HOW A MAN WEIGHS.
On Eeartb 40 Pounds, sun Over n
Ton, Moon Not Much.

How much do you weigh? The
average weight of man is 14C
pounds. but the force of gravity or
Mars is so much less than on earth
that the 140-pound man would weigh
only 53 pounds II transported thlther
with such light weight and still re-
tanning the same strength, an indi-
vldual would be able to run with
the speed OF an express train, go
skipping over 10-foot walls, and do
various other extraordinary things.
On the moon a man would be even
lighter. But on the sum our 140-
pound man would have his troubles.
Instead OF being an airy individual
he would weight n ton and three
quarters. lie probably would have
the greatest difficulty in raising his
hand, for that member would weight
800 pounds.
According TO scientific computation
n man who on the earth weights 140
pounds would go to the other celes-
tial bodies with the following
weights: Moon, 23; Mars, 53;
Venus, ia; Mercury, 119; Neptune,
