Harry Sels, the Chicago shoe manufacturer, in the current Sample Case. We need a far-reaching law making it a misdemeanor, punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both for any manufacturer to misrepresent in any way the good she makes. Why, indeed, should we be specific, and limit this demand for honesty in manufacture to any one line or lines? Surely if honesty ia right in the manufacture of foods and drugs, it is right for clothes and shoes in all merchandise. We ought, then, to put the words ''all merchandise" instead of "food and drugs" in the law We ought to extend the principles of and protection for common honesty in all forms of trade.

We could not guarantee poor shots." This sort a plain statement of fact about the goods he makes ought to be demanded of every manufacturer, large or small, js We nettl uch a law in all business; it would put an end to fraud iu trade, and would prove as great a blessing, on a much wider scale, to the manufacturer, the retailer and the consumer as the pure food law has Wen. .26.40 see how the fire was doing when the gas puffed out in his face and burned his tace and set Inn clothes Jonesburg Silver City. 26.40 .25.00 on fire.
