Gum Arabic.

About q year ago iJ was noticed
that the extensive Justification to
which gum arabic was being subject.
ed, owing tn the disturbances in inner
Africa, had made good gum rare and
expensive. In consequence of this
scarcity other substances are intro
duced from Australia, South America,
ETC., as substitutes for gum arabic,
but none of them is equal to the
genuine Soudan gum
A. Jacksch, in q paper on this sub
ject, states that inferior materials
mixed with gum Gheziri are coming
into Germany in large quantities.
and being sold as gum in granulo"
and that many of the best firms have
been deceived.
1t is impossible to recognize this
imposition by simply dissolviug the
substance, for this gelatinOus par
ticles, being very fine, are suspended
in solution and remain invisible; but
the adulteration can easily be defect
ed as follows:
Some OF the suspected sample is
mixed with ten times its weight of
hot water, and than allowed to stand
for three or four hours, stirring the
mixture occasionally. The insoluble
matter will settle down, and then
about half of the liquid should be
poured of, and the same quantity Of
cold water added to make Up the
original bulk. which Is then stirred
aud again set to stand, and this re.
pested twice.
