FRAUDS IN .FooD Very few people have

FRAUDS IN FooD Very few people have
auy idea of the enormous extent to which
every article of food they subsist on is adulter-
at-d; aud even few physicians, we imagine
can fell in what degree this practice is respon.
sible for The weekly mortality bills. A few
years ago the, subject OF bad milk was pretty
thoroughly discussed and ythe fact demoostrat-
ed that good deal OF aduterated and diseased
milk was sent to this and other markets Ii
is owsdeclared that very much OF tue nour 10
market is from damaged grain, and that II is
very frequently aduIterated with some polson,
which will hide its poor qualities A medical
journal informs. us that the .gooseberry and
cnrrant are often innocent of the jam which
hears ther;name substitutes being occasional
" found for them 10 the juice OF the beet root
reduced TO solid state Of gelatine, and render
ed savory by the adjunction Of various acids.
This fraud may. be detected by burning the
lam, in which case the gelatine it contains will
emit smell of singed hair. Tea is soften color
ed with Brazil wood, or even verdlgris Inc
latter is recognizable by liquid ammonia, which
in the course of few hours will assume e.blue
tint if the adultcrated leaves be lett TO digest
10 it for that time. Brazil wood Is more din,
cult of detection. The leaves should be Wetted
with pure water, and then rubbed on paper,
which will thus be blackencd. The black spot
will turn red under the Influence of a drop of
sulphuric acid. Pepper is adulterated with
the seeds of rhammus intectorus, potato ecula
and tumerc, all which Ingredients are easily
recognized by means Of pure water. The ne
cessity of pure food, if we would have pure
blood and strong frames, is so apparent that
the evil becomes one of great magnitude. A
Government commission Of equity, to invesi
gate the subject, might DC some good; but the
crime against morality and health can never
be wholly eradicated, we fear. -Phila. Star.
