HOW THE TEACHER TAUGHT
An Example Of the Original View Of
Things a Child May
Take.

In their efforts to teach children, pa
rents are often surprised by the original
views which the youngsters take, and by
their presentation of views which, while
they may be but partial, are at least cor
rect and discriminating so far as they go,
says Edwin J. Prindle, In st. Nicholas.
It occurred to father, who noticed
carpenter hammering upon the roof OF
q distant house, that he would give his
little son (eight years old lesson in
physics, by calling attention to the fact
that the blows of the hammer could be
seen before the sound made by them
could be heard, and explaining that the
difference in time between the seeing OF
the blows and the hearing of the noise
was due to the fact that light travels
much faster than sound. He sought to
introduce the subject by asking the boy
II he understood why it was that he
could see the hammer fall before he could
hear the noise of the stroke. He was as
tonished to receive the reply: yes: It's

DEAF ARE NEVER SEASIck.

This was found out" he said.
when whole class of deaf mutes went
abroad some years ago, and. despite q
particularly rough passage, none OF
them wanted to lie on tho deck and beg
somebody to heave them overheard.
That's the seasick feeling, you
know. A little Investigation proved
that the stomach nerves are mostly con-
trolled by those Of the ear, and that deaf
persons are not nearly so liable to the
nausea that comes from the rolling mo-
ton of ship as are others.
The experiment of saturadng q ball
OF cotton with cocaine and thus dulling
the hearing has been tried by ship sur
geons since. It gives relief to those who
dread any sort Of q sea voyage. but,
after all. the best way to do Is to feed

CHANNEL WAVES NOT HIGH
Greatest Height Observed in, New
Harbor at Dover Fifteen
Feet

At the international engineering con-
gress. recently held in St Louis. some
unusual figures We're given on the sub
Ject of the height and power of ocean
waves, particularly as regards their eff
feet upon harbor works. In the course
OF paper dealing with the new Dover
harbor it was reported, says the Scien-
ufic American. that since these works
had been in progress no wave of great
er height than Is feet had been record
ed-a fact which will be surprising to
those who have experienced the mis-
cries of the Doyer-Calais passage. The
fact is the most remarkable because at
the entrance to the Tyne waves from
50 to 40 feet high have been measured,
and the last named height has also been
observed at Peterhead
In dwelling upon the necessity for
what are known as spending breach s
and wave traps, for dissipating and con-
trolling wave action, it was declared
that the depth to which the latter e1-
tends is now known to be much greater
than was once commonly supposed
Froof OF this is shown by the fact that
lobster pots placed in from 120 to 1870
feet OF water have been found to be
filled with sand and shingle after a
heavy. gale; moreover, sand had been
found deposited after heavy gale in
the gallery of the Bishop Rock light
house, the latter being 120 feet above
the water and the depth of the water at
that point $50 feet.
That the water, even at considerable
depth, must be moving during a gale
with great momentum is shown by the
fact that at the Peterhead breakwater
blocks weighing Al tons, and To-
Gated over SO feet below spring tide,
low water, were displaced during a
storm, while section of the breakwater
weighing $500 tons was moved bodily
for a few inches without the brick
work being dislocated.
