Some sensitized Photographic metal
plates of special value, the work of Mr..
Strauss Collin, are noticed at length by
the London Lancet. They are said to be
developed in the ordinary way, using
"rodinal' preferably as developer,
and, fixed in the hyposulphite bath, very
thorough washing is the next step, and
the image which first appears on devel-
oping vanishes in the hyposulphite So
luton. When, however, the plate, after
washing, is placed in a solution of per-
chloride of mercury, the image reap
pears with great distinctness and with
excellent detail, presenting special ad-
vantages for medical work. Thus the
thin sheeting upon which the sensitized
film is spread may be adapted to any
shape, and, unlike glass plates, is not
easily fractured, so that it may be placed
under the body Of a patient without risk
of breaking Moreover, as is apparent
from the above named process of devel
opment, positive not unlike ferro-
type is at once obtained. The tones are
good and the plates fairly rapid.

Origin Of Billiards.

A letter has been discovered in the
British museum which gives the origin
Of the game Of billiards. TWAS invented
by London pawnbroker, whose name
was William Kew. Kew not only lent
money, but he sold cloth, and for the
latter purpose had "a yard measure with
which he used TO compute the amounts
One day, to distract himself, he took
the three round balls which are the en-
blems of his trade-they may still be
seen in front of certain shops-and plac-
ing them OH his counter began to hit
them about with his yard measure He
got kind of skill in making one ball
glance off the other, and his friends
who saw him thus employed called the
game bills yard. 1t was soon short
ened to billiard, but the yard was the
instrument with which the balls were
knocked about, and the difficulty arose
what to call it, They called it after the
pawnbroker-a Kew.
