EDGE TooLs.-All cutting and piercing
edge tools operate on the principle of the
wedge. A brad-awl furnishes an example
which all can readily understand. The
cutting edge of the awl sewers the fibers
of the wood as the instrument enters, and
the particles are compressed into smaller
compass, In the same manner as when a
piece OF wood is separated by wedge. a
chlsel is wedge In one sense and an ak,
drawing knife or jack knife is also wedge
When keen-edged razor is made to clip
hair or remove a mans beard, it operates
on the principle of the wedge. Every in
telligent mechanic understands that when
a wedge is dressed out smoothly it may be
driven in with much less force than if its
surface were left jagged and rough. The
same idea holds good with respect TO edge
tools. II the cutting edge be ground and
whet to as fine an edge as may be practical
with fine. gritted milestone, and if the
surface back of the cutting edge be ground
smooth and true, and polished neatly, so
that one can discern the color of his eyes
by means of the polished surface, the tool
will enter whatever is to be cut by the APP
plication of much less force than if the sur
faces were left as rough as they usually are
when the tool leaves the grindstone. All
edge tools, such ss axes, chisels and planes,
that are operated with a crushing instead
OF drawing stroke, should be polished
neatly clear to the cutting edge, to facil-
itate their entrance into the substance TO
be cut.

No ATMOSPHERE IN THE MooE.-At a
recent meeting of the Photographic Society
of France, NJ. Jansen handed round a
magnificent proof upon the long discussed
question of lunar atmosphere. In speak
ing upon the subject ne said: "SHppose
for moment that the moon is surrounded
by an atmosphere, what would be the re-
suit if we took Photographic view of it
during an eclipse? The lunar disc would
be sharp enough, but there would be q
gradual decline in density, as in Wig
netted portrait. This is exactly the con-
trary which took place, as the proof will
show. The lunar disc is very sharp, and
the negative is rather intensified near the
disc, probably from refracted light" Nj.
Jansen appears to doubt the existence of
lunar atmosphere.
