Cinna bar Is the original source of tbe pig ment known commercially as vermil ion. It is a compound of sulphur and quicksilver, and in order to separate tbe latter from tbe sulphur tbe rock Is roasted. Passing off In the form of a gas, the mercury la afterward con densed and flows out In a fine stream, like a continuous pencil of molten sil ver. Like gold and silver, mercury Is occasionally found in a native or pare state. Sometimes tbe miner's pick penetrates a cavity that contains a cupful or more of tbe elusive and beau tiful fluid. Miners suffer much from tbe poisonous effects of tbe quicksilver fumes. Extreme cleanliness is tbe best safeguard for workers in .this danger ous occupation. Moving Picture Tricks.

The models used for this work are carried out with great attention to detail, and the pictures are taken with the cam- era very close to the ground to get tbe proper perspective.
