Drug Store Latin.

Tn one of the southern prohibition states a physician had occasion to order some whisky for a patient. It so happened that the whisky reached the express office on Sunday morning. The doctor sent for the package, and the express agent returned the reply that the whisky could not be delivered on Sunday. Thereupon the doctor sent word that the whisky was for a very, stek patient and must be had at once. The agent sent a reply that if the doctor would write a prescription for the whisky he could get It. The doctor wrote upon his prescription blank * ‘Sic semper tyrannls,” and the whisky was promptly delivered.—Medical Journal.
