A photo. micrograph is then taken with a magnifying power of 60 to 2,000 bameters. The picture shows steel like a rook with various minerals | distributed through, it, and the iron, earlon and their different mixtures are easily recog wired.

It was suspecter that the injurious effects might be connected with the poverty of horsallesh in fatty matter, but the addition of horsefat did not lesson the intostjual disturbance, although the fat of matton, beef, or pork socmed to have antitoxic action, aud made- the horseflesh barmless. To render this meat wholesome, therefore, it is recommended to cook with half an bunes of the kidney fut of beef or matton for such pound, the meat being alea boiled and the water thrown away.

The idea of combining many pictures in one composite photograph, so as to get a type face, was brought out nearly twenty years ago by Francis Galton, F.R.S., who has now devised the opposite plan of analytical portraiture, in which it is sought to record what is individual" in the expression by combining different photo. graphs of the same face. Two portraits, for xample, many slow a man with normal expres sion and when he is smiling.
