Are Atoms Magnetse

It was long ago demonstrated that
the earth is great magnet. That
the sun is also a magnet is conclu-
sion indicated by many facts accumu.
lated by modern science But if the
sun is magnet. why are not the
stars also magnets, although some of
them may surpass the sun in magni-
tude almost as much as the sun sur.
passes the earth?
So we find that there is almost no
limit to the enormous size that a
magnet may possess. But lately the
question has been raised whether the
same truth does not extend in the
opposite direction. We certainly
cannot divide magnet into pieces so
small that any one of them will cease
to be a magnet, and it is suggested
that this division might go on down
to the original atoms of which mat
ter is composed, without loss of the
magnetic property.
Indeed, there are facts which seem
to show that AL atoms may be mag
nets. and that their magnetic rela-
tions to one another may account for
certain chemical effects.
So the infinitely great and the in
flnitely little lead to similar conclu-
SiOnS.

Electricity In a shrevd swind,..

It was but plain mineral spring,
but the cups that the patients drank
from were fastened by a brass chain
to an iron bar which inclosed the
mouth of the bubbling spring. You
were prevented from coming too close
by another circular iron railing about
eight feet across The ground about
the spring was naturally moist, and it
was either this ground or the iron
which was one of the ends of an open
electric circuit The cup held by the
chain was the other end. The per-
son drinking simply completed the
circuit through the body, and when
he had finished the attendant kindly
and Immediately removed the cup
from his hand. The drinkers always
felt that delightful tingling sensa-
tion," and rejoiced that they had
found the fountain of youth. Some
imagined they even felt the new
blood coursing through their veins. A
small induction coil ingeniously con-
cealed and connected with the cup
and railing was a cheap method for
producing that ''invigorating feel

Where Silence Reirns.

There is a place down South where
one can hear the heart Of man six
feet away beat distinctly and clearly.
Each systole and diastole is as unmis-
taxable as the tick of mantel clock.
It is down in the Mammoth Cave,
Kentucky. Our guide stopped our
party by the shore of the Echo River
and made us put out orr lanterns,
that we were in darkness which might
be felt. 1t was the darkest place in
the world. Well, the idiot lost his
matches, and there wasn't one to be
had among us all. Scared wasn't the
word. We were three miles under
ground. The guide treasured US by
declaring that relief must be had in
a few hours at most That didn't
reconcile US much. We stayed there
ten mortal hours before search party
sent out from the hotel reached US
Then 1t was, as we sat in the dark
ness, we observed the heartbeats-
not only our own, but those of our
companions. We thought it was all
due to the humping that came of
our scare. 1t wasn't, though. For
after we were found and on our way
out, we tried it and learned that it
was possible anywhere in the cave, so
great is the awful silence.

An Evening Musicale.

In giving a successful evening
musicale there are almost as many
things to be avoided as there are to
be accomplished, and it would seem
almost that it N ight be wise TO voice
the suggestions which it is purposed
to give here in the NEGATIVE form,
writes Mrs. Hamilton Mott in an ex-
haustiye paper telling how to con-
duct one of these popular affairs, in
the Ladies' Home Journal. There
are, in any case, few Important If
general. sdon'ts" that may well pre-
face the more detailed suggestions
which will be found below, and these
are addressed to those contemplating
the holding of musical evening,
either large or small
Don't invite people If you cannot
make them comfortable; remember
that their homes are places of rest
and ease, and that unless you can give
to them entertainment and comfort
they will grudge the hours spent
away from their own vines and fig
trees.
Don't include mediocre talent
among your performers on such an
occasion; avoid your best friend, if he
or she thinks. without proper founda-
tion for the belief, that musical
ability is his or hers.

the defense. ''The man is going tn

The judge, however, seemed i'm

But wouldn't he hear the struggle

A Vital Question.

