LAW OF GRAVITY VIOLATED.
Conditions Under Which Water Ec
tually Flows Upward.

water seeks it's level is an eX
preston heard so frequently as to be
almost trite, and yet the law has its
exceptions. There are conditions un-
der which water actually flows up
ward and rises above its source. Il
glass tube be dipped into water the
column inside will be above the level
Of the surrounding surface. Moreover
if a tube of half the diameter be sub
stituted the column doubles its height
The water creeps along the inside of
the tube, owing to the adhesion. and
forms a cup shaped depression at the
top.
An explanation is not difficult. ii
can be proved mathematicaly that If
the diameter Of circle be diminished
one-half the circumference is also re-
duced to that extent while the area is
one-fourth of its former value. The
circumference OF the column of water
being reduced one-half. its contact
with the glass. and hence the adhesive
force. is also diminished to that extent.
while the cross section. and hence the
weight. is decreased to fourth Of
what it was before. Therefore the sec
ond column can be twice the height Of
the first without exceeding the lifting
power.
Remarkable as the underlying prin-
ciples of this phenomenon undoubtedly
are. nature made use of them long be-
fore man made their discovery. Every
tree and flower adds its testimony.
The core Of Il tree or plant. instead of
being Il single open channel. consists
of a spongelike substance containing
many miniature tunnels, through
which the sap and moisture collected
by the roots flow upward in small riy-
uets. rising higher and higher in
sheer defiance Of the great law Of
gravity.-St. Louis Republic.

Hermann's own evidence, accord

room, prevented his acquittal. At
the close of the governments case,
continues this information, had the
defense rested and gone to the jury
with it's case, there would have been
a verdict in favor of the defense.
The jury, however, was changed in
it's attitude by the evasiveness and
the contradictions found in the story
of the defendant, and was swayed
to the governments side when He
ney on Cross-examination forced the
defendant to admit mistakes made
on direct examination and qualify
his direct testimony.
