IL regard to coffee New York paper
says; The market for Rio coffee has been
very dull and trifle tame throughout,
The advices from Rio Janeiro are strong,
and holders generally appear Indifferent
about showing samples, but buyers are in
no way disturbed or excited, and few bids
have been made. Pric IS are quoted as be.
FORE and may be called nominally steady,
but 1t is difficult to determine on positive
operating basis at the moment.
Millions OF pounds of glucose are made
every month. 1t is used mostly as an adul-
terant in the manufacture of table syrups,
and in adulterating the dark, moist sugars
used largely by the poor. Its next largest
use is in the manufacture of candies. All
soft candies, wakes, tatlies, caramels choco-
lates, etc., are made of glucose. Children
are therefore large consumers of this sub
stance. The honey-bees also are fond Of it,,
and will carry it away by the ton if it is
placed within their reach.
The honey made from it is no better than
the pure glucose, as it is slowed away in
the cells without change. Human in
genuity, it is stated, has reached the point
OF making honey and storing it in the comb
without the intervention of the bee. BY
appropriate machinery nice-looking comb
Is made out OF parailine, and after the cells
are filled with glucose syrup this fictitious
honey" is warranted true "white-clover
honey from Vermont"
