say so.
I'm my opinion great part of

MILK AS A PRESERVATIVE.
Chemist Announces Remarkable Re-
suits From SKINNED Variety.

odihS OkiTnme0 variety.
That skinned milk freed of bacteria
Is perfect preservative is the discov.
cry recently announced by DR.. o. Hen.
~ Novak of Austin, H., who has
been chemist forty years and has
been employed by the United States
and Austrian governments.
Basically the theory is that dipping
articles of food in skinned milk coats
them with an almost invisible film that
absolutely keeps out germs, air or wa
ter and Is indissoluble and impervious
to acids. The thin film will preserve
fresh meats, eggs, fruit or other edi-
bles subject TO decomposition without
regard to temperature according to
the chemist, who Is corrobOrated by
other scientists and professional men.
In his laboratory In Austin the other
afternoon DR.. Novak exhibited hang
ing pieces of beef, leg of lamb and
fish which were subjected TO bath
in skinned milk four days previously.
The temperature since then had been
around 90 or 20. but these articles had
the appearance and odOr of perfectly
fresh pieces. An egg which had been
dipped on Jan. o, 1909, was opened
Those who saw the egg say it could
not nave been distinguished from an
egg laid the same day.
Dr Novak says nothing should be
dipped which is not fresh. After germs
have developed the film is worse than

Lioht and Dark CIoars.

A striking example of the ordinary
smokers ignorance on the subject OF
smokes is the popular superstition that
a dark looking cigar is stronger than a
lighter colored one. Some strong cigars
have dark wrappers, but the dark
wrapper does not by any means indi-
cate Il strong cigar. Dark. gummy to-
bacco. If thoroughly cured, is the mild
est form. OF course If dark tobacco Is
not thoroughly cured ii will be strong
but so will light tobacco. for that mat.
ter. Any cigar man will bet you that
the dark color is usually. though not
always. a sign of ripe. well cured
leaf, which is therefore milder nine
times out of ten than the lighter hued
leaf But when it is known that every
manufacturer makes both dark and
light cigars and that he uses exactly
the same blend of filler in both and
that the wrapper only constitutes n
small fractional part of the cigar 1t Is
clearly seen that the shade of the
wrapper has little to do with the
strength Of the cigar Ask the dealer
for strong cigar. He hands out a
dark one. and the imagination does

Those great tropical fruits can only be
eaten properly after stripping Off the
hard and often acrid rind that guards
