RESIDUAL MAGNETISM.

A piece of magnetized iron removed
from the coil IS found to retain a por-
tion of its magnetism, This is called
residual magnetism" In n long
piece of hardened steel the magnet
ism is retained with a very little loss
for many years. and moderate
amount of jarring affects it but little
But with very soft, pure iron the
magnetism is completely lost if the
iron is Jared. Short, thick pieces lose
their magnetism very easily. because
the lines of force from the poles en-
deavor I" return through the metal
and in 50 doing tend to reverse the
magnetism. Thus. u bar may be re-
garded as being made up of thin bars,
all with their north poles together,
and each north pole tends to demag-
netize the neighborine ones II the
piece is very thin in relation to its
length. this effect is much diminished,
since there would not be SO many COM
ponent pieces. and therefore magnets
are preferably made long and thin If
they are required To be permanent.

selves are not always the least in fault.
Two :noven ents feminism and the Ia

largely To levcling the respect for the
liner usages o. society. The teachers
are often far from being gentlemen in
the true sense of the word, and natural-
ly fail 10 ineulcate gentle feelings in
.heir pupils. The whole moral tone in
France - denlorably low, and the code
is lax: and if women do not respect
themselves they can hardly expect men
To respect them. The imIsrtinence and
iissolencc sometimes seen in French
women are almost Incredible.
Tho remedy lies in their hands and If
women encourage casual treatment By
men il Is useless to complain if this is
sometimes carried further than they de-
sire or is practisai indiscriuinately by
all men, and not only by their own inti-
mates. The question is complex one
and is certainly not confined to French
society. for the same lament is now Of

SCIENCE NOTES.

Since the era Of air navigation be
gan. air currents and movements have
become a subject of study. and Law
renee Hodges recently, in a paper be-
fore an English scientist body, gave
some unique facts about air tides
which are not generally known. The
air is affected in the same way as the
water of the earth is affected by the
moon. The layer of atmosphere about
the earth rises, falls and flows more
freely than water. because il is light
er, So the tide comes more quickly in
the air at given spot than the marine
tide. This rise and fall means just as
much to the navigator of the air as
the tide in the sea does to the sailor
The most remarkable current, how
ever. is one constant stream in the at
mosphere running from west to east
completely around the earth in the
upper atmosphere. This was first
brought to public attention when the
volcano krakatao blew cubic mile
of matter into the upper atmosphere
in the SOS. The lighter particles We're
seen to make a complete circuit of
the earth seven times in this circum-
globular current before they finally
disappeared

TEXAS GIANT DEAD.
Lamb Graves. Seven Feet Three
inches Tall and Weighed $50 Pounds

san Antonio. Texas. Feb. 13.
(Special)-Lamb Graves, the largest
man in the state of Texas. is dead at
his home near this city. Graves was
4 giant in stature standing seven feet
and three inches tall, and weighed
when in health $50 pounds. He was q
farmer by occupation and resided il,
Bexar County five years, having come
here from Centreyille, Texas. 1t us
said OF him that he possessed the
strength Of three ordinary men and
could tame horses and other animals
into submission by sheer force. But
while he was giant both in size and
strength. ne was known as most
kindly man and avoided notoriety.
Many amusement enterprises made
him flattering offers to go on eXhibi-
tion bat these We're always rejected.
On account of his size, the under
tdker who was called at the time of
his death found it impossible to get a
coffin large enough and the body lies
in a morgue in this city awaiting the
arrival of a specially ordered casket.
Ii is believed that Graves was the
tallest man, not. only in Texas but in
the United States. He was 53 years
old and unmarried.

Lessons in Science
THEORY OF MAGNETISM.

Professor Ewing has shown that the
mutual influence Of the molecular
magnets on each other will explain
all the phenomena of magnetism in
iron and other magnetic materials.
The chief phenomena are as follows:
When very weak magnetic force is
applied to the iron, the resulting
magnetism is feeble, and is proper
tionai to the force. An increase in
the force produces a very large in
crease in the magnetism: but q
further increase is less and less effec-
tive, until the iron ultimately reaches
condition of magnetic saturation.
These are thus three distinct stages
which correspond to three conditions
of the molecular magnets To begin
with. the particles are arranged In
mutually neutralizing positions. a
feeble force draws them slightly apart
producing small magnetic effect
But with a stronger force the at
traction Of some of the poles is over
come, ana the particles swing round
TO new position which has Il much
larger magnetic resultant, but the
particles still influence one anothe,
10 certain extent Finally. with 4
very strong foree, the particles are
arranged completely parallel TO the
force. and the maximum magnetic eff
feet ie produced. The positions of diff
ferent sets of particles will probably
vary, and hence the change is no:
quite sudden. but shows gradual
alteration. Different qualities of iron
and steel show varied details. but the
general shape is recogniZahle in al

WHY SOME ARE RICH. OTHERS
POOR.
Self Denial Is Principal Factor In the
Accumulation Of Wealth.

The accommodating of capital by saw
ing is largely 4 question of self-con-
troll and character. The power to resist
self-lnduigence for the sake Of a dis
tant gain lies at the bottom OF the
growth of capital. The majority of
people who are poor are so because
they spend unwisely and to the limit
of their income. 1t is amazing 10 note
how frequently people of slender means
buy articles which are regarded as
unnecessary luXuries by the well-to-
do. The Chinese have taught us that
there is no income so small that saw
ings cannot be made from II.
Now. IL farmers differ in the capac-
ity to save and accumulate property,
the same is true Of men in every other
industry, including such as require
vast capitals. Bigness is no crime in
itself. Because the size of their for
tune is not large enough to attract at
tontion. we hear no diatribes against
rich farmers. But if We allow Il far
mcr. in whose industry no large capt.
tai is employed. fortune OF q quarter
of million (Which is not uncommon),
at what sum shall we draw the line for
successful ertrepreneur in whose in
dustry a hundred millions of capital
is not exceptional? Obviously, we can
draw no line at which we can say this
or that fortune is too large: all we
can say is that q wrong act against
fellow man is indefensible whether
If concerns small or a large sum.
That is, if n man may justly acquire
moderate fortune by skill, iudg-
ment, thrift and great executive abil-
itT, he may likewise acquire a larger
one-justly. Consequently, unless So
ci@lism proposes to abolish thrift,
skill. special knowledge and the power
OF management over large concerns.
there viii be differences in wealth as
we'll under socialism as under the pros
ent system. The truth is that social
ism cannot permanently alter human
n9 ture; no external change in the in
stitutions OF society can alter the
fundamental qualities of our race

In the unique hall of bowery fame.
the name of Owen Kildare. who has
lust died in New York, stands high
L nable TO recognize the letters of the
alphabet at the age of 80, he died al
AZ after publishing several books
which leave him an assured place in
Americas list of writer's. My Mamie
Rose" revealed a rare character In
its evolution from a Bowery tough to
real manhood. Kildare grew up in the
roughtest element known to New
York. A newsboy at seven years of
age, he rapidly developed into a gang
member, then prize fighter. saloon
''bouncer" and bar tender. Then one
day the tender face OF a woman trans
muted the rough elements in him into
rnanliness, and his record in the next
fifteen years stands as an inspiration
70 the faint hearted. He won the
title and will always be known as The
Bowery kipling," but the pathetic
ending Of his life, after a fall in the
subway which injured his head. will
recall the literary flare of this Bowery
genius with feeling of pity to many
who had followed his career.