II am thoroughly convinced" said
the village doctor, "that farmer Pc
terson's life could have been saved If
the roads between here and Burton's
Corners had been as good as they
might have been. The distance is
ten miles. 1t took young Peterson
half an hour longer than it should
have taken him to get here, and me
half an hour longer to drive there;
and the hour made exactly the differ
ence between life and DEATH"
There is no reason to believe that
this case was an isolated one. Time
means not only money, but often hui
man life as well. Country doctors
are in great degree dependent upon
the condition Of the roads
It sometimes happens that the
state of the roads is such that
the physician cannot reach some sick
bed at all; and this not as the result
of great natural calamity, such as a
food or great snowfall, but because
the people whose business it is to build
and repair the roads have not built
them in such way that they will re-
main fairly passable in continued wet
weather.
There are many matters besides
mere convenience bound up in the
question of good roads. A general
improvement in them would noU only
add greatly to the wealth of the peo-
pie, but would make their lives easier
and sometimes, no doubt, longer

The Pope's Bible.

In 1912 Pope Julius IL was in need
of money and endeavored to borrow.
He was at that time the possessor Of
a Hebrew Bible which, for some cause,
the Jewish people OF Venice desired
to purchase. They offered to pay its
weight in gold for the book, which
was so heavy that the united strength
of two men could barely lift it. The
book was weighed, and the estimate
made Of its weight in gold was sI05, :
600, Julius deemed this sum made
quate and declined to sell, so that
the vatican Hebrew Bible is Justly
entitled to the distinction of being
the most valuable book in the world.

That simians have deep sense Of
humor no one will deny who Is
familiar with their conduct and
motives. I have witnessed In many
instances, writes Mr.. Garner, prac-
tical Jokes worthy of human beings
In large cage in the Philadelphia
garden were kept at one time about
twenty monkeys. Among them were
two Entellus monkeys, which species
is quiet, sedate, rather wise-looxing,
with gray beard and hair and the
mien of the stole. He has very
long, straight tail, and habit OF sit
ting high up from the ground ard al
lowing this long tail to hang at full
length. In the same cage were three
or four brown Cebus monkeys who de-
vote much of their time to exercise
and fun. While an Entellus monkey
would cling to the cage or sit on q
perch some ten or twelve feet from
the ground, one of these little brown
monkeys would steaIthily creep up to
him, grasp the end Of the long tail
and swing with all his might. OF
course the Entellus monkey could not
lift his tail because OF the weight Of
the little monkey clinging to it, nor
could he reach it; the only thing that
he could do was to climb down the
side of. the cage with his unwieldly
caudal burden until he could reach
the floor.
During this operation the brown
monkey kept swinging until his own
tail touched the floor, at which In
slant he would release his hold and
spring for life to the top Of the cage,
followed by the Entellus monkey and
the screams of the others BY the
time he, reached a point where he
could attack his little tormentor, who
would show some signs Of resistance
and cause him to pause for moment,
another brown monkey would seize
hold Of the long tail and swing like
prize boy at Sunday-scnool picnic.
I have watched this game for an
hour at a time. and been as much
amused as the little monkeys them
selves. / observed that they took
their turn in catching the tail with
almost the same regularity as base
ball players take their turn at the
bat.

A Piece of Advice.

In our sleeper was an old man who
was going to Buffalo. He looked
feeble and ill and he had a bad cough.
About the time we were ready to &C
to sleep his cough grew worse, and
after bit one man in particular be-
gan to kick. He called to the con.
ductor and the porter and made more
fuss than the man with the cough.
He got up and went to bed
again, and got up a second
time, and it was o'clock in
the morning before any of us got any
sleep When we turned out in the
morning the kicker was still kicking,
says the New York Sun.
Look here, porter" he said to
that official, ''has that old chap with
the cough got off yet?"
"No, sah."
"Where is hep"
"Ober dar, sab He hain't dun got
up yit."
swell, when he does 1 want to give
him a piece of advice"
Eyes, sab."
Fifteen minutes later, as the kicker
was on his way to the dining-car, he
stopped at the old mans berth and
said:
''Come, old man, it's time to get up
and cough"
Receiving no answer, he parted the
curtains and looked in and next in
slant fell into seat across the aisle.
We went to see what was the matter
and found the old man dead and cold,
with his hands locked across his
breast. He had been dead for two or
three hours.
"Have you any advice to offer him?"
one of the men queried Of the kicker,
who sat pale and trembling.
At that moment the train came to
halt at a station and the kicker
grabbed for his grip and disappeared
from the train without word in
reply.

that the excess areas of igneous rocks,

other more complicated data it has
been inferred that the elimination of
the calcareous matter now found in
all the sedimentary strata must have
been going on through a period of
900, 900, 600 years! This, therefore,
represents the minimum age of the
