ripen, and which resemble somewhat

Oxygen and Mushrooms.

A singular way of removing oxygen
from the air by the aid of plant is
described by DIR. Il. l.. Phipson in The
Chemical News. Inside glass bell jar,
suspended over water, is placed a mush-
room. and sunlight is allowed to fall
upon the plant The mushroom absorbs
the oxygen from the air in the jar, and
the carbonic acid formed during the
process is absorbed by the water, which
gradually rises in the jar to one-fifth OF
its height. The mushroom now dries
up, but its animation is only suspend
ed, as may be proved by introducing

reflection in the mirror and began to
arch his back and whisk his tail. He
twisted and turned himself and began
to spit, as if eager for contest, and
OF course his apparent adversary did the
same. Then he struck savagely at the
mirror, evidently without the desired
result. Puzzled, he went behind the
glass to investigate, returning thorough

With hearty laugh drew near and
began to stroke him, and in the mirror
he now saw his own reflection and

facture of Lucifers.
1t is predicted that paper is the COM
ing material for matches The prospect
of the wooden match industry being APP
preciably affected by new process for
manufacturing matches of paper is held
to be extremely probable, particularly
as the best wood for this purpose is con-
stantly growing scarcer and more costly
The new matches are considerably
cheaper than the wooden product, and
weigh much less, which counts for
much in expectation. The sticks of the
matches consist of paper rolled together
on the bias. The paper is rather strong
and porous, and, when immersed in a
solution Of wax, stearin and similar
substances, sticks well together and
burns with bright, smokeless and
odorless flame.
Strips one-half inch in width are first
drawn through the combustible mass
and then turned by machinery into long
thin tubes, pieces of the ordinary length
of wood or wax matches being cut off
automatically by the machine When
the sticks are cut to size, they are dip
