Never wash the hair with an ordi-

A TOP.
It Spins Over Forty-three Minutes,
owing to Perfect Balance.

owing to Perfect balance
A marvellous top, capable of spinning
43Ia minutes aud then remaining erect
and still. has been constructed by
Professor Charles Jacobus, for many
years superintendent of the New
Brunswick tN. ID public schools, but
now of Springfield. Mass The inventor
of this top guards it carefully and new
| err it TO pass out Of bis hands
Trc~udSSnun scores OF times before
scientists in New York. Philadelphia
and many other cities. He spun it n
short time ago before he Boston So
ciety of Civil Engineers. who deyot-
ed one hour to watching it The in
yentor calls il Il scientific top. and
when it is not in use he locks it up in
a Ease and carries the key With him.
This wonderful top is made of bronze
and looks like the small sized hum
ming tops the boys buy in the stores for
5 cents. 1t was constructed under the
direction of Professor Jacofus. who
had the pieces made by several differ
ent mechanics. The top is spun by a
! string. and the inventor always spins
it on a plate. He has Il small piece of
bronze which he places over the upper
end of the rod while be winds the cord
around tie same. as is done in a hum
ming top: then he places it on the
plate. holds il firmly by the little
bronze attachment Mt the head and
pulls the string. As the string leaves
the top he remoye the attachment
suddenly, aud the top spins on.
The point of the top upon which II
spins is ahou rs large as the head of a
small needle. and it is so true and deli
cate that the resistance is kept at a
minimum. The inside of the top is so
balanced that when the top ceases to
revolve it viii remain erect unless it Is
Jared. The rod that runs through the
center is about an eighth of an inch in
diameter and about five inche from
the sharp point on the bottom to the
small cap on the head. The top body
is three Inches in diameter.
The whole secret of the top is be-
iieved to he in the perfect balance and
the weights inside of the bronze body.
The entire top weighs about o u
/ ounces and is wound with about ten
inches of string.
When Professor Jacohus lectures he
| fore schools on educational institu-
tons. he has a habit of spinning the
| top and using il To illustrate the beauty
