It has been objected that by the Bergius process only a small percentage of lighter oils a prode and that the solids dissolved in the auxiliary bodies must be changed into real liquid, hydrocarbons by an additional process. So far it has not been stated whether it has been found possible to devise a method by which this additional treat ment may be carried par in an economi eat manner, but from the fact that a large plaat for Berginsing coal is now being Preeted in Mannheim, and that the patents have been sold to a large Franco- Belgian group, it may be concluded that the efforts made to apply the process in a large stalo a technical manner on have had a satisfactory result.

This treatment has not been tried out on a commercial scale, but it is so simple in itself that it should not present any technical difficulties.

This method opens up new prospects for making economical use of coal. The coal should preferably be freed from its volatile matter, either by the normal cok ing process or by low temperature coking. The fir obtained should be the pro- Eightest open-air Temperature of

A SHIP'S MEDICINE CHEST. BRANDY, CORKS, ICE BAGS AND THROAT MIRRORS.

The Hoard of Trade has issued revised liste of the medicines and medical stores. which merchant ships will be required to carry as from July 1st, 1925. This is the first time the lists have been revised for more than 12 years, and the progress in medical treatment that has been made in the meantime is partially reflected in the new lists.

Among the drugs which-on the advice of the Royal Colleges of Physicians and Surgeons and the Pharmaceutical Society which the Board consulted-are to be included among the medical stores of ships having 100 or more persons on board and which are therefore required to carry" a doctor, are the following:-

Adrenalin-a drug frequently used in rdiac failure and to arrest bleeding. Emetine-a specific in the treatment of dysentery.

Extract of pituitary gland-which has proved valuable in shock and collapse.

Cocaine, bexamine, and salol. Additions to the medical stores include hot-water bottles, ice bags, throat mirrors, ear syringes, and enough sterilised dress ing for one major operation.

The two principal fiats, which previous ly applied to emigrant vessels only, are co and after July 1st to be extended to all merchant ship's required to carry medical practitioners. The quantities of all drugs and accessories to be carried are specified, even the number of medicine bottles, corks, and ointment-boxes Being laid down. All quantities vary, bow- ever, according to the number of per- sons on board and the length of the voyage. Among the medical comforts" to be carried are arrowroot, semolina, condensed milk, and brandy, the quantity of the last named being one gallon per 100 passengers and crew.

Novels with problems make me tired. Mr. Bellor.

Destroy the millionaire and you rob the working man of his choicest idol-Mr. Stacy Aumanier.
