FOOD PRESERVATIVES.

The use of preservatives for arti-
cles intended tor food and drink is an
important ole, both for the manutact-
urer and consumer. From a sanitary
point of view it is doubtful whether any
OF the preservatives ordinarily added to
the articles intended for human con-
sumption ought to be encouraged
Laws exist in continental European
countries prohibiting the use of certain
of these agents. Sallcylic acid is pro-
hlbited by most of them, and the manu-
facturers are there beginning the use of
benzoic acid, which is preservative in
small amounts and is not easy to de-
tect. After a discussion at conven-
ton OF chemists in Speyer, Bavaria, on
the 10th Of September, 1888, the con-
cluSion was reached that boric acid as
a preservative ior foods is to be regard
ed with caution. Sanitary authorities
have generally spoken in stronger terms
of the use of boric acid, and yet it en-,
tiers into the composition OF large
number of the preservatives OF the
market. Hirschsohn gives descrip-
ton o. several different boro glycerines
which h. recommends for preserving
foods. Boro glycerine is prepared by
heating glycerine with boric acid in
the proportion of I24 of the former to
100 OF the latter. He also recommends
sodium, calcium and magnesium gly-
cero borates. These compounds are
mostly tasteless, and quite soluble in
water and alcohol. Magnesium borate
is recomm ended as a remedy in throat
affections. A. r, Rosen recommends
the following method for preserving
meats: Boric acid or its salts are dis
solved in water and the solution is then
lIUZCu. lC dlllClC W UC plCSClNCu Ia
then covered with this ice with the re-
suit that the meats are preserved after
the ice melts. DR.. E. Polenske has
made an investigation of ten CONNER
cial preservatives intended for meats.
Three of the ten contained sulphurous
acid or sulphites two contained borax
and five boric acid one each contained
alum, arsenious oxide; salicylic acid ;
and free phosphoric acid; two contain
ed glycerlne and two boro- -glycerine ;
three contained nitre and six common
salt. The enc containing arsenious
oxide was the only one actively poison.
Gus, but several of the others were de-
cidedly Objectionable. Indeed, we
should object to the addition of any
thing to our meats which is not ma
tural ingredient of food or cannot be
converted into a compound natural to
the human body.-ITom tile Medical

ries. particularly in certain parts Of
Mexico and South America, its habits
being the plants of the cactus family.
The female is the most important men,
Der of the cochineal household, as she
is the color producer. She is wingless,
of a deep brown color, and her body is
covered with a whitish powder. This
little insect fastens itself to branch Of
the cactus, and thrusting its beak into
the mass it stays there usually for life,
sucking the juices of the plant. 1t in
creases in size rapidly and soon 1t is
hard to tell it from seed or berry.
When the female is full of eggs she
stops feeding, incloses herself in white

they are speedily killed by hot water or

How many of these little cochlneal
bugs do you suppose are required
to weigh pound1 Seventy thousand
Well, says some bright lad, if it takes
so many to weigh pound the stock of
cochineal dye stuff must be quite limit
ed. No, the cochineal is an extensive
one. Large plantations of cactus are
grown especially to raise the cochineal
bug, and it is said that in single year
there have been imported into the
United States alone nearly 100000
pounds of dried insects, valued at
round million Of dollars. England buys
an equally large amount, and France
deals in them quite as extensively. AS
many as 1,4oo tons of cochineal have
been exported in the past when this in
dustry was at its height, but the use OF
aniline dyes has lessened the trade con
siderabiy. The most recent statistics
of cochieneal imports show that the
quantity annually brought to this

SHORTENING DAYS.

There is something natural IN the
early withdrawal OF the sun and the
long twilight, to the prevalent gray skies
and chilly airs, of most of early winter
afternoons that lends itself, with those
of rural and suburban life, to melan-
choly which is more than gentle, and is
not without its morbid dangers for the
senitive temperament already predls-
posed to gloom. 1t is the parting of the
year, as the winter IS its icy sleep of
death, as the spring is its glorious resur-
rect1on. But it is the winter that is at
hand, and spring is among the far off
things hardly believed in till they come
and a sort of torebodlng overtakes the
shadowed spirit from the moment that
the first rosenush on the eastern horizon
tells the story of the declining day at a
time when, little while ago, we hardly
remembered that 1t mad left off being
morning, and when, in a sky from
which all other birds have fled, save
where in the night the Aocks of wild
geese flying south go trumpeting and
changing on unseen, pair of black
crows flap heavily, and seem only the
ominous bearers of evil. There is moth
ing for 1t then but to do something that
shall stir the blood, and oxygenate it,
and set it to budding in our veins-a
brisk walk frolic with the baby
caddy- boiling diving among boxes
and bundles of old possessions in COM
pany with some one who will be sur
prised as we ourselves are in reclaim
Ing some forgotten hoard of treasures
once put away for future use, and
never to better use than in being pulled
over on such day such as this, if one
be of those to whom such dlsceS
gives pleasure.
