Athletic Fects on the Moon.

Did YOU ever get to thinking that you
would enjoy sudden translation from
the earth to the moon? If you have,
did you ever figure on the wonderful
feats of muscular strength with which
you could astonish our luminary neigh
bors. providing gravitatiOn would have
no more effect accordingly there than
here? Let us figure: The moon only
weighs one-eightieth part as much as
the earth. Gravitation must therefore
be correspondlngly less. If therefore
q man weighed 40 pounds on this
earth he would weigh but a fraction
over twenty pounds according to the
scales used on the moon. If, however,
his muscles and frame remained the
same as they were before being trans
ferred to our silvery sister world he
could "astonish the natives" with his
astounding athletic and muscular feats.
He would be able to shoulder an ele-
phant of the regulation size ana 10
vank a small mountain out by the
roots. The buoyancy Of his body would
be so great that athletic feats would
be easily accomplished. He could run
q mile in something less than two Sec
onds or could by single bound leap
over a wall twenty-four feet high with
out greater exertion than would be re-
ouIred here in clearing one only two
feet I'm height.

fer. He lived In n house at the top or
the Rue Leplc on Montmartre. His
house was his castle In the literal sense
of the word. 1t was difficult to obtain
admission, for the painter had an up
Der window out Of which he always
looked when the bell rang and interro-
gated his would be visitors. He had q
basket which he let down by cord TO
receive packages or messages, and he
slept In a wonderful swinging bed.
His house was veritable museum, IL
Illuminated Persian manuscripts being
part Of his collection. Some or these
were worth thousands Of francs, but IL
was impossible to persuade him to sell
any of them. In place Of a newell post
on his stairway stood the Prov of a
gilded gondola, and, closely immured
In his studio, he painted pictures OF
Venice and bade defiance to all who
came to disturb his peace.
