ART. 12.] GARRETT COUNTY. 831
SEC. 18. And be it further enacted, That it shall be unlawful
for any doctor or physician to issue a prescription for intoxi-
cating liquors, except in writing, or in any case unless the per-
son for whom it is issued is actually sick, or such liquor is re-
quired as a medicine. Every prescription for intoxicating
liquors shall contain the name and quantity of liquor pre-
scribed, the name of the person for whom prescribed, the date
on which the prescription is written and directions for use of
the liquor so prescribed, and it shall be unlawful for any doctor
or physician who has been convicted of issuing verbal prescrip-
tions for intoxicating liquors or of issuing prescriptions for in-
toxicating liquor, knowing the same to be for use as a bever-
age, or of issuing prescriptions that do not in form comply
with this Act, thereafter to issue any prescription for intoxi-
cating liquor for any purpose for a period of two years from the
date of such conviction. Every prescription issued in violation
of the provisions hereof shall be held to be an unlawful selling,
and on conviction therefor the person issuing same shall be
punished accordingly.

medical or sacramental purposes only, or of alcohol for medici-
nal, chemical or mechanical purposes only; not to be drunk
upon the premises under any circumstances; provided, the fol-
lowing requirements are fully complied with and such druggist
or pharmacist in good faith shall keep a true and exact record
