TORRICELLI'S VACUUM.
Experiment That Led to the Invention
of the Barometer. = -

Experiment That Led to the Invention
of the Barometer. :: -.
The barometer was invented by Tor
ricelli, pupil of Galilei, in 1913. In
attempting to pump water from very
deep we'll near Florence he found that
in spite of all his efforts the liquid
would not rise higher in the pump
stock than thirty two feet. This set
the young scientist to thinking, and as
he could not account for the phenome-
non in any other way he was not slow
in attributing it to atmospheric pres
sure. He argued that water would
rise in a vacuum only to such height
as would render the downward pres
sure or weight Of the column of water
just equal to the atmospheric pressure
and, further, that should heavier fluid
be used the height of the column could
be much reduced. 10 prove this he
selected a glass tube four feet long
and after sealing one end filled it with
mercury and then inverted it in a
basin containing quantity Of the same
peculiar liquid. The column in the
tube quickly fell to height of nearly
thirty inches above the mercury in the
basin, leaving in the top of the tube a
vacuum which is the most perfect that
has ever been obtained and which is
to this day called the Torricelli vac
uum in honor Of it's discoverer. The
name of the instrument means "'air
measure and it's fundamental princi-
pies cannot be better illustrated than
by the above described experiment.

BRUISED FINGER NAILS.
a Simple Remedy That Keeps Them
- From Turning Black.

- From Turning Black.
A young woman who YVES going to a
debutante dinner the next evening
bruised three Of the finger nails Of her
right hand badly by catching them in
door. Visions of an unsightly hand,
possibly one in a sling, drove her to
the telephone to get in touch with her
physician Il
His advice was: Get yourself a
comfortable chair and an interesting
book, set yourself by stationary
washstand in such way that the
fingers can be held upright under the
faucet. then turn on the cold water
and let it run over the bruised fingers
for at least three-quarters of an hour,
preferably longer. ~. H~
IF the water gets too cold or chills
you during that time turn it off for a
few minutes, but never once let the
hand get out of the upright position
so the blood can run into the bruised
niger and blacken."
The maiden's hand was unmarried
for her dinner, and she was so de.
lighted with the remedy she told it
for the benefit of the guests, one al
least of whom has tried this cure re-
peatedly since, being inclined to awk,
wardness and badly bruised fingers
No matter how bad the hurt, unless
the finger is mashed the throbbine
will not be followed with weeks of
blackened nails.-EXchange

SURVEYING Land.

The art of land surveying owes It's
origin to the fact that the Egyptians
were unable to keep permanent monu1e
ments on land which was overlooked
every year by the Nile. Under such
circumstances it became necessary to
have some means of reident1fying the
various pieces of land. The instru-
ments and mathematical methods of
astronomy, with suita BILE modi fcations,
were used by the Egyptians for land
surveying, @:..:* ...~..... IL y tsz st

A Queer Ceremony.

A queer ceremony is performed every
year on the 9Th day Of September in
the Vale Maggie, Italy. The region
abounds in vipers. The, celebrants
form into weird procession, each per
son-man, woman and child-carrying
a huge figure Of snake stuffed with
cotton. AS they pass along they weep
and lament, believing that by the ex-
piatory ceremony they will render
themselves proof against snake bites
during the grape gathering. E1g@

By limited Press Wire.

Fayetteville. w. Va, May g.
Should conviction result In the trial
of Albert c. Fcltz, superintendent of
the Baldwin detectives, charged with
robbing Paymaster Wicks, of the New
River collieries near Thurmond last
July a battle between half a hundred
heavily armed Baldwins and mem
bers of the Hatfield feud clan is al
most certain to result, court officials
say Some of the Hatfields are the
states strongest witnesses against
Feltz and feeling between the fac
tions is strong.
The town of Fayetteville is filled
with the Baldwins and an effort Is
being made, 1t Is openly charged, to
prevent communication with the 0ut-
side world which might enable Pros
ecutor Lave to bring more evidence
or new witnesses into the case.
Not only are all strangers VINO en-
ter Fayetteville closely watched by
Baldwins. but every telephone mes
sage or telegraph communication is
censored.
Citizens of Fayetteville are afraid
to venture on the streets.
Prosecutor Love Is quoted as stat
ing Thursday morning he did not ex-
pect conviction and feared obstruc-
ton of the workings of the court In
the event the verdict of the jury was
adverse to Feltz.
