Have you ever tho Ight of the dis
tance you travel Will you were out on
an hours sHoll} TJssibly you walk
three miles within ne hour, but that
does not by any u ans represent the
distance you travC The earth turns
upon its axis ever twenty-four hours.
For the sake Of rJund figures we viii
call the earth's circumference "a. 600
miles, and 50 you must have Travelled
during your hours stroll 1000 miles in
the axial turn Of the earth.
But that is not all. The earth makes
n journey around the sun every year.
and a long but rapid trip it is. The dis
lance Of our planet from the sun we viii
put at %, 600, 900 miles. That is the
radius of the earth's orbit-half the
diameter of the circle, as we will call it.
The whole diameter is therefore 1S4.-
600, 900 miles. and the circumference
being the diameter multiplied by 81, 416,
is about 57S, 900, 900.
This amazing distance the earth
travels in its yearly journey, and divid
ing it by 365 we find the daily speed
about 1856, 900. : ten to get the dis
lance you rode around the earth dur
ing your hours walk divide again by
t~wenty-four, and the result is about Co.
900 miles, but eve this is not the end Of
your hours trip. The sun, with his en-
tire brood of planets, is moving in space
at the rate Of 16O. 900, 900 miles in a
year. This is at the rate Of a little
more than 43s, 900 miles a day, or Is, $50
miles an hour.
So, adding your three miles of leg
travel to the hours axial movement Of
the earth. this to the earth's orbital
journey, and that again to the earth's
excursion with the sun, and you find
you have Travelled in the hour IS, 253

Among the chief social conditions
necessary for conversation are Theses:
The members of any social group must
neither be too intimate, too numerous
nor too unequal. In family life, men
and women, long familiar, are apt TO
know too much and 10 hope too little.
Few, indeed, are the strictly domestic
circles in which mental energy would
be found for much sustained or ami
mate conversation of the right sort
Some may be too selfish to exert them
selves there. Others . chilled By
their surroundings. They find them
selves underestimate; or, worse, they
know every n there so well-again
and again have they travelled over each

THE startling fac, j. shown by rt-
poris Of the Massachusetts Commits
siOners OF Prisons that during the last
fifty years. while the population
of the State has only rtbled
the number of criminal has increased
fifty fold. There is one prisoner TO
every 400 inhabitants in the state, and
in Boston one TO every 222inhabitanrs.
This large proI %Ortion, however, in.
eludes e-cjmmitments. These facts
are interpreted by Mr.. William P.
Andrews, for many years clerk Of the
criminal court at salem, Moss. a. evil
dence that the 'reformatory" conduct
OF prisoners has caused an charming
increase of crime, ana that the suusti-
tuition Of rsformatory for pguitive
{ eatment is fast bringing as TO state
socialism through the attrucuveue-s Of
prison-life. Mr.. Andrews will con-
tribute an article 10 thtO Forum,
containing TIE results Of many years
observation of the work ng Of The two
systems.
