trict Court of the United States for said district an information against S.?
Fisher & Co., a corporation, Hoboken, N. J., alleging shipment by said com??
pany, in violation of the Food and Drugs Act, on December 31, 1910, from the?
State of New Jersey into the State of Massachusetts, of a quantity of con??
fectionery which was adulterated. The article was labeled: " 200 Soft Boiled?
Eggs, S. F. & Co.   Trade Mark Serial No. 2380."
Analysis of a sample of the article by the Bureau of Chemistry of this depart??
ment showed that it was coated with talc.
Adulteration of the article was alleged in the information for the reason?
that it contained talc.
On August 8, 1916, the defendant company entered a plea of guilty to the?
information, and the court imposed a fine of $25.
