WON'T KILL MICROBES.
Amongst many popular fallacies none, per haps is more pernicious or more tenaciously. Held than that addition of spirits to water "kills "the insects in it." While some doubt is eater- tained as to the character of plain water, yet all risk of swallowing germs is supposed to be avoided by drinking the water plus an addition of whisky or other spirit. In other words, the whisky is assumed to sterilise the water and to make it germ-free. It does nothing of the kind. Some organisms, and certainly their spores, will live in alcohol of senrly 75 per cent. sirength, which is considerably over the strength of most spirits consumed. The common alcoholic strength of whisky is about 40 per cent, of brandy 42 per cent., and of rum not usually more than 50 per cent.
Even supposing, therefore, that these spirits are consuined "neat" no security from germ life would necessarily be gained. It is quite certain that microbes can live and thrive in the ordinary mixed drink of whisky-and-water, the average amount of alcohol in a tumblerful of whisky-and-water, in the proportion usually adopted, being not more than to or 11 percent. Bacteriological investigations have shown that most germs are not affected by a liquid contain Ing 33 per cent, of alchol, whilst their correspond. ing spores are unharmed in 83 percent. alcohol. Alcoholic drinks therefore cannot be regarded as effectual destroyers of microbe life, and, further, bacteria after a time seem to get accustomed to alcoholand to become proof against any antisep tic action that it originally may have possessed. But whisky is often mixed with minemi or aerated water, and in this case there is another factor to deal with-namely, carbonic acid gas. dis- There is no doubt that carbonic acid gas solved under pressure in water has a marked antiseptic action, for aerated waters have been found in many cases to be sterile. It would appear, however, that the germicidal action of the gas is slow, and thus the natural mineral waters in which the gas has been in very long contact with the water are more likely to be germ-free than freshly and artificially impreg nated waters. It is probable that it is not carbonic acid gas that is per se destructive to germs, but, the definite compound which i farms with the water-namely, true carbonic acids are germicides, and in many respects water which is highly charged with carbonic acid gas behaves as a mineral acid. The high. ly resistant anthrax bacillus and its spore are not, however, affected by carbonic acid, but according to the results of several scientific inquiries the gas in mineral waters is certainly destructive to the pathogenic bacteria-as, for example, these of typhoid fever and cholera. It would be rash, however, to place confidence in either alcohol or carbunic acid as 'safeguards against pathogenic organisms or to regard whisky-and-water as safer than plain water, while the addition of snda-water is not neces- sarily to be relied u, on to remove, bacterial taim, Lancet.
GERMAN LIFE-SAVING.
APPARATUS.
|
A new life-saving apparatus (says a writer in the Scientific American) is being introduced into Germany. It consists of a buoy of globu. lar form and carrying from two to four life belts, and supports n long cylinder of sheet rin baving twelve compartments | filled with carbide of calcium. These com partments are arranged at different elevations. When the apparatus is thrown into the sea, the water passes through perforations in the bottom of the cylinder, and, coming in contact with the carbide, generates acetylene gas. Each compart. ment is connected witha burner by a pipe, valves preventing the escape of gas except through the burner. When the volume of gna decreases hydrostatic pressure opens the valves and allows water to penetrate into the next compartment to generate an additional supply of gas. The gas is lighted electrically, and ignition takes place About twenty-five seconds after the buoy is. thrown into the sea. The light produced is equal to 150 candle-power, and the flame is protected from the wind by glass and burns steadily with great intensity for three or four hours. requires only a few minutes to clean and refill the apparatus.
PERSIAN-CARPET LIONS AND
TIGERS.
Mr. Walter Crane and Mr. Lewis F. Day, in the Art Journal for July, ronduct an amusing. conversation concerning the propriety of ani- mals in design, and this friendly dispute is of particular domestic interest. All of us, for instance, bave trodden on carpets so horrid ja pattern our only satisfaction lies in the spurn. ing of it; while every one has experienced the delight of contemplating a material woven into refreshing and harmonious design. "Homan and anipal forms are as often as not a disturb ing influence in repealed pattern," says Mr. Day: "why use them there?" Because," replies Mr. Walter Crane, "their forms give. me certain lines and masses decoratively valuable and not obtainable by other means." "As to lions and tigers on a Persian carpet," says Mr. Day, horrified at the thought of his drawing-room being changed into a Noah's Ark or Zoological Gardens, "I can't endure them; there is too much suggestion of a men agerie Mr. Crane and Mr. Day thus cham pioning their own cause might aptly in this case be called carpet-knights. Illustrations ́accompany the dialogue.
