knows his business.

It is not necessary to go into details regarding his methods. The
following summary of his business was made by the district attorney who
investigated it:

I find that the business is being conducted through the post
office at ----, Mo., under the names of Dr. ---- Remedy Company
and Dr. J. M. B----, and is a scheme and device for obtaining
money through the mails by means of false and fraudulent
pretenses, representations and promises, and I therefore

A certain "pure" malt whiskey is advertised as:

"A reliable all-round household remedy."

"It should be in every family medicine chest."

"It is manufactured for the purpose of supplying the profession and
