A European scientist has discovered •method by which wood may be giventhe appearance of metal. Outside ofthe added value lor decorative purpose*which this may give, the advantage-tobe derived is not clearly apparent. Thewood is said to be rendered exceedinglyhard and strong, although it l« equallyuncertain what part of the process maybe assumed to confer these desirablequalities upon wood which was, softand weak before treatment, says an In-dustrial exchange.

The process is described as follows!The wood is first soaked for three orfour days in a solution of caustic alkali

.at!ia\rtempefat.ur(i'p'f.from7S to Btt de-grees centigrade, and is then' trans-ferred at once to a bath of hydrosul-phate of calcium, to which a taturatedsolution of sulphur in caustlo alkali Isadded after 24 hours. "The wood i»<mains In thU bath, which Is kept at atemperatnre ot froi^ 35. to 80 degree»centigrade, and Bnally It is soaked forabout 30 to *9 hours in a solution ofacetate of lead. The wood is then driedat tt moderate temperature and may bepolished with a burnisher of hard wood.In this case it can be made to acquire abrilliant metallio luster and it the sur-face is previously rubbed with apiece otlead, tin or zinc and a glass or porcelainburnisher in used the effect Is Increased.The wood treated in this way resem-bles n metallic mirror* -..•...••.
