down over us, but never reached us.
It had dropped, say, 1000 feet, when it
was caught by the wind, swayed this

away, %dissolving in misty rain. We

PUZZLES FOR SCIENTISTS.
Many Problems In Nature Which Man
Cannot Solve.

Cannot Solve.
A scientist who has been travelling in
Africa In search of IN answer to some
questions concerning rainfall gives as
his opinion that the expression Of i'm
perturbable calm on the face Of the
sphinx arises from the fact that she
has eve tried to find the answers to
the riddles of nature, which have sent
many men to their graves. What Is
gravity? Is n of them. Hundreds Of
men have gone insane trying to an
swer it. Some, in fact, have gone so
far as to try to disprove the theory ell
trely. An English naval captain wrote
q book OH this subject and sent it to
oil the learned societies In Europe.
Why cannot force be created by hui
man power? Trying to accomplish this
has fastened the end Of many n worthy
man. Perpetual motion will be an ac-
complished fact If we can discover how
force is made. Keely, with his motor,
who claimed to have discovered per-
petual motion, al a swindler whose
death revealed his ingenious counter
felt Of perpetual motion. If this discov-
cry could lie made it would revolution
lie the world.
What u Of heat supply has the
planet Mars? This Is another riddle.
Our earth gets much more heat from
the sun than does Mars, yet that plan
ct has a beautifully mild climate. AS
tronomers have watched the Ice cap
thawing IN Mars, and they have prov
ed that water flows and clouds rise.
This shows that Mars has heat. But il
it is not supplied by the sun from what
source does it come?
Where the tide is born Is another Of
natures secrets. On the island Of Pa
pete, in the southern Pacific, there is
every day at IL midday and 2 In the
afternoon high tide. Why no one is
able to explain. A scientist has been
able to turn gold into silver, but no
n SO far has been able to make a
magnet which will attract gold. Could
this be accomplished its enormous
value could scarcely be realized, for it
would make it possible to work rock
from which no known process has been
able to extract gold in paying quanti-
ties.
Why it rains Is q question to which
no definite answer has been given.
Blue sky does not necessarily mean
fine weather, for there may be just as
much rain overhead when the sky Is
clear as when the clouds hide the sun.
When rain falls from a cloudless sky
It is generally believed that the mois-
ture has been brought by the wind ut
a great elevation. In the south Allan
tic it has been known to rain for more
than an hour while the sky was en-
tirely free from clouds. In the island
Of Mauritius it is not ut all uncommon
for rain TO come from a cloudless heav-
en-. Slight showers fall during the
evening when the stars are shining
brightly. 1t is thought by some that
these showers are the result Of parti-
cles of ice formed in the higher region
of the atmosphere melting and falling.
Others attribute it to currents of warm
and cold air travelling in opposite d.
rections, with the result that the lat
ter condenses some OF the moisture in
the former and causes it to fall in the
form of rain.
