The DANGER Of Celluloid.

Umbrella and cane handles, collars.
cuffs and scores of other articles of
convenience, utility and even ele-
gance, manufactured from celluloid,
are in daily use by large numbers of
people. the question is often asked.
MAY they be safely used?n Celluloid
is made from gun cotton, the power
full and violent explosive compound.
Gun cotton is made by s%aturating alb
sorbent paper with q mixture of two
parts of nitric acid. The cellulose of
the paper, derived from the cellular
tissue of the cotton in use,
is changed by the combination and
becomes gun cotton. To make cellu-
loid, the excess of acid is washed out
by the free use of water, and pressure
carefully applied.
After the removal of all uncom-
bined acid, it is reduced to a homo
genous pulpy mass, strained until it
becomes nearly dry, and is then
mixed with about one-third of it's
weight of gum camphor. These
materials are mixed as uniformly as
possible by careful manipulation with
wooden instrum ents, and then by
grinding. The pulp which is turned
out by grinding is spread out and re-
duced to slabs Of varsous thicknesses
and rolled between steam heated
rollers, and then becomes moderately
elastic in strips of medium thickness.
In this form it is worked up into the
various articles which are offered for
sale and use. Although gun cotton is
easily manufactured, its manufacture
for experiment or for general use is
not recommended; and, although
celluloid articles may be safely used
with on Urinary csre, a bonfire of such
articles for amusement is not recon-
mended. No injuries from such use
have been reported. A word to the
wise, however, sufflces. = american
