QUEER SWIMMING NEEDLES
One Understands the Con- ditions.

Swimming needles that will re- main on the water, approach each other and float side by side, seem bewitched to those who know from experience how quickly a needle will sink to the bottom of a glass of water under ordinary cOndi- tions.
 There are several ways of making a needle float on the surface of the .water. The simplest way is to place piece of tissue paper OF the water and lay the needle on it.. The paper soon becomes soaked with water and sinks to the bot tom, while the needle is left float ing on the top. Another method is to hang the needle in two sHngs made of threads, which must be carefully drawn away as soon as the needle floats. The needle can also be made to float by simply holding it in the fingers and laying st on the water. but this requires a .yery steady hand.
 After two or three needles have

WHERE TIME IS NOTHING.
Tn the Eastern European Countries People Care Little for Saw
 ing Time.

Miss Mary E. Dunham has made an entertaining book out of her travels through the Balkan states. She found that the idea of women travelling without a male escort in those countries struck the people whom she met as most singular. A Montenegrln was also astonished at an expendl- ture of money upon travel which seemed to him without adequate purpose.
 The English, he had been told, wanted to see and know every thing; they travelled everywhere. It must be a very expensive habit. It had perhaps cost me eight pounds, he suggested, to come this distance. 1 admitted that 1t had, and he expressed great astonish ment at the lavish expenditure.
 "And it takes not only money but time" said my companion.
 He laughed merrily. Time! What is time? Time is nothing. You live, and then you die" The idea of reckoning ''time" amused him vastly.
 "Time," said Hungarian, who was of the party, in order to show his superior knowledge, "is thought very much of by the Eng fish. l have been told that they have proverb which says: Time 1 is money'"
 We corroborated this report, to the astonlshment of both men, for even the Hungarian thought this was going rather far. The Mon tenegriD thought it one of the wild est statements he had ever met with, and shook his puzzled head.

WONDERFUL SILK OF SPIDER
Astronomer Finds After Years h. vestigation That Insect Has
 the Best Article

The astronomer after the eXpe- rience of many years has found that the spider furnishes the only thread which can be successfully used in carrying on his work. writes Amtrose Swazey, in the Scientific American.
 The spider lines mostly used are from ne-ffth to one seventh of a th0usandth of an inch in diameter, and, in addition to their strength and elasticity, they have the pc culiar property of withstanding great changes of temperature; and often when measuring the sun spots, although the heatsis so in tense as to crack the lenses of the micrometer eyepiece, yet the spider lines are not in the least in jured.
 The threads of the siIkworm, al though of great value as a conner cial product, are so coarse and rough compared with the silk of the spider that they cannot be used in such instruments.
 Spider lines, although but fraction of thousandth of an inch i'll diameter, are made up of sey- eral thousands of microscopic
 
 streams of fluid, which unite and form single line, and it is because of this that they remain true and round under the highest magnify ing power.
 An instance of the durability of the spider lines is found at the Al legheny observatory, where the same set of lines in the micrometer of the transit instrument has been in use since 1859.

been made to float in a bowl of wa water, magnetic a sewing needle by rubbing it on fairly strong magnet and when it is foated on the water it will make an extreme l,y sensitive compass that will at. tract the other needles. They will slowly approach each other until they float side by side. Do not have the sewing needle too strong ly magnetized, or the needles may strike together so heavily as tc cause them to sink.
