DEFINES DIABETIo FOODS
U. S. Department of Agriculture Is- sues Decision on Gluten Products
 and Diabetic Food

st
 Washington, Feb. 4.-Food Inspec- ton Decision No. 16O, recently issued by the U. s. Department of Agricul- ture, for the guidance of officials of the Department in enforcing the Food and Drugs Act, fixes definite limit to the amount of starch and sugar that may be present in certain gluten products and diabetic foods, and also fixes the amount of nitrogen that must be present in certain of these products, and makes requirements as to mois- ture and other constituents. The de- disfon covers ground gluten, gluten flour, self-rising fIuten flour, and dia- bette foods. The definitions and stan- dards as stated in the Food Inspection Decision were recommended by the Joint Committee on Definitions and Standards, consisting of representa- tives of the U. s. Department of Agri- culture, the Association of American Dairy. Food, and Drug Officials, and the Association of Official AgricuItur- al Chemists. These two associations have already adopted the definitions and standards.
 Investigations by the officials in charge of the enforcement of the Food and Drugs Act have shown that vari- ous< food products have been placed on the market from time to time that are recommended by the nanufactur- CTS for use by people suffering from diabetes. It is generally held that the foods best suited to persons suffering from diabetes are those which contain little or no starch and sugar. Some of the foods placed on the market and recommended by the manufacturers for use in diabetes have been found to contain nearly as much starch and su- gar ordinary products, so that they were of more value in the treat ment of diabetes than ordinary food products that could be purchased more cheap1y. The diabetic patient can avoid ordinary food products that contain considerable quantities of starch and sugar, as the composition of these products are generally known In the case of prepared foods adver- tised for use in diabetes, however the patient may be mis1ed into eating quantities of starch and sugar that might be positively injurious.
 Hereafter such products should meet the requirements of Food In-t spection Decision No. 16O which are as follows:
 Ground Gluten is the clean sound product made from wheat flour blythe almost complete removal of starch and contains not more than ten per cent. of moisture, and, calculated on the water-free basis, not less than fourteen and two-tenths per cent. of nitrogen, not more than fifteen per cent. of nitrogen free extract (using tine protein factor 5.O, and not more than five and five-tenths per cent of starch Gas determined by the diastase method).
 Gluten flour is the clean, sound product made from wheat flour by the removal of a large part of the starch and contains not more than ten per

CANADA AND THE EMPIRE

The first participation of the Cana dian government in the foreign af- fairs of the Empire resulted from Sir John A. NIacdonald's consultation with his cabinet colleagues 45 years ago today, Feb. 4. 1871, when it was decided to accept the imperial govern ment'se invitation to Sir John to act as member of the joint high com mission to settle differences between the British and United States gover11- ments. This was highly important innovation. as it was the first time in history that a Canadian statesman had been asked to participate in ne- gotiations with a foreign power. Many questions of great importance to Can ada, including the fisheries controyer- sy, the Oregon boundary dispute and the St. Lawrence navigation matter, came in for attention at the Wash ington meeting Of the commission. Sir John stood up va1iantly for what he deemed Canadian rights, but he had little support from his British col leagues. and the treaty of Washington was far from satisfactory to the peo- pie of the Dominion.

Maxine Elliott, Famous Actress, Plays New Role
 As Angel of Mercy

Miss Maxine Elliott, who has given so largely of her time and money to the relief work in Belgium. was born in Rockland, Maine, and will be for ty-three years old tomorrow. The gifted American actress has made her home in England for many years. and at the outbreak of the war she inter- ested herself in the heatrending and giganz:c task of providing food for the starving Belgians Many of the famishing people of that country re- ceived the food that meant life to them from the fair hands of the com passionate queen of the stage. In her new role of angel of mercy Miss Elliott has scored a greater success than ever before.
 Miss Elliott and her sister, now Lady Gertrude Forbes Robertson spent much of their childhood on board the sailing vessel commanded by their father, Capt. Thomas Dermot The old skipper died at his home in Oakland, Cal, about year ago. He name was originally McDermot, but he dropped the 'fMc'' upon coming to America at the age of fourteen. In the late sos, when he was a prosper ous shipowner and master of deep sea craft, he married Adelaide Hau LongfeIlow. To them were born three sons and two daughters, Maxine and Gertrude, both of whom have attained great distinction on the stageN
 The girls received the better part of their education from their mother although Maxine spent about a year in a convent at Roxbury, Mass. She was only sweet sixteen when she went to New York to begin her theat- ricaI career. Her first appearance was in the role of Felicia, Umphra vile in ''the Midd1eman,'' which was produced in New York in the season of 189o-91.
 It was in 1895 that Miss Elliott played her first engagement in Lon don with Augustin Daly's company and her beauty and talent attracted great attention in the British metro polls. The following year she joined Nat Goodwin's company, divorced her first husband, George A. McDermot a New York lawyer, and became one of Marrying Mats" wives.
 Since retiring from the stage Miss Elliott has become prominent in Eng fish society, where her charm and beauty have quite overshadowed the fact that she is a woman of the stage and the ex-wife of Nat Goodwin.

THE MAXIM GUN

Sir Hiram Stevens Maxim, inven- tor of the Maxim gun and smokeIess powder, will pass his seVenty-sixth
 milestone tomorrow. Sir Hiram was born at Sangervt1le, Me, and worked as a coach builders apprentice and in various iron works before beginning his career as an inventor. He went to England in 1881 and has remained there ever since, winning knighthood and other honOrs and accommodating a fortune from his many inventions. The
 Maxim gun, an improved automatic machine for dealing death on the bat t1ef1e1d, is now largely used by all the nations at war. Germany Is said to have about 60,OO0 of these guns. and the British, French and other govern tents have been turning them out as rapidly as possible, as they have been found to rank high among the most effective weapons of modern warfare. It was the Prince of Wales, after ward King Edward, who induced the German Emperor to adopt the Maxim gun in his army. Some twenty years ago, when the Kaiser was visiting, England, the Prince offered to show his imperial uncle @ gun that could spit bullets at the rate of 600 a minute. The Emperor was imm ediately inter ested, and, after witnessing a test of the little Maxim, which far surpassed the old GatIings, Nordenfeldts and Gardeners, he ordered large number of the guns for the German army. Thus it was an American inventor, in- troduced to the Kaiser by a British Prince who provided the Teutons with one of the most dangerous of their weapons. Since the war began Sir Hiram has invented an apparatus for dissipating poison gas, and an in- cendiary bullet for use against zeppe-1
