CELLULOID PRODUCTS.
Safe to Handle, bat Heady to Born:
Therefore, Look Out.
American Analyst.
Umbrella and cane handles, colli rs,
cuffs and scores cf other articles of
convenience, utility and even ele
gance, manufactured from celluloid,
are in daily nse by large numbers ot
the people. The question is asked:
"May they be safely used?"
Celluloid is made from gun cotton,
the powerful and violeut explosive
compound. Gun cotton is made by
saturating absorbent paper with a
mixture of two parts of nitric acid
aud five parts of sulphuric acid. The
cellulose of the paper, derived from
th cellular tissue of the cotton in
common use, is charged .bf.tbe com-
bination and become eon cotton. .v . ;
To make celluloid, the excess
of acid is washed out by a free
use of water, and by pressure care
fully applied. After the removal of
all uncombiaed acid, it ii reduce 1 to
a homogeneous, pulpy mass, strained
until it becomes nearly dry, and ia
then mixed with about one-third of
its weight of gum camphor. These
materials are mixed as unifeimly as
possible by careful manipulation with
wooden instruments, and then by '
grinding. The pulp which is turned
out by grinding is spread out, reduced
to slabs of various thicknesses and
rolled between steam heated rollers,
and then becomes moderately elastic
in strips of medium thickness. In
this form it is worked up into the
various articles which are offered for
a'e and use.
Although gun cotton is easilv man
ufactured, its manufacture for ex
periment or for general use is not
recommended; and, although celluloid
articles may be safely used with ordi
nary care, a bonfire of such articles
tor amusement is not recommended.
No injuries from such have been re
ported. A woril to the wise, how
ever, suffices.
He Didn't Talk Shop.
Tone Haute Express.
"What is your occupation, Mr.
Wagner?' asked the landlady of the
new boarder.
"I am the funny man on the Sun
day Bugle," was the reply.
'It would be just as well, I sup
pose," said the good woman, "to
show you our rules before you engage
board with us permanently," and she
handed him a card on which were
printed the following:
"1. Whea spring chicken U
brought to the table, no reference to
ear-spnngs, the spring Noah went on
on excursion, etc., etc., will be er
mitted. "2. Any boarder who indulges in
wild hilarity on finding a bean in his
roup will be instantly expelled.
''3. Remarks upon the cheapness
of crrosive sublimate arc prohibited
especially at the breakfast table."
The young man canned the 'rules" '
carelullv, aud cheerfullv remarked,.
Oh, that's all right, Mrs. Uas'u
