 From human hearts aglow With heavenly lovef' From a back number of The Catholic
 World, I clip and quote the above verse which was written-I know not when
 by a Father Tabb. Now who Father
 Tabb Is or was l do not know, but his
 little verse Is well worth the piaoe of memory gem to be sung all through the New Year by every Sunday School
 child throughout the days and months of 1s0s Yes. and older children might add to 1t the following from the December issue
 of The Sunshine Bulletin: Blow. bugles of battle. the marches of peace

essary it is when analyzing poetical
sentences or sets Of verses of poetry
10 transpose words, phrases and

Of the whole. so as to obtain the cor
rect grammatical construction. 1t is
surprising how many different render
tugs of one line or verse can be made
without transgressing any of the laws
of grammar, pure and simple. One
line in Gray's "Elegy" can be twisted
Into at least twenty different readings
without materially altering the sense:

INTERESTING EXPERIMENT.

That small quantity of water, say
half a pint, may be made to burst a
strong cask, seems a startling state
ment to make, and yet it is true. 1t is
well-known law Of physics that tho
press ire exerted by liquids increases in
proportion to their depth. Suppose,
therefore, that we have a strong cask
The slaves of this cask may be made
to burst apart by adding a very small
quantity of water to what Is already
In the cask. AS the cask is already
full. some way of adding the water
must be devised. TO do this q hole is
bored In the end or head of the cask
and a long tube of small diameter is
inserted upright. At the upper end OF
the tube is a small funnel, into which
water is poured until the tube becomes
full. and when that point is reached
the cask will burst. This seems almost
Incredible, but it is only a demonstra-
ton Of the law that has been cited.
When the water is poured into the
tube it unites with the water in the
cask, and the depth of the water is
several times as great as it was in
the cask alone. The fact that there is
only small quantity Of water in the
tube makes no difference, for it is now
all one body, and its depth is gauged
from the top of the tube to the bottom
of the cask. AS matter of fact, this
experiment Is only an artificial repro
duction Of what we know takes place
in nature. Some Of her greatest con
vulsions are caused by this very pro-
cess. Suppose, for example, tAat there
is a great mass of rock, under which
there Is cavity filled with water that
has no outlet. Suppose, moreover, that
there is a crack extending from the
surface of the ground through this
mass of rock to the water-filled cavity
underneath. A rock in this condition
Is common thing in nature, the crack
being caused by some disturbance Of
the earth, or by its splitting in the
natural order of things. Now, when it
rains enough to fill that crack, thus
increasing the depth of water in the
cavity, the pressure will become SO
great that the rock will be torn into a
hundred fragments.
