Some important information has reached me on
the lure OF EdSOn's electric light. II il formed
by coil OF platinum being placed over a wire
heated by the electric current. The coil itself
Is The source Of light. the current sent through
IL being strong enough 10 make il white hot and
SelfluminOus. The difficulty TO be overcome at
this point OF the invention was the liability OF
the wire 10 fuse and spoil the light-a difficulty
which Mr.. Edison claims TO have ObV1ate1 By
the introduction oil simple device. which, By
the expansion OF small bar the instant the
neat OF the coil approaches the fuSing point or
the platinum, interpoSeS as a cheek 10 the flow
OF the current through the coil. This automatic
arrangement secures, il i said, an even How OF
electricity through the coil, and consequently a
steady flow OF pure light. This bears out Ed
sons statement as to the simplicity OF his In
NenilOn. He has been working on a very Old
and well known basis, as 50 tar back rs 1915 a
patent was granted in England for lamp in
which incandeSceht platinum wire ,ya3 used 10
