The law making 50 pupils the limit

OF value to note the Interpretation of

IN the November issue of the Journal of
Education:
Sixty.iive Pupils the Limit y understand

Answer You are correct We alluded to
this law last month. Chapter 256, laws of 1905.
provides that If 10 pupils or more are enrolled
during any one school term in district having
schoolhousc of one room only il shall be the
duty of the electors to hold IA meeting for the
purpose of authorizing the board To make pro

the district to forfeit it's share as above stated
In order that district may know about what
the loss would he it may be stated that the
made last December was 81 g8
per capita that less than twenty-five cents per
capita was the income from the original stat,
school fund, leaving at least 81 10 as the income
from the 40 of Il mill tax. Ttis means that

TRY THIS EXPERIMENT.
Why a Redhot Poker Does Not Hiss
in Boiling Water.

If red hot poker be thrust into cold
water it misses and sputters; IL into
boiling water there is no commotion.
When, in the first experiment, cold
water comes in contact with the hot
iron there is sudden and explosive
generation Of steam, which causes the
liquid to be scattered with kissing
noise, consequent upon the bursting
of innumerable bubbles.
When, on the other hand, poker is
thrust into boiling water, which is
already freely giving forth steam, the
introduction of the hot iron by still
further assisting steam production
causes the poker to become at once
surrounded by sheath of vapor,
which effectually prevents the water
from coming into actual contact with
the metal.
This sheath of vapor is comparative
ly bad conductor of heat. so that but
little heat passes from the iron to the
water. There is no commotion, and
the poker can be withdrawn still
glowing brightly.

THE JUGGLING OF FATE

A number of years ago. Amos Rusie,
the famous pitcher of the New York
Club of the National Base Ball League
occupied the lime light of public at
tention through his wonderful per-
Torrance in the centre of the diamond.
At that time he received salary of
$4,000 a year. For some little indis-
cretions he was disciplined by the club
and rather than take the
punishment he retired from base ball
for a year or two; when he got back
into the harness again, his cunning as
4 pitcher had deserted him.
For time he drifted around without
occupation, but later received employ
ment as a lumber hand, with a COM
pensation of $3.50 a day. 1t is now
announced that he has been success
ful in obtaining a position in Cairo,

mliar enough with aerostatics to know
that the sensation is that OF being station

air, all seems moving except the balloon
itself. Well, within an hour we had fallen
toward the earth in an entirely strange re-
gion. Not n thing was familiar and we had
evidently passed beyond the mountains and
were above broad plain.
Immediately beneath us now was a per-
fectly circular disc of variegatcd colors,
surrounded by an ocean Of bright blue, with
here and there feathery cloud The disc
seemed very small In comparison with the
surrounding blue ocean, and we could none
of us understand 1t. The balloon now fell

upward we scared; and within an hour,
during which we felt not the least discom-
fort, we had risen so high that the
earth was now a broad expanse beneath us,

instrument was then sent down, and came
back with the information that the rarifed

below zero. Within the car, the thermome-
tiers registered sixty-two degrees, which
was quite warm enough for comfort. In
another hour we again tested the outer
atmosphere. and found that II had dropped
