FACTS ABOUT GLASS.

Attention was recently called to the
proposed use of glass brick in building.
The most ancient glass has necessari-
ly the same component parts as that
OF to-day and the processes used seem
to have been similar in all times.
From England comes the suggestion
that glass would be better and more
lasting material than stone for making
monuments which are exposed to the
wearing action Of the weather.
1t is now said that the government OF
Switzerland has approved the use of
glass for making weights to be en-
ployed with balance scales. A pecul-
iarly tough kind of glass is to be Sc
lected for that purpose.
4 change from old methods is that
of fashioning glass by machine pressure
instead Of molding by blowing. In the
pressed glass the articles are either
made by hand or machine pressure, anc
this innovation has done much towarc
making glass articles much cheaper
! than formerly.
No industry except that of clotf
| manufacture has contributed 50 muci
! to the comfort and advancement o
| man as that of glass making. which /
one of the oldest Of technical Industries
/ Its earliest home was Egypt. The Brit
ISL museum has a Hons head Of eias
bearing hierogIyNhics fixing the dat
at 2.4nO years before Christ.

viii oppose any legislative enactment

ate a bonded debt, it being contended
