It was the day after Bismarck's death, and everywhere the black-white-red flags were hanging out at half-mast In honor of the man who had made the two provinces a Iteisch-land part of the new German empire. Today Bismarck's work is undone; gone, even from Germany Itself, Is the black-white-red flag; gone are the Prussian officers and officials, the red-hatted station masters, and all the other paraphernalia of Imperial German routine. The older order survives but here and there, in the great official buildings erected and arranged on the grandiose German (or, as the Germans now call it, WiJholmian) scale, in the familiar square blue German letter boxes, in the neat blue street signs which have been left standing with a. neat new French sign affixed above or beneath. No doubt the minor officials have been but little changed.

That more than Is annually spent in the United States for soft drinks is the conclusion reached by experts in the revenue bureau, who hase the figures on the tax returns from the sale of 10,000,000,000 glasses a year at an average of ten cents a glass. This vast sum, according to a chemist in the health department, Is paid for sodas and other drinks composed largely of coal tar products of practically no food value and masquerading under the protective cloak of "imitation" and "artificial," which exempts manufacturers from punishment under existing statutes. Orangeade, if genuine, is glucose, sweetened water and oranges without any artificial coloring.

The imitation orangeade, according to the chemists in the New York city department of health, is a combination of oil or orange coloring, sweetened with saccharine that conies in bottles. Saccharine is a coal tar product 500 times sweeter than sugar, and of no food value, which is considered injurious to health by medical authorities if taken in excess of four glasses a day. P. Q.
