GLASS.

A change from old methods Is that
OF fashioning glass by machine pres
sure instead OF moldlng by blowing.
In the pressed glass the articles ara
either made by hand or machine pres
sure, and this innovation has done
much toward making glass articles
much cheaper than formerly.
Only In the last two years have
there been changes In the method OF
glassmaking From time immemorial
the materials used have been melted
In large pot, the modern ones hold
Ing from 1000 to 1900 pounds OF glass,
a number OF these pots being heated In
one furnace AZ present In some OF tho
new establishments these pots have
been replaced by huge tanks or rec
tangular boxes OF masonry holding as
much as 400 tons OF the molten glass
Attention was recently called to the
proposed use OF glass brick In build

ment OF Switzerland has approved the
use OF glass for making weights "a

England comes the suggestion thai
glass would be better and moro lasting
