Fig. 168.—Combustion Lantern the oxy-hydrogen flame is that adopted by the late A jet for burning the two gases is furnishedwith a hollow chamber in the course of the hydrogen this chamber is introduced some metallic sodium, andthe chamber is heated in a Bunsen burner; the gas thencarries over with it a copious supply of sodium vapour, whichburns with intense brilliance at the orifice of the jet. The lines of some alkaline earths may also be excellentlyshown by a simple apparatus devised by Prof. Weinhold, andshown in figs. 1G8 and 1G9, fig. 1G8 being a plan one-thirdthe natural size, fig. 169 a perspective view on a smallerscale. The body is a small cubical lantern, with a door at theback fastened by the catch g, and with a nozzle on the front THE SPECTRUM 309 into which slides a metal tube, enlarging at the front end intoa long cone r, and at the back end bearing a plate with a slits. The cone r is made to extend nearly to the lens whichfocusses the slit
