QUACKS- AND DOCTORS , Swindlers Who Borrow the Gloat Bccrctn of tlio Jj loratory A Ucnser Tor Onr High-Prlccd DriiRS An Interview That "Will Interest tlio Pulrilc , Salem Call. Whllo tlio journalist WAS looking ere an assortment of brushes , a sickly look ing and rather shabbily clad woman cami Into the drug store nnd handed a pro sorlptlon to the man In charge. Afto glancing at the paper a moment , the proprietor priotor handed it back , saying : " 1'ha proscription Is a humbug , madam , anc the man who sent It to you is a swindler , Ho knows you cannot havu it put up ir any drug store , but will supply it hlmsoll on the receipt from yon of so many del lars. If you take my advice you will save your money , for you will got nothing bul some colored slops In return , " "Oh , you are mistaken , sir , " replied the woman , ' 'for 1 got this receipt from n clergyman.1 ' "very well , madam , yon can do as you choose , but I assure you your money will bo thrown away. " "Thank you , sir , but I know yon must bo Trrong , " answered the woman , as she loft the establishment. SCANDALOUS DECEPTIONS. Turning to the newspaper man the chomlst said ! * 'Tho chances are more than even that that poor woman will send for the stud. It is really too bad that there seems no way to stop such swindling. The man who wrote that so- called proscription belongs to a class of scoundrels who cheat the public under the cloak of religion. It is done in this way : An advertisement appears , gener ally in n religious or weekly paper , to the effect that llor. somebody or other , whllo prosecuting his labors as & mission ary , discovered that a certain herb , pecu liar to the country , was successfully em ployed by the natives for the euro of such n complaint. Having proved its virtues by oxporimontlng in his own family , the holy man is anxious to bonollt the rest of humanity , and will Bond a proacrlption frco of charge to nuy sufferer who applies for it , The gudgeon bites , and in res ponse to letters tots ; a document similar to the ono that woman had. In it there will bo several Ingredients correctly given , and then ono or two Items of gib berish , which represents the name of the unknown herbs. In 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 , ho 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 sonic powders or a bottle of stuff that did nut coat 10 cents to prepare. It would astonish you to know how much money has boon wasted In this way. If a patient rallies for a time 3r goto well through natural causes , the praises of the missionary medicine are mng , and fresh dupes are caught. " "That is pretty bad , " replied the bruBh-huntoa , "but you must acknowl edge that the public are pretty badly ihonsod oven when they buy their mod el nes from the regular druggists. Why s it that yon people charge such onor- nous prices for things that cost yon so ittle ? " IEASOX KOK HIGH PRICED PHESCRHTIONS. "For the simple reason , so far as many ) f us are concerned , that wo can't help t. In the first place , there is no law > rohibiting an incompetent person from itarting a drug store , and the result is hat many people adopt this trade where > ro entirely ignorant of its scientific irlnciples. They employ clerks who may ir may n6t understand the business , so- uro the patronage of certain physicians , nd are thereby assured a certain amount if trade , which they help out by the sale if nicknacks that have grown to bo a egltimato branch of a druggist's stock. t is a shame that these ignoramuses hould bo allowed to gull the public ; and , specially ao , as it is done with the con- livanco of the doctors. Wo should have system similar to the one in Germany nd other European countries , where nly so many druggists are allowed to a ivon population , where the prices are ixed by law so as to permit of a reason- bio profit , where the drugs are subject o constant scrutiny by official xports , and where no ono an make out n proscription until 10 has paused a rigid examination as to iis qualification for chemical work. If it rould bo contrary to republican prlnci- ilos to limit the number of shops and the calo of prices , wo might at all events tave a law that would guarantee the [ nality of the drugs and prevent impost- > rs from handling them. Medicine , t best is an inexact science , and the ruggiat is the last court of appeal to rhich a sick man may apply. Fhyal- ians are but human , and oven the ablest if them are given to errors now and hen , while the half-educated mass of hem blunder through Ignorance instead if accident Many times proscriptions tro brought in which a competent chem- st will at once recognize as incorrect , or irobably so , and ho will quietly send iround to the doctor to have the nocos- lary corrections made , or , If the doctor san't bo found in time , will lesson the lose on his own responsibility , and no- , ify the physician of the fact as soon as possible , so that ho can take prompt ac- lon in the matter If necessary. The ivorago clerk of the present day , how- jvor , is unequal to such an exercise of judgment , and slaps the prescription to gether without a thought of the conio ponces ; indeed , many of the clerks are anablo to put up a complicated proscrip tion properly , whjch does not prevent ; heir making the attempt , however , and landing the mixture over as the genuine irtlclo. irtlclo.THE PIUCTICKS OK SOME POCTOlH. "The principal reason for the high price of drugs is the extraordinary per centage demanded by a largo proportion of the medical facnlty. 