SOME CURIOUS FACTS
ABOUT COLOR.

Put a growing plant under red
glass and it shoots up very tall and
splndly. Green glass causes SINH
lar effect. but not so strongly marked.
Blue glass. on the other hand. seems
to dwarf vegetable growth.
A plant grown under blue glass is
always smaller than its neighbor nn-
der transparent glass. although the
conditions are otherwise similar.
A series of experiments in growing
plants under various colored glasses
was conducted by the well-known as
tronomer. Camille Flammarior, and
the results, as above. reported by HIM
to the French academy
Light and color are full of odd puz-
zles. many of which are still good
deal of mystery DR.. Neil Finsen,
famous for his electric light invention
for the cure of cancer, made exhaust
i've experiments on the effects OF
lights of various colors on various
forms of animal life.
One or two of these were very in
teresting. For instance. he placed
number of earth worms in a box GOV,
cred half with red. half with blue
glass. In every case the worms were
found to crawl away from under the
blue glass and take shelter under the
red, where they remained quite con-
tent. Under blue light they were IN
varably restless and i'll at ease.
A chamelon lizard was then plac-
ed by the experimenter in small box,
SO that half its body was under blue
and the other half under red glass.
He noticed that at once the part un-
der the blue rays turned black. while
that part under the red light remain
ed almost white. 1t was evident that
the creature was using its pigment
cells to protect itself against the dis
agreeable effects of the blue light.
1t is now universally acknowledged
that the blue rays are. of all the .vis-
hle rays which we receive from the
sun, the only ones that can produce
injurious effects upon plant or animal
life. 1t is these blue rays that cause
soaring in smallpox.
The skin in this disease becomes al
most as sensitive as a Photographic
plate. If the patient is kept in the
dark no soaring results. But a red
light is equally harmless as darkness
and less unpleasant to the patient.
Sunstroke, as We call it, is produce"
not by light rays at all. but by the
chemical rays of the sun. Sunstroke
NAV thus be termed a photosraphlc
effect, and we can therefore use color
to fight it.
Treat the body as a photographer
treats his dark plates. Envelop it not
