Initiative of the Fish.

1t would probably be found that a
smooth surface of iron or steel is
about the worst which we can give
to our ships, for a smooth metal
surface has apparently the property
of attracting and OBTAINING the par
ticles of water in contact with it,
whether by molecular attraction or
otherwise Thereby the water in
immediate contact with the vessels
side or bottom is drawn along with
her, and its particles communicate
their motion to an outer circle of par
tlcles, and so on till vast mass of
water is set constantly in motion
along with the ship.
This is precisely what we want to
avoid, as the essence of the reduction
of fluid friction is to slip easily
through the water with the least DOS
sible disturbance Herein lies, as |
imagine, the great advantage of the
surface structure of the fish. 1t would
probably be found by experiment that
an exact model of fish in any ordi-
nary material-as wood, iron, steel,
etc.-when towed through the water
at given rate would communicate
motion to a straw or light floating
object lying near it's course to far
greater extent than would the real
fish passing through the water at the
same speed. Experiment on this point
would be easy and would be valua-

A Hairbreadth Escape.

Il served all through the late civil
war, i" remarked Jonas Felt of Nash
ua, n. H., and l saw good many
narrow escapes from death. About
the closest shave to being killed ever
saw was this; One day a sick soldier
was lying in tent with his KNAPP
sack for pillow. He was supposed
to be out of harms way, but a solid
shot came flying through the air,
struck the knapsack and carried it
clean away. The only inconvenience
to the invalid was the loss of his pill
low and the sudden letting down of
his head. AS the knapsack was
scarcely thicker than the missile it
might be called literally a hair
breadth escape. st. Louis Globe
