NOTION.
The Visible Action and Invisible inter-
molecular Vibration.

molecular Vibration.
Let us suppose that stretched
cord or wire fixed at both ends, and
let a sharp blow be given it. The
hand or other instrument which i'm
parted the blow was set in motion in
order to do so, and its motion was
one of translation, but the cord
which had received the blow and to
Which some of the motion has con-
seqGently been transferred cannot
change its place, for it is fixed. We
kno7 well enough what will happen.
1t sill commence vibrating, more or
less strongly and rapidly, according
to tie strength of the blow it has re-
cei5ed. We have therefore here
secl motion of translation changed
into motion Of vibration, but a sim
liar and quite as familiar trans
formation takes place which is in
visible.
Let US take coin or any small
pie; Of metal and rub it well with
a cloth or handkerchief. In a short
time il viii become warm and if the
friction be still continued even un-
pleasantly hot. The visible motion
Of the hand has been transformed
into the Invisible intermolecular Vi
lration which we call heat. That
"heGt is a form of motion" has be-
come a scientific truism, but it was
not SO at the commencement of the
last century, when it was still sup
posed by many to be some intangi-
be kind Of substance named "ca-
loric," proofs to the contrary being
almost simultaneously given by Da-
W and Rumford at the end of the
eie, e,.tcenth century, that of the for
mor consisting in melting two pieces
Of ice, carefully insulated from ex-
ternal heat, by rubbing them togeth-
er; that of the latter in causing wa
ter 10 boil by the sole means of keep
ing it in continual motion.
1T is hardly necessary to add"
says Rumford, "that anything which
any insulated body or system of
bodies can continue to furnish with
out limitation cannot possibly be
material substance, and it appears to
me exceedingly difficult if not quite
impossible to form any distinct idea
of anything capable of being excited
and communicated in the manner

in these experiments, except it be
motion. Good Words.

How We Cot Thermometers.

1t is believed that Galilei made
the first thermometer about the year
1898. 1t was an instrument of
glass, consisting of a bulb from
which slender tube depended, open
at its lower end, and there plunged
into a vase containing some colored
liquid, such as vinegar or wine.
The glass bulb was heated before
the stem was immersed, and when
the contained air cooled and con-
traeted the fluid in the upright ther-
moscopic tube rose to higher level.
This simple and primitive apparatus
is constantly made use of on the lee
ture table nowadays when some sim
pie demonstration of the laws Of
heat is to be made.

The Disooverer Of Hypnotism.

We owe our earliest knowledge of
hypnotism to those wise men of the
east, the Hindoos, TO whom we owe
our language, our religion, our
philosophy and our oriental rugs as
well as cholera and the opium habit.
Who first in that land of dreams
and dirt made use of hypnotic
passes to put his fellow men into in
voluntary sleep is as obscure a per-
sonage in history as the discoverer
of the oyster and as unimportant,
for, while we enjoy all the material
advantages of he discoveries of
these unknown heroes OF invention,
we are not obliged to consider the
claims of enyious contestants every
year.

mental Pleasant Grove Christian
church, Christmas eve, was a
success. A large congregation
was present, and the program
well rendered by the Sunday
school, conducted by David Gar
land. Each teacher delivered an
address to his class when he gave
them the presents from the tree.
Those addresses were very touch
ing. The singing was led by the
pastor, A. G. b. Powers, who,
with his good wife, was kindly
remembered by the Sunday
school with many nice presents.
Each of them received a valuable
rocking chair, which was very
much appreciated.
