mes and in some special Cases to
a still higher figure. The same
experiments were repeated by
other military doctors and led
them 10 the same conclusions
reached by DR.. Leitenstorfer,
viz, that the sugar increased the
energy, enabled the men to pro-
duce considerable muscular
effort and rapidly reduced fatigue
resulting from momentary over
work. 1t has been stated also
that the men consumed with
pleasure the rations of sugar
which have been given to them
and surprising feature was
that the sugar reduced both hun
ger and thirst. The German
doctor explained this last proper
ty by the increased secretion by
the salivary glands produced by
the sugar which rapidly removed
the sugary flavor from the mouth
10 moistening the tongue and
palate.
The doctor counsels daily use
of sugar as valuable in aug ment-
ing the nutritive value of the ordi-
nary ration of the soldiers. He
recommends the use of sugar in
coffee, or in the form of honey or
syrups and fruit marmalades, or
of sweet pastry. For troops on
the march natural sugar would
be preferred.-Sugar Planters

Sugar in the German Army.

Some curious experiments in
regard to the value of sugar a, i
food have been made by DR..
Leitenstorfer. These expert
ments were first undertaken at
Metz in 1897 and in a company of
each battalion of soldiers DR..
Leitenstorfer selected twenty
men and of these ten subjected
to a diet including sugar added
to the ration, while nothing else
was modified in the food of the
ten others who we're held as a
com pafatlve study. These ex-
periments continued from the
4th of August to the 10th OF Sep
TENDER during the period of the
greatest activity, including the
i'm perial manoeuvres.
At the end of the experiments
twenty soldiers were weighed in
dividLally under the same con.
ditions. The soldiers who had
sugar added to their ration in
creased in weight IA kilos and

In the domain Of periodical literature in Eng

glad to see cleared up. An illustrated art
magazine is published. 1t contains half tones

scriber is asked to pay an annual sum which,
we admit, is reasonable enough. But under the
prctence Of making him happy, the publisher
supplies what he calls n presentation plate"
or premium" and the impression is vaguely
conveyed that the purchaser is in some way,
being given something for nothing 1t is i'm
possible to see why he has not paid in his
subscription, for this pseudo gift. 1t is true
that the presentation plate is usually large in
scale. and sometimes different in character
from anything published within the covers Of
the magazine upon whose readers it is be
slowed" But the form of the gift has moth
ing to do with the point. If the publishers
were to give the subscriber a presentation"
