ABSTRACT
MIXINGS FOR OHEAP LOZENGES. THE high price of gum, no doubt, accounts to a great extent for substitutes used in making a lozenge paste for cheap goods. The formulre differ with different makers, The writer knows lozenge hands who at present are making a paste by simply melting glucose and working as much ground sugar into it as possible, Others use glucose and gelatine, and some use a mixture of gum, gelatine and glucose. Readers who are called upon to make lozenges, where price is the only consideration, will find the following workable and answering this purpose. However, if this is still too expensive, the gum may be left out, then the gelatine, but I hardly think anything cheaper than glucose can be found, and this will do at a pinch by itself, but the quantity must be increased.
