Some Wonderful Scientific Facts Regard
ing SOap-Bubbles.
There is scarcely any thing in the
world which seems more utterly outside
the realm of law than soap-bubble.
The delicate film, with its exquisite
floating colors, it's power of instantly
vanishing, leaving no trace behind,
hardly seems as though it could form
link in the memorable chain of cause
and effect which we call physical law.
The atmospheric pressure on a bubble
six inches in diameter is over fifteen
hundred pounds, and yet the fragile
film lies safely between the opposing
forces of nature-the Aressure of the
outer air, the spring of the inclosed
cushion within it, the downward pull OF
gravity, the upward push of the buoyant
atmosphere, and the molecular forces in
the film itself-so long as the bubble
lasts; it is because of an exquisite ad-
justment of ali the forces, physical and
molecular, concerned in it's existence.
This is, of course, the merest COM
monplace, and yet it is one of the COM
monplaces of nature, which, however
well we may know them, never cease tc
be wonderful when they are in any de-
gree realized. There are other laws
governing films which are no less won
erful, though they are Familiarity
known. A heap of bubbles blown
while the is pipe dipped under the sur
face of soapy water looks like chatotic
huddle of bubbles of all sizes and MANY
shapes; but, upon careful examination,
is is found that never more than three
films meet at an unsupported liquid
edge, and never more than four edges
meet at liquid point, and that the
angles are always equal; that is, films
will not meet each other at an unsup.

A Roland for an oliver

In the early days Of this town a doc
tor had occasion to employ neighbor,
lawyer, to take Charge of a case.
Somehow the case never got ahead any.
At the close of each term of court the
doctor would ask the lawyer about it,
only to receive the answer, cit is con-
tinued; the other side got it continued"
AS the costs also continued to increase
the doctor got uneasy, but bided his
time. In the course of years the lawyer
called in the doctor to cure a sore finger,
which failed to heal and remained a
source of annoyance. At last the law
yer, while away from home, called in
another doctor, who happened to hit the
case just right, and when he returned
the finger was well. As soon as he saw
his old client, the doctor, he told him
what the other doctor had done for him,
winding up with the question: doctor,
why didn't you cure my finger as quick as
this other doctor?" The old physician.

THE MUSICAL ACCENT.

An Illustration That Was More Personal
Than Polite.
At trial in the CouA of Kings Bench

English Gentleman" one of the first
Now, SIR" said Sir James Scarlett in
his cross-examination of Cooke, you
say that the two melodies are identical
but different. What am to understand
by that, sir?"
''What l said," replied Cooke, twas
that the notes in the two arrangements
are the same but with different accent
the one being in common while the
other is in triple time; consequently the
position of the accented notes is differ
ent in the two copies"
What is a musical accent?" Sir James
hippantly inquired.
''My terms for teaching music are
guinea lesson" said Cooke, much to
the merriment of the court.
Il do not want to know your terms for
teaching" said the counsel; 81 want you
to explain to his Lordship and the jury
what is musical accent" Sir James wax
ed wroth. "Can you see it?" he con-
tinued.
''No," was the answer
Can you fell it?''
well" Cooke drawled out, "a must
clan can" After an appeal to the Judge
the examining counsel again put the
question. 'Will you explain to his Lord
ship and the jury-who are supposed to
know nothing about music-the mean
ing of what you call accent?''
Musical accent" rejoined Cooke, sis
emphasis laid on certain note just in
the same manner as you would lay stress
on any word when speaking, in order to
make yourself better understood. Twill
give you an illustration, Sir James. If
l were to say, you are donkey, the &C
cent rests on donkey; but if instead !
said 'you are donkey it rests on you,
Sir James, and have no doubt that the
gentleman of the jury will corroborate
me in this" The story is more person
al than polite-nevertheless, it is well
worth telling as an instance of forcible
illustration. 1t is useful, too, since 1t
may serve to impress upon the minds of
that very large circle of people who
plume themselves on being musical
some faint notion of what accent in
music really is. 1t is the outcome of
that wonderful invention, the division
of music into bars, but for which music
might still be only the magical accom-.
plishment of few.-Gentleman's Mag.
