CAPTURED AND BRANDED BY THE CAMANCHE INDIANS IN THE YEAR ’60. 


A TRYE NARRATIVE, 


In the year 1860 1 was captured by the Co- [ 


manche Indians while journeying with my 
‘family to California. My parents and an 
only brother were murdered before my eyes, 
while my young wife was saved to meet a 
fate worse than death. 

They intended to torture me before the 


eyes of my wife, before putting me to an) 


and, but circumstances occurred whereby 
they found I could be made useful to them, 
and after much wrangling they concluded 
to spare my life also. ‘They branded each of 
us upon the chin with the brand of a cap- 
tive, which mark can never be efiaced while 
time with us lasts. My wife was soon sold 
toa neighboring tribe, for afew_ trinkets, 
while I was put to hard labor of all descrip- 
tions. After seven years of hardship, toil 
and privation, and suftering indignities al- 
most too degrading to mention, I at last suc- 
ceeded in making my escape. j 

i traveled by night and rested in hiding 
places by day, until at length I fell in with 
agarty of friendly Indians, who were guid- 
ing some miners to a desired route of travel. 
{joined their party. and together we jour- 
neyed to the mines of San Ildefonso. In the 
course of a few months I learned from these 
same friendly Indians that a white female, 
branded as a captive,‘had been seen among 
the Apaches. This I believed to be my wife; 


and after months of almost discouraging ef- 


torts, I succeeded in “effecting her rescue, 
risking my life and her own ae the effort. — 
+ have lately published the sad history of 

myself and wife and entitled it “Seven and 

Nine Years among the Comanches and 

Apaches.” 

The object of THis little pamphlet is to 
give the public the benefit of valuable in- 
_ formation which I obtained while a captive 

pian the Indians, and which knowledge I 
of great value while among the min- 


fi 


tsof San Mdefonso. 





Wakometkla was the Medicine Man of the 
tribe with whom I was a captive. He com- 
pelled me to gather the gums, barks, herbs 
and roots necessary in the treatment of the 
diseases to which the tribe were subject. 
He taught me to prepare these remedies in- 
to a bitter compound which he gave to the 
people of the tribe when sick. I gathered 
these medicines at odd times for six years; 
and, althongh | THEN never expected to 
have the opportunity of making them useful 
to civilized people, still I felt.a deep interest 
in watching their effect npon his patients, 
and often. wondered how this wad man of 
the plains could have possessed himself of 
such wonderful knowledge in the cure of 
Various diseases. 

- While working in the mines, | freqnenitly 
had occasion to make use of the Indian 
Medicine. We were exposed to sudden 
changes, and in the raimy season, those of us 
who were as yet unaccustomed to the humid. 
atmosphere often falling sick, I found it 
useful to myself,and I did not besitate to 
urge upon. others the necessity of sing it. 
Its beneficial effects soon made an agreeable 
change in the health of our party, andin a 
short time we became the most rugged par- 
ty of miners who had ever worked in that 
field. Theysoon styled me Dector, but it 
gave me no displeasure, for alfhongh I took 
no credit to myself fur the success of Wako- 
metkla’s compound, still I felt Iwas the 
means of its introduction among these sons 
of toil, andJ felt a wholesome satisfaction 
in witnessing its beneficial infiuence. 

After Sate Spe wife, we soon returned 
to. the east, and although I have been en- 
gaged in other pursuits, still I never fully 
relinquished my interest in the remedies 
which Il was taught to REVERENCE while 
among the Indians. Ihave been too poor to 
introduce the sigh deer and [ did not wish 
to ask help from others. i

In the fall of i871 1 tell in with ap old | 


friend and room-mate, who was a medical 
student inthe city of New Haven, while lI 


was engaged in that city in another. capac- | tention to the directions. 


ity; when informed that he was practicing 
medicine, I told him of 
the cures I had seen made 
among the Indians and 
the miners with Wako- 
metkla’s medicine; and 
expressed a wish that it 
could be made universal- 
ly known. He at once 
proposed to assist me in 
introducing it, as he was 
satistied that no better 
remedy could be made 
than that formed from 
the roots, gums, herbs 
and barks which entered 
soto its composition. 

My friend has furnished 
the necessary funds for 
the introduction of the 
medicine, and as he isan 
educated, able physician, 
I feel contident its intro- 
duction. will, be doubly 
successful, aided by his 
experience. 

