biscuit is patented, and, in addition, we have
applied for label registration, of which we
now give notice.
These crackers are very carefully put up in
attractive one pound cartons, odorless parch.
ment paper being used on the inside. and q
wrapper under seal) covering the outside of
the carton, thus protecting the goods from
all contamination, keeping them pure and
clean until they shall reach the hands of the
consumer.
Each cracker contains 10 per cent. in &C.
tual weight of the beef meal Of The Yir.
ginia Beef Extract and Beef Meal COMPANY

of about Is ounces Of fresh lean beef to every
pound of flour. The beef thus highly con.
centrated being in the form of peptone is
readily assimilated and is very nourishinp.

furnish you, free of expense, q sample of the
biscuit, so that you may judge it for yourself.

SCIENTIFIC SHOTS.

A new method of preserving meats
from which much is expected consists
in immersion in a 80 per cent. solution
of salt through which a continuous
current of electricity is being passed.
The curing is completed in from ten
taken out and dried.
y bar of lead cooled to a point about
300 degrees Fahrenheit below zero, ac-
cording to an experiment of NJ. Pictet,
gives out when struck pure musical
tone. Solidified mercury, at the same
temperature, is also resonant, while q
coil Of magnesium wire vibrates like q
steel spring.
Gold leaves so thin that 250,000
measure only an inch in thickness are
produced in the Swan process by
placing thin sheets of polished cop
per in an electroiytic gold-plating So
luton only until continuous gold film
has formed. then dissolving away the
copper In solution of ferric chloride.
Liquefled carbonie acid is now pro-
duced so cheaply that its use for motive
power for such purposes as driving
light carriages is often considered. A
difficulty encountered is the great abb
sorption of heat and consequent loss of
efficiency through the refrigeration of
the engine, as the liquid expands and
returns to the gaseous state.

FANCIES IN JEWELS.

A beautiful tiara being shown in
London was all diamond leaves and
scrolls lightly put together topped by
single large pear-shaped diamonds.
One London shop attracts fair Gus
toners with a magnificent brown dia-
mond-a rare stone-set in large single
diamonds. 1t can be worn as brooch
or a pendant.
One of the large fiat gold hearts
which have been worn abroad so much
this season. had set in it an Indian en-
erald set around with an old French
design in diamonds.
The newest watches are gold, with
colored dials mounted by the side of a
compass or calendar to match the
size of the watch on curb chain, and
they are called Jumelle bracelets.
The most up-to-date chains arc
formed Of alternate rubies, sapphires
and diamonds, set so closely that little
of the chain is seen. Some of them
have suspended fine gold chain-bag
purses with bayonet tops in gold ceR-
tered with a massive cabochon ruby set
in diamonds.
"A lovely little diamond peacock ball
ancing on single pearl has cabochon
rueies in its outspread tail, and the
tini.st emeralds in Its crest; and %
splendid curved diamond buckle, with
diamond prongs, has been one of tho
fevorite corsage ornaments this season.
For men. links and studs of star-stones
