A Pretty Experiment.

How quickly the body eliminates
waste matter may be seen by the fol-
lowing simple and pretty experiment:
Eat a tablet of lithium citrate.
Then take clean platinum wire. hold
1t In colorless flame of Bunsen
burner and note that 1t gives no colora
ton to the flame. Now cool the wire
and pass 1t along the skin of the fore
head. or eftr rfnsing the hand In dis.
TILED water draw the wire across the
palm and again hold II to the colorless
Bunsen flame. Note the beautiful yei
low color, due to the presence of the
sodium. Next take blue glass and OBJ
serve the yellow flame through this.
The cobalt glass absorbs the yellow
sodium rays, and the lilac ia me OF
potassium now shows. About a half
hour after taking the lithia tablet make
the same test as above with a clean
platinum wire The vivid red flame
OF lithium Is now obtained. In one
short half hour the iithium entering at
the mouth has been absorbed into the
blood and carried to all parts of the
body and is being excreted through the
skin.-New York World.
