Perfumes and Personalities Of Mouzdi-
ness.-An interesting paper on this subject
has been published by DR.. Macculloch. We
presume our readers are aw are that mouldi-
ness is oceasioned by the growth of minute
vegetables. Ink, paste, leather, and seeds
are the substance that most frequently
suffer from it.
The effect of cloves in preserving ink is
well known; any of the essential oils answer
equally well Leather may be kept free
from mould by the same substance. The
Russian leather, which is perfumed with the
tar of birch, never becomes mouldy; in
deed, it prevents its mourning in other
bodies, few drops of an essential oil are
sufficient also to keep books entirely free
from it. For harness, oil Of turpentine is
recommended Book-binders in general,
employ alum for preserving their paste; but
mould frequently forms on it.
Sboemakers rosin is sometimes also used
for the same purpose, but it is less eaectual
than oil of turpentine. The best preventa-
tive, however, are the essential oils, even in
small quantity. as those Of peppermint,
anise, or cassia, by which paste may be
kept almost any length Of time; indeed, it
has, in this way, been kept for years.
The paste recommended by Dr. Macculloch,
is made in the usual way, with flour, some
brown sugar and little corrosive sublimate;
the sugar keeping it flexible when dry, and
the sublimate preventing it from fermenting,
and from being attacked by insects after it
is made, few drops of any of the essential
OILS are added Paste made in this way
dries when exposed to the air, and may be
used merely by wetting it
If required to be kept always ready for
use, it ought to be put into covered pots.
Seeds may also be preserved by the essen
tial oils; and this is f great consequence,
when they are to be ant to Distance of
course moisture must be excluded as much
as possible, as the oils or ottos prevent only
the bad effects of mould Scientific 4mcri
