a Swedish doctor spent many years .working on his theory that the secret of perpetual youth lay in the intro- duction of a certain serum into the thyroid gland, or “Adam’s Apple,” which, according to eXperts, is the one mainly indentified with ageing of the body. Extraordinary results are claimed for the method of treatmentvinvcnted some years ago by M. Quinton, of Paris. He contended that all living creatures had their origin in the seas, and that our complex bodies were simply large collections of cells and cellular bodies to be found in the sea. Quinton argued that .by injecting a preparation of sea water into the human body, the cells would be sup- plied with the original fluid from which they came. Thus would renew- ed vitality be secured, and disease and old age driven away. This is briefly the theory. and in actual practice it has proved one of the most wonder- ful remedies discovered.

The material is low grade, but with some€,000,000 tons in sight. The maximum quality of the asbestos is stated to be No. 2 crude. Mining developments in Canada are proceeding along several new lines as the result of distinct discoveries. Im- mense deposits of astricsnit have been found in Muskiki Lake, near Kaska- kee Springs, in Saskatchewan. To the trade this commodity is' known as crude Glanber's salt or salt cake sul- phate, and latest surveys indicate that there are deposits to the extent of 9,- 000,000 tons. The crude material is at present being shipped to Kitchener, Ontario. The byproduct will include Glauber‘s salt, which is used extensive- ly in paper making; Epsom salts, bromide, common salt. and magnesia, which articles were largely imported in pre-war days from Germany and the United States. ’ British Columbia has been able to offer a new industry in that of mining Epsom salts. The discovery of large deposits of these salts was made a few years ago in British Columbia, but it is only now that they are being mar- keted to any extent in Canada. The deposits are located in a chain of fine lakes near Basque. The lakes are of the basm variety and are in the dry belt, Where the combined rain and snowfall does not exceed five inches annually. The deposits are covered with water from 6 inches to 1 foot from the last of March until June or July. The hot, dry summer winds evaporate the water very rapidly, and during most of the year the magnes- ium sulphate may be easily removed.
