RUBBER ADuLTERATIoNs.

Hurtful and Poisonous Substances EN-
pIoyed by Rubber Goods Manufact.
urers.
Rubber is at present largely adulter-
ated so as to make it cheaper. The
overshoes and boots made of this
material are adulterated with finely
ground burned potter's clay. of which
it can stand as much as IS per cent.
without losing its fitness for the pur-
pose. The adulteration is harmless,
only the material is not so strong, and
the shoes or boots, instead of
lasting several seasons, as the
old fashioned little non adulterated
material, scarcely last one season.
as they tear very easily and holes
very soon wear in them. While
the pure rubber is stronger than the
best leather, the adulterated rubber is
less strong than the worst leather.
Rubber hose and sheet rubber are usually
adulterated with soapstone. This gives
a lighter color to the material, while the
burnt-clay adulteration leaves it dark
colored which is preferred for shoes.
But some authorizations are hurtful, be-
ing poisonous in their nature. Such is
the adulteration with zinc-white, which
makes the rubber very light-colored,
and is used in the rubber for nursing-
bottles and children's toys. The effects
of zinc poisoning on the system are
scarcely less alarming than lead poison
i1g. Some time ago, says the Manu-
fiacturer and Builder, a little child in
Pennsylvania died from chewing a
paper collar, which. like many paper
collars. was prepared with zinc-white;
and cases are now on record where
children have become sick from keep
ing rubber toys in their mouths. So
many cases of zinc poisoning from the
white nipples of nursing bottles have
already occurred, that the use of zinc
in them has been mostly abandoned.
These rubber nipples, or dolls, when
laid in vinegar, become covered with an
incrustation of zinc acetate. In one
case, in 0.73 gram of doll o. 40 gram of
zinc oxide was found lover so per cent. J
In subjecting such rubber objects to a
red heat, 90 per cent. of ashes remained,
while the ashes were yellow while hot
and became white on cooling, which is
the characteristic behavior of zinc oxide,
called zinc-white. In another case, in
doll warranted harmless, SO per cent.
of ashes was obtained, mostly all zinc
oxide. Several chemical journals are
now calling attention to these facts, and
it is to be hoped that it will effect an
amelioration in the consciences of the
manufacturers. Boston Journal Of
Commerce.
1t is said that the first restrictive
liquor law ever passed in this country
was enacted in a little town in Rhode
Island and read as follows: every
saloon keeper who sells more than one
gallon of liquor to minor shall be
fined one dollar and costs" The first
temperance pledge remembered in cir
culation in New England was thus
worded: Il solemnly swear to abstain
from the use of intoxicating liquors on
, all occasions except on training DAYS,
wedding days, banquets. and other great
occasions. IN Y. San.
