CHINESE AND THE COMPASS.
Very Probable that They or Some
Other Asiatics Discovered 1t.

Very Probable that They or Some
Other Asiatics Discovered 1t.
Some Asian people, perhaps the Chi
nese, discovered, many centuries ago,
that kind of iron ore possessed a very
peculiar quality, says writer in Har-
per's Magazine. We call this ore mag
netic or, in more common language,
lodestone, and it is very widely distrib-
uted, especially in the older crystalline
rocks. 1t was found that If bit of
lodestone were placed in water upon
piece of cork or straw braid 1t would
turn till the axis of the stone assumed
north and south position. A phe-
nomenon Of magnetism had been dis
covered by means Of an ore that Is
peculiarly susceptible to magnetic infu-
ence
1t Is an open question whether the
Chinese utilized the directive power of
the lodestone, but it is certain that the
first rude compass was not used on
European vessels before the twelfth
century Of our era. BY that time the
true magnetic compass had been
evolved through the discovery that If
an iron or steel needle were stroked on
n lodestone it would receive the attrac-
tive and directive power of this ore.
With this wonderful appliance placed
at the service of navigation, the vessels
that had hugged the coasts soon dared
to venture even out of sight of land. A
new impetus was gradually given to
cartography, for now the true directions
Of the coast lines might be chartered
with some approach to accuracy. 1t
was the happy fortune of Italian sail
ors to make the surprisingly excellent
surveys Of directions and lengths Of
the Black Sea and Mediterranean
coasts and along the Atlantic to British
waters that have come down to us in
the sO-called Portulan maps.

very often speaks of her, and then

the things as she does them. Very
often / feel as If | have fallen short
Of his expectations. and that he is not

household affairs differently from the
way his mother does Whenever he

Let me look at it. Why, of course,
you nave got u splinter under that
nail; but l shall soon get 1t out"
"Oh, no, dearest! DO not trouble
yourself about 1t. 1t is nothing but
little thorn that will soon work itself
out"
"The Idea. Give me your finger
right now. Such a little thorn might
cause blood poisoning if you neglect
it."
"Oh, nonsense, Else Do you really
believe that such little thing could
cause any harm? Look at me, Else,
and tell Inc do you really believe that
such tritle might be dangerous"
She looked at him in surprise. Then
she suddenly blushed
Could he mean something else?
What did he know?
"Oh, Gustav ~ she sobbed, and buried
her face in her hands. You know"
Instead Of answering he took her into
his arms.
ELSE! Now be my own sensible lit
tie wife and tell me frankly what you
mean. Confess everything and l also
will confess"
Yes, both the letters-yours and
your mothers. Forgive me that and
all the rest; it was thoughtless on my
part; l did not realize"
"Oh, Gustav. and now you will new
er feel like talking to me of your
mother and l should SO like to know
more about her."
Il understand you, dearest, and lust
for that reason l will talk even more
of her, but in different way, with
out always drawing comparisons. VIII
you be satisfied then? | will endeavor
always to think of myself as your
husband rather than as my mothers
son and l thank you SO much that you
have made me see how l ought to be.
And now will you please remove the
little thorn, or better still, / will re-
move 1t myself, and in the future we
will always remove the little thorns
ourselves without asking mamma s
help"
"Oh, Gustav, you do not know how
| love you," she said, and kissed him,

The following incident occurred when
| was a barefooted lad of 10 years. liv.
ing In an obscure country town in
Maine. The wealthiest man in the com.
munity was certain Mr.. X, who was
reputed to be worth 100000, and to
have an income of $40 day.
These amounts then seemed to me Sc
stupendous that | often wondered how
1t was possible to acquire so much
wealth and resolved at the next oppor.
tunity would ask him about it, Liy.
ing, as l did, on the adjoining estate
and often doing some small chores for
him, this opportunity soon came and |
made the inquiry:
Mr.. r., how did you make so much
money" He looked at me moment
and, patting me on the shoulder. re-
piled:
I'll tell you, my son. 81 bought nv
straw hats In the winter"
The full meaning of his remark was
not appreciated at the time, but II
made deep impression, and as l grew
to maturity its wisdom and signifi-
canoe became more and more apparent
