The mantle ismade by soaking a stocking in a solution of nitrates of thorium andcerium (approx. 99 : 1), drying, and, for use, igniting to burn thethread and convert the nitrates into oxides, which remain as afragile ash. The light far exceeds that obtained from the same amountof gas with the ordinary fishtail burner, but has a slight greenishhue.
