Substitutes for Daylight.

As a substitute for the ordinary glass lamp-globe, there has been introduced In Germany, a globe made of thin, translucent marble. The light produced from this globe Is declared by experts to be almost the exact counterpart of daylight Another German novelty in Illumination consists of a screen coated with an aluminum powder which, when placed before a light, transmits a glare exactly like daylight, by means of which even colors can be judged with perfect accuracy. f Should these German discoveries prove to be all that has been claimed for them, they will doubtless be universally adopted. Artificial light that Is a perfect substitute for daylight Is what the world has been waiting for.
