DISEASES LURK IX THE MILK PITCHER IWBtTTEX rOB THE DIsrATCH.j At the time when Hippocrates prescribed milkfordropsy.andtheGreekandtheKoman made butter lor external application only, milk, as now, was recognized as a valuable article ot food, second in importance only to bread. Indeed, milk has often super seded the staffof life as an article of diet a fact not to be'wondered at when it is con sidered that milk may be used without the intervention of unskilled cooks. In days when man's ingenuity had not supplied him with the endless variety of food stuffs which now wreck his stomach, milk in many cases Jormed all three courses of his dinner. Lone a?es belore the advent of the par venu milk shake, the Tartar was wont to quench his thirst and nourish his body with koumiss, a beverage differing chiefly (mm the milk shake in the fact that it con tains alcohol and much carbonic acid, the latter making it sparkle like champagne. In this connection it may be staled that the milk shake is wholesome enough if not par taken of too often. Milk is a iood, not a sim ple beverage, so when taken often it is apt to disarrange the stomach, just as frequent lunching would. WHAT 3IILK BEALLY IS. Chemically, milk consists of water, albumen, casneir, sugar, various salts, espe cially those of lime, and fat These in giedients, exclusive of the last, are dis solved in the water, while the fat is held in closed in little round cells or globules, vhinh mir lip Kppn under the microscope. and look like little transparent beads float ing around in the clear liquid portion of the milk. The fat they contain is butter, which, in the process "of churning. is lib erated bv the rupture ot the inclosing en velope, so that, strictly speaking, butter is not "made" but rather collected. The amount of fatty matter in a given quantity of milk varies greatly in different species of animals and in different individuals of the same species. The Holstein, Dur ham and similar cattle lurnish good, rich beef; but their milk is poor in tat, though the quantity of milk as a whole is large. On the other hand the Alderney, Jersey and the Guernsey are butter pro ducers, their milk containing comparatively an enormous percentage of fat. A phe nomenon in this respect has a record of 45 pounds and some ounces ol butter as the re sult ot milk produced in one week. "When it is considered that such a cow only weighs, herself, in the neighborhood of 500 or 600 pounds, it is seen that she produces her own weight, not in gold, but in golden butter in a period of a few months. Milk is a perfect food. This is a well known fact, but why it is so is not so gen erally known. The reason is this: It con tains' all the mineral and organic principles necessary to build up and repair the waste of animal tissues. WHT MILK SOUBS. The milk sugar which all milk contains is what gives the latter its sweet taste. "When milk sours this sugar is converted into lactic acid. This it is otten noticed that just belore becoming absolutely sour, milk loses its sweet taste, the sugar having become partly convened. The albumen is similar to the white ol egg and the casein is the cheesy matter. Condensed milk consists, or ought to consist, simply of milk Irom which a por tion ot the normally contained water has been removed, and to which sugar has after ward been added as a preservative. If properly made, it is wholesome and nutri tions, bcinc especially useful where Iresh milk is difficult to get in goocTcondition. The quality of milk varies greatly ac cording to various conditions, such as food, care and attention to the cow, her age, con dition of health and "freshness." Inde pendent of sophistication, milk varies to the greatest extent in the amounts of cream and of water present in it, and it is on this that the most usual and readiest tests of purity are based. Unfortunately, though, neither or these tests can be conveniently applied in the household. Milk is one of the most commonly sophis ticated articles of Iood on the market. The writer has examined 32 samples of milk taken from wasons and milk depots of the two cities. The result of t!ie examination is as follows: "WHAT A TEST SHOWS. Water in adulterative quantities found In 16 samples. A deficiency of cream found in the same sam ples. Starch found in one sample. Lead found in one sample. Chalk found in no sample. Annatto found in two samples. Salicylic acid found in one sample. Colostrum corpnscles found in one sample. Germs of consumption found in one sample. . Blood and pus corpuscles (matter) in one sample. "The cow with the iron tail" has long furnished the humorist with material for his monotonous grind, and, as a matter of lact, water is bv tar the most common adul teration, though it is not often added as pure water, hut renerally in the form of omui uijin, hujcu is ubeu u uuuie wnac is represented as whole milk. Skim milk is not often watered. An interesting point was raised on this question when, some years ago, a milkman in Allegheny distrib uted typhoid lever to nearly all the families he supplied. His well wan found to be the source of the disease germs, but, neverthe less, he had not watered the milk; the germs gained entrance into the cans when the lat ter were rinsed out with the well water, and they remained in with the few drops of water which adhered to the sides. These few were sufficient to do the deadly work, for they multiplied