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 their patients to a given drug store , and get in return a certain amount of the money charged for medicine. This percentage varies according to the amount of the doctors' practice , these having the greatest number of patients getting more than the physicians of minor note. It may surprise you to hear , but on my word It'is a fact , that it is not at all unusual for a physician to got 0 per cent , of all the money paid on his proscriptions , while I know of cases where the doctor's share runs as high as GO per cent. Can you expect to got medicine at a reasona ble rate under such an arrangement ? In many instances the physician la content himself with advising his patient to p&t- ronlza such a drug store , because It is the best , etc. , but in others ho actually writes out his pro scriptions In hieroglyphics that cai only bo deciphered at the stoto in qucs tlon. You can sciwcely blame us drug gists for conniving at this form of swindl ing , for nnless wo do so our bnsinosi would amount to nothing. The phyiclan would comblno against a man who offeree them nothing , and in time ho would un questionably bo ruined. As it Is wltl the percentages that are paid to the doc tors , wo have to limit our own share to i reasonable profit in order not to dlsgus our customers too thoroughly , and there by drlvo them away. 1 do not hcsltat to say that the retail drug business is it a miserable and fraudulent condition , anc that the lack of proper laws and the ac tion of a majority of the physicians an causes of this state of alVilra. The doct ors are cutting thotr own throats as wol an ours , however , for they are Btoadlj | driviug the public from the patronage o : thn regular school , to channels when they can obtain attend anco and modi cln os more cheaply. This fact is boln ; proven day by day , but the physician ! seem blind to it. " ' Origin of ClirlHttiiBS Gins , To the editor of tlio Globe : What was the origin of Christmas glfta ? n. r. it , The custom grow out of a very old ro- llglous rite. When It was the rule to have shrines in almost every house , and at glvon points along the highways , it was customary on Christmas morning to lay upon the shrines sums of money for the poor , bouquets and written benedic tions. Trovolors prized the latter , and the poor were crateful for the first. The bouquets and trifles were greatly prized In those days by those to whom they were given after having served as votive offer ings to some saint. Then , there was something BO 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 ns a gem. It was not the thing itself but that which it sug gested that was prized. A Dlnlno Liquor Xrivp * Boston Herald. The deputy sheriff lately found in Lewiston - iston , Mo. , an artificially-concealed liquor trap , which has defied the police for a long time. A search was made by Deputy - ty Sheriff Hinkloy on this house a num ber of weeks pgo , 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 on is a bodroom. A portion tion of the space under the stairway is unoccupied by either clothes press or bedroom - room , but the side of the stairs is lathed and plastered to the floor. There is no door or lock or keyhole. The search hero was given up and a hunt was made in the cellar. Looking up at the coiling of the collar a keyhole to the trapdoor was dis covered by the ray of light penetrating it. An ax was used to burst ln-the trapdoor. About five gallons of liquor was found in the trap. "It'n Gurao. " Texas Sittings. Shortage and shrinkage are polite sub stitutes for thoft.

