Fraudulent Sweetbreads and Historic Valuations
Fraudulent sweetbreads compare real pancreas with throat derived substitutes, warning of mislabeling and health concerns. The piece cites a Pittsburg Dispatch quote on the true sweetbread and explains gland differences. It then shifts to historical money values, recounting Louis IX’s release for 100,000 marks and how bezants relate to modern sums, including embalmers’ boiling and the Paris skeleton tale. It continues with ethnographic notes on British Isles populations and ends with cost comparisons of the New York State Capitol, Washington Capitol, and Library of Congress.
