The Glass Diving Bell.

Let us suppose that your teacher OF
physics offers prize to the member of
the class who will show how lump of
sugar may be put under water without
Its getting wet. That seems to be a
somewhat difficult problem, doesn't
1t? But it may easily be solved, and
here is the way.
You know that If you put an empty
glass tumbler down into basin of
water. the water will not rise in the
tumbler so high as IL is in the basin,
because the air in the tumbler pre-
vents it. Now that knowledge Will
help us to solve the teachers problem.
Get your mother to lend you glass
cheese cover and wide-mouthed
glass jar; say. an empty pickle jar.
Stand the cheese cover upside down
on the mouth of the jar, the knob OF
the cover going inside the jar; 1t will
thus stand firm.
Now pour the cheese cover two
thirds full of water. and on the water
lay a round. fiat cork of smaller
diameter than the inside of the glass
tumber. Place lump of sugar on the
cork. and then very carefully put the
'tumbler mouth over the cork, holding
the tumbler perfectly straight up and
down, SO as not to overturn the cork.
Press the tumbler down into the
water slowly and gently, and you may
finally let the rim rest on the bottom
of the cheese cover. with the cork
floating on the surface of the water
in the tumbler The lump of sugar
thus lies on the cork above the water,
and yet 1t is really below the level oil
the water in the cheese cover.
Before performing this feat in pub
lie 1t would be well to test the depth
OF the water In the cover. Two-thirds
may be little too much to pour In.

Festivals Of the Dolls.

Japanese girls have pretty custom
in the Festival of the Dolls, whicE
occurs about the first of May each
year. 1t is held at the time the peach
trees burst into bloom, and Europeans
who have seen the celbration have
named it the Festival of the Peach
Flowers.
On this day the girls and wo,hen
array themselves in holiday attire.
The mothers arrange room with the
blossoming sakura boughs and mako

The dog goes at once to the sack, and,
taking it carefully by the middle. so
that neither end will drag on the

office. where he deposits his trust in
safe place.
The dog is now five years old, is two
feet seven inches in height, and strong
of limb. He has no difficulty in carry

erandfather,s Necklace.

This is trick of classic origin, as
1t was. performed long ago by Greek
jugglers. Either large beads or rings
may be used in its performance.
Prepare beforehand by getting two
ribbons exactly alike and the samd
length; double each so the ends come
together: tie the ribbons at. the folds
with thread exactly the same color.
Slip on the rings and give two OF
the spectators the ends to hold. They
will believe that each is holding the
ends of the two different ribbons.
Have them hold the ribbons slackly.
and then ask each of them for the
ends they hold and exchange with
them the ends they before held.
Take hold of one Of the rings at the
center, dexterously break the thread
that holds the ribbons and slip off tho
rings.

Reptiles That Walk Erect.

Lizards of several sorts can walk
and run easily on their hind legs
The Australian water lizard, which
is three or four feet in length. keeps
quite erect when traversing long dis
tances on land. 1t is found in the
neighborhood of river banks and
passes much of its time in shallow
water, says Pearson's Weekly.
The frilled lizard of Queensland
also travels on its hind legs on level
ground. keeping the frill folded while
running. When attacked 1t expands
this fold of skin, which stands out
like ruff at right angles round the
neck, giving it a most formidable
aspect, SO that dogs that attack and
kill larger lizards will often retreat
before a frilled lizard at bay.
There is also a tree lizard in Aus
tralia that moves in similar way.
All these species walk on all fours
when merely moving about or going
on short distances.

brush-footed. because the first pair of
legs look like too brushes, and are en-
tirely useless for crawling. 1t also diff
fers from its relatives in its peculiar
habit of migrating like the birds.
When the cold days of fall come, tho
milkweed butterflies have great
family gathering. and hundreds of
them start off together on their jour
ney southwark to SUMMER lands. Some
times you may be fortunate enough to
catch glimpse of them resting over
night on some convenient tree, when
they literally cover its branches like
some strange kind of flower.
The milkweed caterpillar is green,
as is also his winter home, the chrysf
alis. This is particularly beautiful as
BELTS monarch. for it is lavishiy
decorated with yellow spots. which
make it look like a green fairy pal
ace put together with golden nails.
Look for 1t hanging on the under ssaij

A placard announcing Fine Skating
on Crystal Lake" prompted we'll
known Reading man to indulge in that
diversion the other day. Not having
essayed 1t for some years he soon
showed his want of practice by sit
ting down very unceremoniously on
the ice, which operation he repeated
at frequent intervals. One small boy.
observing him in that position. skated
up and said:
Mister. you haven't got your skates
on right"
Looking critically at his foot. the
other asked: How, then, would you
have me fix them?'
"Fasten them to the seat CT your
pants" replied the youth as he glided

convincinq Evidence.

In a secluded corner of one OF Phil
adelphia's clubs the other evening n
number of physicians were comfort
ably ensconced, and the talk turned
to tales of their profession.
One OF the doctors present related
the following at his own expense: on
a chilly morning last winter, as | re-
turned to my office after several early
and important visits, | asked OF my
servant, Thomas. did Mrs. s. get
the medicine | ordered for her yester-
day? I suppose So replied Thomas;
L see all the blinds are down this
morning"
AS the gathering recovered from
their laughter one of the fraternity re-
marked: That is as good as the story
of an old classmate of mine who sent
in death certificate with his name
signed in the space reserved for Cause
of Death"
