MIX DOUGH WITH SEA WATER
Wider Adoption Of the Practice Is Rec
commended by French Naval Phar-
macist, Health Advantages.

1t has long been custom in certain
parts of France to make up the dough
for bread with sea-water instead of
using, as is customary. fresh water,
with the addition of salt required to
make bread both healthful and appe-
tizing, says the Literary Digest. NJ.
Albert Saint Sernin, a French naval
pharmacist of the first class, urges the
wider adoption of the practice which
has, according to him, several advan-
tages; the bread keeps moist longer,
owing to the affinity for water pos
sessed by the magnesium chloride sea-
water contains; 1t is very wholesome,
since it provides not only the chlorides
of sodium and magnesium, but other
mineral substances which the body can
make use of.
The water must be collected at
suitable distance from land and should
be taken from depth of six or seven
yards If possible. The yeast must be
prepared with fresh water and the salt
water used for mixing the dough. The
French writer adds:
Bread made with sea water, useful
for everybody, Is to be recommended
especially for growing children, for
convalescents, and for all those who
need to repair the wastes due to fever
or to hard labor"

Rust OissoIver.

Az Italian inventor has patented a
method Of cleansing iron and steel
from rust. BY his process the metal
is made the cathode in a phosphoric
acid electrolyte. 1t is claimed that
this acid, unlike others, dissolves
away the rust without attacking the
solid metal, and also tends to prevent
subsequent rustlng. The electrolyte
is made by adding 10 parts of phos-
phoric acid to 90 parts of water, or
by adding a 10 per cent solution of
sodium phosphate to 10 per cent of
the acid. A temperature between so
and 10 degrees Centigrade is recon-
mended.

TELLS ABOUT JOHN RANDOLPH
Thomas X. Benton Relates Interview
With Eccentric Man, In Which He
Depicts His Melancholy Mood.

Thomas 81. Benton in his Thirty
Years View" gives an interesting ac-
count Of an interview he had with the
eccentric John Randolph OF Roanoke.
The interview was at Mr.. Benton's
room in Crawford's Hotel. in George
town. 1t was In the gloom of the eve
ming, before the lamps were lit. Mr..
Randolph, reclining on soft, silent
and thoughtful, repeated, as If to him
self, Johnson's lines on "Senility and
nnbecility," that show his life under
its most melancholy form:
I'm life's last scenes what prodigieS
surprise,
Fears of the brave and follies of the
wise.
Down Marlborough's eyes the streams
of dotage flow,
And Swift expires a driveller and
show"
When Mr.. Randolph finished repeat
ing these lines, Mr.. Benton said to
him. "Mr. Randolph, / have often
heard you repeat these as if they could
have an application to yourself, while
no one can have less reason than your
self to fear the fate of Swift"
To this Randolph replied: 81 have
lived in dread of insanity"
While Randolph was not insane in
the ordinary sense Of the word, it is
certain that he had occasional tenn
pOrary alterations of the mind, and 1t
was during such times that his talk
was most brilliant, copious flow for
hours of wit and classic allusion, a
perfect scattering of the diamonds of
the mind.
His will was contested on the ground
Of insanity. but it was not set aside.

Four-Are Rainbow.

A four-arc rainbow was seen by a
vessel at sea recently, one pair inter
secting the other pair. Two arcs are
often seen on land, and three are some
times seen; bur the invariable rule is
that these arcs all have a common
center lying below the horizon. The
explanation of the two pairs of arcs
was, however, quite simple. The sea
at the time was exceptionally calm,
and acted as gigantic mirror. Two
of the arcs, which had common CEN
ter below the horizon. were due to the
sun itself; the other two arcs which
had common center above the hori-
zon, were due to the reflection Of the
sun in the sea.

PIT 1T BEFORE THE LEGISLATORS.

If the special committee representing local cINIr
and commercial bodies expects its plans for the new
city charter TO receive respect and support it should
work with the Oahu delegation in the coming egis
lature.
That delegation is holding frequent caucuSes and
conferences. Ii was in session IN Wednesday night
solely on the new charter Most of the Legislators
are busy men in their private affairs but they are
spending many nights and a large part of the days
c.nvassng proposed acts.
They aim-and rightly--to have these acts draft
ed into something like final form by the opening of
the legislature. The Oahu leaders determined
that they will hold their delegation united through
the session and get through the bills which Oahu
favOrs. For this reason they are thrashng ont
ideas beforehand, settling difficulties beforehand
getting through their controversies beforehand.
The special committee representing the Chamber
of Commerce, Commercial Club, Rotary Club, AID
Club and Civic Federation is working charter

legislature meets A veteran Oahu member. discuss
ing this situation, tells the Star Bulletin:
I'VE ought to have before us now the draft of this
special committees proposal. We are going ahead
with our own discussions, but We welcome advice,
assistance discussion from these representative men.
If they wait until the last minute to bring in their
charter it is likely to get detracked by unfore
seen things that force themselves to the front III the
