Il IS proved that when air Is heated Il
Fises, and also that II expands, and per
haps some Of us are now wondering
why II should rise. This Is rather
hard subject but perhaps we may be
able to explain II. In the nrst place
air presses on the earth everywhere
with a certain pressure. This Is be
cause Of the attraction Of gravity, which
pulls upon or gives weight" to every
form Of matter, whether solid, liquid on
gaseous. Now. air is matter in a gas
eous form. 1t has very little weight
but still It has some Close 70 the sur
face Of the earth air presses heaviest
because IA Is pressed down, not only by
its own weight, but also by the weight
Of the air above, and q lsi- presses In

GAUGE it is so easily moved and can be
pushed or made to flow from one point
TO another very much like water As
we 20 up from the surface OF the earth
the air presses less and less, because
there Is less cir above it. If you think
this out. you win see that any body
