A clever X-ray trick IL described by
Dr. Gustave Michland in the Scientific
American. To heighten the effect a
lamp may be placed behind the sitter,
In front Of whom Is then held the APP
paratus, which looks like the lens tube
OF camera with a sheet Of white paper
exposed In full view as the plate, and
the rubber bulb apparently operating
a pneumatic shutter, IL pressed, The
result IL startling-a picture Of the sub
ject's internal organs flashing instan-
taneously into view In strong colors.
The picture Is previously painted on
the paper with invisible inks-a diluted
solution Of sulphicyanide Of potassium
being used for the lungs a more con-
centrated solution Of the same salt for
the heart and the principal arteries, a
solution Of ferrocyanide Of potassium
for the larger veins, and weaker So
luton Of the same salt for the stomach
and a few intestinal coils. For the rest
Of the body is used a concentrated So
luton OF tannin. The tube really con-
tains only small atomiZer, and pres
sure on the bulb forces from this upon
the paper an invisible spray Of ferrlc
chloride solution, producing well known

SCIENTIFIC MISCELLANY.

A special study Of colors and their
chemistry has been made by j. G.
Vibert, the great French painter. He
finds that the ancient painters, Of the

chalk white, yellow ocher, red ocher
and black. In Pliny's time there had
been added different chalk whites lead
white and It's combinations, massicot,

the mineral colors-unlike those from
vegetable substances-are generally

A number OF samples Of cement from
the ancient water conduits OF Ephesus
and Smyrna have been analysed prov

though ranging in date from several
hundred years before Christ to three
centuries after. The samples were
found 10 be chiefly lime with q small
proportion Of fatty acids. Expert

one part OF olive oil, as this was hard
