the mere path of the sun in the heavens,
which is only a geometrical curve de-
scribed in space. 1t is necessary to know
where the sun is situated on this curve
at all times. If a point is marked on the
suns path, as above described, for every
hour throughout the year, say three
O'Clock, on succeeding days lie very
close together as compared with points
corresponding to succeeding hours of
the same day. At three o'clock on the
succeeding day the sun will have made
a complete revolution in it's screw
thread path, and will then be at the cor
responding point on the next adjacent
thread. II it were exactly at the cor
responding point for each succeeding
day, all the three o'clock points, for ex
ample would be located on portion Of
a meridian circle, there being "a such
meridians at equal intervals around the
equator.
"This would be strictly the case if the
earth's orbit around the sun were per-
feet circle. Because it is an ellipe, how
ever, the earth travels fastest when
nearest the sun in January, and slowest
in July, gaining in speed every day from
July to January, and losing each day
during the other half Of the year. This
gives rise to the well-known equation
of time, which is accurately calculated
and may be found in the Ephemeris for
every day throughout the year. The
change from day tc day is very small,
but for a considerable portion of the
year the effect is cumulative, so that the
difference between apparent time and
mean time which We use amount to IS
minutes 2O.55 seconds on November 4,
which is its maximum amount.
"The position of the sun at the hour
of three o'clock by mean time is not on
the meridian, but on a curve resemb-
ling a figure g. situated almost symet-
rically about the meridian already de-
scribed. The larger loop of the figure
- Is described during January half the
year, when the earth is moving fastest
and is therefore south of the equator.
Having now formed picture Of the
imaginary path of the sun in the heav-
ems with its system of figure 81 curves
representing hours, we may calculate
how to make sun dial which will indi-
cate the suns position at any time
throughout the year, or, conversely,
which will indicate the correct time for
every position of the sun throughout the
year."

REGISTERS THUNDERSTORM
Apparatus Which Will Observe and
Automatically Record Atmos-
pheric Conditions.

An apparatus intended for observing
and automatically recording thunder
storms was recently described by Prof.
A.. Turpain to the French Physical So
ciety. 1t consists of set of seven
coherers of graduated sensitiveness
connected with an antenna. One of the
coherers, viz, the most sensitive, is
placed in circuit closed through a
Claude relay, while the remaining CO.
herers, which are of gradually increas-
ing sensitiveness, are arranged in open
circuits, so that their sensitiveness is
reduced in q constant proportion.
AS an atmospherical discharge acts
on the apparatus, the starting coherer
(not shown in the diagram) produces
a current serving to disengage the ap-
paratus, when q rotating commutator
driven by a weight is allowed to per-
form a whole revolution and to return
to its zero position. During the time
the commutator is rotating, the connec-
ton OF the antenna with the coherers
is discontinued, thus avoiding any in
duence Of atmospheric discharges, liza

SIMPLE STRENGTH TESTS.
How You Can Indulge in Spirited
Contest Over the Top Of tho
Library TableP

Are your wrists, hands and fingers
strong? Some chaps you know who
are very strong in the arms and back
have but little strength in their grip,
while others who can nearly squeeze
your hand of are not at all muscular
elsewhere.
Here are few strength tests which
are very simple and are lots of fun.
You will be surprised at the results.
for it will not always be the largest
boy of crowd who will win the con-
tests.
Two boys sit facing each other on
opposite sides of a small table and
resting their right forearms and wrists
on the table place the insides of their
fingers together, as shown in the illus
tration. Each boy, while keeping the
lower edge of his hand against the
table, tries to turn over his opponents
hand; that is, force 1t to lie back on

which you have made near the other
end of the first pencil.
This is all, and the picture gives
better idea of the arrangement than
the description does.
But, continues Good Literature, you
must be careful In putting the parts
together-careful to get them Just
right, and especially careful not to cut
yourself.
The distance Of the knife-points from
the pencil-point depends on the size
of the knives and the angle they make
with each other. and after you have
got the balance almost right you can
make it perfect by moving the knife
handles a little toward or from each
other, and by moving the upright pen.
Gil along the horizontal one.
When the balance is perfect you may
carefully set the whole affair turning
about the string, and it will continue
to revolve for a long time.

