Testing Optical Glasses.

John A Brashear describes the meth
Cd Of testing optical glass for the quail
ty Of its annealing. The plate, already
polished, is set up on edge at an angle
on black rejecting surface-varnished
glass or black cloth-and viewed
through Nicol prism. If the glass is
fairly well annealed, the polarized light
reflected from the black surface beneath
it produces in the prism the appearance
Of a symmetrical black Maltese cross,
the less marked the better. If the cross
is distorted or broken up into other fig
ures, the plate Is poorly annealed, and
if colors appear the glass must be dis
