rocks
That stand far out in like pilgrims from the land"
Here, if disposed to air botany might volunteer
technical description of the varieties of the crypt
ogamic order to which the hchens belong; but
present object being simply utaran and practical
only propose to show that the valuable of all tho
mossesthe Oarrageen or Irish Moss-has been rem
dered by process of manufacture far superior
any article of its class heretofore introduced either

whom eminent medical graduate and the wife of
the Secretary of the Institute, state in their report that
packet of Sea Moss Farine, costing twenty-five cents
will produce, when combined with milk in due proper
ton full sixteen quarts of blanc NANCE while packet
starch maizena, farna costing sixteen CENTS
will only produce, with the like quantity of milk, from
four six quarts-thus showing that the food sta
Pile is actually worth, means of nourshment, about
hundred and Tty cent than the heretofore
popular preparations from maize and grain 1t is also
stated that it has the heating properties of ordi
nary farnaceous food and is digesed and assmilated

As far can judge, the conclusions at which the
scientific world the press, and the public have arrived
with regard to Rands Sea Moss Farine founded
