USEFUL URALiTE.
Is lncombustible and Can Be Worked
With Like Wood,

WIKI Like VfOCO.
Dietic and Hygienic Magazine: Have
you ever heard of uralite? Probably
not, for It is a new invention. Yet it
is well worthy Of your notice, since it
is superior to anything Of the kind
that has yet been produced. 1t is the
invention of a Russian artillery officer
and chemist, named Imschenetzky, and
its claim to distinction lies in the fact
that it is absolutely freproof.
Uralite is composed of asbestos fiber
with a proper proportion Of silicate,
~bicarbonate Of soda and chalk and it is
supplied in various finishes and colors,
according to the purpose for which it
is intended. In q soft form a sheet
of uralite is like an asbestos hoard;
when hard it resembles finely sawed
stone and has a metallic ring. Be-
sides being a n~onconductor of heat
and electricity, it is practically water
proof (and may be made entirely so
by paint), and is no affected either By
atmospheric influences or by the acids
contained in smoke in large towns,
which rapidly destroy galvanized iron.
Moreover it can be cut by the usual
carpenters or woodworllers' tools, it
can be veneered to form paneling for
walls OF partitions; it can be painted,
grained, polished and glued together
like wood; it does not split when a
nail is driven through il; it is not
