Missionary Board Centenary and Drug Habit

THE centenary of the founding of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions was recently celebrated in Boston and Bradford, Mass. At the latter place a thirteen-ton monument of rough stone, bearing a bronze tablet, was unveiled.
DR. LYMAN F. KEPLER, chief druggist in the Bureau of Chemists of the Department of Agriculture, in a lecture before the National Wholesale Druggists’ Association at Dallas, Tex., last week, declared that 4,000,000 Americans are victims of the drug habit, and that through the use of certain patent medicines the number is rapidly increasing.
