He came into her room and got her out of bed and took her with him to the kitchen. When they were talking he suddenly struck her between the eyes with a full bottle of beer. The witness denied that she was on Legault‘s knee at the time of the assault. She admitted that she had lived with him at a former time for a period of two years. Dr. S. J. Jessel said that he examined Miss Dostie. She had a deep laceration in her forehead which he closed with four stitches while she was under a general anaesthetic. She complained of pain in her side and he taped her. Legault‘s story was that he and Miss Dostie drank several bottles of beer in the early part of the evening. He went out to cash his cheque and when he came back he found her in bed. He got her up and they got a case of beer and were drinking it in the kitchen. She was sitting on his knee, he said.

Toronto, Oct. 4.â€"Commenting on inâ€" creased cost of medical and surgical supplies R. O. Hurst, dean of the Onâ€" tario Colleze of Pharmacy. said today that the cost of drugs was affected in two ways, but that shortage would not be so acute as during the last war. "In wartime prices of crude drnugs imported from China, Italy, Spain and other countries increase because peoâ€" ple employed in collecting or harvestâ€" ing them are assigned to other, higherâ€" paying employment. While in fine chemicals imported from England and continental countries the difficulty of obtaining shipment is added to the exâ€" cessive demands in the country of origin," he said. "In the meantime," he said, "Canâ€" "In the meartime," he said, "Canâ€" ada and the United States are very much less dependent on imported chemicals, especially dyes and other common chemicals, including phencl, for which there was such insistent demand durinz the last war. During the years 1914â€"18 North American pharmaceutical and chemical manuâ€" facturers expanded their field of proâ€" duction to include most of the essentâ€" ials of wartime economy so that we are now in a position to export many substances which we had to import in 1914."
