there are others which contain no
starch, such as cloves, mustard
and cayenne pepper. Starch
added to jellies and to those con-

contain starch, is detected by
adding water to the material and
heating it to the boiling point and
then cooling. While boiling, a
solution of potassium perman-
ganate is added, drop by drop,
stirring constantly, until the so

After cooling, which may be
hastened by placing in cold water
a drop of tincture of iodin is
added. Both the potassium per

may be found in every pharmacy.

ILLINOIS COUPLES WAKE UP
TO FIND THEY'RE NOT WE'D

Chicago, Dec. 1S.-A decision OF the
Illinois supreme court today makes
it necessary for scores of Chicago
couples to rem marry If they wish their
union to be recognized as legal. The
court ruled that when a person vio-
lates the Illinois statute prohibiting
re-marriage within one year after the
divorce, the ceremony is not legal
even if performed in another state.
Neither has one party any claim on
the estate OF the other
The children resulting from the il
legal marriages are without moral
protection and have no standing in
law.
Great numbers of Illinoisans have
gone to other states and re-married
in less than one year after being
divorced in their own state. The un
ions have been considered legitimate,
but the final court decision will COM
pei them to re-marry now ii a year
has interviewed, or wait until a year
has elapsed.

before the Anthropological Society

in favor of self government, but the
remainder are willing to remain sub

to revolving gun turret within 80
minutes after which the turret could
be turned so as to throw the flying
