...discovery, Dr. Wilson rigged up a perfusion pump analogous to the artificial heart which Charles Augustus Lindbergh designed for his admiring friend Dr. Alexis Carrel. To his pump Dr. Wilson hitched rabbit kidney after rabbit kidney, and through them perfused artificial blood composed of salt water, red corpuscles from beef blood and oxygen. Upon adding potassium cyanide, which displaces oxygen, Dr. Wilson through his microscope could see oxygen-starved mitochondria crumble while cells of the kidneys, and finally the entire kidneys died...
...VIII is to the Prime Minister and executives of the British Empire almost a stranger - a singularly young-looking man of 41 whom they are accustomed to see pop in at a banquet, toy briefly with cold chicken washed down by Scotch & splash while others chomp the hot roast-beef of Old England, and then, after delivering a brief address...

Mrs. Roosevelt was particularly pleased with a steam table called a "Thermotainer," as big as an emperor's sarcophagus, for keeping food hot. Another Thermotainer resembling a heavy, chromium riling cabinet on small balloon tires is used to deliver the President's desk lunch...
...Experts consider that if horses were bred like cattle the slight toughness of horsemeat, which is not so tough as venison, would be readily overcome. While not admitting ever to have cooked horsemeat, Brooklyn's Pratt Institute declared last week that the tender cuts should be broiled like beef. Less tender cuts, meat for the poorest of the poor, should be scored, pounded and marinated in oil & vinegar, pot-roasted or as a last resort hamburged...
