To Make Cloth 'Fireprooc.


The American consul ut I'reiburg
Germany, reports an interesting dis
covery by German scientists, the appli-
cation Of which will render cloth and
wood ireproof. The material used to
bring about this result is now being
manufactured by a German firm, and
great things are expected of it. The
American consul declares that he has
experimental with the discovery, and
has found that curtains, carpets, cloth.
ing, draperies and wood to which the
liquid has been applied refuse to yield
to flame. Even when cloth was covered
with kerosene and the oil burned out
the fiber of the goods was only charred,
while the piece remained intact. 1t is
claimed that with the use of this chem
ical application hotels may be made
absolutely fircproof. and that it will re
duce fire risks on inside property very
greatly. The chemical is soluble. and
is therefore impracticablc for outdoor
use. Garments, curtains or carpets thaf
pass through a laundering process
must be treated again. 1t is claimed.
however, that the scientists who have
worked out the process believe they
can render 1t waterproof in time.

the dentists got many Of their ideas
when the tools now in use by them
came TO be manufactured, thirty years
ago. The drills vary in thickness nc.
cording to the portion OF the figure or
design to be executed. Some are as
fine as the point of Il cambria needle.
"A small china receptacle also stands
near. filled with oil and diamond dust
and into this the workman frequently

work.

The work is executed in relief ON

FEW now
Liberal Police II gulations Lead t
Their Uiauae.

AlDcrol 1NOllCc IL Xul0tlOua Lead To
Their Disuse.
There are few countries in which
travellers now require passports in or
der to promote their convenience and
security. In Brazil and Venezuela u
passport must be shown to the officials
before one is allowed to leave the cOun-
try for q foreign port. This is q vexa-
tious measure, enforced, apparently,
for the sake of enabling u few officials
to collect small fees.
In Russia passport regulations are en-
forced with great stringency. No tray
eler is allowed to enter the empire until
he has obtained Il passport and con-
WINGED the Russian consular officers ut
the port from which he sails that he is
neither a Roman Catholic priest nor a
Hebrew. The question ordinarily asked
is: What is your religionY" but it is
designed to provide against the entry of
either Of these two classes.
When the traveller arrives at q Rus
sian port with a passport, which has
been properly vised and countersigned
at a consular office, 1t is critically eX-
amined by a police officer, and duly reg
istercd.
At the entrance Of the hotel another
police officer takes possession of the
document, aud in the course of twenty
four hours returns it with a permit for
q limited residence in the country.
When the traveller departs for anoth-
er city in the empire he must have the
passport countersigned by the police.
This process continues until he reaches
the frontier, which he cannot cross I'M
less the passport has been vised and
stamped by the police. Not infrequent-
~ tourists are stopped at the frontier,
and subjected to comply with the po-
lice regulations respecting passports.
All this red tape causes annoyance
and irritation among tourists, who are
apt to overlook the fact that Russians,
rs we'll as foreigners, are compelled to
observe these police regulations. 1t is
the business of the police to know
where everybody lodges. A permit is
required II q native removes from one
quarter of q town to another. Every
body is registered by the police when
he arrives or departs, and foreigners,
when they are in Russia, arc dealt with
on equal terms with residents.
The same system prevails in Turkey,
where 1t is not practicable for a for
eigner to travel without a passport.
Elsewhere in Europe passports are not
required. They IRE relics Of q bygone
