RED AND BLUE MAKE BLACK.
But That Result Depends Upon the
Colors Being Perfect.
We are told by the textbooks on
light that red glass is red because it
absorbs all the other rays of the spec
trum and transmits only the red; that
blue glass absorbs all except the blue,
and so with glass of every other color
The fact that red glass superimposed
npon blue glass transmits violet light
seems In contradiction of this teaching,
according to which the red glass would
absorb all the blue and green light and
transmit nothing but red to the blue,
which, iu turn, would absorb all the
red.
The reason for the violet light Is that
no red glass made Is of sufficiently
pure color to absorb all the blue and
green waves and no blue glass is suf
ficiently pure to absorb all the red and
orange rays So the red transmits a
certain amount of the blue and green
and the blue transmits a certain
amount of the red and orange. Enough
of the blue rays come through the red
glass and enough of the red rays
through the blue glass to make a nice
violet or purple when the glasses are
superimposed
The Scientific American describes a
simple experiment by which you may
prove the truth of the theory. Dis
solve red aniline In amy! alcohol and
copper chloride in dilute hydrochloric
acii The one will give you a trans
parent red liquid that will actually ab
sorb all the rays but the red; the other
will give you a transparent greenish
blue liquid that will absorb all the red
and orange rays. If you mix the two
liquids and shake them up they will
turn black. But they will not stay
mixed and will quickly separate again.
Hard to Pronounce.
One of the hard names to pronounce
Ia that of the central Russian govern
ment called'.Vijnl Novogrod. The first
"i" has the sound of "e;" the second is
short The "o" In the penultimate
syllable Is long, as in the English
word "go." The "o" in the syllables
•'dot" and "rod" has the sound of "o"
la the English word "rod." "J" has the
soft French sound. The accents are
on the first and last syllables, "Neezh
ni Nov-go-rod."
Extremes.
Cham, the French caricaturist, was
talking one day with a Gascon, who
bragged that his father's ancient baro
nial dining hall was the wonder of the
world. It was so high you could bard
ly see the roof.
"My father had a dining room," said
Gham. "which was just as remarkable
the other way. it was so low that the
only fish we could serve at table was
flounder!1'
Admiration.
"Have you told your father that 1
asked you to marry me?" asked the
young man.
"Yes." replied the positive young
woman.
"And how was he affected?
"He smiled and exclaimed, 'Brave
