SPLITTING SECONDS.


How Minute Intervals of Time Arc 40.
.- curately Measured.
The measurement of minute intervals
of time is one of the most difficult sub
jects met with In the laboratory, and this
is more especially the case as the appa-
ratus employed is often little adapted for
the use Of those who lack experience in
the precision gained by years of expert
mental work In physics A Frenohman
has recently devised photochronograph
which comprises metallic disk, turning
freely on an axis passing through its oen-
tor. The free end Of spring carries
needle point, which bears against the disk.
This spring is timed to give 500 vibrations
per second This rate is determined by
timing the spring so that it vibrates be-
tween known vibrations of 493 and sag
periods per second.
Any want of extreme accuracy in the
determination of tho intermediate points is
not OF grent Importance, as it can be shown
that the difference only affects the fifth
place of deolmals Of single second, OF
course any variation in speed of the disk
does not influence the number of ylbra-
tions OF the spring. BY means Of mag
nesium light traces of the path of the
spring are left upon a sensitive plate
mounted upon the disk. The apparatus is
certainly not new In principle, but the ar
rangement is one which has not been de-
scribed in this particular form.-Philadel.

those who never before
thought of wearing ready

get the cloth, fit, trimmings,

saving in price, and, you

He Who Runs May Read.

compared to Europe every American
city Is far behind the times In the matter
OF lettering the streets" said Paul @.
Bushby, an American artist. Take Paris,
for example. After countless experiments
the city government came to the conclu-
sion that the only satisfactory way of
marking the names of streets where stran-
gers can read as they run was not on the
street lamps nor on small strips OF wood
or tin on house corners, but on permanent
metal plates attached to the corners of
houses. These plates are very large, the
letters are half a foot or more in length
and are raised. These letters are painted
white, while the background is painted in
cobalt blue, which enables one to read the
name of tho streets at night as well as in
the daytime with little difficulty. Every
sign also indicates by appropriate letters
what reimbursement, or ward, the street
Is in, SO that there can BIO no mistake about
the political subdivisions of tho city
When man moves Into another quarter
OF the city, he has only to go to the near
est street corner and look at the sign to
find out In what ward no is living. Signs
on lampposts arc all right In their way,
but tho lamps are often broken, and a
small sign on house corner is 90 times
out OF 100 invisible to the naked eye. -

The MODERN YOUNG MAN.


How He Appears In Mis- Pheasant O. Un.
pleasant Guises.
We have 80 often discussed the modern
young woman In her varied and varying
phases that 1t seems right and proper that
We contemplate the modern young man,
for he appears In as many guises, which,
IL perhaps not quite as pleasing to study,
are at least worth little time in being
disseotsd by tho pen.
To begin with, there is the heavy crea-
ture OF putty oountenance who wishes to
pose as lltterateur. He writes abstruse ar
ticles that are never published. He haunts
the society Of those who have found a
literary footing, and to the circle where
he genuinely belongs he descants Of upper
Bohemia and tries to be as mystifying and
dense as possible. As rule, he succeeds,
and by the truthful is dubbed tiresome,
by tho sycophantic learned.
Then there is tho bustling young bust
ness man, who Is the direct opposite Of the
owllike parsonage just described. He blus-
tiers, he boasts, ho talks shop, but he gsner-
ally succeeds. Time tones him down. but
In his first effusiveness no is wearisome to
all save his proud parents or an employer
that recognizes In the bluster that real
energy that will bring more money into
his own pockets.
The cynical creature of "a who sneers at
oil that Is good, tries hard to appear blaso
and is in reality not half bad is quite
amusing in his endeavor to Impress the
world with his overweening wickedness.
II he were one-fourth as bad as he would
have you suppose, there would be no pa
rade of his misdeeda, but sincere desire to
hide rather than fiaunt his peccadillos. 1t
is the pleasure that he takes in posing as
deep dyed villain that proves more than
all else that ho Ia not what be would have
you think.
That distressing type, the ladylike
young man, need not he dilated upon at
length. He Is too silly to be taken serious
ly and too serious to be treated friyolously;
therefore we dismiss him with sigh that
such type should exist. But when all
others have passed In review there Is one
that comes under no certain type, ia not
olassed with any other man that ever
lived, and though he has many faults he
Is perfect in our eyes, for 1t is love that
makes us blind to his foibles and alive to
his virtues. -Philadelphia Times.
