London, Dec. 22.--A light Which far artificial light, and Is the closest ap- proach to actual daylight ever accom- plished is understood by the Am merican Chamber of Commerce in London to have been perfected here.
 The apparatus consists of d high power electric light bulb fitted with a Cup-shaped opaque reflector, the silvered inner side of which reflects the light against a parasol-shapod screen placed above the light. The screen is lined with small patches of different .Solors.s sllrrit11ged d aGcorIing tor a formula worked out empirically by MT. Sheringham, the inventor, and carefully tested and perfected in the Imperial College of Science and Tech nology.
 The light thrown down from the screen is said to show colors almost we'll as in full daylight. Under the new light, delicate yellows were quite distinct. indigo blues were blue, CO balts had their full value. and violets lost the reddish shade which they display in electric light.
 The American chamber says a great future is expected for this in Vention in such uses as the lighting of show windows and art galleries. studio work of all kinds, dye-worlls, tea and tobnccos blending, and many other industries. Color photography also will probably benefit
