Artificial Compound Is Made to Take

The chemist n the prevention of
sale of adulterated and impure food
have put their rejected brand IN an
other favorite beverage. Patrons of
the soda fountain who have been
taught to ask for lemon or vanilla flaw
oring, for the alleged reason that those
sirups were less liable than others to
adulteration, will be surprised at the
assertion that there is no extract for
which substitutes are more often used
than vanilla. This is said on the au-
thority of the Massachusetts board of
health. The true vanilla bean costs
from s12 to S16 per pound. and were
there no substitute 1t could not be used
so freely and so extensively as at pres
emit Vanillin, the active property OF
the extract, can be made from other
substances at a cost of about 81 per
gallon. The artificial compound is
chemically identical with the vanillin
found in the true vanilla extract n

sively by manufacturers and dealers.

poses from turpentine. but more salts

of cloves or benzoic acid, and 1t is now
extracted chiefly from these. 1t Is o m

quantities and has been found to pos

THE END %THE TURK

The departure of M. Constans from
Constantinople and the confession Of
the sultan that he is unable to main
tain the obligations due by one gov
eminent to another revives an old
question: After the Turk, what?"
Ever since the peace of 1915 the
Turk has been maintained in Europe
by the consent of the nations. The
Christianity of the world has protested
against the presence of the Turk in
Europe. 1t has been regarded as an
outrage that the metropolis of the
eastern empire should have fallen into
such hands. Even when maintained
upo his throne by the swords of
Christian Europe the Sultan has per-
mitted the massacres of Bulgaria
which shocked the world. So far as
Christian sentiment is concerned.
there has not been a day during
b past half century when the Turk
could not have been run into the
Hellespont. But two obstacles stood
in the way, grossly material and vet
sufficient to protect the stronghold of
Islamism.
The first and most serious obstacle
has peer the balance of power. The
safety of Europe. as long as 1t Is con-
trolled by rival monarchies, lies in the
maintenance of a certain number CT
powerful governments, each one a
check pom the othcr. There is the
western European idea, as repre-
sented by England and France, as
against the eastern as represented by
Russia. For years Austria stood as
the buffer power between west and

Che Danish Wesf Indies.

The announcement that Denmark
has agreed to accept the offer of 49,
600 900 kroner by the United States for
the Danish West Indies, II finally au-
thenticated. means the withdrawal of
another foreign flag from the western
hemisphere and the requirement by
this nation of the finest harbor and
site for a naval station in the entire
group of islands.
Whether the United States drove a
good bargain or not depends upon the
value of the islands to this country
strategically and commercially and
the price paid for them. Commercial

With our flag over Porto Rico and
with the isthmian canal under our
control. it is very easy to discern the
great strategic and commercial adj
vantages that will accrue to US through
the possession of these islands. The
Danish West Indies consist OF the
Islands of st. Thomas, st. Croix, st.
John and st. Eustatius, lying east and
southeast OF Porto Rico. With a
naval base at st. Thomas We would
command the Virgin Passage. which
lies between the island and Porto
Rico. while naval stations on the
coast of Cuba and Porto Rico will give
us the mastery of the highway from
Europe to Central and South America
and the absolute control OF the eastern
terminus of the Nicaragua canal.
