SOME BI TTER TESTS MtTHOOS BY WHICH TO DISTINGUISH THE GENUINE ARTICLE. Tbs l as at PraaerxatUaa With Frack Maat—4 olnrlaa Matlar la Maar aaoaaaea—How to Dalael Horlr A<-I<i th Meat I'roducta. It is a mutter of common information that oleomargarine t» aotuetlniM •übatltuted for butter nud that rancid nnJ badly made butter Is (n-quvtitly melted, washed with s-aln and churned with milk for the preparation of renovated or process butter. Methods are available which, with n little practice, may lx- employed to distiuguiah iH-tvuen fresh butter, renovated or process butter and oleomargarine. The "spoon" teat has been sugg<*st«'d as a li.ai-ehihl test and Is commonly used bj aualyticni chemists for dlstlugubdmiK fresh butter ii renovated butter or oleoimirgarlue. A lump of butter tw > or three times the sice of a pea Is placed iu a large apoou and it Is then h< ated over an alcohol burner. If more convenient, the spoon may bo held above the chimney of an ordinary kenwene lamp, or it may even tie field >vei an ordinary illuminating gas burner. If the sample In question lie frwb butter it will tioll quietly with the evolution of a large number of small bubbles throughout the mass which produce a large amount of foam. Oleomargarine ami process butter, on the other hand, sputter mid crinkle, making a noise similar to that heard when a greeu stick is placed in a tire. Another point of distinction Is noted If a small portion of the sample is placed in a small bottle and set iu a vessel of water sutfii iently warm to melt the sample. The sample is kept nwlted from half an hour to au hour, when it Is examined. If renovated butter or oleomargarine, the fat will be turbid, while if genuine, fresh butter the fut will almost certainly be entirely clear. To manipulate what is known as the Waterhouse, or milk, test about two ounces of sweet milk is placed iu a wide mouthed bottle, which is set in a vessel of boiling water. When the milk Is thoroughly heated a teaspoonful of butter is added and the mixture stirred witli a splinter of wood until the fat is melted. The bottle is then placed in a dish of ice water and the stirring continued until the fat solidities. Now, if the sample be butter, either fresh or renovated, it will be soliditied in a granular condition and distributed through the milk in small particles. If, on the other hand, the aampie consists of oleomargarine it solidities practically In one piece and may be lifted by the stirrer from the milk. Many persons believe that the great mass of the fresh meat sold on the market is preserved chemically. Tills impression is entirely unfounded. The cold storage facilities of the present day make the use of preservatives with fresh meat unnecessary, and the larger packing bouses do not employ them. It sometimes happens that local butchers sprinkle preservatives over a cut of meat in order ttiat they may keep it exposeil on the blix k or hanging in a show window us an advertisement. The use of chemical preservatives with fresh meat is confined to this practice alone. Preservatives are very commonly used with chopped meats and sausages, especially fresh sausage. They are always ernphiytsl with cannixl Vienna and Frankfurter sausages inclosed in casings with the ends tied. Where the ends are cut preservatives may be absent. The reason for tills is that the teiujierature required for the complete sterilization of sausages will either burst or distort the skins when the ends are thil, whereas sausages with cut ends afford an opportunity for the escape of the water ami steam.

With many varieties of sausages, both frosh and smoked, and with chopped meats of all descriptions, coloring matter is sometimes employed. This I* done partly for the purpose of satisfying an unnatural demand for a high colonsl article and partly sometimes to conceal the grayish color characteristic of old meat, which should not be used at all. The preservatives employed with meat products are boric acid, borax and sulphites. To detect boric arid about a tablespoonful of the chopped meat is thoroughly macerated with a little water, pressed through a bag and two or three tablespooufuls of the liquid placet in a sauce dish with fifteen or twenty drops of strong hydrochloric acid for each tnblespoouful. The liquid is then filtered through filter paper and a piece of tumeric paper dipped into It and dried near a lamp or stove. If boric arid or borax were used for preserving the sample the tumeric paper should be changed to a bright cherry red color. If too much hydrochloric arid has been employed a dirty brownish red color is obtained, which Interferes with the color due to the presence of boric acid. Now, if a drop of household ammonia tie added to the colored tumeric paper and it turns a dark green, almost black color, then boric ucld is present. If the reddish color, however, was caused by the use of too much hydrochloric ucid, this green color does not form. The corrosive nature of hydrochloric acid must not be lost sight of. It must not be allowed to touch the flesh, clothes or any metal.—New York Tribune. ■ e Asked For It. "Do you know that the coin you lent me was a counterfeit?" said the habitual borrower. "Oh, sure I do. You said that you heeded It bad." A person suffering from chronic rheumatism should avoid dried flsh, cooked .oysters, pork, veal and turkey.