themselves by billions every 48 hours. The fact of the deficiency of cream in one- half of all samples examined is a rather start-) ling showing, and yet the estimation is based on a low standard requirement a lit tle lower than that of the milk of an aver age cow in good health. In four instances the quantity of fatty matter fell so low as to indicate the bluest kind of skim milk. In two of these instances the milk looked al most as rich as cream, but the color was due to annatto or cheese color. It is to the credit of the dairymen that this is not used even more, since it is kept in the house of a great many farmers and dairymen who use it to color butter with. The use of it in genuine butier is not repre hensible, sinoe it gives an appet.'zing ap pearance to a pure product, but when used in milk or cream it is with the object of selljng skim milk lor more than it is worth. Good cream or whole milk is alwavs yellow in proportion to its quality, while butter often is not, especially in winter time; hence the need of a coloring matter. The starch present in one sample had been cooked and was probably added to thicken what was really skim milk colored with annatto. The lead present in one in stance probably came from the solder or the tinning of the cans in which the milk had been transported. Chalk was not found, which fact maT somewhat surprise the comic writers who have for years gone great lengths in writing criticisms on chalky milk. DEATH IX THE MILK PITCHES. Salicylic acid found in one instance had probably been added to render possible the keeping of theniilk fora longer time than can usually be done. Its use, if long con tinued, it deleterious, and its addition to milk is very reprehensible, especially on account ot the large amount usually con sumed by tender infants. True, it is used in medicine, but only for short periods, and thst'niakes a great difference in regard to harmful effects. Common salt is injurious if partaken of freely for a long time. Colostrum it a peculiar state of the milk of a cow too fresh to yield a good product, and its presence in one sample cxamined-in-dicates that the milk man could not wait the proper interval before marketing the milk. The finding of bacilli, or germs, of con sumption in one instance is a serious matter. That the disease may be communicated to human beings who consume such milk, there can be no doubt; it is a fact now con ceded by the advanced thinkers and investi gators of the medical world to-day. It is probable in the above case that the cow her self had consumption, a disease to which cattle are particularly liable. The blood and pus" corpuscles present in one instance indicated inflammationand probably abscess of the milk glands of the cow a "Dealing" as it is commonly called. One can scarcely realize how a man could have so little idea of right and wrong as to knowingly market such a product. Six samples of cream, or what was sold as such, were examined, with the result of finding that five contained more than a rea sonable amount of skim milk, two of them not being cream at all. One of the latter two was simply whole milk as it came from the cow; the other, an ingenious compound of coloring matter and starch. Eight samples of butter were examined. Two were found to contain large quantities of water, in one cae amounting to 25 per cent. This is gross adulteration and an out rageous swindle, inasmuch as it is selling water at 26 cents per pound. It was evident ly incorporated purposely aiterthe butter was made. In one sample examined there were evidences of the presence of animal tats. This last butter sold for a little over half the prevailing price for the finest qual ity article. All the samples of butter ex amined contained more salt than warwhole some. On inquiry this was claimed by some of the butter makers to be necessary to pre vent earlv ranciauy ana aecomposiuuD; others said their customers liked it so; while one lone individual said it was to increase the weight of the butter. The writer leaves it to his readers to decide for themselves which answer is correct AS TO CHEESE. Ten samples of cheese were examined, but beside cheese flys and maggots, cheese mites and skippers, no serious impurities were found; little things like these are relished by the cheese eater, and probably do not hurt him. The worst feature about their presence is that they live at the expense of the nourishing constituents ot the cheese, which is consequently impoverished. One sample showed crystals rf fat foreign to the cheese, probably lard. "With the exception of two kinds, all the cheeses examined were artificially colored. This is claimed to be necessary in order to sell the product. This is strange, but it is probably true; though why some varieties must be painted to sell, while others are bought when of natural color is a mystery. A milk dealer and another individual, a mau who has sold cheese and butter all his life, both stated a few days ago that they knew their respective wares were sophisti cated, and they deplored it, but did not see how the matter could be remedied. But in view of the fact here demonstrated that milk and milk products are largely subject to sophistication, a remedy tor the evil becomes quite an important matter. In this connection may well be mentioned the experience ot a friend of the writer's. This gentleman started a retail milk establish ment. In endeavoring