SCIENCE SPECIALS.

Experiments made with kites on the
Mediterranean have shown that over a
large surface of water the temperature
and the rapidity OF air movements de-
cline steadily in proportion to the alti-
tude.
Prof. Nichols, the astronomer, mat.
a delicate instrument some time ago to
measure very faint heat-waves. 1t is
30 sensitive to heat that it registers the
warmth that emanates from a mans
face 1000 feet, or more than third of
a mile, away. \
The furnace as means of ventilation
is said to be more economical in deep
mines than in shallow ones, as it acts
by heating column of air; the higher
that column the greater will be the diff
ference in the weight of air in the up
cast and downcast shafts, and conse-
quently the greater the motive power.
Carrying out experiments in psychic
phenomena, some scientists at Ruvo
produced some striking results. A a..
year-old boy was put in a trance, and in
this condition answered questions put to
him in Greek, Latin, Arabic, French,
English, German, and conversed in
those languages, his voice being that Of

Radium breaks up into helium and
lead, If Rutherford's differences are true,
Radtum has an atomic weight of 225.
and if each of the five alpha particles
given of is an atom of helium of mass
4, the residue must have an atomic
weight Of 205, about that of lead. This
metal, moreover, is present in all RADIO
active minerals.

Be originate you are different.

Are you deaf to the knock Of oppor-

man. Men of business are usually "over

liberty of action to the FACULTIES. Origi.

by rigid habit, becomes mere automa-

him warmly by the hand. I'm right

LONGING.

When the roadside weeds are willing
And the skies sunburned and brassy,
Then I know the birds are lifting,
Then 1 know a county lassie
Sings along q country highway
Where the maple trees arch over,
Trips along a woodland byway
Sweet with breath of purple clover.
And buds come out of their hiding.
And birds sing out of the shadow,
And the cricket where 'tis biding
Sends it's cali across the meadow.
And her lips are like a cherry.
And her throat is ike the thrushes
In the morning making merry
BY the stream s side In the rushes.
And her foot, so softly pressing
On the tender roadside grasses.
Is as soft as the caTessing
OF the south wind as il passes,
And her locks are star-dust drifting
In a halo, and glory,
And her eyes dOWn-drOOped or lifting
Are as sweet as loves own story.
Do you wonder that the whiting
OF the weeds along the byway
Sets me longing for the lifting
OF a song adOwn highway
Where a country maid is going
And where maple trees arch over,
And where gentle breceZs blowing
Bring the breath Of purple clover?

OVERRIDING 1t.

The campaign for the Republican
gubernatorial nomination in New
Hampshire, so far as the Churchill
Remiek portion Of it is concerned,
is waged entirely on the issue fur
nished by the Boston and Maine
railroad and its alleged domination
Of the State.
To judge by the speeches Of the
distinguished novelist and his more
aged mentor, the condition of af-
fairs is pitiable. indeed. The rail
road has purchased all the legis-
lators with passes; owns all the
lawyers; has a mortgage on most
of the clergymen; controls every
editorial room; grips each governor
as he comes along; tells the rail-
road commission exactly what it
shall do from day to day, and die
tates the governmental policy of the
State from council 10 second assist

If this picture of corruption is
unexaggerated, New Hampshire is
in bad way, indeed, and fit sub

means that the people themselves

President Lucius Tuttle is little
better than a professional briber.
whereas he is everywhere account
ed an honest and honorable gentle
man. The thing seems to be egregi-
ously overdone.
The prosperity of New Hampshire
is most TO be desired by the Boston
and Maine. and if it were guilty Of
all the evil charged against it, it
would be on the high road TO ruin.
After the campaign is over it viii
undoubtedly be realized that most
of the accusations of the Churchill
party were made in a Pickwickian
sense for n desired political effect.
