Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Druggist and Pharmaceutical Record, Vol. 30: A Semi-Monthly Illustrated Journal of Practical Pharmacy; January to June, 1897 Acetylene, already so much spoken and written of as an illuminant, threatens to introduce itself in the confection of liquors. This use of it may, at first, ap pear but little appetizing, when its dis agreeable odor is considered, but we hasten to say that care is taken to trans form it into alcohol, for it is a gas which contains the principal elements of that precious liquid; there remains but to add what is lacking - oxygen.
