Hughes is the Doctor. The other day when Hon. William Mulock advocated a bill to prohibit J quack medicine people from using the mails for sending out fraudulent . testimonials, Col. Hughes took part in the debate and opposed the bill. “Let the people read and buy what they like,” said Col. Hughes. “Half of these fellows who advertise put out medicines that may do some good. If the people want to use them let them do so. There’s a lit- tle cayenne pepper in the linime‘nt or a little ipecac in the medicines; and if they do like old wives’ remedies, no good they will do no harm.” It was impossible, he said to make legislaâ€" people wise or cautious by tion.
