Making Food in the Laboratory
the Time Near Hand When Chemistry the

TIME basis of physical life is a
substance called protoplasm.
The word protoplasm means
the first formed" and the idea un
DERIVING it is that this substance
represents the first step from unliv-
ing matter TO living bodies, such
as plants and animals. Everything
that contains protoplasm Is alive,
and without protoplasm there is no
life
That eloquent paladin Of science
Thomas II Huxley used to charm
big audiences with his lecture on
protoplasm. He told his hearers
how the activities of a living ami
NAL gradually use up it's supply of
protoplasm. and how it is COMPEL
ed to renew it by eating other crea-
lures, either animals or plants,
which possess this precious sub
stance, for an. animal can not
MAKE protoplasm: it must find it
somewhere and take ii READY
MADE. The only living things that
can make their own protoplasm out
of the raw materials of nature are
plants. We know what chemical
elements protoplasm contains, but
nevertheless we have not discover
ed the secret OF putting them to-
gether in such a way as actually TO
form protoplasm. Plants possess
that secret.
We get protoplasm either by TAX
ing it at second hand from animals
which. in their turn have taken it
primarily from plants. OF We get it
more directly by ourselves eating
the plants. We start in life with
certain amount of prOtoplasm,
which has been supplied to us at
birth by our parents. but as we use
it up we are compelled to replace
the waste by eating something
which contains it,
Professor Huxley used to Illus
trate this process very amusingly.
He said:
MY protopasm will be distinct
~ less in amount at the end of this
lecture than it was at the begin
ming. BY and by | shall probably
have recourse to the substance
commonly called mutton for the
purpose of renewing the supply.
Now. this mutton was once the liv-
ing protoplasm, more or less modi-
fed of another ANIMAL sheep. A
singular inward laboratory which |
possess win dissolve a certain por-
tion of the modified protoplasm;
the solution formed will pass into
my veins, and the subtle influences
TO which it will then be subjected
viii convert the dead protoplasm
into living prcJoplasu and thus
trans -ubstantiate sheep into man

at viii. In that case an army on
the march would never have to
trouble itself about its wagon
II. trains. When we went for dav in
the country we should not need to
load ourselves with lunch baskets.
We could dispense with our broad
fields of wheat and corn. our gar
dens full of vegetables our or
chards of fruit trees We could
abolish forever the nuisance of the
stock yards, cheCkmate, once for
all the cornerers of foodstuffs and
put an immediate end to the high
price Of living.
But science has tried in vain to
manufacture protoplasm. Never
theless, something has recently
been done in Germany which seems
TO offer the promise that. if we
can not actually make protoplasm.
we may be able to turn the corner
by making food which will do its
work. Dr.. Abderhalden has sue
ceeded in manufacturing in his lab
oratory a chemical food on which
young dogs have been brought up
strong healthy and lively-appar-
entity just as good dogs as if they
had been nourished upon their nat
ura food
DR.. Abderhalden has arrived at
this result by first studying the
transformations that take place in
that, during this process certain
peculiar acids are formed which
act controlling part in the subse-
Quent transformations. he set to
work to make these acids artif-
ciallN. and he says that he has sue
ceeded, and proves his assertion
by the evidence of his dogs.
have not heard that he has. as vet.
tried his chemical food upon man.
but that would naturally be the
next step 1t would not be worth
while to strain all the resources of
chemistry simply for the benefit of
dogs.
In fact, animals would. if they
could comprehend the subject. very
gladly lend themselves to such .eX-
perimentS, the ultimate result of
which is 10 free them from the fate
of being Killed and eaten by their
masters. Who knows but that
when chemical foods have been
perfected they may be delicious
and 80 easily digested that any
guormand would turn up his nose
at the most sucCulent turkey or the
most Skilltuily cooked lobster?
Seriously this is a very impor-
tant matter Man. who has so
amazingly emancipaJed himself
from natures limitations in the
field of mechanical energy. owes
it to himself to attain a similar
"mancipation i'm regard to the
maintenance Of his vital energies

On a Diet
BY N. P. BABCOCK.

TIMES We're when we were
~ stricken
With an ailment or a pain,
They gave us drugs that Sicken,
BY the teaspoon or the grain.
They all were somewhat nasty
When prescribed for any case.
And the taste was very Lastly,
And il made you make a face.
But twas nothing to the portion
Of the woes you now must bear,
Since the does have added caution
To your other stomach care
You seek some pang to quiet
That you've never felt since birth,
Whereupon they order diet"
Which is simply hell on earth.
All meats they call the red ones.
And all pastry. cakes and sweets.
Are appetizing dead ones.
In the schedule of your eats.
The frying pans aroma
May no more your sense delight;
\ gustatulN coma
Is the only state that's right
Did any vegetable
Hold a special JOY for YOU,
You must declare you're able
Just that one now to eschew.
All sauces that are pleasant
Are sort of devils broth;
You stare like starving peasant
At a foodlesS table cloth
And misery completing
Is the rule that's understood;
BE regular in eating.
But eat nothing that tastes good.
