queer Phenomena of Falling Bodies.

1 am unable to say who first noticed
the peculiar caprices of stone or 9TH
er heavy body dropped from the top
of high tower, but 1t is nevertheless
a curious fact that such objects invari-
ably fall slightly to the east of the per-
pendicular line. Persons of inquiring
turn of mind who ask why this is as it
is may find an answer in the following:
All falling bodies partake of the earth's s
eastward motion to greater or lesser
extent. Therefore during the time oc-
cupied by stone in falling from the
top Of a high tower or other emipence
the earths rotary motion has carried
it an appreciable distance to the east.
The initial impetus of the stone has
carried 1t to the eastward also, there
fore it strikes the earth to the east Of
the perpendicular, varying in degree
according to the height from which it
has fallen.-Exchange.

Reading the Bible.

1t was the meeting of the Christian
Endeavor society. Near the close the
leader suggested that each one should
tell what part of the Bible he read the
most and give the reason.
The last one to speak was a lad who
said, with little hesitation, that he
read the first chapters of Genesis more
than any others.
A look of surprise and curiosity was
manifest in all the listeners as he
went on to give his reason.
"You see 1 always resolve every new
year that 1 will begin and read the
Bible through, but never get very far
and of course always have to make a
new beginning"

Of stone. But in those stony cities the

The Glowworm's Light.

The luminous organ of the glow
worm is a rounded area on the alb
domen, under which is q fatty sub
stance that gives out phosphorescent
light as the result of slow chemical
change. We may regard this as q
'1ove light" which attracts the active
winged males during the hours OF
darkness, for glowworms are of noe
turnal habits. The eyes of the male
are unusually large and well developed
no doubt in order to help him in tine
search for his shining but more slug
gish mate. In some other species, sucf
as the firefiies of south Europe, 1t Is
the males which give out light, and
the reason for this is not clear. Pos
sibly it promotes rivalry in courtship
and it has also been suggested that II
may serve as means Of amusement.

new ROAD
TO THE POST

Preparations have been made to
open the road on Second street thru
Joseph Gussenhoyen's ranch, to con-
meet with the Post road which now
leads to Havre by way of the Concert
Hall.
Through the efforts of VIM. j.
SWanton, other business men on Sec
ond street became interested and d
sufficient amount was subscribed to
purchase a road right Of the China
man who had leased the road right
from Joseph Gussenhoven. The road
will be opened up Immediately. City
Engineer Swearingen has already sur
veyed and staked out the ground,
and when the grading is completed, it
will doubtless be one of the main
travelled thoroughfares into Havre.
FL. W. SUringfellow, f. A. Buttrey
and Frank Chestnut are also interest
ed with Mr.. Swanton in the project,
and the establishment of this road
will add considerable to the promi-
hence Of Second street.
