ELIXIR OF LIFE
FROM BULGARIA
Is Sour Milk Responsible for Longevity
Of People in the Balkans?

Considerable misrepresentation appears
to exist regarding the so-caTed sour
milk supposed TO be associated with the
longevity Of the peoples Of the Balkan
peninsula. This milk product is called
Jaurt, and il is a form OF s0iidified
milk Of when fresh. about the texture
and color Of blanCmauEe made from
corn starch Kept under proper condi-
tiOns, it retains this character for two
OF three days. after which the whey be
gins TO run from il and IL is no longer
fit for use.
Its manufacture is comparatively easy.
and there exists no reason why fl should
not be made N almost any household
having access to a supply Of fresh milk
The process IS as follows An ounce
OF yeast is required for each gallon Of
fun milk The yeast IS IN the first in
stance dissolved in half "a pint OF milk
which should be made lukeWaTm. Then
divide the remaining quantity OF milk
into two portions one Of these must be
brouSh to boiling point and be turned
quickly into the other portion or colo
milk. Stir together, then add the dis
solved yeast and milk. and continue
stirring until the whole begins to seethe.
The vessel containing the now fer
Uenting liquid must be plunged into
cold water. which has the effect Of ar
resting the process Of rapid fermenta-
uCn set up
The product which is thus formed
must be left I'm the vessel plunged in
the cold water until the whole forms q
solid mass perfectly cold itself. This
constitutes the complete iuart. a deli
CiousIy delicate form of curd, very
slightly acid, but possessing the sweet
favor of cream and milk with n quite
VelVety texture.
it must be kept in a weil-aired dairy,
cellar. or other clean and sWeet-smeu-
ing place, because II win become tainted
easily A clean linen cloth is sufficient
covering and small wooden dairy tubs
or carthenware piplzins are the best
vessels in which TO make and keep il.
The juart must not he cut. but any
portion required removed from the sur
face with a fiat wooden spoon.
AS will be seen. although similar in
form TO the cIrd OF Curds and whey
and to ordinarily Curded milk. Il is a
quite distinct product. and no doubt
possesses entirely different properties.

GHOSTS DESCRIBED

Astral Facts Conditioned
by Rates of Vi
orator.

At the Sunday public meeting of the
Capital city TheosophiCai Society IN
Pythian Temple a lecture was delivered
by DR.. A. J. Corey on the subject Of
Ghosts and Other Astral Phenomena
Being the second Of n series of talks
on this topic by DR.. Corey, he first eN-
planned the nature and constitution of
matter. illustrating graphically the va
rious grades of substance from solids
10 ether and thence the astral. mental,
and higher planes
There is only one original source Of
life, substance and intelligence he
said. and all the great philosophers and
cults taught a corresponding trinity, log
ically the same, not even excepting that
found in the theology now prevalent
among ourselves"
After establishing the unity of sub
stance and the unity Of consciousness.
one can 'undel stand, he claimed, how
the question of experimenting a ghost
or other astral fact was entirely con-
ditiOned by The rates of vibration to
which our organisms are capable of
responding. Thus 1t is no disproof of
a particular appaTitiOn to find that only
one or two of a company Of persons
Were able 10 see it.
This unequal development of our
senses, said he, is clearly shown by ask
ing several persons TO indicate the lin
its of the req and violet rays OF the
spectrum; in a mixed company perhaps
no two pairs OF eyes would agree. EX-
pcriments In sound and touch would
slow similar differences. in people. and
no doubt their minds showed even great
er disprOpOTLiOn.
The speaker concluded with instances
OF astral and ghostly phenomena, some
of which came within his own eXpe-
rienCe and that of witnesses whom he
named.