Sitting Hull's Ola Domains Occuplo by Cowboys A Stockman's Exploration , Correspondence to the Miles City ( Montani Jonroal. , Beyond Miles City northward to th British lines lies a region which may b properly called an unknown region. Sav from buffalo hunter ? , treppors , wol ; poisoners , soldiers who followed Slttin Bull's ' trail , and government toamston but little information nas boon given c this valuable and interesting country. During this summer , alike fearless c rustlers and stray bands of roving Indian Mr. G. W. L ng drove 6,000 youugToxa cattle on the Big Dry , about 100 mile north of Miles City. The llunniog Wato Land and Cattle company , followed will several thousand head of Dakota cattle which they turned loose upon the Llttl Dry about 125 miles north of Miles City Major T. II. Logan , of Fort Koogb , am MoBrldo have also located ranchc and several thousand head of cattle en tin Llttlo Dry. Throe old buffalo hunters moro venturesome still , have located i ranch , and about three hundred gradet eastern cattle at Round Bntto , botwoot Bell crook and Squaw crook , on the Mis sourl river , nearly two hundred miloi northwest of Mtlos City. A great man ) parties have boon prospecting on the Bi Missouri and Dry late this season , and probably the next year will witness at Influx of cattle to all available ranges north of the Yellowstone. There is an abundance of grass and whlto sago In all this region , bat a scarci ty of water , and it is hoped that it will not bo overstocked , necessitating , per haps , a drive during dry seasons to bet tor-watered ranges. As it is already , the cattle which will bo driven to thu Big Dry and adjacent country next season will need all the available water thoro. The Big Dry and tributary crooks are well timbered with cottouwood. On the south , till near the Yellowstone , the land is rolling and not rough enough for per fect she ! tor , Near the Dry and Yellowstone - stone are rough , bad lands and abundant Eeod aud shelter. North from the Dry the country grows rougher aud rougher until on the Missouri itself bad lands pile up inoun- trins high , and are almost impassable , DVOU to pack outfits. At Hell trook no misnomer Yankee Din , domiciled there with Van Buron , says a rider may start [ rom Nan Burou's to leave Holt crook ralloy , and , after several hours of zig- jag hill-climbing , may still bo able to spit down from badlands cliffs on the roof 3t Yanshack. The Missouri bottoms are generally ; ; oed soil but overgrown with brush aud greenwood , affording scant hay grass. The cpttonwood growth along the Mis souri is something to bo wondered at by these who never saw full-grown cotton- woods. The crests of the higher bad lands are crowned with pines , and at distant internals along the river a few parties maintain wood-yards _ to supply the occasional steamers running up the Missouri as far as Fort Bouton. Beyond these an occasional band of halfrbroeds 3t Indians , the south bank of the Mis- lourl is uninhabited. Several weeks since Messrs. G. W. Lang and John Lang , with several of ihelr cowboys of whom the writer is ) ue having occasion to ride oyer a largo icopo of country north of the Missouri , lomo account of that region In ay interest parties looking for rango. Swimming their saddle ponies and pack mimals across the Missouri near the nouthof Hell crook , and crossing thorn- iclvos In"a"ikifl' , the party followed up a Iry creek for a time , and turning almost lortheast entered a bad lands country , 'oiling but very rough , scantily grassed , pith little pools -bitter water. Noarlng kfIlk river , after two days' ride , this al- cost desert region changed abruptly into ho finest grasses of all Montana kinds , rlth abundant shelter for cattle. Along rlilk river are long stretches of fertile oam , covered with a growth of sun- lowers , always an indtcaoion of warm , ich soil. Milk river Is well timbered rith oottonwood for building and fencing , ts water is abundant and pjure , but near ts lower-end its banks for several days' ido are too stoop and miry for cattle to rater at all. Several days' ride up-rivor he banks became sandy and firm. It ro- elves hero a number of tributary creeks , rhose pure , clear water ripples over pob- ly , firm bottoms. The further up-river no rides the bettor becomes the country jr grazing. This season thousands of ons of hay coald have boon cut there in very direction. . Nuaring the Indian reservation of Bel- nap the party discovered ( ? ) a lake about wolvo miles long , seeming deep and well booked with fish. Around this lake was bo best summer range the writer ever w. Before reaching Belknap a nuin- er of Assiniboino Indian villages were assod. The inhabitants manifested a voly interest In our party. At a dia- inco they evidently mistook us for rust- jrs , but nearer they recognized our call- ig and cried out : "Mo know cow- oy. " They certainly had heard of cow- oya , but our party was evidently the rst cowboys ever soon by them. The ucka admired our leather chaps , ao early shaped like their own buckskin 3ggins , and pointing to a pair of Texas haps , with a broad seam flap , ejaculated , 'Cheyenne Injprt. " At Belknap , in charge of Maj. Lincoln , ho Indians this season raised an abund- nt crop of qorcnls , hay and roots ; corn , bout fifty bushels per aero ; saw there wonty-six