y.r,.,,.. of Petroleum.

Crude petroleum varies from an al most colorless. highly mobile liquid to green, brown or almost black oil, as yiscous as treacle. Its composition va ries according to the strata from which 1t Is obtained. but it is mainly com posed of hydrocarbons, together with small quantities of bodies containing oxygen. nitrogen, sulphur and in some cases traces of arsenic, phosphorus etc. The American oil consists mainly of the saturated hydrocarbons belonging so the methane or parafiin group, but that of Russia, which is obtained from geologically newer strata. is principally composed of members of the naphthene group, which, while isomeric with the olefines and very similar in properties to the parafiins, belong to the benzene group and arc therefore entirely differ ent in chemical composition. It is to this peculiarity that the difference in the properties of the distillates from the Russian and American oils IS at tributable. e.-Pharmaceutical Post

Further, ac' cording to this writer. feeble persons those also who are lean and emaciated. and. above all. such as are sufferer from insomnia. owe it to themselves not to retire without taking some nour' ishment into the stomach. such as sim pie bread and butter, glass of milk, | few biscuits or crackers