APPARATUS FOR RECORDING THUN-
DERsTORMs.
BILE to interfere with the records. The
duration Of the rotation is by the way
reduced to minimum.
While performing its revolution, the
commutator will perform the following
operations: /. 1t will introduce sue
cessively the six coherers Of graduated
sensitiveness into the circuit OF high
ly sensitive galvanometer, allowing the
successive reflections Of the latter to
be recorded geographically on a NOV
ing sensitive plate. 2. 1t will decohere
the coherers on which hammer acts
during sufficient interval of time. 3.
1t will throw a checking current of op-
posite direction to the recording cur
rent into the galvanometer through the
coherer. This current enables the de-
cohering of the coherers to be checked,
thus ascertaining whether the ensuing
records are to be counted. 1&'' @..
The intensity of electrical discharges
of atmospheric origin is thus automat-
ica!ly and successfully recorded by the
plumber and magnitude of the deflec-
tions registered; explains the Scientific
American, thus enabling the intensity
of the discharges during a thunder
storm to be recorded from distance,
in terms of time. A Richard recorder
enables the moment of the discharges
to be registered as they follow one an
other.

WOUNDED SOLDIERS NERVE
Wrote Last Message to His Wife
While Doctor Held Back His
Lies Blood.

One day an army surgeon was dNess-
ing the wound of soldier who had
been shot in the neck near the carotid
artery.
Suddenly the blood vessel gave way,
and just as quickly the surgeon thrust
his finger into the hole to stop the
flow.
Doctor" said the soldier, what
does that meaa?"
1T means DEATH" said the surgeon,
calmly.
'How long can I live?" asked the
soldier, whose mind was perfectly
clear.
Until remove my finger" said the
doctor.
The soldier asked for a pen and pa
per, wrote his will and an ahfectionate
letter to his wife, and when the last
thing was done said, quietly:
LET it CO."
The surgeon removed his finger,
the blood rushed out, and in q few
minutes the man was dead.-Cleveland

A Ruse of War.

It is not always policy to ackaow-

critical moment sometimes saves the
day, as in the case described in Mr..
Ripley's "Story of Company F." In 4
close encounter during the civil war
two soldiers, one from each army,
came face to face within short rauge.
Each put up his gun and fired, as it
subsequently appeared, his last cart

man buried itself in q tree, and the
shot of the other passed through the
coat of his enemy. Each man, know
ing his ammunition was gone, sup

The officers subscribed to a fund of

GAVE HER THE PENSION.
How Corporal Tanner, Commands Of
q. A. T., Helped Confed-
- crate Widow.

Corporal Tanner told the following
story the other day of how he passed
a pension:
Il was commissioner Of pensions at
the time" said the gallant corporal.
Il received telegram one day from
Lee, then governor Of Virginia, asking
il he and Senator Barbour, of Vir-
ginia, could see me IL they came to
Washington the next day. OF course,
I answered certainly. They came to
see what was needed in the settlement
Of the long-delayed pension claim of
Mrs. Cooper, widow of Gen. Cooper,
who was adjutant general of the army
in 81, and who went south and was
adtutant general in the confederate
army. He had served with credit in
the Mexican war.
II called the case from tho hles
to my desk and went through it.
The proof was complete in every re-
spect and the fling stamps showed
that it had been for a year or so
before took Office In few minutes
turned to Lee and said:
Governor there is just one trou.
Bile about this case"
"'What is it?' he asked.
Cowardice'
"Fitz flashed in an instant, as
knew he would-we had been friends
for years. Sir said he with an
emphasis which startled my stenog-
rapher, who sat on the opposite side
Of the desk, Gen. Cooper's bravery
was unimpeached and unimpeachable.'
AZ am perfectly aware of that, I
replied. Putting my finger under the
stamped date, which showed when the
final evidence completing the case had
been fled, said: The case should
have been allowed Immediately there
after
"'Ah, I see.' said Gen. Lee, slowly,
he was a confederate soldier
Il remarked that did not wish to
irritate his political sensibilities, but
that he was sure Of making bulls
eyes. I learned that it was case
where a superserviceable subordinate
thought he was saving my democratic
predecessor, Gen. Black, possible
embarrassment by pigeonholing the
claim and keeping 1t from his sight,
otherwise l would not have expert
enced the pleasure I did In putting
the case through and giving to the
fine old lady her due under the law.
The certificate beat the governor and
the senator down to Richmond

AN ICE CREAM CUTTER.
Cylindrical Device That Divides the
Large Block Into Small
Slices or Bricks.

1t is often desirable to cut up large
bricks or blocks of ice cream into
smaller cakes of equal thickness. Cen
orally this is accomplished with knife
of course, each cake being cut separate
ly. In the illustration below is shown
an ice cream cutter designed by New
Yorker, which will cut up block Of
ice cream into many small cakes at
one operation. The body of this device
is of cylindrical form and open at both
ends, the body having preferably two
