poignant that Permanent Imposition will
doubtless be established. The enterprise has
been pecuniary success, and the dividends on
the stock will be large, thanks to the labors
and energy of its projectors.

WATERED LARD AND ITS DETECTION
To protect dealers from the large guam.
tity Of adultcrated lard upon the market,
the New York Grocer furnishes this test:
Take clear glass bottle, ill 1t with the
lard to be tested (eaving ont the cork;
place this bottle about six inches from
the stove or fire, and let the lard slowly
melt, being very careful not to get il up
to the boiling point, aS the water would
then evaporate; most Of the water will
slowly fall 10 the bottom Of the bottle,
and the lard now melted will rise 10 the
top. BY glancing at tho amount Of water
now deposited ut the bottom Of the bottle,
as compared with the amount Of oil Tor
lard) above II, you can easily tell about
how much water there Is in the lraudu.
lent article. Should the lard not settle
clear, nor precipitate much water, II is
an evidence that II Is also adulterated
with alkali, which serves to combine a
part Of the water with the lard, making
soap Of 1t, which does not precipitate
readily with the water,
