SENATOR" SMITH OPPOSES THE NEW PENSION LAW Washington, April 20.?In the discus sion of the pension bill in the senate, Senator E. D. Smith took occasion to express his opposition to a certain provision in it, besides his disapprolmtion of the general tenor of it as a whole. The section which ho particularly attacked provides thut any widow of u federal aoldie? who had served in the Union army during the Civil war for a period of 00 days in any capacity would receive a pension of $30 per month no matter how many times she had l>ecn married or divorced since her husband's death. The only restriction placed against the wife receiving a pension was the fact of n present living husband or a divorce for misconduct of the wife. Wenator fSmith called attention to the fact thut a widow of the Civil war cluss. bo matter how many times maritaly ivmoved from her soldier husband, would receive a pension, while the soldiers of the world war received no pension exoept their insurance, for which they had to pay. lie noted well that the pensions for the Civil war were borne by the whole country anil benefited only a section, whereas the burden and benefits of pensioning in the-ease of the world r war wonld fall on all alike. Senator Smith said the whole pensioning system was wrong because of politier. Nearly 00 years after the Civil war the pension appropriation is by far greater, lio said, than it was 20 years after und the fewer the numbers to receive pensions the greater the amount.

Aspirin is the name given to a chemical first manufactured by F&rbenbrieken of Elberfeld Company of Germany, the predecessor of The Bayer Co. This product was patented by that concern in the United States on February 27,. 1900, which patent expired February 27, ,1917; i. e., at the end of the period covered by the United State* patent. Germany does not gTant patents on any medicinal chemicals. As soon as the United States patent expired the United Drug Company of Boston, whose exclusive agents are the Rexall stores, applied to the Patent Office at Washington for a cancellation of the claim of The Bayer Company to the exclusive use of the name "aspirin," which was the name of the product covered by the patent. This cancellation was a public necessity because had The Bayer Company been granted the perpetual exclusive monopoly to use the name "aspirin" the American people would hava been obliged to buy aspirin made only by The Bayer Company because the chemical had been so constantly sold under the name "aspirin" the public knew no other name for it. The result would be that while other manufacturers have the legal right to manufacture the product under the formula given in the expired patent they could not cnil it by ita true name "aspirin," and the public wou{d not know that it was the same product as that produced under the expired aspirin patent. The Patent authorities' decision was to the effect that the United Drug Company's contention was well founded and the name "uspirin" together with the right to make and sell the product covered by this patent became the property of the people of the tJnited States upon the expiration of the patent. Also* that The Bayer Company had no more claim to the exclusive right to use the name "aspirin" than they had to claim the right to use exclusively such common chemical names as "quinine," "calomel," etc. This decision was rendered by the Patent Office on November SO, 1918. Since the expiration of the patent a number of high-class chemical houses of undisputable American origin and ownership have been making genuine aspirin; The United Drug Company supplies Aspirin-U. D. Co. in tablets and powder, its output being sold ex' clusively through the Rexall Btores. Several other reliable firms are also making reliable aspirin tablets of undoubted genuineness and purity, the equal if not superior in every way of tablets made by The Bayer Company. USE OF ASPIRIN. Aspirin is a very useful medicinal agent. It is one of the best methods of administering Salicylic Acid. Salicylic Acid is Anti-rheumatic; that is, its action is to aid in counteracting the evil influences which result in Rheumatism and Neuralgic conditions commonly considered to be allied to Rheumatism. It has a marked influence over the fever wftich is commonly associated with rheumatic conditions. Aspirin is more easily borne by the stomach than is Salicylic Acid or other Salicylic compounds. Aspirin is advised by many physicians for the relief of colds, neuralgia, headache even when not of rheumatic origin. Aspirin is valuable also as an algesic; i. e., as a pain , reliever. It is also used to reduce temperature in certain fever conditions. It is less harmful to the heart than many other drugs frequently used for the relief of neuralgic pains. For all of these reasons aspirin may be considered one of our most useful drugs, and is deservedly popular, not only among physicians, but also among .1. ?~ ?L _ ?:.u . . m uiudo wnu w 10u tu irrtii rwneuniauBm and painful affections of the Rheumatic and Neuralgic order, Headache, etc. We, as Rexall druggists, heartily recommend Aspirin-U. D. Co., both tablets and powder, knowing as we do that the company that supplies them is absolutely refiablo^ knowing also by tests that we ourselves are thoroughly capable* ot making, that Aspirin-U. D. Co. contains the full advertised dosage of | aspirin chemical. We know Aspirin-U. D. Co. tablets are the equal of any made, and we wish our customers to understand that no price, however high, can purchase tablets of higher grade than that put out under the name of , Aspirin-U. D. Co. We offer Aspirin-U. D. Co. tablets under code number CT 378 in boxes of 12, boxes of 24, bottle of 100, or in lar> ger sizes. We strongly recommend the purchase of bottle of 100 for the reason that aspirin tablets, being so tremendously useful, it would be wise for every household to constantly keep a stock on hand.
