No. 8920-F.)
Examination showed that this product consisted essentially of ammonium 
hydrogen sulfide (4.96 grams per 100 cc.) and water.
On October 1,1942, the United States attorney for the Western District of Texas 
filed a libel against 3 bottles of the above-named product at San Antonio, Tex., 
alleging that the article, which had been consigned by Pierrette, had been intro- 
duced into interstate commerce at Los Angeles, Calif., on or about July 7, 1942; 
and charging that it was adulterated in that it contained a poisonous or deleteri- 
ous substance, ammonium hydrogen sulfide, which might have rendered it in- 
jurious to users under the conditions of use that are customary or usual.
On February 13, 1943, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
