In his Comic School Tales" H. j
Barker gives some amusing answers
by children technically known in Eng
land as "Howlers." "a teacher was
giving a lesson on the circulation OF
the blood. Trying to make the matter
clearer, he said: Now boys, if | stood
on my head, the blood, as you know,
would run into it, and | should turn
red in the face Yes. SIR said the
boys. Now continued the teacher,
what / want to know is this: How is
1t that while l am standing upright
In the ordinary position the blood
doesn't run into my feet?' And a lit
tie fellow shouted Why, sir, because
your feet amt empty

FRUITFUL FURNACES
INTENSE HEAT PRODUCES
PRECIOUS STONES.
Scientists Have Succeeded In Pluck.
ing Real Diamonds and Rubies from
the CrucibIe Of the Furnace.

Recent advices from France state
that Prof. Moissan, the eminent sci
enlist and inventor, has actually sue
ceeded in making genuine diamonds
and rubies. He employs for this pur-
pose the electric furnace, which has
been so improved that a degree Of
heat can be produced, approaching the
extreme temperatures, which were I'M
doubtedly a factor in the formation Of
minerals and gems in the interior of
the earth.
The rubies obtained are Of large
size, weighing 10 or Is carats, and in
quality and color equal and ven sur
pass those found in the earth. The
natural forces attending the formation
of diamonds seem to have been more
complicated, and so far the diamonds
resulting from the efforts Of the sci
entists have been very small, but still
they are positively identified as the
carbon crystalline diamond. They
are remarkably clear and bright, and
on a small scale as fine specimens as
natures own product.
The electric furnace has enriched
chemistry with a whole series Of
new compounds. Probably the n of
most value to mankind at large is Cal
cium Carbide. The simple applica-
ton of water to Calcium Carbide gen.
crates the gas Acetylene, which Is
now being commonly used for light.
