To discern the exact sex I have sub- jected to a certain reaction the hlood of human beings and animals, as well as extracts from plants. I have sub- Jected to a similar reaction various crystallic forms, taking pyrite as a typical mineral. *The pyrite ¢ lized into cubic form produced n discoloration of the composition into which it was dropped, namely, a typical male reaction. The same mineral crystallized into an oc. tahedron form * discolored the sub. stance into which it was dropped, giv ing a typical female reaction. 1 hav repeated this experiment with 11 dif- ferent minerals. obtaining the same results.” ~ |2 ] ALCOHOL PLANTS PLAN GOURT FIGHT !Big Combine of Denaturing Firms May Be Formed to Wage Battle.
