COACHES OF VARIED COL RS
System Adopted by Which uniettered
Burmese Are Enabled to Recognize
Their Proper Compartments.

A Burmese train is a ~variegated af-
fair, the tirst-class carriage being
painted white, the secUnd-clasS green,
and the third-ciass brown. The rea-
son for this is that though they are
also marked first, second and third in
the usual way, the native, whether
Bu.mcSe, Shan or other tribe, cannot
read these figures. He can, however,
distinguish n color from another,
and he knows that brown is the color
for his part Of the train. When travel.
ing by train at night in Burma II Is
advisable to keep the window up, 9th
erwise at stopping places a long brown
arm Is quite sure to be inserted and
next morning some OF ones cherished
property will be foun" to have van
lshed. The Burman has quite recon
ciIed himself to the railway as a mode
OF transit. but whether he goes today
or tomorrow is quite immaterial to
him. 1t Is quite common 10 see a party
of Burmese peacefully slumbering on
the platform while their train Is
steanling out Of the station.-Wide

DID AWAY WITH HAND WORK
o Invention of Printing Machine
Completely RevoIutionized the
Calico Industry.

In the days before the printing ma
chine was invented or even until its
use became general, calico cloth was
printed by hand by the block method.
BY this method the design was out
lined on the ST rface of a wooden block,
the outlines were bounded by pieces OF
brass or copper and the surface filled
In with felt to hold tn color, and
sometimes designs of as many as
three or four colors were printed by
this method. When the block was COM
pleted II was dipped in a color box and
the pattern was then impressed upon
the fabric by stamping by hand: and
for each color to be printed the cloth
had to be stamped by a separate op.

FORM AN OPALESCENT HUE
Popularity Frequently Noticed in
Globes of Electric Arc Due to
Spheres of Silica.

A beautiful opalescence may some
times be observed in the glass globes
used to diffuse the light of the electric
arc, particularly after such globes have
been in use for a long time.
Close examination shows that the
opalescence is due to the presence on
the glass Of minute spheres Of silica,
which have evidently been formed by
volatilization from the glass under the
influence of the electric arc. This erect
is in accordance with the experiments
of French scientists, whose electric fur
naces have produced some surprising
results.
The essential feature Of the furnace
Is an electric arc of great intensity.
When rock crystal, broken into frag-
ments, is placed In the furnace il sim
ply melts like so much ice. and in a
few minutes the liquid thus formed be-
gins to boil.
The vapor rising from the liquefied
crystal is condensed into a little blush
white cloud. from which tiny spheres
of silica, glimmering with opalescent
hues, are deposited, These spheres, as
already remarked. are similar to those
found on arc-light globes. The latter.
of course, are the product Of a very
slow and gradual process. while in the
electric furnace the vOlatilization Is
effected with NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

Now that George Green Frog had
