana consumptlou cures, such as
"Tucker's Asthma Specific," "Da
vis' Asthma Remedy" and others
rely for their benefit to the patlen,t
on the cough restraining qualities
of the drug and for the benefit of
the manufacturer on the fact that
unknown to the patient the craving
for the drug was so firmly estab
lished as to continue its use ab
solutely necessary. Unquestionably
a special compartment In Hades *111
be reserved for these men who have
callously fattened their fortunes on
the misfortunes of their fellow
creatures.
In thit Bame class we find the
catarrh powders the basis of
which is cocaine.
All the remedies advertised to
cure epilepsy have as their base
bromide, a harmful habit producing
drug and of no value in the treat
ment of the disease. Some of them
contain even morphine and cocaine.
It is impossible to convey to you
In a short paper the accumulated
horrors arising from the exploita
tion of patent remedies. Almost
a billion dollars a year is expended
by a fatuous public for remedies
which are In 80 per cent of cases
actually harmful and In every case
of more than doutbful value. We
blame the alcoholic for spending his
money for drink, but he at least
knows what he Is going to feet.
The patent medicine user is blind
ly purchasing something whose
only benofit is tD enrich a brutally
callc-us manufacturer.
The above paper was read at the
Mothers' Circle of the Parent^Teach
er association by Mrs. Z* H. John
ston, at the meeting held In tbe
public school, November 19, 1915.
