CHARGE: 502(a)-when shipped and while held for sale, the label contained 
false and misleading representations that the article was adequate and effec- 
tive as a preventive of and treatment for rundown conditions; and for use in 
convalescence from colds, flu, and similar illness; and the name of the article 
"Coldene Vitamin Tonic with Iron" and the label statement "therapeutic 
tonic" were misleading since the article was not adequate and effective as a 
"Vitamin tonic" and it contained the vitamin B grouping and methionine, not 
vitamins in general.
The libel alleged also that the article was misbranded under the provisions 
of the Act relating to foods, as reported in notices of judgment on foods.