to pick up a patron age he found that he had some competitors in the business who could sell milk at the price he paid to the farmers for it himself. Many people refused to pay a little more for pure milk than they did lor a mixture of milk and water. There is good evidence that his milk was pure and that the cheaper milk was not This circumstance points a very obvious moral. There arc sufficient reasons for the asser tion that milk should not be allowed to stand longer in tin vessels than is unavoid able; crocks are the proper things, though not practicable for transportation of milk. Lead may exist in the enamel of crockery, but it is "in an insoluble condition. The greater facility with which crockery may be thorough!? cleaned is alone sufficient to recommend it Buttermilk especially should never be kept standing in a tin vessel. The writer has found small quanti ties of LEAD ET BUTTEE5IILK that had stood for several days in a tin milk can. The lactic acid had acted upon the lead in the tinning and solder, pro ducing the lactate of lead, which is soluble in an abundance ot water. Tinplate, of which cans are made, ougnt not to contain any appreciable quantities of lead, but as a matter of fact it contains four or five times as much lead as tin. "Whenever practicable it would be well to investigate the arrangements of the dairy supplying your milk, to see if the cows are sleek and well fed, stables clean and fre? from foul odors, etc. Dr. "Wood, ot this city.in a piper that was read before the Countv Medical Society,and which was published in full at the time in The Dispatch gave some excellent advice on this and other.allied points. In London 'it is, or was a few years ago, a common thing for cows to be driven through the streets to the door of the dairyman's cus tomers, where the lacteal fluid is withdrawn under the eye and immediate supervision of the purchaser. This is one very effective method of preventing sophistication of milk, though, on the whole, it is not to be recommended, because of the injury done to the cow and her milk by driving her through the streets. A better plan is to insist on having good, sweet, mild milk, which on standing yields a good layer of rich cream. You will have to pay a little more for it, but what is a cent or two a day when you are considering a matter of siek" ness or health? To save pennies on milk and spend dollars for the doctor is a good example of that homely old expression: "Saving at the spiggot and leaking at the bung. Chevalier Q. Jackson, M.

Interest Taken in the Art Exhibit in the Exposition Galleries. A GROWING APPRECIATION OPART Mention of Some of the More Important Paintings Displayed. GOSSIP ABOUT OUR LOCAL AETISTS The interest attaching to the art exhibit at the Exposition galleries shows no signs of abating, but seems rather to be increas ing day by day. This, however, so far from being a matter that need excite sur prise, is only what might reasonably be ex pected considering the character and extent of the display. "We have had many exhi bitions of pictures in this city at which were shown some splendid works, but never before has such a large number and such a great variety of paintings and drawings of an equal order of merit been gathered to gether under one roof and established under conditions so favorable to their inspection and study. Thafthis fret is appreciated by vast numbers ot intelligent and refined peo ple is fully evidenced by the crowds that daily throng the galleries, and it does not require a particularly keen observer to note that a very considerable proportion of the visitors exercise a nice discrimination be tween work which is masterly and that which is only mediocre. And this discrim ination in turn indicates that the taste m art of those for whom the galleries prove so attractive is refined, cultivated and intelligent No one can do justice to this display In ono or two hurried visits, and this fact is soon felt and appreciated by those who make the at tempt; the same persons mar often be seen repeatedly studying some of the more im portant pictures, thus proving that they fully realize the value of the opportunity afforded them by an exhibit of such unusual excellence. SOME NOTABLE PICTUEES. Although mention has already been made of many of the most noted works, still many others remain that are worthy of notice, as at each visit to the galleries something new and strik ing may be observed in pictures that were previously passed by without the attention which they merit. A work that should not be passed without no tice.and one that is likely to command attention through Its striking character and composi tion, even tbongh faulty in execution, if judged from a severely critical standpoint, is JSdw. Dondall's '"Last Interview Between Charles L and Oliver CromwelL" A rather pretentious picture, in which a fine conception has been but poorly carried out, is that entitled, "His Father Was a Soldier," a Dec oration Day group, by J. Harrison Mills. This picture is faulty In recard to the expression on the faces of the three persons composing the croup. An altogether pleasing and satisfactory painting is the one called "The Old Manse," by Walter Katterlee. This picture represents two young girls arranging some flowers in a room of an old-fashioned mansion. The color is very agreeable, and the texture of the drapery is particularly well rendered. The "Frosty