Roy groaned. Cant you thlnk of

Natalie meditated. I'll tell You

POST CARD TRICK.

If you should be told that a postal
card may be turned into a magnet, you
would be surprised. no doubt, and yet
1t is true. The experiment should not
be made in damp weather. Balance
"a w~alking-stick on the back of a chair.
and tell the spectators that you are
going to make 1t fall without touching
it or the chair.
Having thoroughly dried a postal
card, preferably before an open fire,
rub it briskly on your sleeve, and then
hold it near one end of the stick. The
stick will at once 90 attracted to the
card, and will follow 1t as If 1t were a
magnet. AS 1t moves 1t will soon lose
its equilibrium and fall from the chair.
Almost any kind of wooden rod will
do instead of the walking-stick, and
almost any kind of card. OF course
you understand the principle of the ex-
pertinent. BY rubbing the care you
walker electricity in it. and 1t thus be-
comes a sort of magnet, with the power
to attract light bodies.

WATER AND GOLD.

1t seems incredible that water may
be forced through solid gold. That il
may be was proved by a scientist many
years ago. who was trying to find out
whether water was compressible. He
filled a hollow sphere of gold with
water, and Their brought great pressure
to bear on the sphere. Much to his
surprise some of the water made its
way through the gold and appeared or
the outside of the sphere. This proved
that gold Is porous. but the pores are
not more than one-half of the millionth
part Of an inch in diameter.
