It would, in fact, be somewhatremarkable if these were present upon our plates, since they aremuch fainter in the titanium flame spectrum than the fluting atX 5598, which is very faint and difficult in As we go toward longer wave-lengths, the successive flutingsbecome stronger in the spot spectrum, until in the deep red theyform its most characteristic feature. The fluting at X 7055 is espe-cially noticeable, as it occurs in a region of the spectrum in whichthere are but few strong lines to interrupt its continuity. A com-parison of this fluting in the spot and in the flame of the electric arc(negative copy) is given in Plate II
