The Summer Solstice.

On the 21st of June, at s o'clock in
the morning, according to The Scten-
tjfc american, the sun enters the sign
Cancer and inaugurates the great ply
steal epoch know n as the summer SOL
stice. He has reached his extreme
northern deelination of twenty three
and a half degrees, and just grazing
the tropic of Cancer, pauses for a few
days in his course before turning his
steps from our northern cline. 1t
would seem as II our hottest days
should occur about the 2lst of June,
when the SUMS perpendicular rays fall
upon this portion OF the globe. But
such Is not the case. AS midsummer
approaches the quantity OF heat re-
eeived from the sun during the day is
greater than the quantity of heat lost
during the night, and there is there
fore an increase of heat each day. The
daily increase reaches its maximum at
the summer solstice. But the heat gar
nered up by the process causes an &C
cession ofheat each day until the heat
lest during the night is just equal to
that received during the day. This

What Is Glucose ?

Glucose Is the sugar Of the future.
| Oppose 1t as you will, it is daily i'm
creasing in importance and in the
number OF its uses. In climates where
the sugar-cane will not grow and in
i countries where the sugar-beet cannot
be cultivated with profit. there is a
wild field for glucose. Wherever corn
grain, or potatoes thrive, there glucose
factories will flourish. Glucose differs
as much from cane sugar as tallow from
lard. or butter from o~lemargarine.
Both kinds of sugar are sweet, al
though in a very different degree, and
for man purposes one can be suosti-
tuted for the other without the consul
mer being aware of the fact.
The manufacturers limit the term
GLUCOSE" to the thick syfup which
neither solidiies nor e~rystallizes on
long standing. The same substance in
a solid state is called "grape sugar."
but there is no chemical difference be-
tween the twoS The name grape
sugar'' owes its origin to the fact that
a kind of sugar found in grapes and
other sweet fruits has the same chemi
cal composition as that made from
starch by methods that we shall pres
emily describe. This real grape sugar
is often seen as au incruststion on raj.
sins and figs. Honey also contains
grape sugar, and it was there it was
first discovered by Lowitz in 1902,
Glucose can be made from any of
the carbohydrates, starch, dextrine,
eellulose, etc., but is generally pre-
pared from starch. In this coun ry
cornstarch is used, while abroad pc
tato starch is preferred because it is
cheaper.
The uses of glucose are very numer-
Gus, although it is seldom sold to the
public under its real name but under
the ideas Of golden honey !" and
even as Vermont maple syrup, its sale
is very extensive. 1t is largely en-
ployed by eonfectioners for making
candies, by wine dealers for strength
ening wine, by brewers to add body to
their beer. Most of the sugars and
table syrups contain glucose. OF sew
enteen samples tested by the Michi-
gan Board of Health, fifteen con
tanned glucose. OF twenty samples
anall zed in Chicago, only one was
unadulterated. OF samples obtained
from all the leading sugar dealers in
Buffalo, only one was found pure.
We do not believe that pure glucose
in an luxurious substance when prop
erly made, but to sell 1t under the
name of cane sugar, when it is but
one-third as sweet, Isl fraud and to
charge the price of cane sugar, when 1t
costs but three cents a pound to make
it, is a swindle. That 1t pays to make
it is evident from the fact that there
are more than twenty glucose factor
les in this country turning out over
one million pounds per day of grape
sugar and glucose.

Liquid Ozone.


Messrs. Chappuis Il H~sutefeuille,
by a modification of NJ. C~ailletet's e x
periments, have lately succeeded in
obtaining Czone ia the form of liquid
drops of g dark indigo blue color.
They compressed n mixturs of oxy-
gen and ozone to about 125 stmos-
pheres in NJ. Cailletet's well-known
apparatus, the tube Of which termiua-
ted In a strong capillary tube, bent
downward, the descending branch of
the latter being cooled by a jet of
liquid ethylene to a temperature prob
ably below-100oC. In this process
a distinct blue color is produced in the
cooled part of the tube (probably due
to mixed liquid-ozone and oxygen).
On releasing the pressure this color in
siantly disappears, but a drop of dark
blue liquid czone remains in the end
of the tube. This liquid could be kept
nearly thirty minutes at a pressure of
75 atmospheres. Its vaporization is
not very rapid even at atmospheric
pressure. The gas seemed colorless
above the liquid when the latter is
nearly black ; and it is only when the
last traces of liquid are disappearing
that one observes gas of an ozone blue
color. NM. Chappuls & Hautefeu-
ills also find that the amount of ozone
produced by the action Of the electric
discharge on q mixture of oxygen and
nitrogen increases to a maximum,
then decreases to a minimum, then
again increases, and so on by the
aid ofthe sp~ectroscopic method they
trace this oscillation TO the formation
aud decomposition of an oxide of nj
not hitherto observed, which
they propose to call pernitric oxide.

quently covered. Upon inspection,
the skin of an orange will be found
to be dotted over with brownish scar
let spots of various sizes. These speeks
can be easily removed by q needle
II when under a microscope, an in
teresting scene is presented, consisting
OF a large number of eggs, which are
oval white bodies, standing Oh end,
like little bags of flour, some of the in
habitants of which may very probably
be seen IN process of emerging from
tho opened end of the egg. The fe
male insect upon leaving the egg has
six legs, two long hair-like appendages
and no wines; 1t thrusts a sucker into
the orange in order to obtain nourish-
ment and never moves again, passing
through the various stag s of develop
ment until it lays its eggs and dies.
In the case of the male insect, the
chrysalis after a short period opens
and the insect flies off. The male is
supplied with wings twice the length
ofits body, and each Of the legs has a
hook-like projection. 1t has four eyes
and two %antenne, and is so tiny that
it cannot be seen when flying.

We have had several events this
week of considerable interest. Per-
haps the most important is the arriv-
al of Jumbo, a tangible trophy of the
triumph of the irrepressible Barnum
over disconsolate John Bulldom.
Thousands of old men who haven't
been inside of circus tent for fifty
years have played young and gone to
see Jumbo, and taken in the rest of
the performances. The great, docile
creature is fond of being petted and
also of whiskey, bottleful of which
poured into his trunk, is concealed
without spilling drop, and he winks
after it.
Another trunk full of whiskey turn
ed up in police headquarters the 9th
er day. 1t was found on a truck
with a mob around it, clamoring for
| the release of a man inside. Sure
enough there was man there, who
had been bundled up and deposited
in these narrow quarters by the way
of joke. He was good fellow in
his way, and when he sobered up de-
clined to give any information which
would lead to the arrest of his tor
mentors.

houses have been victimized in 9