As the far west is not 
as dangerous a locality as 
it was some twelve years 
since, and as it willbe 
necessary that I visit my 
old. haunts once or twice each year, 1 have 
thought it proper to leave the entire man- 
agement of the business with him. 

The publication of the book above referred 
to, also occupies much of my leisure time, 
therefore I feel contident greater success 
will attend our efforts, if left to bis manage- 
ment and care. I, of course, shall devote 
the bulk of my time in obtaining the ma- 
terials necessary in the composition of the 
remedy, and in assisting in its manufacture. 

The medicine is the same now as when 
Wakometkla taught and compelled ime to 
make it; nothing is added, and nothing is 
taken away. It is without doubt the best 
purifier of the blood and renewer of the sys- 
tem which bas been’ known for many years. 
Isay whatI Know to betrue; for I have 
seen hundreds of sick Indians, miners, and 
others among my acquaintances, many of 
whom were given up by their physicians to 
die, entirely restored to health and strength 
by the use of this remedy. Newspaper men, 
calomel doctors, and others wedded to their 
family physicians, will denounce the medi- 
cine and callit and me a humbug. Tothese 
and all others, I would say, use the medicine 
yourself, and on your sick friends, and if 
upon trial, you are not satisfied that it pos- 
sesses REAL virtue, then eall upon my agent, 
and he or she will refund the money. 

_ Leaving the business management of the 
introduction of this truly remarkable Reme- 
dy to the superior intelligence of my friend, 


Dr. CLARK JONSON, and leaving the public | 


to judge for themselves of the merits of this 
rift of nature, lam, truly yours,

We have thought proper to name this

SYRUP. There are nospirits employed in

It purifies the Blood.’ 
It quiets the Nervous

It promotes Digestion. 
It Nourishes, Strength-

It carries off the old 
blood, and makes New. | 
_ It opens the pores. of .

healthy perspiration. 
The Indian Syrup coes 
all this; for ALi. diseases 
arise from a bad state. of 
the blood. This yirusor | 
impurity m the blood, is: 
effteetually neutralized. 
and destroyed by the use, 
of the Syrup. lf the 
Liver, Stomach, Kidneys, 
Bowels, Nerves, Muscles 
and Brain are kept in motion and fed by 
bad blood they must soon wear out. 0 
The Syrup makes good blood which

: Have You Liver Disease? = 
If the skin be sallow and muddy, if there 
be ringing in the ears, constipation of the 
bowels, dull’ pains in the side; sick head- 
ache; sick stomach, hot and dry skin, spots 
before the eyes, bad taste in the mouth, 
cold feet ‘and hands, sleepiness, giddiness; 


loss of otic bad circulation of the bland, 


swelled limbs, &c., &c> then you may con-. 
clude your liver is out of order and that you: 
need yt st to start it into action. ‘The: 
liver is more liable to get out of order than 
any other organ of the body. Its duty is to 
filter the impurities from the blood, and 
when it becomes weak, obstructed and  dis- 
eased, and fails to do its duty properly, then 
the whole body sutters in consequence. 
Nothing will more speedily and effectaally 
remove billiousness and inactivity of the 
liver, than the Inpran BLoop Syrup. It) 
soon brings the rose to the cheek and the 
lily to the contplexion, elasticity to the step, 
and brillianey to the eve; and the patient) 
feels like a newly made being. || baa} 
Kees Have You Dyspepsia ? re 
Does your food lie like a dead weight in 


‘your stomach, after eating? Does your food | 


sour on your stomach? Do your sides trem-_ 
ble, and does your. heart palpitate after eat- 
ing? Is there. difficulty in’ breathing? 
Headache, dizziness, nervonsness, bad’ 
breath, irritable temper, loss ot strength. It 
any or all of those symptoms exist, you may ~ 


conclude your stomach has dst its power to — 7 


earry the food out of the system. | 


4 


The gastric juice of the stomach, which is 
piiced there to dissolve the food, has be- 
come too weak to doits work, consequently, 
the food lies in the stomach and ferments, 
giving rise to all the distressing symptoms 
above named. To cure dyspepsia in its 
many varied forms, we must first. make the 
gastric juicesufficiently strong to take hold 
~eon the food and dissolve it, as scon as it 
reaches the stomach. The Syrup does this, 
andin ALL cases cf dyspepsia, the SYRUP 
should be taken INSTANTLY AFTER eat- 
ing, before fermentation of the food has al- 
ready setin. The Syrup taken at this time, 
80 increases the strength of the gastric juice, 
that no difficulty is experienced in dissolv- 
ing the food,and it SOON digests and passes 
out of the stomach. 

