The Drops of Moisture. as Rule. Con-
tain Positive Charges.
Rain drops are almost always chHrg-
ed with electricity. The charge is Of
ten positive. rarely negative. Many
observers have measured the charge
approximately and made 1t from
100000. 900. 900. 000.01 to o00o. 100000
o00.001 amperes per square centimeter.
Professor F. Herath OF Kie describes
in the Revue Electrique the expert.
ments by which he has measured them.
He received the rain on fine me-
tallic cloth twenty-five meters square,
insulated and attached TO galvanom-
eter in a cellar. The galvanometer reg.
istered geographically. Among the
facts be proves are these:
Rains with a constantly positive
charge are much more frequent than
those that change 10 a negative. The
passage from positive TO negative
charge corresponds to a momentary
cessation OF the shower The quantity
of positive electricity brought by the
rain is fifteen times greater than that
Of the negative. The positive currents
In a steady rainfall are about 00O0.-

Glazed earthenware was long sup
posed to be OF no more ancient date
than the ninth century. but the discov-
cry Of glazed ware in Egypt, OF glazed
bricks in the ruins OF Babylon, OF
glazed collins and enameled tiles In

not the case. The Arabs seem to be en-
titled TO the credit OF having intro
duced glazed ware into modern Eu-
rope. The Italians are said TO have
become acquainted with this kiRA Of
