hibited new paste combination des-

wish to make known at the time the
chemical oomposition Of this paste,
and also new ink exhibited with il
~ the patents that he bad applied for
in Germany aud America had not
yet been obtained. He made known
the fact. nevertheless, that asbestos
was the principal thing employed in
the manufacture OF his incombustlblo
paper.
He presented specimens Of writing,
printing. engraving. etc, made with
his inks Of different eolors. and also
showed a wster-color drawing that
had been submitted to the fiery Ordea;
OF the potter's furnace. The painting
bad preserved all it's brilliancy aud
the paper all its fiexibility. BY
request, the inventor for few minu.
t.s exposed to Il gas flame sheet of
bis paper upon which he had written
with ink Of his composition. Neither
the ink nor the paper was changed.
In order to demonstrate bya most
conclusive test how great y heat the
paper and ink were capable OF with.
standing. Mr.. Meyer then placed
