...labeled straight whiskey, blends be labeled blends (with percentages of alcohol &whiskey stated on the label), imitations be labeled imitations (with ingredients stated).* Medicinal whiskey, said Dr. Wynne, must be the stimulant which the U. S. Pharmacopoeia and the Food & Drugs Act of 1906 specify as "an alcoholic liquid obtained by the distillation of a fermented mash of wholly or partly malted cereal grains, containing not less than 47% and not more than 53% by volume of alcohol at 15.56° Centigrade. It must have been stored in charred wooden containers for a period of not less than four years...

...years ago Professor Harold Clayton Urey of Columbia and Dr. Ferdinand Graft Brickwedde of the U. S. Bureau of Standards discovered a heavy hydrogen in liquid hydrogen distilled at 466° below zero Fahrenheit. Its atomic weight was 2.0136. Later Dean of Chemistry Gilbert Newton Lewis of the University of California following a method devised by the Bureau of Standards' Dr. Edward Wight Washburn, produced 99.5% pure heavy hydrogen. Water containing this heavy hydrogen kills guppy fish, tadpoles, worms. Probably it is poisonous...

...advantage of the hot water heating system over steam and hot air systems is that hot water retains its heat longer than do steam or air. Hot liquids in general are better storers of heat than are vapors or gases. But it is difficult to raise the temperatures of liquids to very high, useful heats. Chemical engineers obtain controlled temperatures of about 900° F. with an organic substance, diphenyl. Highest degree to which water can go and remain water is 698° F. Its pressure against pipes is then almost 2,900 lb. per sq. in. This difficulty gives...
