BOGUS COFFEE.

How Frauds and dulterants May BE
Readily Detected.
Artificial coffees can be detected in
unground samples by a careful eX-
animation and separation of all beans
which do not have a portion of the fine
mem brane with which they were orig
inally invested, still adhering in the
cleft. The suspected beans should be
cut open and the structure examined
The uniform structure of the artificial
coffee is very distinctive and after COM
parison with that of genuine coffee
can never be mistaken for the latter.
Pure, ground, roasted coffee will
float on cold water coloring it very
slightly and slowly, while bogus cof-
fee, chicory, roasted cereals, etc, sink,
coloring the water quickly. Chicory
is very easily detected by this test,
since the particles in sinking leave Il
trail of color behind them. Cereals,
when light roasted" may escape de-
lection by the water test, but they
respond readily to iodine, giving the
characteristic reaction for starch. A
hot water extract of the adulterated
sample containing cereals, or other
starch bodies, when filtered, cooled,
acidulated with sulphuric acid and de-
colorized by permanganate of potas-
sium, will show blue color on the adj
ditlon of tincture of iodine. Chicory
contains no starch, hence if the water
is quickly colored and iodine does not
| give the characteristic reaction, chicory
is probably present. The microscopic
examination will reveal the presence
of starches, if cereals, acorns, peas or
beans constitute the adulterant, and
generally sufficient relics of the orig
inal structures of these substances will
escape destruction in the.roasting proc
ess for their Identification. The pres
ence of chicory is also finally verified
by the microscope. -Guilford L. Spen-
Ger, in Chautauquan.

was not sound anywhere except the
voice of the old clock, saying: Gone
gone! gone-gone" with dreadful
haste and perseverance. Presently
Joshua dozed. 1t was twilight when
he slept and black night when he
awoke, and he heard the far-away
whistle of the New York night eX-
press. He felt his way to the door and
went out, Why in the world he

on the ground, his lantern under his
arm, helping some one out Joshua
went forward and took her in his

Serena could scarcely speak before
they reached the gate. One by one the
old familiar objects along the path
broke upon her sight, though shrouded
in the dark, with the sweet sense of
awakened memory which comes to
one returning home after long years of
absence. At last she said: Joshua,

Tho Great Care Exercised by Them In
Slaughtering Animals.
One of the largest abattoirs in the
city, covering an ample block, owned
and operated by men of Jewish race
and faith, is remarkable for it's smooth
effective working and admirable dis
tribution OF parts An average of eight
hundred cattle, between three and five
years old, pass through it in each of the
business days of the year. Arriving
from the west at the rivcr-front, they
ascend one by one to the fateful in
closure, where an adept employe fastens
chain around the hind leg of each.
Hoisted by machinery, the bovine falls
gently upon one shoulder, and in most
instances without cry Occasionally,
however, some brute, maddened by
sight and smell of blood, breaks out
into the slaughter-house, and creates
disturbance that is speedily quelled by
its own despatch. Submissive compan-
ions, with neck twisted to expose the
throat, quickly feel the shochet's long
and shining knife. The shochet himself
is stalwart fellow, cool and wary
withal, who rarely makes useless
motion. He is a religious man and of
good moral character, as his license
from Rabbi Jacob Joseph, chief of GER

tropolis, avouches. The lifestream in
torrents follows the movement of his
