THE MOON AS WE SEE 1T.
rs Mountains and craters and It's
Lights and Shadows.

les Mountains and craters and Its
Lights and Shadows.
The visible part Of the moon is about
equal to the superfcies of North Amer
lea. 1t is very mountainous. and around
the vast dry plains which form the
dark spots seen with the naked eye are
volcanoes whose funnel shaped craters
resemble old wells filed In by the de-
posits of ages.
Maps Of the moon show more than
$1,000 such craters. some Of them 200
kilometers in diameter.
The radius of the earth is supposed to
be nearly four times that of the moon.
Proportionally the moon Is much more
mountainous than the earth All the
lunar volcanoes are extinct.
The moon was formed after the earth
was formed. 1t has gone to Its doom
faster than the earth because. as its
mass is much feebler than the earth's
mass. it cooled faster. The moons light
and shade are clearly seen because it
has no appreciable atmosphere.
The moon has been called the pan
theon of astronomers" because its vol
canoes have been named for astron-
omers. Riccioli gave his own name to
a splendid lunar circus" and to n very
small and Insignificant volcano he gave
the name Of Galileo.-Harper's Weekly.

SHOWED HIS CONTEMPT.
The Performance Was Costly, but .,
Relieved His Feelings

At Dussaux's restaurant. in the
Grand Morskoi at st. Petersburg. six
officers Of the Imperial Horse guards
sat drinking champagne. Not far from
them sat an Insignificant little man
with a shabby coat and an unkempt
beard and a glass of liquor in front of
him. 1t was not long before he became
aware that he was being ridiculed by
the officers aforesaid.
BY and by, as they became more and
more offensive in their remarks on his
personal appearance, etc. he called fol
the waiter and said. Bring me six bot
ties Of your best champagne" The
waiter hesitated. Did you not hear
what I said?' asked the little man
The waiter brought the wine and six
glasses. Take these glasses away and
fetch a basin. one as large as you can
find" The waiter again hesitated. but
obeyed instantly at the peremptory rep
etition of the order. "A piece of SOAP

DYNAMITE AS 1T ExPLODES.
IL Follows, as Lightning Does, the Line
Of Least Resistance.

IL Follows, as Lightning Does, the Line
Of Least Resistance.
1t is the popular impression that dy-
Mantle seeks the line Of greatest re-
sistance. Place a quantity Of black
powder on rock and light it with a
fuse. 1t will flash. simply scorching the
stone Place a piece of dynamite on
the same rock. and the rock will be
shattered: hence the reasoning that
dynamite follows the line Of greatest
resistance.
Nothing could be further from the
truth, however. The black powder
takes fire and explodes much more
slowly than the dynamite. so that the
elastic air that incloses it. as it does
everything. gives way gradually and
the force is lost in the atmosphere
With dynamite the explosion has been
so sudden. the attack on the air so in
Simultaneous. that for a fraction Of a
second it actually resists. The force OF
the dynamite is so tremendous that Ii
cannot wait. and it is turned into the
rock. which for the instant becomes the
line of least resistance.
An Illustration of this may be seen
during a display Of lightning. A fork
of it strikes across the sky. 1t packs
the air so densely that It can no longer
make rapid progress in that direction.
and it turns aside to follow the line of
least resistance. 1t cannot wait for the
air to yield. 1t is the same with dyna.
mite.-Harper's Weekly.
