Makes Celluloid Fireproof. M. Gervain, a rrench chemist, has patented a process for rendering the deadly celluloid hair brush and comb safe from explosion when It comes accidentally in contact with tne gas flame by the dresser. According to a consular report, this result is obtained by adding to a celluloid mass in course of preparation, just at the moment when it is most liquid, a certain quantity of salts phosphates, bicarbonate of ammonia, or magnesia. Celluloid, thus prepared, when touched by fire or a flame, gives out a gas that checks combustion. In fact, immersion of articles made of celluloid in solutions of any of these salts reduces its inflammability.
