of children everywhere Theodore Roosevelt s Presidency marks the beginning of the Teddy Bear In the year 1902 toy bears were named Teddy after the president s nickname The Teddy Bear became known worldwide and is still known and loved today It was only a few years later that the Teddy Bears were mass produced In 1913 an item called the Erector Set was invented It was a steel motorized toy that children could use to build models of anything Its creator was A C Gilbert a medical doctor Charles Pajeau created a similar wooden set called Tinker Toys in the year 1914 Tinker Toys were made for younger children Raggedy Ann dolls first came on the scene after newspaper cartoonist Johnny Gruelle reproduced the doll he made for his daughter That was in 1915 The following year an architect s son

new looks to those who buy the medicine or the device The promoters of products say they can shape the legs slim the face smooth wrinkles or in some other way to add to beauty or desirability Often such products are nothing more than money making things for their promoters The results they produce are questionable and some are dangerous to health To understand how these products can be legally promoted to the public it is necessary to understand something of the laws covering their regulation If the product is a drug FDA Food and Drug Administration can require proof under the Food Drug and Cosmetic Act that is safe and effective before it is put on the market But if the product is a device FDA has no authority to require premarketing proof of safety or effectiveness If a product already on the market is a danger to health FDA can request the producer or distributor to remove it from the market voluntarily or it can take legal action including seizure 查封 of the product One notable case a few years ago involved an electrical device called the Relaxacisor which had been sold for reducing the waistline The Relaxacisor produced electrical shocks to the body through contact pads FDA took legal action against the distributor to stop the sale of the device on the grounds that it was dangerous to health and life Obviously most of the devices on the market have never been the subject

to make the explanation as simple as possible suppose science is defined as classified knowledge or facts Even in the true science distinguishing fact from fiction is not always easy For this reason great care should be taken to distinguish between beliefs and truths There is no danger as long as a clear difference is made between temporary and proved explanations For example hypotheses 假设 and theories are attempts to explain natural phenomena From these positions the scientist continues to experiment and observe until they are proved or discredited The exact status of any explanation
