THERMOMETER 3

Process Of Their Manufacture at
Jena, In Germany.
A most interesting account is given
in The Idler Of the wonderful state
aided industry at Jena where glass and
lenses are made for scientists. The in
dustry has been built up by Professor
Able and DR.. Schott, and has through
out been conducted by scientists whose
efforts have made Jena famous among
scientific men the world over. One Of
the most picturesque features Of the
Jena glassworks is the great corridor
where the thermometer tubes are
blown and drawn, says a correspondent.
We saw this glass in process of man.
ufacture. A boy workman caught a
pit of molten glass from the furnace on
the end Of a blowpipe. 1t was hardly
larger than a walnut, but by twirling
and blowing and molding it grew to the
size Of an orange, with the shape of an
orange. More glass was then added.
and there was more rolling and blow
ing, and when the proper stage was
reached the blowpipe was passed
quickly to the brawny master work
man.
BE, in his turn. added glass. blowing
from time to time with cheeks out

must burst, and then rolling the great
ball Of glass on his iron kneading board

the ball always symmetrical and yet

second workman attached the blowpipe
at the bottom. Then the two men ran
in opposite directions, twirling the
pipes and blowing Justify from time to-
time. From a thick. partly yellow
globe the glass thinned out quickly as
the men ran apart. until 1t became a
dull red tube not larger than a mans
little finger and nearly 300 feet long.

ENGLISH OF THE ENGLISH.

sLondon IL . Nice Place II You
Know h Language"
That hackneyed American maiden
you knew the language was o n bit
absurd. We speak English, but we
have built up our forms of English ex
preston upon the English of a few
shires of the old country as 1t was
spoken between two and three centu-
ries ago, while they have been blending
and changing the speech of all their
home peoples during the same period.
The result Is that an American can
hardly utter a sentence In England
without calling attention to the differ.
ence between his speech and that Of
the people about him.
Only yesterday, after 10 months resi-
dence in England, I rushed up to a con.
ductor in Charing Cross station and
asked, (Which a for Bromley?" He
stared at me. and l knew I had spoken
q foreign tongue to him, because street
vehicles like omnibuses and horse carr
tire called road cars and tram cars, and
there are no other ears in England.
If you ask a guest at your home in
England whether he likes his meat
rare, be asks what you said because he
does not understand you. He calls
meat UNDERGONE when it is not thor
oughly cooked. If you tell him you
fear the asparagus is canned, he Is at
a loss again, because he would have
said 1t was timed. To ask him to pass
the powdered sugar will again set him
to wondering, for he calls 1t icing sugar
generally, though he knows that it is
sometimes called caster or sifted sugar.
And II you have candy on the table
you may not call 1t so without betray.

The boy began to cry bitterly.
"Will you go home quietly and stay

The boy thought for a moment. A
