ing the Danube. Having convinced themselves
that the enterprise is fraught with sacrifices,
and that the result is doubtful, it is certain

emit. 1t is significant that corn contracts have

1t is the current impression that the Russians
are spinning out the time relying upon the
chances of achieving great success in Asia
Some people go SO far as to say they manifest
a wish TO remain content with the fall of Kars.
They would then desire to keep what they had

cial resources are not equal to the achievement,
of the, enterprise into which Russia has

in which he shows the beneficial results
of medicated ice where the patient has q

Of nervous irritability or Of inflammation

luton can be frozen without either sepa
rating the ingredients or affecting their
tonic or astringent properties, while the
ice itself is almost tasteless. The ice is
prepared in this way: The solution of
the desired strength is placed in a thin

a tightly fitting rubber cork reaching the
surface of the liquid. The tube is then
placed in a vessel containing mixture OF
chopped ice and salt, and revolved there
for twenty minutes, when the indicated
solution will be turned into solid mass,
which can be easily removed from the
glass tube by the application of warm
cloth to the outside of the glass. Ice
thus made has been found Of great value
