ELECTRIC LIGHT BULBS.
Proc.s. by Which the Miniature
OneA Are Produced.

The process Of making the miniature
electric light bulbs that are used in
such %profusion- for decorative and ad-
yertising purposes is one requiring q
great deal "f manual skill, or, rather,
skill both of the hand and mouth, for
they are blown by mouth from glass
tubes which, are imported specially for
the purpose. The large bulbs used for
ordinary lighting purposes are made
by machinery.
The first process is blowing the bulb.
The end of the glass tube is softened
in a gas flame and closed, and then a
spot i'll the center of the tube is held
in the flame until it becomes soft
enough to work. When that point Is
reached the operator blows it up to the
required size and then lays it aside.
During the blowing process the tube
is kept constantly turning in order to
preserve the symmetrical outlines of
the bulb. This part of the work is
done by men. Women do not seem to
possess lung power enough for it.
While this is going on girls in IN
other part of the shop are at work
soldering OH the little specks of car
bon which are to furnish the light to
tiny wires. The bulbs are closed at
one end, cut off the tube and passed
to a girl who sets the cartoons into
them and passes them on to another
workman, who anneuls them on to a
fork containing five bulbs, all COM
municating with a trunk tube. This
in turn is anneuled on a branch which
contains five forks. so that every
branch contains twenty-five bulbs.
These branches are then taken to the
exhausting room, where they are at
tached to a series Of air pumps, aid
the air is exhausted from them. Each
bulb is then subjected to a gas flame
again, and the end is Theoretically
sealed. After this come the minor
operations of finishing, testing and
fitting to sockets. Each lamp is test
ed three times before it is allowed to
go out, and it must also conform as to
size to a standard Observation-Disclosures
