FAVOUR TISM

"As safe and wholesome asgood Scotch Whisky" is a simile often heard. The wisdom of this apt saying is fully realised when the whisky is "Highland Nectar". The rich maltflavour and mellow maturity fully justify its choice.

EXPERIMENT ON A CAT.

PROTEST BY ANTI- VIVISECTIONISTS,

"A remarkable operation on a cat was described at the Pharmaceu tical Conference at Cardiff last month.

Dr. Lyttelton's `Views." Dr. Edward Lyttelton, who, with Mr. J. L. Hodson, condpeted a symposium on birth control in this journal, under the title of "The World of the Unborn," set out his views on the Lambeth Conference report as follows:-

"It is to be boped that the public will stady the actual words of the paragraph issued from Lam- beth on this question.

"The Bishops have refrained from uttering a stark prohibition against contraception in imaginable case: neither do they attempt to indicate where the line should be drawn. But they are un animous in believing that nothing short of necessity can justify the practice.

There are many who hold that the cases of necessity are so few as to be practically negligible...

"So the Bishops have reminded us that ultimately it is a matter of conscience. That is not the same thing as a matter of self-indulgence or prudence. That is the meaning of the method must be decided on Christian principles,'

"I should have preferred the phrase approved by the Norwich Diocesan Congresa, to the effect that those who use artificial means for the prevention of birth, are left to the Judgment of God. The two clauses, however, mean the same thing."

A FREE CHURCH CRITIC.

The operation has reused animal lovers in Cardiff to strongly protest, but women pharmacists at the con ference: take the view that such operations are necessary. **As. scientists we cannot object to opérations of this, kind being car- ried out," said Mrs. Freke, a mem. ber of the Pharmaceutical Society, to a reporter. They are essential if we are to learn anything about the action of drugs."

SINGULAR POSITION OF POLICE.

JUDGE ON EFFECTS OF SAVIDGE CASE.

An action for damages against for. two Birmingham detectives Falleged falso imprisonment and Passault, was concluded at Birming- ham Assizes. recently. They were Sergeant Frederick Harris and Constable George, Lintern, and the plaintiffs were John Pagett (82), a retired licensed victualler, of Small, Heath, and his nephew George Ernest Pagett, painter and decora-' tor, of Ridley.

The jury found for the plaintiffs, awarding £50 damages on the isade of false imprisonment and one farthing each for assault. Mr. Justice McCardie reserved his de- cision as to costs for what he de- scribed as "contemptuous" damages on the assault issue.

In evidence, the defendants denied assaulting the plaintiffs, and declared that the plaintiffs went to the police station of their own free will.

Mr. Justice McCardic, summing up, said the police of this country had to fulfil most delicate, most responsible, and most important duties. The security of the public depended upon the efficiency and vigour with which the people per- formed their duties. That was a vital consideration in considering the case, but there was the perhaps consideration

This view was echoed by other equally important women pharmacists, but Miss Rose that the police possessed great Beaven, secretary to the local powers as well as great respon- branch of the Anti-vivisection So-sibilities, and ought not to exercise city, told a reporter that the So- the powers of arrest without ade fore see that on the broad cor- ciety would raise strong protests quate cause: The jury would there- against the kind of operation which was described in the lecture.

Mr. Hendey added that the use of this earth as a face powder had met with opposition and anta gonist in many quarters, but so far its use had been accompanied by success. The earth had the ad- vantage over the usual forms of starch or rice powder, which was the basis of all good face powders, that when it was applied to the skin it did not swell when in con- tact with the natural moisture of the skin.

Referring to the birth control pronouncement, Dr. Carlile asked if it was necessary for the Bishops to make a pronouncement upon the very questionable and limited prac tice of birth control. If so, by was the resolution framed so am biguously that it could be under stood in contradictory senses & cording to individual discretion?

A ROMAN CATHOLIC PROTEST.

A strong protest against the Lambeth Conference resolution on i birth control and contraception was made by Father Woodlock, S.J., preaching at Farm Street, Church, London. Father Woodlock said that the doctrine of the Catholic Church was clearly expounded in 's pastoral letter by the Roman Catho
