shows the lodge to have gained in
membership AZ. making the total num-
Der now in good standing Alb. A
large number of the members have
been sick during the term, to whom
the lodge has paid the sum of $l,3GS.-

lodge has paid for the maintenance
of the home at Greensburg s4956.

Locating a Broken Wire.

When Telegraph wire is broken or
damaged. say. several hundred miles
away. how does the operator. sitting
In his Office. know exactly where the
accident occurred?
The explanation is simple. 1t re-
quires. as every one knows, consider
able force to send electricity through
= wire. The longer the wire the
greater. OF course. must be the force
required. This force is measured in
units called by electricians '.ohms."
Let us suppose that wire between 4
New York Office and a point 100 miles
away has broken somewhere. The
selegrapher knows that when the wire
vas intnct there were required. say,
LOO ohms to facilitate the current, or
fourteen chms to the mile. He now
fnds thar he can send current with
only 700 ohtns. Dividing 100 by il,
he finds that the break In the wire IS
atty miles from his end.-New York

The penguin does not 1y-he hops.
balancing himself by his flippers. or
rudimentary wings. He is about two
feet tall, in some cases. however, reach
ing nearly four feet. ard he has a sol
cmn ard heavy style OF hop which IS
immensely funny TO look at. 1t is not
a bit Of fun for the penguin. though.
for when the ice is rough. as 1t almost
always is. his webbed. clumsy feet
soon become raw and bleeding. When
ever he reaches a snow slope he drops
down and toboggans. urging himself
ton@with his fiippers, bot for the most
part he hops laboriousiy mile after
mile when the nesting season comes,
seeking home that satisfies penguin
requirements.
A penguin is made OF sterner stuff
than to need soft lining for a nest. A
heap OF irregular stones around 4 de-
preston scratched In the ground is all
that each pair asks for. Some pen
gums are Industrious and collect stones
all day. Others are lazy and steal
theirs whenever a workers broad
black back is turned. 1t is a tribe
hard to escape with the plurder. for
a slow waddle is the best the thief can
do. But the owner cannot pursue any
faster, and the chase is very funny
to see. Sometimes the thief Is over
taken. and in that case there is a
lively .ght. while third penguin, lin
gering near, usually bears away the
coveted stone while the fight is on

Float Z Maonetixed Sewing Needle In

= sSas . UsAVU0kSzS0 OC"tV9 t<O00t0
Bowl Of Water.
II thoroughly dry ana clean sewing
needle is carefully laid on the surface
Of water in basin the needle will float
In spite Of the high density OF steel
seven or eight times that Of water.
On close inspection it is found that the
surface OF the water Is depressed under
the needle. much as II there were a
thin film stretched over the water and
slightly indented by the weight Of the
needle.
This property OF liquids Of offering
q certain resistance to force exerted
upon their surface is termed surface
tension" The magnitude Of the force
Of surface tension varies from one
liquid to another. 1t is greatest In the
case Of mercury. The cause OF the
phenomenon must probably be looked
for In the attraction OF the liquid mole
cules to one another.
A sewing needle thus floating upon
water may be used as compass II it
has previously been magnetized. It
will then point north and south and
will maintain this position If the con-
tanning vessel is moved about. II the
needle is displaced by force it will re-
turn to its position along the mag
netic meridian as soon as the restraint
Is removed.-Chicago Tribune.
