IF GLUCOSE is IN JELLY
Method by Which It Is DetectedIs
Simple and of Exceedingly Easy
Application.

Glucose in fruit preserves may be
discovered by the following method
given by the Popular Science Monthly:
In the case Of jelly teaspoonful
should be dissolved in two tablespoon
fuls Of alcohol cantained in glass
vessel. In the case of jam or MARINA
lade the same process is carried out.
but 1t Is necessary to filter off the solid
matter by running the mixture through
a piece Of muslin. Allow the solution
to become perfectly cool and then add
an equal volume, or a little more, Of
strong alcohol.
If glucose is present dense white
precipitate slowly settles down. Where
no glucose has been employed there Is
no precipitate, save, in some cases, a
very trifling sediment Of proteid mat
ter which, however, is so small that
it could not possibly be mistaken for
the sediment which glucose produces.
The last named Is not particularly
harmful in itself, but it is very fire.

1t Didn't Pay.

The poets and others, mainly others,
have sung Of the virtues and blessings
Of sleep. No class of men guards sleep
as carefully as the doctors.
Some one, with all the wise theories
Of advertising, decided to mail his lit
tie call for business to the medical
men of Indianapolis. He spent large
sum getting up some real snappy stuff.
He figured out all the psychology and
personal appeal, with all of the big "P'
stuff he could, and then some. He laid
plans to reap a harvest. He did-not.
His good money went to the printer.
More went to Uncle Sam for stamps.
This wise ad writer put special de-
livery stamp on each Of his letters.
Result: The doctors Of Indianapolis
were awakened about 1 a. m. to sign
for a bunch Of printed matter. Every
doctor seen says he tore up the booklet
and with curses deposited the unread
pieces in the waste-paper basket or
elsewhere.
With groans and harsh words the
medical men went back to bed. 1t was
a great idea.-Indianapolis News.

Praised for Devotion to Duty.

When the city of Norfolk, Va, was
threatened with the complete destruc-
ton by fire of its thriving business
section early in January, every avail
able fire-fghting force at hand and
from nearby towns was called into the
battle. At the height of the fire the
enlisted men of the United States
navy on duty at the navy yard and in
the harbor were called on to help not
only in subduing the flames but con-
trolling the crowds. To a man they
gave q splendid account of themselves.
Among these men was John Joseph
Mclaughlin, chief boatswain's mate.
Although he had worked all night. had
narrow escapes and was drenched to
the skin with ice-cold water, McLough-
lin declined q relief when it was Of
fered and remained on duty continu-
ously until the danger was passed.
For this conspicuous service he has
been commended by Secretary Of the
Navy Daniels. Mclaughlin enlisted
in the navy in 1908 at New York.

Aesop on Russia.

About $500 years ago slave named
Aesop, one Of the masters Of literature,
wrote, or perhaps dictated, our edi-
torial for this week on Russia.
At least he is reputed to have done
so.
1t is as follows:
"'Why should there always be this
implacable warfare between us? said
the Wolves to the Sheep. Those evil
disposed Dogs have much to answer
for. They always bark whenever we
approach you and attack US before we
have done any harm. If you would only
dismiss them from your heels there
might soon be treaties Of peace be-
tween u.s.

Thy Will. Not Mine.

Thomas Carlyle lost great deal of
belief, but he never lost his belief in
tie Divine Providence, and when the
first volume of his work on the French
revolution was burnt through a friends
careleSsness and he had no notes
wherewith to re-write it, this is what
he wrote in his diary:
"Oh, that l had faith, oh that l had
It: then there is no burden too heavy
to be borne, and no task too difficult
for me to attempt"

first general hospital was chartered in

hospital in Philadelphia. Joshua Cros-

had been prominent in urging the es-