To every miserable dyspeptic I would say: 
bay a bottle of the Syrup, and if you do not 
feel you have been benefited, then call upon 
the agent, and request him or her to refund 
it; (our agents are requested to do this in all 
es where the parties claim they have not 
m benefited.) 

Remember, ore ae should take the 
Syrup INSTANTLY AFTER eating; before 
fermentation of the food has already set 1n, 
for 1t is EASIER TO PREVENT fermentation 
than to arrest it, after having begun. Put 
the SyRuP on the table, and as soon as you 


have fihishéd’ your ‘meals, take half a tea- 
ci diluted in water; (do not take the 
YRUP clear.) 


: Blood ‘Disease. : 


No part or organ of our bodies can thrive 
on bad blood. e take food in our bodies 
to neurish them, and after the nutritious 

of the foed have served their purpose, 
m making fat, muscle and blood, the refuse 
or anautritious part should be carried off 
through the bowels And through the kid- 
neys, and through the sweat of the skin. 
Now, if the bowels are choked up, so that 
there be not an evacuation atleast once 
each day, and, if .the skin is not in acondi- 
tion to sweat, and the kidneys are not pass- 
mg off the watery parts of what has been 
eaten, then, indeed, is the persen in a criti- 
eal condition; for, although the system may 
hold out for 1 while under such disastrous 
circumstances, still it. cannot endure in 
health, any considerable time, for every 
day that the waste part of the food 1s pent 
up in the system, the blood is becoming 
more and more poisoned. This poisoning 
will soon show itself in pimples, swellings, 
bloatings, rough skin, pufple spots, blotches 
in the hair, moth patches, andésin any and 
every difficulty of the organs of the body, 
which are fed on this impure blood. 

If the heart be fed on this invpure blood, 
it cannot thrive. Ifthe lungs receive im- 

are blood into them, they cannot thrive. 

the liver be compelled tofilter, month af- 
ter month, and year after year. poisonous 
substances, it will soon give out; and so we 
aheue say of each and every érgan of the 

‘Keep the fountain of blood pare, and 
there will be no difficulty with any organ or 


part of the body. (In eruptions, boils, sores, 
&c., the Syrup used externally as well as 





internally willbe verv usefal.} 


Nervous Debility, Heart Disease, Scro- 
 fula, Kidney Disease, : 

and every other variety of disease, cannot 

exist on pure blood. Bad blocd makes these 


diseases; cleanse the blood and the disease 
will disappear. 


Rheumatism, 


arises from acidin the blood. The Svrur 
will sweeten the blood and cleanse it, and 
thus earry off the disease. 


Worms, 


are caused by slime in the bowels; cleanse 
out the slime with the Syrup, and the 
worms having lost their resting piace, wil! 
soon follow; for they cannot thrive except 
ae the slimy accumulations in the bow- 
els. 


Diseases of Females. 


The Syrup regulates the female system in 
the most satisfactory manner. All the dis- - 
eases to which females are subject, are 
apeot ts benefite by th use of the SyrvP. 

unken eyes, pale faces, hollow cheeks, dark 
circles under the eyes, are soon removed by 
the use of the Syrup. 

Ladies try one bottle; it will cost you 
nothing if not benefited. In cases of ulcera- 
tion of the womb, and: inflammation, an in- 


jection of the Syrup somewhat diluted with 


water, be found useful. It should, in 
such cases be used ‘with a female syringe, 
‘use continued internally as well as 
ocally. 


Fever and Ague, 


When the blood has become poisoned with 
theimpure atmosphere of malarious districts 
nothing will more speedily p it and set 
it right than tbe Inptan BLoop Syroup. 
Give it a trial and satisfy yourself of its eff- 
cacy in such Gdiffieultics. 


