The convalesence was greatly advanced by VALENTINE'S MEAT-JUICE. Loss of appetite and gastric troubles disappeared, and from day to day she gained in strength."

May we find the surgical fraternity, who have rendered such brilliant services to mankind during the past quarter century, still proving their title to leadership in the profession by applying their energies to the problems presented by the Living Man. The National Antinarcotic Bill is Finally Passed. The National Antinarcotic Bill finally passed the House of Representativs at Washington, D. C., on December 10th. It had been previously passed by the Senate, and received the signature of the President on December 21st. This is the compromise measure at length agreed upon by the conference committee. The President was certain to sign it, as he had favored such a law thruout his administration. With this issue of THE WORLD the beginning of the fight for proper regulation of narcotic distribution is won. Our readers will undoubtedly recall the many editorials we have printed favoring a proper control of narcotic distribution. Nothing could be done to control it that did not affect the medical profession in some way. The end we aimed at was to secure the enactment of a law that, while properly regulating this matter, would not interfere with the proper practise of medicin, particularly by the family doctor. The national antinarcotic bill as finally passed is essentially a compromise measure, many interests opposed to the medical profession's aims and interests endeavoring to tie the hands of all physicians by preventing dispensing of these remedies. However, we feel that the profession can get along very well under this bill, and we hope it will put a stop to the illegal sale and improper use of narcotic drugs. We print below a copy of the bill as passed by Congress. Next month we will present our readers with pertinent comments on the bill as affecting physicians. The law will go into effect March 1, 1915.
