When a number of clean glass tubes

the water rises in each to a higher
level than that at which 1t stands out

er is the height of the water More
over. the surface of the water is al
ways concave outwards. When SINH
lar tubes are Immersed in mercury.
the results are just the opposite of the
above. The mercury now stands at
lower level inside than outside each
tube. and the mercury surface is al
ways concave downwards- In beth
cases the curvature OF the surface of
the fluid is greater the finer bore of
the tube These are the fundamental
facts which constitute the phenomena
of capillary action, the tubes. with
their fine hair-like bores. being called
capillary tubes. from the Latin Ca
pfllus." hair. In order to understand
the cause of these phenomena it is
necessary to refer to what is known
as the surface-tension of fluids. The
particles of a body of moderate dimen-
sions are kept together by powerful
molecular forces which have one main
characteristic, that they are only sem
sible at insensible distances. From
this 1t is evident that there must be
an essential difference in state be-
tween parts OF liquid close to its
surface and others in the interior of
Its mass. The result OF this difference
is that every liquid may be regarded
as bounded by a surface film which
behaves like a stretched membrane
The tension Of this finn is what is
termed the surface tension OF the fluid.
and its effect Invariably is TO make
the pressure on the concave side ex-
eeed that on the convex side. In the
case OF the capillary phenomena. the
water surface is concave outwards.
and therefore the water Immediately
under the surface film has less pres
sure than that OF the atmosphere to
which its coacaye side is exposed: and
thus. by the ordinary hydrostatic law
II belongs to higher level than the
undisturbed water. the pressure on
which is equal to that of the atmos-
phere. In the case of mercury. on the
other hand, since the fluid surface is
convex outwards. the mercury imme-
diately under the surface-hlm must
have had greater pressure than that
OF the atmosphere. and must there
fore stand at lower level than the
undisturbed mercury.

ectric Headlights to BE Used to Pre-
vsat ColIisions-
An ingenious device for protecting
the rear end of trains against collisions
at night has just been patented by a
St. Louis man. The invention consists
Of second electric 'ssheadlight." or
searchlight. mounted on the roof of
the cab. pointing always TO the rear
Of the train Therefore he calls IL a
"hindlight." and the chief object of
the invention is to protect the hind
end" of the train from being run into
by any train that may be following il
The "hindlight'' rests upon the roof
Of the cab and is attached to end OF a
lever. about eight feet long long. and
Is steadied and controlled by two
parallel rods. By means of simple
arrangement of cylinders and COM
pressed air IL can be elevated six or
seven feet above the roof of the cab
Or swung around at right angles to
either side OF the train. Intense dark
ness. rain, snow or fog simply renders
the light more prominent The engin-
ser can instantly change the light to
red or white as occasion may require
BY moving a single lever above his
head the engineer can sweep the hori-
zon in half circle to the rear of the
train with a powerful bburst of light,
flashing it back and forth to attract

across the country, when he happens
to be stopped on curve. lighting up
the track. the sides of cut. or any
prominent object, such as rocky
blum. a house, barn. or clump Of trees.
Owing to the elevation OF the light
and its great power 1t will be practi-
cally impossible for a rear train to
get within a dangerous distance of
one ahead OF 1t without seeing the
warning light. There are many oc-
easions on every trip when the hind
light" can be used to great advantage.

backing into a siding. In case of an
accident of any kind. In locating

Earliest of all forms of headgear was
the cap. The hat did not really come
into comm5n use till the 18th century.
In the time of Charles /. the queer.
sugar-loaf-nhaped hat came into fash
ion. II was wound with a rich band
and trimmed with a feather Con-
slant balancing of the head was nec-
essary to keep II on. The hat was
taken up by the Puritans, who salts
fed their bitter consciences by dis
carding the frivolous band and the
wicked feather. Charles ii. brought the
French periwig into England. and the
tall hat went out to make way for the
low. broad -brimmed thing. gorgeous
with feathers and jimcracks. These
broad brims became broader. At last
II became necessary to turn them up.
Fi-st this was done at the back. .final-

of this extravagant style of headgear

to carry 1t under the arm as much as
possible. The French revolution.

worn the cooked hat took on the
