gredient in seaWeed was found.
Bernard Curtois was gunpowder
manufacturer to Napoleon. The
method used to make saltpeter was
by adding seaweed to decomposed
calcium nitrate, in copper watts. The
method was expensive, for in time
the copper watts became diseolored
and finally eaten away. Curtols
tried to find out why this was, and
eventually isolated from seaweed a
metalloid product which gave OH
purplish vapor. This was iodine,
and it was early found that 1t had
medicinal properties.
Iodine's Modern Use Accidental
When iodine was found to be
constituent of the thyroid gland,
it was plain why it was operative
in goiter. Its modern use in goiter
is due to an accident. DR.. Trous-
seau of Paris saw woman with
the rapid heart. and palpitation of
goiter and wrote a prescription OF
tincture Of digitalis for her. The
next time he saw her, she was so
improved that he examined the bot
tie of medicine again and found ne
had written "tincture Of iodine" by
mistake.
Iodine is used in many conditions
-tunnor formations, called gum
mata. are dissolved under it's use.
It is also valuable in asthma and
arthritis.
Besides all these properties, 1t is
one of the best antiseptics we have.
Davaine, French chemist, showed,
in 1873, that animal tissue proteins
are not coagulated by IODINE wnlcn

contract was impossible if he lost
three tricks in the trump suit.
With all of the top three honors

finding two of those in the West
