Electric waves Over Hills.

In describing to the Royal institution
in London the latest experiments in
sending electric messages. or signals,
without wires. Mr.. W. III. Preece called
attention to the curious TACT that hills
do not obstruct the passage of the cleo
trio waves to which the transmission of
the signals is due. If, for instance, the
circuit from which the signals are sent
is on one side of a hill. and the receiver
is on the other side, the electric waves,
or some of them, form a bridge over the
hill and fall upon the receiving appa-
ratus on the opposite side. Signals have
been sent, without wires, a distance of
more than eight miles in Bristol chan
mel, and the limit, Mr.. Preece thinks,
has by been reached.-Youth's
Companion.

WHY THE OCEAN BULGES.
How the Action of the Waters L. In
by the Moons
Attraction.

If familiarity does not always breed
contempt, yet at least it generally
breeds Indifference. This is the case
with most of us in regard to the rise
and fall of the tide by the seashore, and
SO the problem as to whether the tide
will serve conveniently to allow the
children to dig in the sand or search for
seaweed looms larger than that pre-
scented by the gigantic forces which
now produce only these somewhat in
significant pulsations of the sea. Yet
the tides should call forth in us a deep
Ell Interest," might almost say an emo
tion-for they are the feeble residue of
Influences which have probably eXer-
cised a predominant control over the
history of the earth and the moon since
an indeterminate but remote epoch in
the past, anG will continue that control
into the distant future. Accordingto the
law of universal E~ravitation, the moor
attracts matter which stands near to
her more strongly than that which is
more remote. 1t follows that the at
traction on the ocean, at the side of the
earth which is nearest to the moon,
must be greater than that exercised on
the solid earth itself. Hence there is a
tendency for the sea to depart from its
natural spherical shape, and to bulge
outward toward the noon. So far the
matter is simple; but it is p~erplexing to
many that the moon should apparently
repel the water lying on the further
side of the earth. This action, how
ever, is not due to any ideal repulsion
from the moor but results from the
fact that on the further side the moon
must attract the solid earth more
strongly than it Zoe the water. On
the nearer side the moon pulls the
water away from the earth. and on the
further side h pulls the earth away
from the water. thus, producing an ap-
parent repulsion of the water to the
extent equal to the attraction on the
other side. In this way there arises a
tendency for the ocean to bulge equally
toward and away from the moon, and
to assume an egg-like shape.-Prof.
George H.. Darwin, in Atlantic.

When the little loved one is sick, when
its brow is fevered, its pulse rapid, its
features pinched with pain and there are
great blue circles under its eyes, the mother
hovers about the bedside, and with anxious
eyes tries to read the meaning of every ex-
preston upon the physicians face.
A woman may save herself almost all of
this worriment about her children if she
will but tax proper care of her womanly
health during the period of CESSATION. A
child born of a mother who is thoroughly
healthy in a womanly way will almost
unfailingly be healthy and robust. DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription acts directly
on the delicate and important organs that
bear the burdens of maternity. 1t makes
them well, strong and vigorous. 1t heals

1t stops facilitating drains. 1t fits for
motherhood and insures a healthy child.
Thousands of happy mothers have testified

Prescription was good to take when with child"
