boy half curiously, asi let her eyes fall again
upon the book that was in her hand. The
boy laid himself down upon tho sola again
and hid his face from sight.
'Thtt's father nows' he started up, after

Will lightning rods protect housesp The
late instance of the school house has been
used by some as nroof that rods do no good.
But the faota in that case furnish very plau-
sible and W think strong proof to the con-
trary. The top Of the tower is covered with
tin, which 10 very good conductor. The
rod runs up on one corner of the tower,
about six feet above the tin roof. The dis
lance from the rod to the diagonal corner is
nearly twenty feet. Now if the rod, at it's
present height, will protect circle Of only
nine feet in diameter (which We believe is
nearly the truth,) we can easily perceive that
the lightning might "strike" the diagonal
corner, from which point the electricity would
follow the tin and be attracted to the rod, by
which it would pass safely to the ground
Tha. such was the case appears also from the
fact that at the nearest points Of contact be-
tween the rod and the tin, (for they did not
quite touch) the rod was slightly burnt, and
a small piece Of tin was melted. Whatever
course the electricity pursued, it is quite cv-
ident that the rod saved the tower. For the
great amount Of metal in the clock and bell
would certainly have attracted the electricity,
and all the machinery and the tower itself
would undoubtedly have been demolished
had not the rod been there to serve as con.
ductor from the tin.
We think it would be prudent to carry up
the rod to much higher point, or put up
other rods on the building
