\Vi;l they call it beefsteal<aline? It
begins with peptines and peptones.
Peptones are decomposition products of
albumen and a result of the action of
certain re -agents found in the pancrea-
tic glands and ]mown as ferments, which
decompose albumen. This decomposi-
tion is a physiological procass known
to the lay mind as digestion. Without
peptones the albumen which forms a
large percentage of our food would be
about as nutritious as sand or wood.
Peptines are similar and are the anhy-
dride acids. Prof. Emil Fischer, who in-
vented the artificial production of grape
sugar, concludes that albumen is t-
illing but a compound built up of many
peptines. By the synthesis of seven
peptines he has already produced a
compound greatly resembling albumen.
It froths, can be beaten into foam, and
is decomposed or digested when treated
with the juice taken from the pen0rea-
tic duct of a dog. He thinks that thirty
or forty peptines form a peptone, and
that albumen Is a compound of several
peptones. Science, therefore, has set to
worlc to find out ways and means of
combining as many peptines as pos-
sible in order to achieve artificial albu-
men. Since albumen is the principal
componet part of the bodies of all ani-
mals, of grain and corn, of all our
nourishment, this would mean artificial
bread, artificial meat, no more fears
over failures of crops. It }would not ut be
impossible to get nourishment out of
coal. No more hungry folk. The social
problem ought

How They Saved the Lives of Soldiers
in the Late War.
Shunzo Takulci, son of Laron Kat-
ldla - T'nl<ald, one of the chief medical
ofilvers of the Japanese navy, is report-
ed by a. New York panel. to have said :
"rhe exh'no'dinay surcoss of Japan-
ese surgeons in the military and naval
brnueh of the service in saving lives of
wounded prisoners and guarding against
hu1(1 epidemic disease and fevers has
been in 110 way due to any secret know-
ledge possessed by the physicians. 'Tho
surgeons of any service could have done
the sane thing under the sane condi-
tions. The Japale,e administration
broke away from any traditions by giv-
ing the medical department more power
than such ofllcel:s possessed hitherto.
The army in the field never camped un-
til the site selected had been approved
by the me1(cel tam's. The soldiers
never drank water until it was either
boiled or the s(renm or spring marked
by the medical department "Fit for
drinking." The food supplieJ to the sol-
diers was prescribed by the medical
department end the lime of feeding was
also under the eont'ol of that branch.
Japan recognized, in --fact, (hat, battles
are 50011 by healthy men as well as
modern weapons. And we think thnt it
is dimple' to save the life of a wounded
soldier who line been trained and who

take a raw recruit and melte him as
