Is BEER YEAST WHoLEsoME7-Analyz
tion of the poison of the cobra de capello, the
most deadly of serpents, establishes the singu-
lar and somewha! startling fact that its compo-
sition is precisely the same as that of beer
yeast. Therefore if beer yeast were injected
under the skin, death would result as certainly
as from the bite of the terrible cobra. On the
other hand if the poison of the cobra were us.

times used to raise bread-it would undoubt-

think for moment about employing the venom
of the snake to make light bread for his din

an act would endanger his life. But why not

of the still? One is as harmless, and as harm
full as the other. Either injected into the blood
is certain death, while either, taken into the
