It is a product of the waste of chemical works, zoplages asbestos or £re-clay balls, and causes the gas to burn brightly and completely, trebling the best. The material can be had in any quantity at no greater cost than fire-clay.
Whether matter undergoes any change of properties on being charged with sisetric current has been a subject of experiment. The rosets have been practically negative. Mr. Paul R.

Some new and simple radium experiments have been described by Prof. Orazio Rebuffat an Italian physicist. On robbing a glass tube with, wool in a medium containing a radinm salt, a luminous glow followed the wool, and ́s glow also appeared when the finger was brought near the excited glass. Using a vacuum tube brought into connection with tabe of radium alt, a brilliant glow appeared inside when the outside of the glass tube was rabbed with wool. This experiment, it is believed, makes it possible to demonstrate the production of emanations from radium mixtures of low grad, or feeblo notivity,
