A method of printing from a gelatine surface hardened with alum, in the same way as from a lithographic stone. It is based upon the fact that gelatine, impregnated with an alkaline bi-chromate, when exposed to light, loses its power of absorbing water. A warm solution of gelatine containing a sufficiency of bi-chromate of potash, is poured upon a waxed gla -plate, leveled, and allowed to dry. These operations must be performed in a room illuminated by a non-actinic light only. The film is then stripped from the gla , exposed to daylight under a reversed photographic negative, and then fastened to a metal plate. After washing away the superfluous chemicals, it is rolled with ordinary lithographic ink, which adheres to the gelatine more or le , according to the amount of change tion of the water by the film. It is then ready for printing in an ordinary lithographic pre . [LITH- OGRAPHY.] hê-li-ô-ty-pog-ra-phỹ, s.

In May, 1898, Profe or James Dewar, of the Royal Institution, London, Eng., succeeded by means of the extreme low temperature of boiling hydrogen in reducing helium gas to a liquid. It has the same boiling point as hydrogen. "In Covent-garden did a tailor dwell, Who might deserve a place in his own hell. King: Art of Cookery.
