A Light Seen Sixty Miles.

The penetrating powers and ranges
of powerful lights, such as are en-
ployed in lighthouse service, rapidly
decrease as the ratio of their luminous
power increases. For instance, light
of 8, 200, 900 candle power in the Brit
ish channel has in average weather u
luminous range of about forty-four
nautical miles, while if the light be
increased to the power of 10, 000, 900
candles, the luminous range is only
five miles more, or forty-nine miles.
According to current practice lights
up to 900, 900 candle power are OBJ
tanned by means Of mineral
oil lamps, while electric lights
are used for higher powers
and almost any power may thus be
obtained. The highest power yet at.
tempted is about SO, 00o,0 at Pen
mark point, in the department of Fin
istere, France, which when completed
will be the most powerful lighthouse
illumination in the world. The height
of the tower in which it is to be locat-
ed is about sixty-three meters, enabling
it to be seen during the day from dis
tance of eighteen miles i n fine wealth
er. During the night this light will
be visible for sixty miles. The ro-
tundity of the earth will prevent the
rays from striking the eye directly at
distance of more than thirty miles,
but the sky overhead will appear il
Eliminated for thirty miles more. The
estimated cost of this lighthouse is
about S120, 900.

An Unfailing Sign OF Longevity,

Starting from the base OF the big
toe there is distinct line. That is
the life line. In one foot it will curve
along until it terminates under the in
step far towards the lower base OF the
little toe. This means long life. If
broken in the hollow of the foot it de-
notes sickness at middle age, and if
it terminates in the hollow of the foot
it means snort life. This line is tho
most interesting one on the foot The
experiments that have been conducted
lately have proven this to be an almost
unfailing reading OF longevity.

But that was oil. They knew not

head resting on his heart, they heard
