FRICTION.
What Causes II and What Would Hap

What is friction really caused by2
Why will two things in contact not
slip over each other easily? IL is be-
cause every substance known 10 science
has teeth; microscopic. il is true. but
still teeth. The result. then. Is OBJ
vious. If we shove II book across a
table the teeth of the book interlock
with the teeth Of the table just rs cog-
wheels do. and the push has to be
strong enough either 10 bend them
enough Or 10 break them of for the
motion TO continue.
Ii has actually been observed in a
microscope that If the push Is only a
slight one and moves the book only a
short distance. on the pressure of the
hand being removed the boob actually
jumps back to its former position.
This action is a slight bending of the
two sets of teeth. only not far enough
for them 10 lose their relative posi-
lions. and their elasticity on being re-
leased makes the book fly back.
1t has been shown that this friction
is not so much between different bod.
les as between bodies of the same ma
terial. One Industrial application of
this is the bearings for steel axles.
They are made of brass instead of
steel.
In some things we want as much
friction as possible and in others as
little. The former Is Illustrated in the

the track. sand sometimes being pour
ed on the track TO increase the friction.
The latter case Is illustrated in all
bearings where rotating metal is in
contact with stationary metal. some
times ball bearings being substituted.
thus leSSening the friction
Many peculiar things would happen
if there was no friction. All screws in
wood would Immediately twist back
ward rapidly and shoot out INFO the
air: trains could not run save on cog
ged rails. which would probably be
necessary above as well as below. thus
having fOur rails instead of two: build
inSS would tumble down. and new ones
could not be built unless nodded in
place like EdiSOn'S or else riveted to-
gether. People would have TO wear
shoes with long spikes in them and
then have to be careful. for dirt grains
would slip over one another easily and
would act like deep sand. But one
great thing would happen-machines
would run at 100 per cent efficiency.
would give out as much energy as was
put into them.-Lawrence Hodges in

THE SPEAKERS MACE.
Ancient Emblem Used In the House

Ancient Emblem Used In the House
of Representatives.
With all IFS dignity. its senatorial
courtesy and the forms and ceremo-
MES that always are observed. the SEN
ate is far behind the house of repre-
%sentatives III the matter of n anti
quated piece of furniture. The senate
has no mace. Now. a mace Is not
much in the way of furniture. Ii is a
silver eagle mounted upon a staff
around which are bands of silver.
This mace is always an emblem of
the house of representatives. 1t is the
duty of II employee to look after it.
Just before a session of the house be-
gins he takes it from the office Of the
sergeant-at-arms into the house cham
Der. and as soon as the speakers gavel
falls he inserts it in a socket i'll a
stone pillar at the right of the speak
er'S chair. The mace remains there
while the house is in session and is
taken out and stood beside its pedes-
tai when the house is in committee of
the whole. When the house adjourns
the mace is carried back to the office
Of the sergeant-at-arms.
This ancient emblem has not a thing
to do with the order of business of the
house, save as one of the old time reg
ulations that are continued. When the
house is turbulent an officer seiZeS the
mace and walks through the alsleS.
Only once or twice when the speaker
failed to preserve order have ! seer an
officer seize the mace n walk
through the house, waving it back
ward and forward. Possibly the sight
OF it brought members TO their senses
and they retired to their seats. AT all

This threw the head locomotive into the

The sudden stoppage ditched the

of the heavy trsin crushed the day

Decline in Railroad Building.

New York, March 22.-Thst railrosd
construction ia not keeping pace with the
development of farm property 10 the
United States is demont ttratsd BY official
figures uow at hand.
According to Pool's Manual there
we're 1872, l61 miles OF railroad IN the
United States in 1900, aud 2S0, OS4 miles
In 1908; aud according to the latest gov.
eminent figures the wealth production
on farms was S5, or, 900, 900 in 1900, and
$Z,S4S. 900, 900 in 1908. Thus there
was mile Of railroad to every s26, 100
of farm products 10 1900, and mile OF
read to every tS4, 100 Of farm products
10 1908
The ertIge of increase In wealth
production oD farms from 1900 TO 1908
was Sc per cent; the percentage OF in-
crease in railroad milesge was only 10. AZ
per cent. ..
A report from Washington ststss thst
railroad construction in the United States
during the last 20 years has been greatly
turtailed as compared with the similar
period prior 10 1890. From 1870 to 1890
ITO, $50 miles OF road were built; since
1890 about 60, 400 miles have been
tuit, 3 decrease Of nearly 81 per
cent.
There have been various explanations
Of the relatively slow increase 10 railroad
mileage. For whatever cause, investors
have besitated to put their capital lEto
railroad construction, preferriug manu-.
featuring or agricultural ventures. The
legislation sgslnst railroads and the
steady reduction In rates have tended to
make railroad building relatively un-
