The incandescent gas mantle is modified into a heating radiator by Marcel Delage, a Paris engineer. A tube of asbestos thread, of open mesh, is formed on the same mald the gas mantle, and is cut le proper length and the top drawn together to form a head. Greater solidity is given by dipping into silicate of sodu, then drying and calciaing on a gas burner. It is next dipped into nitrate of carium salation and again dried and calcined, this treatment-being essential, as the great kent radiation is due to the corium salt. The completed mantle mey even be dropped on the ground without break. ing. In use, it is suspended over a blue flame, six in a row in an open-front stove form of radiator being an effective arrangement, and it beats quickly, making the best use of gas heat. by radiating a large part of it horizontally.

(Cheera) But the society and cognate bodies interested must. keep the question to the front, and on no account relax their efforts,

Lord Reay, alfading to the sue subject, said he hoped that a really satisfactory museum world be established, and that among its new exhibits would be part of the extraordinarily valuable archeological collection brought from Central Asia by Dr. Stein. It was absurd to send out gentlemen like Dr. Stein to face con-- stunt hardship and frequent danger in deselato and inhospitable regions, to appland their achievements at meetings on their return, and yet to fail to provide suitable accommodation for the deposit of the collections which they brought back with them.

The walls of his house contain many quaint paintings, mostly of marine scenes, the product of the brush of his father, Commander Henry James, R.N., who served against the piraten in the Straits of Malacca, in 1836, on H.M.S. Wolf,

well as had many other adventures in widely divergent parts of the world. The life of the Commander, from the pen of his only surviving child, Misa Edith A. James, the sister of the decensed; who is now in London, was published by Messrs. Spottiswoode & Co., in 1899.

Mr. James left no relatives in this part of the world, but his affairs are being looked after by Mr. S. Vincent, an old friend of thirty years standing, who has been with him, with Mrs. Vincent, during his last hours.
