Next this mixture is boiled with caustle soda, a chemical resulting from the union of hydrogen and soda, and technically known as a hydrate of that element.

Such product is now sold by ev, cry drug store as an internal lubricant.
 When tha chemist starts with a bright pure oil. he can undoubt- edly produce most edible subSu- tute for butter.
 Butter substitutes are legion. The best known of them is the oieomargarine, which is a chemi- cally pure mixture of animal oils and stearin. Butterine is oleomar- garine favored with real butter. Both of these products are made under gogernment supervisor and are accepted as valuable foods.
 Theoretically, the way is open , for the production of food ad- junct of great economic value. Chemistrysin a Transition State Industrial chemistry is in state of transition. The impossible of the present becomes the in evitable of the future. It was only @ short while ago that the mole cule was regarded as indivisible vet, in the chemistry of petroleum alone, this belief has been repeat edly shattered. By the cracking of molecules of kerosene, the sup ply of gasoline, in this country, has been appreciably increased.
 By treating oils obtained from cotton seed, cocoanuts and pea nuts, with hydrogen gas in the presence of nickel or iron. hard fats result which are acceptable substitutes for lard. Petroleum butter may take it's place with these lard substitutes, and come to be regarded as a household necessity. while the bovine varie- ty will pass into the list of lux uries.
 There are very good reasons, as pr. Egloff has pointed cut, why the use of fats from petroleum r will some day be considered a !. matter of prime importance.

A Problem for the Chemist

Petroleum Is a hlSnlS CoHlpieN liouid composed chie1ly or hyuro- gen and carbon in chemical com bination. Hence chemists call pet roleum a hydro carbon" Many or our foods, including butter, are also combinations of hydrogen and carbon-but different. Nou can build with brick hundreds or houses that bear architectural resemblance to one another; you can build up from hydrogen and carbon atoms thousands of sub stances as different as coal-tar dyes and potatoes.
 So this problem of making good butter out of vile oil that oozes from the earth resolves itself into rearrangement Of Its atoms. That is not an easy problem; for petroleum is composed of some thirty different chemical com pounds classed as hydro cartoons, and is impregnated, besides, with soluble nitrogen and sulphur. We have many hydro -carbons that are good to eat, such as the starch which is an important constituent of wheat and corn and potatoes.
 Butter is d solid fat consisting of a group of acids. Of these acids the principal one is called put ric" acid It is made by agitating or beating milk so as to break up the globules of fat and to bring them into a solid mass. The prob lem of the chemist is to change the hydropcarbon of petroleum into the pleasing acid of good creamery butter.
 Hydro -carbons consist of hydro gen and carbon. The first step in the transformation is to 'chlori- nate" the petroleum This is done by forcing chlorine into it by an electric current which is turned on while it is confined in closed mixing vessel. The chlorine com pines with atoms of hydrogen and produces hydrochloric acid and chlorides of the hydro cartoons.

CAN'T ESCAPE A CAPE
Subtle Appeal in Springy, Clingy
Goods, Says Margaret Robe.
(BY MARGARET ROHE.)

(BY MARGARET ROHE)
Yom can't escape cape, my dear.
She made herself some swagger ones
OF all the choicest leaves.
And when the leaves began to fall
And bushes also mantled her
When with the apple caught.
Her mantle fad's descended now
ON modish maids today,
Tho just a trifle thicker are
Their fabrics, l should say.
New York, March 29.-The spring
maid is all wrapped up in capes as
voluminously as her predecessor,
Madame Winter. No matter how she
tries she can't seem to get out from
| under the graceful folds. The only
| difference between the winter and
spring models is that those folds have
dwindled from the heavy richness of
fur, velour and duvetyn to the spring,
clingy lightness of serge, satin, wool
jersy or tricotine.
If we follow old Omar's admonition
and fling our winter garment of re-
| pentence in the fires of spring it will
| only be to don another exactly SINH
| lar in cut and style.
OF course the spring capes have
| some new and novel touches to bring
them up to date, such as embroidery
| characterization. scarf collars ending in
swishing tassels. patch pockets and
| button excrescences jutting out in
nobby designs.
A perfect jewel of a model is of
pearl gray Jersey with a deep soft
cape collar edged in wide band of
| black silk braid. The wide braid also
finishes the slashes for the arms and
a vivid lining of orange and black
checker board satin shows free and
| uncheckered when the wind blows.
A smart draped cape of black taft
| feta has one of the deep soft collars
| also. which is edged with a wide
| fringe of long narrow taffeta ribbon
loops, as is also the bottom of the
4 cape. The lining of this distinctive
model is a vivid apple green silk crepe.
| fruitfully sprinkled with cherry polka
dots and plum-hued dashes.
Almost all of the cape Innings strike
| such a gay, joyous and riotous color
note that they seem to indicate the
real inner nature of their fair wear
ers. A demure young thing, closely
swathed from her throat to her
pointed toe in the enveloping folds of
a navy blue serge cape, surely reveals
| her true inner self when she throws
| back the cape and unfurls the JOY of
the Mandarin red lining. that hectic
new shade which is a brighter, lighter.
| younger sister to henna red and a first
cousin to burnt orange.
| Sort of a summer evolution of the
cape are the new old mid-Victorian
| scarfs which are to cling to fair Shout
| ders again with all the elusive grace
and piquant charm of the clinging vine
| pre-suffrag era.
Quaint crepe de chine ones with
woven figured borders on either end
| come in pastel tones. lovely, cloudy
| chiffon ones with printed borders of
| roses and garlands, exquisite lace ones
of filmy black Chantilly or the creamy
silky meshes of the Spanish mantilla.
gay Bayadere striped ones of Roman
| silk, and saucy little taffeta ones in
| black. gray or blue, lined with a con-
| trasting light color and self fringed
| all around They are all irresistible.
