other things, proposes to define

make such transactions illegal.
It provides for a $10,000 fine and
from one to three years’ impris

Gases Penetrate Glass.
With liquid air performing feats and
doing jobs for the scientific and in
dustrial worlds, gaseous glass is per
haps not amazing. Glass, the renown
ed experimentalist, M. Berthelot, has
proved permeable to gases at nigh
temperature. At temperatures below
; Us melting point glass has been as
sumed impenetrable by oxygen, nitro
i gen and carbon monoxide and dioxide,
I but between 5S0 and 800 Centigrade
: glasi tubing has shown itself permea
ble. This passage of gases through
slightly softened glass is compared to
the gaseous exchanges taking place at
the ordinary temperatures through the
walls of India rubber tubing and the
Importance is emphasized of ^ this prop
1 erty of glass hitherto unsuspected in
| many chemical aud physical investiga
