WHOLESALE

A FRENCH INVENTORS PLAN FOR USING RAYS
WHOLESALE
George Isambard Frenchhan has taken out
a patent on a process which. he thinks. VIII rev.
olutionze the art Of printing. He proposes 10
use photograp hic paper TO receive the impress
sions produced by his system. And he does MS
work by means Of Y rays. a plate is prepared
by tracing on paper with ink which is proof
against this form OF radiance whatever words or
designs II is desirable to reproduce. Such
screen having been set up In front OF sheet OF
sensitized paper the current is turned on In his
X-ray tube. Where the screen has not been
protected by ink the rays go through and MAKE
an impression the sensitive paper, turning !"
dark But where the ink shuts them or the
paper remains white Thus the copy obtained
shows the writing and pictures in white on
dark ground.
NJ Isambard would arrange his printing paper
in packages several layers deep so that num-
Der OF impressions can be obtained simulta-
neously Indeed. he thinks that number OF
packages might be adjusted around the tube In
asmuch as the rays proceed in all directions
from the place where they originate.
This idea Is ingenious but publisher is like
" to SCI. lis presses Immediately In consequence
Of NJ. Standards invention. The scheme has
many drawbacks 1t costs good deal to sensi-
tie paper and the price OF books and newspa-
pers produced by this method would be greater
than now. The intensity OF the y rays dlmlh-
ishes with distance and the rear layers OF paper
in a package would not be strongly impressed
as the front ones. 1t would be hard TO regulate
the time Of exposure as 10 get good results IN
both places. The process would require more
time than is spent in printing by the old method.
There are newspaper presses that turn ou'
twenty five thousand or fifty thousand copies an
hour II would take week or month py III
Isambards method to get that number OF I'M
pressons.
Moreover the best X-ray pictures are blurred
around the edges. This would be the case Win
any printing done by the new process. But VITA
type there is already only too much indlstlncl-
nc ST. owing to fast work and poor Ink ana paper
The public will not buy papers and books that

in. The dividends of private mining interests and close corporations would certainly double these figures. The same ratio for the remainder of the year will make the publicly declared dividends nearly s2,5O0,O00. Including profits derived from private mining enterprises, S, 5,000,00O is a safe estimat e of the net results of the industry in that stat,a for 1898. That is per cent on an investment of 000,000,000.
 Ths question is frequently asked Of late, to what may be attributed the re- newSd interest in mining enterprises, particularly in this country? The cause is not difficult to discover, says the Minng Reporter. Capital is always ready to engage in enterprises which pay. Mining doss pay. The fact mas been established. It is as legitimate 2 business enterprise as raising wheat CT smelling iron if it is reduced to commercial principles; and the man who have made mining successful and conservative at this tima are those who have brought to bear on it brains, ed- ucational equipment and ordinary com mon sense.
