The proposal to sheath ships with
copper coated with mercury is at

such an arrangement would effectual-
ly prevent barnacles from adhering
to the bottom Of the vessels. In order
to keep the mercury on and to pre-
vent oxidation the copper would be
constantly charged with electricity.

DANGEROUS AAINDRoPs.
Why They DO Not XIII Those Whom
They Fall Upon.


OF course we all know that 1t would
be an utter impossibility for storm
clouds to form and rain TO fall were
it not for the forty odd miles of at
mosphere that rise above our heads.
But, supposing it were possible for
human beings to exist in an atmos-
phere that only rose to level with
their mouths and that storm clouds
could form in region outside such a
low-grade atmosphere, then every
raindrop would prove as fatal to
earthly creatures as II it were steel
bullet fired from a dynamite gun, says
Nature.
All falling bodies whether they be
crystal raindrops or meteorites, fall
with what philosophers term "a
uniform accelerated motion" In
other words, if body be moving at a
certain velocity at the expiration OF
one second from the beginning OF its
fall it VIA 20 moving with twice that
velocity at the expiration of two sec
onds, gaining speed at uniform rate
throughout the whole course OF its
falE
Careful experiments have shown
that the rate per second at which
bodies acquire velocity in falling
through the air is thirty-two feet a
second at the end of the first second
from starting At the end of the
next second it is going at the rate OF
sixty-four feet a second, and so on
through the whole time of falling.
Where the velocity is known the
space through which the body has
fallen may be ascer tanned by multi
plying the velocity at that period by
the number of seconds during which
it has been falling and dividing the
result by two.
This rule applies, however, only to
bodies falling through a vacuum.
The resistance Of our atmosphere ma
terially retards raindrops, hailstones,
erolites and all other bodies which
fall through it, and were it not for
the resistance it presents every rain
storm would be disastrous to the
human race, as each drop would fall
with a velocity great enough TO pen
citrate the full length of full-growr
mans body.

Love in Lodgings
CHAPTER IV-CoNTINUED.
BY FLORENCE WARDEN.

CHAPTER IV-CoNTINUED.
Without needing this and other
comments of the Same kind, Cameron
rushed again into the garden. But
being afraid that the sight of him
might have deterrent effect upon
tho lady who had received such rough
treatment at his hands, he slipped
into rickety erection of trellis-work
which was half arbor, half tool shed,
and waited for the sound of her foot
stops on the other side of the wall.
But he had to wait q very loHg
time.
First, the stars came out, and then
the carvings; and by the time the eX-
pected sound did reach his ears he
felt that he was honeycombed by ants.
Then he was astonished to find how
fast his heart was beating. He heard
the soft football on the stone path,
heard the splash Of the water from
her can on the flowers. Should he go
out now and humbly address her? He
felt that he should choke at the first
word. Then he thought that he
would sneak back into the house,
How could he ever have imagined
that he would have the courage to
speak to her? He had quite made up
his mind that he would retire quietly
when, to his establishment, he heard
the lifting of a latch, and moment
later he saw dimly through the trellis
work in the fast fading twilight the
figure of the slender girl in his gar
den. She came forward stealthily
with light, quick steps, straight tC
his hiding-place, put her watering
pot down on the path, and with one
hand she arranged the struggling
branch OF creeper, with the Other
she felt inside the arbor for some i'm
plement she wanted.
And the soft fingers of this second
hand came in contact with the bristly
surface of a mans face.

ing place among the carvings and
stood humbly on the garden-path be-
fore her.

"Only bit of bass l thought had

Cameron sprang into the arbor
again, with so much energy that the
loose boards Of the flooring flew up
and ratified around him. He brought
the bass and with his pocket-knife
cut it into small pieces for her to tie
up the struggling branches of honey
suckle and Virginia creeper. He was
falling more in love every minute
1t was only just light enough for him
to see the outline of her face, but it
seemed to him to be of almost super
natural loneliness. 1t was really a
pretty little face enough, with small,
delicate features expressive of much
feminine gentleness and refinement.
She began to apologize for her intru-
sion; while Cameron, on his sid0, felt
inclined to apologize for his very ex.
istence in a world which held so love-
ly creature.
"You see," she said, 81 am staying

service for her, and stood by while
she watered the flowers, and tied up
such of them as needed this attention.
This is an awfully nice garden.
