How TO Find Out the Longest Hour of
the Day or Night.

How to Find Out the Longest Hour Of
the Day or Night.
Actual and repeated experiments have
shown, says It'd Bits, that the nearest hour
of the day or night may be ascertained in the
following very cureoGs way: Make small
running loop In pice Of sewing thread about
foot in length place a shilling in this loop
see that the coin is accurately bisected BY the
thread, and then draw the loop tight up, 50
that the shilling is firmly slung at one end Of
the thread. Put on a solid table glass
tumbler with fairly wide mouth. Rest your
right elbow on the table in firm and easy
position, so as to avoid any shakiness in
your hand hold the other end of the thread
between your first finger and the ball of the
thumbd. e., the heshy top joint of the thumb
so that the thumb nail Is undermost, and a
few inches above the middle of the mouth of
the glass Now il you keep your hand quite
steady, the movement Of the coin, which is
hanging inside the tumbler will become less
and less until the shilling is motionless.
Then, in half minute or so, very slight
and regular vibration will commence the
coin oscillating from side to side like
pendulum, and gradually increasing
the length OF movement until it gen
thy strikes the side Of the glass. This strike
goes on in the most regular and automatic
way, first on ore side Of the glass and then on
the other until, say, eight strokes have been
struck; the vibrations OF the coin then dimfn-
ish in length, until the suspended shilling
again becomes motionleSs and hangs in the
watch and find that o'clock is the nearest
hour. / have tried this over and over again,
deliberately setting about the experiment
without bias or any intention OF influencing
the swing Of the coin, and also being ignorant
OF the time, and when my hand has been
steady the right time has invariably been
struck. There IS something very curious
about this phenomenon. Whether the thread
is influenced by the pulse In the ball Of the
thumb or whether there is some unconscious
transference OF intention" from the brain 10
