Live On Sea -Water The idea has existed -not un- naturally, for thousands have died of thirst at sea -that sea -water is poisonous and that man cannot exist -on it. But now our ideas are being turned upside down by Dr. Alain Bombard, who intends cros- sing the Atlantic in a rubber dinghy. He will live on fish and sea -water, for; he maintains that "anyone can live on sea -water, pro- vided he drinks it slowly and takes not more than a pint a day." This idea is not entirely new, for in 1871 a number of Frenchmen at the Academy of Sciences stated that sea -water had tonic qualities when taken internally, and that if a little sugar were added the taste would not be disagreeable. They added that appetizing bread could be made with flour mixed with sea-' water, for when baked the salt flavour vanished. In Britain, too, Richard Russel, M.D., placed on the market a trans- lation of . "A Dissertation on they Use of Sea --Water In Diseases of the Glands. particularly the Scurvy, Jaundice,,• King's Evil, Leprosy and Glandular Consumption." And at recently as 1938 a German weekly journal advertised "sea and mea- dow -spring water in the propor- tion of 1 to 9 as a health drink for alimentary troubles." CROSSWORD ACROSS 4. Took food 1.
