LIQUID BREAD.
AN ABSOLUTELY PURE EXTRACT OF
MALT.
A VALUABLE TONIC AND REMEDIAL
AGENT,
TNDORSED AND RECOMMENDED BY THE
ENTIRE MEDICAL FRATERNITY.

OF all medicinal preparations that have been put
upon the market in recent years, the extract of
malt has proved itself one of the most valuable
tonic or remedial beverage. 1t has receiy ed
the unqualified recognition and support of ply
sicians, and is freely prescribed by them in many
cases, especially where the nervous or physical
systems have been impaired by disease over
work. The house of "DAVID NICHOLSON"
OF this city, has recently introduced q pure malt
extract of high character, made at their request
and under their suggestions by Mr.. AdOlphus
Busch and which is popularity known as .sNICH-
OLSON'S LIQUID BREAD" from its life-giving
and healih-restoring properties. sample sub
mitted TO DIR. F. l.. James was made the subject
of a chemical analysis by him. and the result of
his investigations are gwen in the appended GER
tidcate:
CIV F. COULTER, Esq, National Druggist-Dear
Sir: Having submitted the Nicholson malt ex-
tract TO examination, requested, take pleasure
in reporting that find it to be all that the pro-
prietOrs claim for it. The results, shown in the
following summary, are necessarily only approx
mate but are sufficiently accurate for all practical
purposes.
s.The specimens submitted consisted of an
effervescing fluid, dark brown by direct and of
deep ruby color by transmitted light, resembling
In general appearance and behavior a very supe-
riOr article Of porter, It's taste was, however,
much mllder and more pleasant than porter, be-
ing somewhat sweeter than beer, the sweetness
masked and covered by very pleasant bitter,
derived evidently from hops. The specific gravity
of a sample fresh +. ON the bottle Is 1922 plus.
Amount of eXtractive matter in so cubic cent?
metres of the fluid is 3.96 grammes, about per
cent. Amount of alcohol, per cent. is 2.S4 plus.
The extractive matter is apparently identical with
the "extractum maltis' of Trommer, or OF the
German PharmacOpoeia. 1t consists almost en-
trely Of malt sugar, dextrine, being free from
fatty acids, etc. The fluid contains very large
amount of dastaSe, shown by the fact that it
easily liquefies equal bulk of geatinous starch
This fact, its low percentage of alcohol, its efer
vescence, its delightful taste and odor all combine
to recommend NichOlson's malt extract as being
most nOurishing beverage, and the best article
of the sort that has ever come under my exami
nation. Respectfully,

1nfll11ns Escape FROM DtiitH.
BALTIMORE, August Ga few miles
south of Marlborough is a chasm which
is spanned by an open trestle bridge
about two hundred feet long. The depth
of the chasm is about sixty feet. The
railroad approaches this bridge around
curve, and the engineer of a train cannot
see the bridge until close upon it. About
$50 o'clock Tuesday evening, as south
bound passenger train came around the
curve, the engineer saw woman cross
ing the bridge, carrying an Infant i'll her
arms and leading by the hand child
three years old.
The engineer applied the air brakes
and blew the danger whistle, but saw he
could not stop the train in time to pre-
vent the catastrophe. The woman turn
ed and saw the train bearing down upon
her; saw below tho mad, rushing waters,
and knew that to standor jump was GER
tain death. The engineer rushed to the
front of the engine intending to try and
grasp the woman and drag her on the
cowcatcher. At this moment the woman
caught both children in one arm with
the other she seized one of the ties and
swung herself between the ties and be-
low the bridge. None too soon, howev-
er, for just at that moment the train
passed over her. Those who witnessed
it stood with bated breath and supposed
she had jumped from the bridge. As
soon as the train was stopped the train
men went back to the point where the
woman disappeared They found her
still clinging to the tie very much ex-
hausted. 1t took but a moment to res
cue her and the children, all unhurt.

Siege Guns of Wire.
London Telegraph.

LoiluOH Iele2rapn.
Siege guns built of wire are the newest
description of ordnance for the national
service. A very tough steel wire is used
having breaking strength of 100 tons
to the square inch, which is wound over
steel tube as tape may be wound on a
reel, being frequently fastened off to Sc
cure its cohesion, and SO neatly put to-
gether as to look like solid medal. An
experimental howitzer has been made
upon this principle and passed a satisfac-
tory proof at the Royal arsenal. 1t has
a calibre of ten inches, but weighs only
about 20 hundred weight. In its trial
the howitizer threw shell of $50 pounds
with a charge of % pounds. and attain
ed velocity of 1000 feet per seconds

The work of manufacturing 45O, 900
pounds of paper for internal revenue
stamps for one year, in accordance with
the contract just obtained from the gov

of Alexander Aalfour, of Philadelphia.
This is the first time that such work has
been attempted in that city.
What with improved machinery and
cheap labor, the average cost of harvest
ing grain in California, is less than it has
ever been. One farmer in the San Joa
quin Valley pays four cents sack for
harvesting his crop. Under old methods
the cost of threshing alone has been as
high as fifteen cents.
The fever epidemic at Plymouth, Pa,
has at last abated. The hospital has
been abandoned, and the nurses have
left. About 160 people have died from
the fever in Plymouth since its first out
break. The highest number sick at one
time was ninety-six. About $40, 900 has
been spent in relief measures.
The British census tells the story of
mis- government in Ireland by the figures
given of the latter country's population.
There were s, 900, 900 inhabitants in 1S45
and there are less than 5000, 900 now.
Scotland in the same time has steadily
increased in population; there is no ra-
tional reason why Ireland should not
have done the same thing.
A medicinal statistician in Boston took
the trouble to examine 1926 prescriptions

We're the most popular. Quinine took
the lead by making part of 29a prescrip-

mide of potassium was in III; iodide of
potassium in 155, and muriate of iron in
1874. The total number of articles in
the pharmacopaia is 994, and 504 of
them were asked for in one form or an
