CARBURETTED HyDROGEN GAS—THAT WITH WH! SHOPS ARE LIGHTED—PRODUCED ON A SMALL SCALE,—» the bowl with the largest tobacco-pipe, that can be proce ed with pulverised coal of a good quality, and close top of it by the application of pipe-clay, or, what is bet# a mixture of sand and beer. When the lute is dry, pl) the bow] of the pipe in a clear fire: in a few minutes: dense smoke will issue from the stem, which, on the plication of a lighted paper, will inflame, and will cx tinue in astate of beautiful combustion as long as any ° continues to be distilled from the coal. The body wht will be found remaining in the bowl of the pipe is the ss stance called coke. 464, A FOUNTAIN OF FIRE—FORMED BY PHOSPHUR: TED HyproGcEN Gas,—Put fifteen grains of finely gras lated zinc, and six grains of phosphorus, cut in sm pieces, (cut this under water, ) in the glass, fig. 17. ™ in another glass, a drachm by measure of sulphuric aa with two drachms of water. Now, take the two glasses: to a dark room, and there pour the diluted acid over the and phosphorus in the other glass: in a short time, ph! phuretted hydrogen gas will be produced, and beaut# jets of blueish flame will dart from all parts of the surf: of the liquid, the mixture will be quite luminous, ane quantity of beautiful luminous smoke will rise in a colum from the glass, A Fountain of Fire is a very apt ne for the appearance that is produced. The experimen very easily performed, and is a very beautiful one. 465. TO PROCURE SULPHURETTED Hyprocen Ga Put into the retort, (fig. 18), one part of sulphuret of timony of commerce, or of sulphuret of iron, broken 7 a coarse powder, and pour upon it three or four parts i](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b22027634_0176.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
