Use for Horsechestnuts.

The soapy nature Of the kernel of
the horseehestnut has led investigators
to search for a way to use 1t il remov-
ing dirt and grease from textile goods.
According to Les Matieres Grasses,
several methods of extracting this
soapy substance have been patented,
and, moreover, profitable uses have
been found for other constituents Of
the horsechestnut. The shell is rich in
tannin, and Is used in preparing ar ex-
tract for tanning leather. The kernel
contains about six and six-tenths per
cent of a pale yellow oil similar to all

tracted, the residue, treated with di-
lutte alcohol, yields an extract contain
ing about IS per cent of esculic acid,

ST. Anthony Needed a Bath.

AT a recent meeting of the confer
ence of sanitary inspectors ]. Tony
Thomas, chief sanitary inspector for
the Rhondda Valley, said that though
writings on health were among the
oldest in the world, sanitation for some
generations made slow progress. The
filthy habits of the hermits of the Mid
die Ages and of the early Christian
saints were practiced by the monks
or more recent eras. Indeed st. Je-
rome praised these habits of the her
mits, and especially commended an
Egyptian who combed his hair only on
Easter Sunday and never washed his
clothes. st. Anthony never washed
his feet, and Thomas a-Beckett, when
slain, had undergarments in such a
condition that n shuddered at the

this practice became so general over