Slorning." by Hamilton Hamilton, is a fine work In a free, but effective style of ex ecution. A work beautifnl in color and unique in the stvle of its comnosition is the "Good Morning," by Edward Morau. Miss Bertha von HUlern's work, "fit. Paul the First Her mit." shows a deplorable lack of technical skill. Whatever may be said of its conception and composition in these particulars it has received much praise it can hardly be said to possess any technical excellence whatsoever. A point ing somewhat faulty in drawing, but which probably conveys a very fair idea of the char acter of the scene depicted, is the "At Bay," by F. S.' Dellenbauzh. The work represents a Navajo Indian brought to bay among the rocks. "A Chapter From the Koran" is the title of a strong work by William Sartain, showing a picture of life and manners, far removed irom anything with which we are familiar. John W. Cassiliar's "Genesee Valley After Bain" shows a fine effect of sky and distance. Mr. C. S. Kifpatrick's '"Grandma" deserves notice from its being a creditable work by one of the younger ot our local artists. SOME CUBIOUS VISITOBS. Of course one visits the galleries with his eyes open, but the sense of hearing is also sometimes made the medium through which he becomes cognizant of many amusing inci dents transpiring around him. Among the throngs which frequent the galleries there are always some to whom a painting is a mystery. Persons of this class are wont to give vent to their amazement in very characteristic lan guage, and in tones which are distinctly audible even at a considerable distance. It is a great cause of astonishment with them that the works which they see before them are the re sults of the working of the human hand and the human brain, and they can scarcely realize thatsucb works can be produced without tbestid of machinery. To their unsophisticated minds it seems reasonable to suppose that man might construct a machine to do any kind of work which he desired, however intricate or compli cated it might be, but that he can do the same work himself they deem incredible and at times refuse to believe. More than one such innocent has been heard to assert while stand ing before some masterpiece of art that "It wasn't never hand-made," or "hand-painted." as the case might be. To such persons a little hit of realism will appeal with far greater force than the grandest productions of genius, and they are filled with open-mouthed wonder hen they learn that what appears to be glass in Mr. King's "Bad Break" is not glass but paint, and their admiration knows no hounds when thev discover that the flies upon the "Peaches" do not flutter their wings when touched. One of these characters, a long, lank cadaveious looking individual with a straw hat, top boots and a beard of the typical hayseed cut, stood before Benoni Irwin's "La Impro visatrice" and gazing long and earnestly at a fly that bad settled upon the picture, at length reached up with his huge cotton um brella and touched it, unable to discern the difference between the representation and the reality. Surely If one fails to find sufficient matter of interest upon the walls of the galle ries be might spenu his time pleasurably and not altogether unprofltably in studying the character of some of the visitors. Pictures and Painter. A sttjdt in oil of a basket of pansles, the work of Miss McCartan, is shown at Young's. Mb. a. F. King is industriously working upon a number of his small studies in water colors. A Fallen Tower, Heidelberg," is the sub ject of a sketch which Miss Rayner exhibits at Young's. THF late Mr. Josenh W. Drexel, of New York, has been credited with the statement that counterfeits of Corot's pictures might easily be secured at prices ranging from S260 to 1300. The small water color which Mr. H. S. Ste venson has placed on view at Mayer's is ouo of the best works of its kind which he has ye shown. In refinement of color and composit sion, particularly the latter, it is not surpassed by any work be has, ever produced. Several water colors by M. Bennett, M. Degraff and F. Baer are on exhibition at Boyd's.The works by the two first mentioned ar tists, consisting of marine views, are very pleasant pictures, but the landscape by Baer is rather weak in color, and somewhat stilted and careless in drawing. Miss Madge Irvin is at present endeavor- lng to faithfully represent upon canvas some of nature's changeiul moods, Tne scene of her labors is close to Steubenville, O., whither she has been attracted by some glowing ac counts sent her of the beauties of the scenery at this time of the year when the brilliant greens of summer have become somewhat sobered and subdued, and before the trees have pnt on their brilliant autumnal tints. It is her intention to return home about the last of the month. The work of Julian Eix is becoming very well known in this vicinity through the various methods of reproduction, of which etching seems to be the one most frequently adopted. The name of W. L. Lathrbp is also becoming familiar to art lovers as an etcher of works by RIx, and, if the number of proofs from his plates shown in this city is any criterion to judge by, both artist and etcher seem to be receiving the appreciation that is well merited by the skill and talent shown in their productions. The latest of these etchings exhibited here, which may now be seen at Boyd's, is entitled "Warneque."
