Laboratory experiments have shown that frozen pork can be exported from Australia and New Zealand and manuâ€" factured into bacon in this country. This discovery has already achioved results, and the report states that a considerable number of frozen carâ€" cases are now being used in this counâ€" try for conversion into bacon. Search for microâ€"organisms which can flourish in cold storage has led to the discovery of a particular organism which amits a strong musty odor capâ€" able of tainting foodstuffs, particularâ€" ly fat and eggs, at a considerable disâ€" tance. The Board‘s report is interesting in showing the vast amount of work done in examining food supplies from all parts of the world. __It is gratifying to note that, of all theâ€" types of apples examined by the Board, the English Bramloy‘s Seedâ€" ling has the highest Vitamin C conâ€" tent, while, at the same time, it loses only a small proportion during storâ€" age.

The opportunity for philos ophy under the starry sky must be unique. A night watchman (relates Mrs. Hughes) has just been sued for the return of two books borrowed from a public library â€" Rinstein‘s "Rela tivity" and Bloxham‘s "Chemistry."

The friendly spirit shown by Lom don shopkecpers is proverbial Not long ago Mrs. Hughes went into a 1#» tle grocer‘s shop. No behavior in London, warns Mre. Hughes, is viler than to look over your neighbor‘s paper, except to hold your own paper so that your neighbor can‘t see it. Park Lane, London, has always stood for the quintessence of aristoc racy and exclusiveness, and there is a joke (chuckles Mrs, Hughes) about a red socialist knocking at one of the houses and shouting to the footman: "The revolution is here!" only to be met with a chilling reply: "All revoluâ€" tions must be delivered at the trades men‘s entrance."

In one of the scenes, the tenor had to throw Calve, as Santuzza, violently to the floor. The sonsitive Princess burst into tears. "I don‘t want him.to hurt the lady," she wailed in such a loud voice that every one turned and looked at her. "As I came off the stage," recalls Calve, in her rominiscences, "I heard the future Queen being thoroughly scolded by her governess." Only a short time ago, Calve met the Queen of Spain (now Duchess of Toledo). Herbert Spencer, the philosopher, deemed it his duty to combat on the instant every erroncous statement, false reasoning or foolish opinion ; and this led to frequent homilies, says James HMoward Bridge, Spencer‘s priâ€" vate secretary for five years.
