OLD WHISKY THE BEST.
Age RObs 1t of the FuseI oil which
Makes 1T so DeleteriOus.
From the London Lancet.

From the London Lancet.
The commonly prevailing ideas as to
the chemistry of whisky are evidently con-
fused The public notion has always
been that crude or freshly distilled whis-
ky was injurious and that it required the
mellOwing influence of age to make It fit
for consumption. In other words, new
whisky was held to be deleterious be-
cause it contained fusel oil, and that
the reason why old whisky was more
wholesome was because this fusel oil
changed in course of time to the so-called
oenanthic ether. To put it chemically
the amyl alcohol (fusel OLD oxidides slow
~ into amyl ether, which is not only
thought to be tnnocuous, but to improve
the flavor. The deputy principal Of the
inland revenue branch of the government
laboratory would remove these notions at
one sweep Thus, in reply to question
before the liquor commission on Tuesday
last he stated-and Ii was repeated
statement-that ii was a mistake to sup
pose that new spirits contained more flu
sci oil and were more unw'holesome than
Ode
With the former part of this statement
we will not now deal, but to the latter
we distinctly demur. 1t cannot be sup
posed that whisky merchants take the
trouble to store their whisky for years
unless they know 1t is thereby improved
from the dietetic point of view Again. it
Is we'll known that so convinced are the
authorities of the Canadian government
OF the unwholesomeness of new whisky
that we believe they have a regulation in
force prohibiting the sale of whisky that
has not been stored for a certain number
of years. Fusel oil is admittedly injurious
Indeed, misunderstanding, at least
to the experiments of several Observers
In one case for example, one part of amyl
alcohol in 800 parts of water caused anes-
thesia in frogs in twenty minutes. the
hearts action becoming slower, the skin
dark death occurring in about two hours,
and the cardiac pulsations gradually ceas-
ing. The common effect of fusel oil is
to produce intense headache. and it must
be borne in mind that in the case of
whisky the action of alcohol must be
added to that of the fusel oil. The amount
of fusel oil, we believe, in whisky aver
ages 02 per cent. These observations
hardly bear out the statements made he
fore the commission. Incidentally we
may add that il is exceedingly satisfac-
tory to find that the consensus of opinion
of the witnesses before this commission
appears to be that there is a decrease
in drunkenness in the metropolis but this
decrease, it is noteworthy, is less among
women than among men.

PRESIDENTS AUTOGRAPHS.
Their Worth FIuctuntes According
TO the writers Popularity.

From the Collector.
Presidential years bring out a crop Of
interesting autographs. Sometimes it
brings entirely new men into the market.
but generally it lifts 25-cent and 5O-cent
specimens to a higher plane.
A republican nomination viii carry a 90
cent man to $3.50, while his election will
make It 50. If an entirely dark horse
should be chosen his letters might easily
be quoted at from IS 10 $40, as there would
be great rush for him and probably an
insufficient supply
For, a long time Arthur was at $40 to
81, but is now IS to SO. Collectors who
have complete sets OF presidents desire
the new men at once and their COMPETE
ton drives up the price.
As ex-President Harrison generally die
tates his letters the price Of his autograph
letters continues very high.
The democratic nomination al Chicago
will help the value of some man for a
time, but 1t will probably fall back after
November.
McKinley's letters have never been very
He Is already worth " and will be higher
later on.
The letters of vice presidents are never
in very great demand unless for other
reasons than holding that Office. 1t is an
office of possibilities and amounts to very
little in itself.
With the new president come a new
batch of cabinet officers and it generally
includes several unknown men. 1t is gen.
orally months before any of their letters
turn up but they come in time.
The autograph fend is very busy In
these times and his pressing communica-
lions form large part of the mail of each
presidential candidate. Like the poor
the fiend IS always with us, but let us be
gentle with him, as often he graduates
into reputable collector.
