Where May the Sun Get Its Heat!

When shooting star dashes into our
atmosphere its course is attended with
an evolution of light and heat owing to
its friction through the air. We were
thus able to account for the enormous
quantity of heat, or of what was equiv
alent to heat, which existed in virtue of
the rapid motion of these little bodies.
Of course, we only see these meteors at
that supreme moment of their dissolu-
ton when they dash into our atmosphere.
1t is, however, impossible to doubt that
there must be uncounted shoals of me-
teors which never collide with our earth
1t must nesessarily happen that many of
the other great globes in our system
must, like our globe, absorb multitudes
of meteors which they chance to encoun-
ter in their roamings. The number of
meteors that will be gathered by globe
will doubtless be greater the larger and
more massive be the globe, and this for
double reason. In the first place the
dimensions of the net which the globe
extends to entrap the meteors will, of
course, increase with its size, and in ad-
dition the more massive be the gl,be the
more vehement will be its attraction and
the greater will be the number of the
meteors that are drawn into its extensive
atmosphere. Of course, this reasoning
will apply in special degree to the sun.
We shall probably be correct in the as
sertion that for every meteor that de-
scends upon this earth at least million
meteors will descend upon the sun. As
these objects plow their way through
the SUMS atmosphere light and heat will
be, of course, evolved.
1t has been cojectured that the friction
of the meteors which are necessarily
rushing into the sun may produce light
and heat in sufficient quantities to aid in
the suns ordinary expenditure. It has
been even supposed that the quantity of
energy thus generated may supply all
that is wanted to explain the extraordi-
nary circumstance that from age to age
no visible decline has taken place in the
intensity of the solar radiation. Here
again is question which we must submit
to calculation. We have first of all to
determine the heat which could be de-
generated by a body of, let us say,
pound in weight, falling into the sun
after having been attracted thither from
an indefinitely great distance. The re-
suit is not little startling; it shows us
that such body in the course of its
friction, through the suns atmosphere
might generate as much heat as could be
produced by the combustion of many
times its own weight of coal consumed
under the most favorable conditions

A Remarkable Railroad.

The most remarkable short line of
railway in the world is probably the sub
merged railway at Onton, near Bilbao,
Spain. 1t runs down an evenly sloping
shore in double line to distance of $50
feet, and has been constructed by a
Spanish engineer for the sole purpose of
facilitating the shipment of iron ores.
The only car is massive iron tower on
wheels in tho shape of pyramid, rising
seventy feet from the track. Upon the
platform of this tower the ores are
placed, and thus they are conveyed to
the vessel = the pyramidal car, whose
wheels are always under water-return-
ing automatically as soon as its cargo has
been mechanically shot into the ships
hold. Commercial Adnertiser.

Servian Military Drums

A curious thing connected with the
6ervian army is the manner in which
nearly all the regiments carry the big
drum. Instead of being slung in front
OF the man who plays it this instrument
is put upon a small two-wheeled cart
drawn by large dog, the latter being SO
trained that he keeps his place even
through the longest marches. The drum
mer walks behind the cart and performs
on the instrument as it goes along. Each
regiment has two or three drums, but
scarcely any of the regiments have a
band.--L London Tyt-Bits.

Simple Substitute for Sea- Water.

A warm salt bath is very refreshing to
any one suffering from exhaustion of
travel or of long shopping expedition
which is as trying to mind and body
as anything that can be undertaken by a
woman. Away from the seashorea very
simple substitute for sea water is cup
of rock salt dissolved in warm water and
added to the bath. When the salt is ir-
ritating to the skin, take a warm bath
and sponge off with mixture of violet
or lavender water and alcohol, about
half and half, and rub briskly with a
warm friction towel. Such method
prevents the exhaustion and danger of
cold which follow warm bath.-Oh

What are they? There is new depai t.
ure in the treatment of disease. 1t con-

ca, and bringing them within the reach of

experienced the ill effects, and thoroughly
realize the absurdity of the claims of
