country in synthetic drugs and patent¬ ed aniline dyestuffs on account of the war and opportunities for profitable investment by American capital in American laboratories to compete with those in Germany are discussed in aa editorial of tbe American Druggist for September. Tbe available supply of German coaltar chemicals, it says, is abundant enough to last for six months without further production, but if the war persists longer tban that Ameri¬ can manufacturers will either have to return to the use of chemicals em¬ ployed before the advent of coal tar products or establish laboratories of their own.
"The German factories," it contin¬ ues, "which supply most of our mod¬ ern synthetic drugs, have no doubt been shut up tor lack of workmen or have been commandeered by the (Gov¬ ernment for the manufacture of mili¬ tary medical supplies.
"We have the benzol and aniline from which to manufacture the syn¬ thetic drugs and patented aniline dye- stuffs, and It might be possible to ar¬ range with the German patentees to manufacture these products here on a royalty basis. Since, however, this Industry can be pursued economically only on a large scale and since the duration of the war Is a matter of uncertainty, the Inducement to Amer¬ ican capitalists Is not great. The prospect for supplies of these chemi¬ cals, therefore, after the^, reserve stock are gone Is very gloomy."
In the department stores and drug stores yesterday It was aaid there had been no general advance to retail buy¬ ers. One large drug company manu¬ factures much ot Its perfumery from the raw materials, and it policy was said to be to let the present prices stand until it was forced to pay high¬ er prices for new bases for the per¬ fumery. For some of 'these the cost already has been Increased. Some of the larger department stores which have their own perfumery laborator¬ ies took similar views, but it was the consensus that everybody who uses perfumes, scented soaps and talcum powders as wil as various toilet sup plies soon will have to pay higher prices.

WAR War—and the cannon thunders—death,
Envelop<^ in the smoke of war. With a mighty current drifting.
Fatally to the otb^r shore. Will peace be the harrest we reap?
And the scene is changing dallj^. But the result appears the same;
As peal on peal the cannons roar. We feel that pence Is but name.
Will peace be the harvest we reap?
Aud Ihe tempest is gaining strength, Wilh deadly impetuous speed.
As battle driven —front to front, Man is mowed like a weed.
Will peace be the harvest we reap?
And friends and foe—rider and horse.
Peel all the fury of the charge, And death holds sway from morn 'till eve;
The demon of war is at large. Will peace be the harvest we reap?
