are of glass, their color exercises much in
fluence upoufctbe absorption of oxygen by
toe petroleum. Thus, petroleum oils, when
exposed la white glass to solar and day
light, become yellow and Impregnated with
woe, assuming a greater speciflegravily
aud losing their ready combustibility. This
is said to be especially the case with Amor
