Cook Learned the Secret Of Their Util.
ity From an Insect.
Ransom Cook was little known out
side of the village Of Saratoga, where
he lived, but he gained small fortune
from a carpenters bit, invented by
him, which has been in common use
for years. This device has two lips,
protruding slightly above the edge and
opposite each other.
Simplicity itself. but the world never
had such a bit until Cook made II, and
an insect taught him how to do it. Sit
ting down on a recently felled pine tree
one day outside Saratoga. he heard the
crunch, crunch of something inside the
log. Curious, he investigated and saw
that an insect of the BEETLE family was
boring into the wood at one end of the
PROSTATE tree. And the hole was
lengthwise. Moreover, it was perfect
" smooth. Cook had no bits in his kit
that would make such hole without
slivering the interior so that 1t would
be rough. Procuring an ak. he chop
ped off the end Of the log where the
insect had been working, split the Sec
ton and. capturing the beetle. took 1t
home and examined it under a micro
scope. Then the secret of the Insects
ability to bore smooth horizontal holes
in any kind of wood was revealed
The beetle was provided with power
full nippers on either side OF Its jaws.
and they operated in precisely the
same manner as do the small blades OF
the bits which be Immediately invent
ed, patented and put on the market.

his fortune.-New York Press.

SPEED OF A TRAIN.

You Can Figure It Out From the Clicks

If any reader wishes. when on long
railway journey. to test the speed at
which the train is travelling he might
perhaps do worse than follow the
method suggested by Nothing to Do"
I'VE were coming down from Lon

my brain the rhythmic tune Nothing

one-quarter of minute. found that
twenty-five was the number, Twenty

one minute. The rails of the L. and

therefore 60 by 50 gave me $3.50.
which was. of course. the number of

Course Of the Sun.

1t Is not known whether the sun is
moving around another as a center
All proba bilities are against the idea.
Since the invention of the telescope
and micrometer no turning to the
right or left has been detected. 1t, so
far as known. seems to be moving
along on a straight line. But analogy
is against this also. Millions of other
suns attract ours. and the path beyond
doubt bends this way and that, like
that OF a bee in swarm. but the
curvature cannot be noticed. Draw a
circle ten miles in diameter, cut out
one inch. and you would say the inch
Is straight line. The suns path trav.
ersed during the last 300 years at
twelve miles per second is about In the
proportion OF this cut out inch.-Edgar
