the intensely cold Weather experienced last week a number of London motorbus drivers was go badly chilled that they had to be lifted from their driving seats and massaged in neighbouring shops. The London General Omnibus Co., Ltd., did everything possible to alleviate distress by providing thermos flasks of hot drinks at terminal points, etc.
The experience is only one More proof of the quite unnecessary hardships enforced by short-sighted regulations framed by officials who apparently can have but little real knowledge of the great discomfort suffered by thousands of men whose efficiency in-driving has for long been a subject for admiration.
SINCE we drew attention a short time ago to a special photographic means 'whereby natural wood grainings, inlay work and expensive veneers • could be copied and faithfully transferred to a variety of bases, we have received many inquiries from bodybuilders for details of the process. Tt is known as the " Nicollwood," and the concern responsible for it is the British Nicollwood Co., Ltd., 82, Victoria Street, London, SAVA. We have handled several Nicollwood reproductions and have
been impressed with the remarkable simulation of the original examples. T h e imitations are, apparently, quite durable, for they will not lose tone or colour under the influence of the sun's rays. In the case of inlay work they have merits over the original, in that they cannot peel or chip.
LOOSE LEAVES. I
OUR Paris correspondent has waxed sarcastic
over a description, in an English paper published in Paris, of an American device for utilizing heavy oil. The writer states that the fuel must be drawn from a " banded " carburetter. We presume that
standard" Was the word intended, but we will give our correspondent's views, which are as follow :—Like So many really important inventions, he says, this oil-fuel device seems to be simplicity itself, but it -mitst have a banded carburetter. The bands should be painted horizontally around the float chamber, preferably in red and white, to the number of 13. The principle involved appears closely to resemble that employed in the Lancashire hot-pot arrangement, but the vapour obtained is drier (probably, owing to the effect of the American atmosphere), and consequently deposits less carbon!
