NV process Of STAINING Glass.

The art of coloring glass has been
lost and rebound, jealousy guarded
and maliciously stolen so many times
in the history of civilization that 1t
seems almost impossible to say any
thing new on glass staining. Yet a
process has been discovered for ma
king the stained glass used in windows
which is a departure from anything
known at the present time. What the
Venetians and the Phoenicians knew
of it we cannot tell.
The glass first receives its design In
mineral colors and the whole is then
fired in a heat so intense that the col
oring matter and the glass are indis-
solubly fused. The most attractive
feature of this method is that the sur
face acquires a peculiar pebbled char
acter in the heat, SO that when the
glass is In place the lights are delight
fully soft and mellow.
In making large window in many
shades each panel is separately mould
ed and bent and the sections are ass
sembled in metal frame.

Further on he says: "The beginning and end
of the matter is to supply the lacking princi-
pie, and in molecular form, exactly nature
furnishes it in vegetables fruits and grain.
To supply defciencies-this is the only law of

The natural conclusion is that if Phosphate
of Potash is the needed mineral element in
brain and you use food which does not contain
it, you have brain fag because its daily loss is
not supplied
On the contrary, if you eat food known to
be rich in this element, you place before the
life forces that which nature demands for
brain-building.

Ramadan is the month exalted by
Moslems above all others. In that
month the Notwithstanding to Mos

Gabriel from heaven and delivered to
men in small sections. In that month,
Mohammed was accustomed to retire

that month the doors of heaven are
always open, the passages to hell are
