The Light of the Euture.

It seems hard to believe that in a very few years the incandescent lamp, which we now regard as in many respects an almost perfect light, will be regarded as a crude makeshift which mankind availed itself of while science stood on the threshold of the discovery of the perfect luminant. MT. Tesla has shown In his experiments an ideal form of electric lighting which would transcend In luxury and convenience our present system of electric lighting by incandes- cent lamps as far as the latter transcends the oil lamps and tallow dips used by our near ancestors.
 Every drawing room would become an electric field in a continual state of rapidly alternating stress, in which the occupants would live, experiencing no unpleasant effect whatever, while vacu- ous tubes of phosphorescent globes and tubes, without care or attention, would shed soft diffuse light of color and in tensity arranged to suit the most lux urious fancy.
 MT. Teslas watchword is that the phosphorescent glow is the light of the future. He hints at artificial aurora spreading from the summits of towers or hitherto undreamed of height, and he has at all events got as far as produc- ing in the air at atmospheric pressure a glowing plane bounded by two rings about foot and thirty inches in diam eter respectively. Whether all his wis ions will be realized remains to be proved. There is no doubt that they are guiding him right.-Chioago Inter Ocean.
