White lights for all.clear signals win
probably be abandoned before long.
Not only are there a great many pri.
,vate white lights among railroads, but
in case either a green or red danger
signal has the glass broken it is sure
to be misunderstood. In a number Of
cases where such signals have been
maliciously broken bad wrecks have
occurred. In New England there is a

Camphor eating is the latest fad
which fashionable women have adop-
ted as a means Of clearing the COM
plexion. The habit produces, however,
a ghastly pallor, weakens the system,
and, once contracted, is as difficult to
cure as is the vice of drinking intoxi-
cants. 1t is therefore, extremely per-
nicious and should be avoided by every

Professor Trowbridge, Of Harvard
University, has made public his re.
searches which lead him to the conclu.
sion that pure hydrogen is a non-con.
ductor of electricity. An electric dis
charge cannot penetrate an atmosphere
of pure hydrogen nor in fact, any gas.
In ordinary cases the spark is trans.
mitted by the ions, resulting from the
decomposition Of water. Schumann has
shown that pure hydrogen at atmos-
pheric pressure, transmits ultra violet
rays as freely as the most perfect
vacuum. Hence, this gas, by Max.
Wells theory, must be non-cOnductor.
Professor Dewar mas also shown eX-
perimentally that liquid hydrogen is
non-conductOr.