Kidney Diseases, Dropsy, &c., 


and many other difficulties are cured by the 
use of the Syrup. Ifthe watery portions of 
our food are not passed off, they must, when 
retained in the system, produce serious dif- 
ficulties. Language fails when attempting 
to describe the sufferings of persons whose 
kidneys are out of order; gravel, back ache, 
inflammation «:the bladder, and of the 
delicate: membraues of the urinary organs 
are the result, if the water is not regularly 


‘and gh aioe earried off through the kid- 
‘The 


neys. Syrup is effectual in promoting 
the secretion of the watery and unnutritious 
rtions of the food, and in carrying it off 

y its proper outlets. ; 

Whatever portion of our food is unservice- 
able should be passed off in the water, in 
the sweat, and from the bowels, If these 
useless matters are retained, disease is sure 
to follow; for then the blood becomes _pois- 
oned with the impurities which should pass 
off in their proper channels. 

The Syrup isa powerful cleanser of the 
blood; it starts the liverand kidneys into ac- 
tive onee om and acts on al} the seeretions 
of the body. I% carriesoff old and foul ail- 
ments in the blood, which are slow and sure 


d * 


death if permitted to remain in the system. 

It will cost you nothing to try a bottle, if you 

are NOT benefited, for the agent is authoriz- 

ed to refund the price of the bettle if youare 

not sufficiently satisfied with 1ts use to go on, 

bai feel that you have received any 
nefit. 


My Manner of Introducing the Indian 
Blood Syrup 


may seem strange to many persons, and it 
_ may not be out of place to give my reasons 
for introducing it through other means than 
the ordinary channels of trade. : 
Druggists, as a general thing, have their 
shelves filled with remedies of various kinds. 
They have no particular interest in any sin- 
gie one, but will reeommend and sell which- 
ever article they can make the most profit 


on. : 

The pamphlets, which have cost money, 
they permit to get scattered about in their 
stores and thrown about in waste places, 
where they are not seen by the people who 
are afflicted. By this means the medicines 
sent to them fail to reach the public, and the 
introduction of the remedy is frustrated by 
the carelessness or indifference of the clerks 
of druggists. We do not object to suppl 
druggists with the medicines, if they wi 
be conscientious in the distribution of the 
pamphlets, and take an interest in the sale 
of the medicine; but we are sorry to say this 
ease rarely oecurs among druggists who 
have numberless articles for sale, in no_sin- 
gle one of which they take any especial in- 
terest. sacle 

_By introducing the remedies through par- 
ties who are out of business and who need 
employment, we serve both the individual 
and the public. The agent sees that the 
pampblets are not thrown about and de- 
stroyed, for he takes an interest in letting 
the people know what he is about, and also 
endeavors to make it, profitable to himself 
by getting up a demand for the medicines 
among those who need it. Jn all cases where 
we have an agent in a place, we desire the people 
to buy the medicine from them, and thus save the 
risk of sending money to us by mail.

It has become customary in these times to 
sead out medical pamphletssilled with won- 





derful accounts and testimonials of what the 
medicines advertised have done for A. B. or 
C, ‘1 do not propose to fill up my pamphlet 
with any such certificates, but rather prefer 
to urge every one to make a trial of ONE bot- 
ile when, if they feel that they have derived no ben- 
efit from its use the agent will refund the money 
and charge the loss to me. 

The amount of refunded money which I 
am called upon to make good; is but a trifle, 
for the medicine tiniversally satisfies all who 
take it, and in nearly all cases, a person who 
has tried one bottle, instead of calling upon 
the agent for the money, are so weil plea 
with its effect, that they continue its use as 
loag as necessary and recommend it to all 
their ailing friends. : 

Any person who knows anything about BUS- 
INESS, must see from this extraordinary 
manner ot introducing the remedy, that our 
confidence in its healing virtues are un- 
bounded, and that our business could not 
long survive on this plan unless it was uni- 
versally successful. ; 

We are willing to take the risk for we

flures, gonflements, taches rouges, pustules 
dans les cheyeux, la teigne, et par une peau 
dure et grossiere, et dans. tous les embarras 
des organes qui se trouvent alimentces par 
un sang impur, Si le cour s’alimente de ce 
sang impur, il ne peut ¢tre en bon état. 

Si les poumons recorvent du sang mau- 
vais, ils ne peuvent étre sains. 

