Artificial Ivory.

AS manufacturers abroad claim that
the supply of ivory is too small to
meet the demand of industry and art,
an extensive industry has arisen in
France to supply an artificial substi~
tute for natural ivory. Until recent
ly the substitute used has been OBJ
tanned by injecting white wood with
chloride of lime, under strong pres
sure. Within short time, however,
it has been established that a better
substitute may be prepared with the
bones of sheep and waste pieces of
deer and kid skins.
The bones are for this purpose
macerated and bleached for two
weeks in chloride Of lime, then heat
ed by steam along with the skin so as
to form fluid mass, to whcih is added
q few hundreths of alum; the mass is
then filtered, dried in the air, and
caused to harden in a bath of alum
the result being white, tough plates
which are more easily worked than
natural ivory.

Tannin in The Treatment of Burns.

Drug Circular.
A correspondent of the Pharma~
ceutische Zeitung, speaking from his
own experience, says that tannin can
not be too highly recommended as
an application to burns, especially
when very extensive, the skin being
entirely removed. A 5 per cent. So
luton is squeezed from sponge over
the denuded surface, which is then
dressed with some soft ointment,
either with or without tannin. Rain
Immediately abates, and the healing
process is wonderfully rapid. The
tannin solution must, of course, be
freshly applied as often as the dres
sings are renewed.
