Ayer 1 company had decided to gire to the public the complete formula of each of its medicines, tre ixtterrkiired the treasurer and general raaaager, Dr. Charles Stowell, in order to ascertain if this was true.

Dr. said that it certainly was true, and that it iras simply the conclusion of a plan which he had beea working npoa for a long time. Whe-n asked effect it would hare upoa the proprietary medicine business if all houses were obliged to publish their formulas, he said, in his opinion, it would favorably affect the sale of all those medicines founded upoa merit, all those preparations that were genuine medicines. On the other hand, he lie-red jost as strongly that it would meaa the complete ruin of frauds, fakes, and swindles. "It is a well-known fact that the pablic is being swindled out of hundreds of thousands, even, millions of dollars each year, because ox wildly exaggerated and positively untruthful statements, glaringly displayed by the most lavish outlay of money.

The J. C. Ayer company has nothing to hide. We know our medicines are good. We simply take tho public into our derice and frankly tell them just what they are getting for their money.

That is all there is about it." Concerning the great agitation which ny- been raised in certain quarters because some of these medicines contain alcohol, Dr. Stowell said: "-Just use a little common sense aad figure it out for yourself. formula which will soon- appear on each Lottie oZ Aytr'a Sarsaparilla -will show that the TMOKW gets about ten laftrinrs of alcohol ia of the wkichs is the ordinary dosa. ia a glaea of beer (-which is the ordinary dose) are about two hundred miaims ot hoL la other -words, ene dose of coatains twenty times as mach alcohol zs one dose of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Btst let us carry this analysis a little further: You would have to drink about half a bottle of Ayer's Sarsaparilla to jrat as much alcohol as is found in an ordinary schooner 1 of beer.

The Sarssparilla would cost the maa nearly half a dollar, while the beer would, cose him oaJy cents. "We have yet to hear of any person who erer acquired a la-re for taste of Ajer's Sarsaparilla. Thb fact is, it is a mediciae, a positiye medicine, and the taste of a medicine. But we are told tbat a taste for beer is soon acquired. In view of this, can you imagine anything more perfectly ridiculous than all of this terrible cry about the alcohol in this medicine? And then rre knotr rery -well that alcohol is used, muss fee used, to extract Tzrious medicinal ingredientg from the roots, barks, which form an important part of this medicina.

It Is not added simply because of any stlmuliiiEg effect It may have of itself." We are informed that this Is the first time in the history of the proprietary medicine business that the formulas been thus boldly given to the public, and the outcome be iratched intense interest.