Si le foie est obligé, pendant des mois, des 
années de filtrer des substances .empoison- 
nées, il ne peut durer longtemps, et nous 
pouvons en dire autant de chaque organe de 
notre.corps.

pur, et alors yous n’€prouverez aucune dif- 
fieulté- avec toutes les parties et les organes 
‘du-corps. (Pour les ¢ruptions, boutons, 
plaies et clous, on trouvera trés utile de faire 
nn usage externe du sirop tout en le prenant 
intérieurement:

Ma maniere d’introduire |'Indian Blood 
peut paraitre curieuse & beaucoup de person- 
nes, et ici il n’est pas d¢placé de donner les 
raisons qui m’ont poussé 4 |’introduire par 
d’autres voies que celles usitées dans le com- 
merce, ; 

Les pharmaciens en général ont leurs 
étagéres remplies de remeédes de plusieurs 
sortes. Ils n’ont dintérét particulier dans 
aucun, mais recommanderont toujours et 
vendront celui qui leur rapportera le plus de 
bénéfice. 

Les pamphlets, qui ont cotité de l’argent 
il les laissent éparpillés dans leurs stores, ou 
les jettent dans des endroits 4 1’écart ow ils 
ne sont pas 4 la portée, sous la main, des 
personnes qui souffrent, C’est ainsi que les 
médecines qu’on leur envoie n’arriyent pas 
jJusqu’au public, et introduction de ces 
remédes est baffouce par la negligence ou 
Pindifférence des commis-pharmaciens., 
Nous ne demandons pas mieux que de four- 
air nos médecines aux pharmaciens, s’ils 
yveulent étre conscientieux et distribuer les 
pamphlets, et s’intéresser 4 la vente de la 
médecine; mais nous regrettons de devoir le 
dire, la chose est rare parmi eux, ils ont 
toujours un grand nombre d’articles a vendre 
et ils ne prennent pas d’intérét spécial dans 
aucun. 

En faisant Vintroduction de ce reméde 
au moyen de personnes qui ne sont pas dans 
le commerce et qui ont besoin de travailler, 
nous rendons service tant 4 ces personnes 
qu’au public. L’agent a soin de voir que ces 
amphiets ne sont pas jetés ou détruits, car 
il est intéressé & ce que le public sache ce 
dont il s’occupe, et il cherche aussi A faire 
son bénéfice en creéant une demande pour 
ees m¢decines parmi les personnes qui en 
ont besoin. Partout ou nous avons un agent, 
nous prions les acheteurs de se procurer notre 
. weméde cher lui,, ainsi on évitera les risques 
d'un envot d'argent par la poste.

De-nos jours ¢’est devenu une habitude de 
répandre des brochures médicales qui con- 
tiennent des rapports merveilleux et des 
certificats témoignant ce qu’ont fait les 
médecines pour A? B. ou 0. Je ne me pro-, 
pose pas de remplir ce pamphlet de certificats 
semblables mais je préfere presser, solliciter 
tout le monde é@essayer une bouteille, et si, lon 
pense n’en avoir regu aucun avantage, l agent 
en remboursera le cont, a mes frais, 

La somme que je suis appelé & rembourser 
est une mistre, car toujours les personnes 

ui achétent ma médecine en ont été satis- 
aites, et la plupart du temps, celles qui en 
ont pris une bouteille & titre d’essai, au lieu 
d’en réclamer le remboursement, en sont 
tellement enchantées, qu’elles en continuent 
Pusage et le recommandent méme a leurs 
amis souffrants, 

Tous ceux qui sont au courant des affaires 
doivent s’apercevoir d’une chose, ¢’est qu’en 
choisissant ce moyen extraordinaire d’intro- 
duire ce reméde, nous avons une confiance 
illimitée en ses qualités salutaires, car no« 
affaires ne pourraient continuer longtemps 
sur ce systéme, si nous n’y trouvions pas un 
immense succés. Nous prenons sur nouses 
risques bien volontiers, car nous savons ce 
que l’Indian Blood Syrup a fait; ce qu'il 
fait actuellement et ce qu’ilest appeléa faire.

your Ludian Blood Syrup of William Lewis, 
your agent for Greigsville, N. Y., some time 
ago. Since I have taken that small amount 
i am in perfect ease, and have no pain in the 
region of the kidneys. Iam so contident of 
its virtue, that 1 feel justified in recom- 
mending it to all that may be afflicted with 


the same complaint. Yours truly,

A Few Words From An Agent. 


Dr. Clark Johnson: 


Deak Sik: With the full permission of 
the parents, I give you three remarkable 
cures that were effected by your medicine, 
the Indian Blood Syrup, under my own ob- 
servation; and being your agent, I was au- 
thorized to give ieee medicine a warrant. 

Mr. Roberts, of Adim’s Mills, Ohio, had 
three children that werescrofulousfrom their 
birth, and were then from four to ten years 
old. He had spent a great deal of money, 
but to no effect; the eldest was very full of 
large sores. He used the blood Syrup us di- 
rected, and they, all three, were entirely 
smooth and well in three months. The 
above are facts. W.C.R. WOODRUFF.

I have found the right medicine at last, 
after along time trying and paying doctors’ 
bills, My wife had been on the decline for 
a long time with a diseased Liver and other 
female complaints 1 had abous given it up, - 
when I met W. Messick, Jr., one, of your 
agents, aud he told me if I would try the 
Syrup it would cure my wife. I took him at 
his word, and bought a small bottle. I have 
never seen such alteration in my life from 
the one bottle. I will say this much about 
the Syrup; I think it is the best medicine 
ever introduced into this country, without 
any exception. R. W. CRATOR.

‘Certificate from

WASHINGTON, D, C., Takwet, 1874. 


Dr, Clark JOHNSON: 

Srr:+-Whilst I shrink from publicity, as 
would every noble-born woman, reared in 
“tbe Old School” of good old Virginia, yet I 
feel it to be a Christian duty to let others 
have the benefit of my experience; there- 
fore, {as your Agent,) I give you my certifi- 
cate: 

Tn Petoban 1871, I was stricken down with 
a sudden and serious illness, which shut me 
in my room for a fortnight. By Gon’s dispen- 
sation, my circumstances were very much 
reduced, so that Lused only such simple 
remedies as were within my means. Ina 
suffering conditton, L.resumed, my duties, 
not, as usual, regulary, nor with punctual- 
ity; for I'lost'a good ‘deal of time, | Six 


months afterwards, (Marech,)I became. aware 


ot the fact, that.if: Late, beef, potatoes, but- 


ter, or baker’s bread, I would’ fall upon my} 


lounges in a stiff spasm, and rema n insensi- 
ble for two or three hours together, Upon 
returning to consciousness, 41 was.s0 entirely 
prostrated that atleast ahalf hour would 
nn before I could stir even'a finger to- 

zds rising. Soon after this, dumb chills 


setin. I almost perished for want of water;, 


I didn’t dare to take more than a taste or 
two, in the course of the day, and-even this 
small quantity, would often cause such in- 
tense illness for the space of ten or fifteen 
minutes,that persons present were “alarmed 
at my appearance.” I gréw worse daily. 
yet my untiring energy (the gift of God) 
kept me up. In May 1873, I discovered that 
my feet swelled so that my shoes were often 
too painful to bear. My sufferings were 
very great. My diet was reduced almost en- 
tirely to good strong coffee, buttermilk and 
fruit. You will remember, Dr. Johnson, 
that in July, i878, my cousin, Miss B., 
(@Vtown) wrote you, without my knowl- 
edge, to ‘send some of your “Indian Blood 
Syrup,” instead. of which you sent the pa- 


pers, requesting ber “to find a good, agent.” 
She handed them to me. After great hesita- |

Warning to Agents. 


Beware of all unstamped medicines. Un- 
principled persons are flooding the country 


with spurious medicines that are not pro- 


perly stamped as required by law. Some of 
these medicines are not stamped at all, 
others are stamped with a smaller descri 
tion of stamp than required. Agents shoudd 
see that a four cent stamp be upon all medi- 
cines that sell for one dollar, and that a two 
cent stamp be upon ali medicines that sell 
for fifty cents. 

Ail agents who sell or offer for sale any ~ 
medicines not fully stamped, do so in VIOLA- 
TION OF LAW,and are lable to a heavy tine 


‘or imprisonment. 


These parties who swindle the government, 
attempt to excuse their evasion of the law 
by stating that their medicines are not 
“proprietary articles.” All such excuses are 
merely attempts to cheat the government 
and to lead their agent to believe that there 
a danger in offering such medicines for 
8 . 

It is the duty of all law-abiding citizens 
to see that medicines which are being of- 
fered for sale be properly stamped; and, if 
found unstamped_ or insufficiently stamped, 
the fact should be at once reported to the 
Assessor of the district, who will deal with 
the guilty parties according to law. If the 
Assessor neglects to perform his duty in the 
matter, it should then be reported to the 
Commissioner of Internal Revenue, Wash- 
ington, D. C., who will at once take steps to 
compel the district. Assessor to do his duty.

Imitators. 


Nothihg can be really good unless it be-
