Dr. Constantine Fal?borg, tin- in ventor ?ir discoverer of BOXMuuuine, the new coal tar sugar, is a tall, well-built, handsome Oerman-Ami rican, of about thirty-eight years of ago. 1 le speaks tho modern languages fluently, and despite the celebrity that has so suddi lily fallen upon him, is quito diffident and re sirvcd. To an unpining reporter, who had called upon him for the express pur pose of conversing with him on tlu- UOw swietening agent, he said: "How did I discover saccharine'/ Will, it was partly hy accident and partly hy study. 1 had worked a lon:,' tllUO upon tho compound radicals and substitution products pf coal tar. and had nimio a number of scientific discoveries th* are, so far as I know, of in? commercial value. One evening I was so interested in my laboratory that" 1 forgot about supper until quito lato, and theil lushed oil'for a meal without stopping to wash my hands. 1 sat down, broke a piece of bread, and nut it to my lips. lt tasted unspeakably sweet. I did not ask why it was so, probably because, 1 thought it was some cake or sweetmeat. I rm fed my mouth with water, and dried my moustache with my napkin, when, to my supriso, thc napkin tasted sweeter than the bread. Then 1 was puzzled. 1 airain raised my goblet and, as fortune would have it, applied my mouth where my lingers had touched it before. Thc water seemed ayrttp. Jt Unshed upon mo that 1 was the cause ol' the universal Sweetness, and I accordingly tasted tia end of my thumb, and found that it sur passed any confectionery I had over ?aten. I saw the whole thin;: at a .ulai.ce. J had discovered or nuuk sumo al tar substance which OUt-SUgUTcd .a; ar. i dropped my dinner, and ran back to tho laboratory. There, in my exciteim nt, 1 tasted the contents of every beaker and ovaporating dish on thc table. Luckily for me, none contained any corrosive or poisonous liquid. "One of them contained an impure .solution of saccharine. On this 1 worked then for weeks and months until 1 had determined its chemical composition, its characteristics and reactions, ami the best modes of making it scientifically and commercially. When I first pub lished my researches, somo people laughed as if it wire a scientific joke: others, of a more skeptical turn, deni ?ted the discovery and the discoverer, and still others proclaimed the work as being of no practical v alue. When tile pul die Amt saw saccharine, however, everything changed. The entire press, l.uyopoaii and American, described mc and my sugar in a way that may have been edify ing, lnit was simply amusing tn i ie. And then came letters. My mail btu run as high as sixty a day. i'copk wanting samples of accluu'ino, my auto graph, or my opinion on chemical problems, desiring to become my part ner, to luiy my discovery, to he my agent, to enter HIV laboratory ami tin. uko. A WONDBliFUL St'CCKSS. "What have 1 dono? I have started a company in Germany to mnnufucturi saccharine, with a capital of 2,UUO,U0< marks. They are already et work, ami are now producing tia- new sugar. Il costs, or rather we sell it, between ."Ml and 812 per pound, but will redueothes? ligures considerably before a y ear lue gone past, ? w oulil rather have startei in this country, which is my home, lui thc high price ol' skilled labor, and tin high tar?ii On thc crude materials (fini chemicals) of which saccharine is made deterred me and my friends fruin si doing. 1 will say, howOVCr, that if ap plied chemistry continues progressing a it has done in the past d?cade, we sha! open branch works lai? within the OCX live years." Saccharine is proving a wonderful sue cess. It is used already in many ways lt is employed by tin- makers of glucosi and beet sugar. Tin SO an- inferior ii sweetness to cano sugar, but superior ii digestibility and healthfulness. The ad ditton of a trilling fraction of saccharin makes them the . ipials of tin- lined cale sugar in the market. Saccharine is M sweet that a teaspoonful converts a bal rel of water into syrup. A small wah of it converts the bitterest quinine sohl tion or neill drink into a regular moho ses. lt will, therefore, be invnluabl in disguising and destroying all the bit ter a nt tour taste;- in medicine witina: chancing tho character or action nf th drugs. Saccharine dm s not decay, mould o ferment, neither is it attacked h bacteria, lt has no injuriousciTcel ItpOl the human system. What CiYeCt ha been noticed is rather beneficial thai otherwise. This immunity from deco, will render it of great utility. Wier sugar is used ns a flavor and not as food, it is bound to be replaced by pac ellarine; where as a food ami liavor ct .ir. bined, it will not be. In Hie futur' tb new sugar will be used by druggist* physicians, bakers, confectioners, cond, makers, bo?tiers, preserve and piokl makers, liquor distillers, wino milker and dealers in bottlers' supplies.

Toluene is firsl kcal od with sulphuric acid of 108j dign e Twmhlcll, but, not above Inn degrees C After all thc original toluene has disip poarcd, tho mixturo is run into ivoodoi tanks partly tilled with cold wator, when it is stirred np with chalk. The mas: thus iieiitnili/.ed is Mitered through i press; and the calcium salts are trciitci with sodium carbonate, with anothoi nitration fi Mowing. The solution of tin Sodium suits thus obtained ls evaporaba mid thc solid residue dried by steaii heat. This material is then mixed v. it I phosphorus trichloride, and treated ,\it! . a current hf chlorine, Certain residual: aro then driven off, and tho apparat tu contains two sulphouic chlorides om ; olid and tho other liquid. Only th? lutter is capable of yielding saccharine This is now separated, mixed with solii ammonium carbonate, and steamed After some further mechanical trent mont, the liquid i.s oxidized by potaSSi nm permanganate, and, finally, the pur stte?nnrine is precipitated by dilute min oral acids, it hus a far sweeter tust titan sugar, and a faint, delicate flavor O .bitter aTmoiulfl.