potatoes weighing sixty ounds. The Indians have a surplus of oven thousand bushels moro than they rill need for winter usn. They will have nug shacks built. Their ponies are in- roasing are hog fat and they seem to 10 content under Maj. Lincoln's ru o. "urthor on the Gros Venires occupy a erfect paradise of a stock region. At be time our party passed ( October 14 18) ) ho bunch grass was green and luxuriant , At Fort Assiniboino , reputed to bo the nest , best-built garrison in the north- rest , wo learned that cattle and horses Iways wintered well there , and both amu out fat iu the spring. Contractor iroadwater's wcrk steora and mules run- ling near the post were grass-fat at the ime of pur visit. At this point we wore inly thirty-five miles from the British ino , but. although In October , the nights roro only frosty and the days dollctoiialy ileasant. Turning southward wo passed along ho eastern base of Bear Paw mountains , imong creeks aud lakes and beautiful neadows without number , the great foa- ures being abundant food , fine iheltor , ma-pure , running water. But in the basin botweenBoarPawand .he Little Rockies wt far as the eye could each lay the finest grazing region seen. Cho weather was getting sharp , but flow- > rs were In bloom by tbo roadside , snd .his In tbo latter part of October , If any reader thlnku we exaggerate the worth of the Little Rockies as a grazing place let turn see it himself. He'll be converted. Turning eastward from the Llttlo Rock- lei we rode extensively over another per * tlon of splendid grazing region , well wa tered by what wo believed to bo the Con chotto , the Fourchotto and Beaver crock though wo are not certain of those name * none of us having bacn in that countr before. Further southeast wo traveloi the greater part of ono day ever a loin raoadow which contained at least -lO.Oci acres of good liny land. Then turiiin ) into the bad lands and broad bottom ] o the Missouri wo sought our origiual cros slog place at Van Huron's , near thi mouth of IIoll orcok. Rlqht glad won wo to bo safe on the south sldo of thi river ouco moro. Being so late in thi season the river might have got to run nlng slush ice and prevented swiminiu ; pur horses and ferrying ourselves acrosi in the skiff. Had this occurred you maj imagine our Interesting condition ; on thi north sldo of the Missouri , short of grub no tent , and hundreds of miles from nnj settlement or garrison , in a country when gamn is now very scarce. Of such delights lights is a cowboy's lifo sweetened occa siomlly. In the event of our being frozen on in wo would have had to make the best of the situation on fresh moni straight until the Missouri froz9 solid enough for us to cross ever on the ice , In concluding this article it is nocotsi * ry to state that all the fine gracing region north of the Missouri to the British line is Indian reservation at presenton which no cattle except contractors' are allowed to grnze. But it is believed that the res- orvatlon will bo thrown open to settle ment early this winter. If so , and any person needs a homo or a stock range , take our word for it and see the country north of the Missouri before locating else- whoro. She KlBBi'd to Conquer. A girl who works in a paper box fac tory somewhere became engaged to marry a young workman in the same factory. Both were young aud rosy she luscious nineteen nnd very pretty and pleasant to look upon , For some reason that doesn't ' matter she broke oil the engagement and told htm to go his way and lot her go hers. Then she had him arrested aud taken before a justice , charged wsth annoying hor. She told the judge her grievance was that whenever - over she young man mot her ho put his arms around her and kissed her , although she kept tolling him that it was all ever between them now and she didn't want his kisses any moro. The young man said in defense that ho had kissed her a thousand times a dny for two i jr three years , and that ho had got in such n habit ot it that ho couldn't help It. Ho had tried to re strain himself but ho couldn't. The judge said ; "Voung man , you must stop it. " Ho replied , " 1 can't judgo. I would If I could. I will try again. " The kindly judge , full of follow-fcollng for young and ardent humanity , discharged the likely-looking young man from cus tody , and the pretty pair of thorn left the court-room and strolled down the street together In a few minutes the girl came back , pooped In and said demurely : "Judgo'ho has kissed mo again right out in the street. " The amused man of jus tice said : "Woll , I can't stop it. The best thing you can do is td marry him , and that'll euro him. " And the couple stopped into the court room and the judge married thorn then and thoro. It waa a case of kissing to conquor. Tlio Responsibility Ho Incurred. Detroit Free Press.
