Skating on Water.

According to Prof. J. Joly of Trinity College, Dublin, skater really glides about on a narrow film of water. con- tinually forming under the skate, and resuming the solid form when relieved of pressure. He shows that the pres- sure under the sharp edge of the skate, along the short portion of the steel curve which is at any moment in con- tact, is great enough to liquefy a thin line of ice, and this gives the skate it's ''bite." When the ice is very cold. the pressure is sometimes inadequate to reduce the melting point sufficient ly, and then, as all skaters know, 1t is difficult to make the skate bite. For very cold ice Prof. Joly recommends hollow ground" skates, because the effective pressure increases with the thipness of the edge.

Sage Advice.

It is not often that lawyer gives better advice, and asks no fee for it, than was once given by certain Irish judge, who must have had both a sense of justice and a sense of humor. A turbulent peasant was witness In a trial before Chief Baron O'Grady. The counsel, after pesterlng him for some time, put a question to him which re- fiected on the witness character. If ye ax me that again, I'll give ye a kiek!" was the answer. The counsel appealed to the court, stating that an answer was necessary to his clients case, and ending up with the query: What would your lordship advise me to do?" ''If you are resolved to repeat the question" replied the court, eFd advise you to move little from the witness"
