WORTH KNOWING
The Kite and the Key.

Many know of DR.. F'ranklin's eX-
pertinent with lightning and Kite
without knowing just what that ex-
pertinent was. His experience with
the electrical generator in his home
led him to think of electricity as a
fluid, of which an object might re-
ceive more than Its share and be
ready to pour ii into some other OBJ
ject. or else might have less than its
share and be eager to receive the
current from other objects that were
more than full. Lightning travels in
zig-zag line and he found spark
from his machine travelling in the
same way. Lightning sets fire to
things and so does electricity. There
were other points of resemblance be
tween the two which he had noticed,
and about which he had written to the
Royal Society in London. But this
society paid no attention to Dr.
suggestion. He therefore
determined to test the matter himself
