SALT IN SICKNEss.-Dr. Scudder remarks
81 am satisfied that | have seen patients die
from deprivation of common salt during a
protraCted illness. 1t Is a common impres
sion that the food for the sick should not be
seasoned, and whatever slop may be given, il
is almost innocent of this essential of life. In
the milk diet that recommend in sickness
common salt is used freely, the milk being
boiled and given hot. And ifthe patient can.
not take the usual quantity in his food, |
have ii given in his drink.
This matter is so important that 1t canno,
be repeated too often, or dwelt upon too
long.
The most marked example of this want OF
common salt | have ever noticed has been in
surgical disease, especially in open wounds.
Without a supply of salt the tongue would
become broad, pallid, puffy, with tenacious
pasty coat, the secrctions arrested, the circu-
latiOn feeble the effusion at the point of injury
serious, with an unpleasant watery pus,
which at last becomes a mere sanies or ichor.
few days of free allowance would change
ali this, and the patient get along we'll"

The manufacture of sugar from facula, o.
starch, is carried TO great extent IN France
and the process appears to be better under
stood there than in any other country. INT
mode of proceeding is to have large Leader
boilers, in which is one ton of water, heatet
to boiling point, and to this twenty-five lbs
of sulphuric acid, at sixty degrees, dliuteC
with twice its weight Of water, is added INT
vessei is provided with a wooden cover coat
ed with copper, which has small opening
to allow the liquor TO be stirred with WOOD
en- rod. After the liquor begins 10 BOIL eigh
hundred pounds of starch flour is gradually
slf(ed into it, much care being taken to pre-
vent the formation of Jumps and to have tn
boiling uniform.
In some factories the starch is first miXeC
with water, and placed IN Il vessel above TIT
water, and made to flow into the boiling acit
in uniform stream by Il tube. The boiling
is continued about fifteen minutes after TIT
starch is put in, and then the fire is so regu
lated that the liquor ceases to boil, ate
which twenty-five pounds of chalk is added
to neutralze the free acid-this, however
being put in very slowly, on account OF thu
violent evolution of the carbonic acid set fret
by the new combination, which produces
sulphate of lime. The liquor is then strained
through coarsely pulverized bones spread on
straining-clothes; and this filtered liquor Is
now gradually brought into fiat pans and
cvaporated till 1t is reduced to half its volume
when it is q second time boiled, with charcoal
and bullock's blood, and then refined and fill
tered.
One hundred parts of starch yield about
one hundred parts of sugar, which is obtain
ed by concentrating the syrup and putting ii
into casks, where it Is left to cool, the crystal
lied sugar beng found in the casks in two
days
