Reducing a Pound to NOTHING.

In what form is lead lighteSt on the
scales? A British scientist has at
tempted to tell how to make the proof.
but it isn't the easiest thing in the
world either to prepare the pound of
lead or place 1t in position for the
proof. He says that making 1000 small
balls Of the pound of lead the weight
remains the same though the surface is
greatly increased. Then reduce the
small balls into 100000 balls. with
the surface enormously increased. but
the balls still weigh the one pound in
the scales. But this scientist says that
If these 100000 shot particles further
are reduced to one twenty thouSandtb
Of an inch each, they will rest in the
atmosphere just where they are
placed. This for the reason that that
pressure of light from the sun exactly
overcomes the forces of gravitation
To make the lead bits smaller, how.
ever. the scientist says that the sun
light seizes them and hurles them into
space.

Il Made . Deep Impression on Little
Julia, and She Did Her Best.
'Be not forgetfu to entertain stran
gers, for thereby some have entertain
ed angels unawares."
The foregoing quotation is from
chapter xiii, verse 2. book of Hebrews.
and it is introduced solely because 1t
constitutes vital part of this story.
Julia is ten years old. and she goes to
Sunday school. 1t appears that on a
recent occasion the Sunday school
teacher had considerable to say about
this matter OF entertaining angels un-
awares." Anyway, it made deep i'm
preston with Julia.
A few days after the lesson Julia's
mother left her in charge of the house
for few hours. When the mother re-
turned she went to particular cup in
the cupboard to extract therefrom a
half dollar. In this cup is kept the
family pin money. and Julia's mother
knew that she had put so cents there
before she had gone out But the
half dollar was gone. There was an
expression OF anxiety on Julia's face.
and mother scented mischief
'Did you take that money!" asked
the mother, somewhat severely.
Julia broke into tears. 81 gave it to
a man that came to the back door,"
sobbed the little girl.

mother. What for"

UNCLE JAKE DIDN'T AGREE.
The Old Man Upheld His Reputation
For Being Contrary.

For Being Contrary.
Uncle Jake" was one of the char
acters Of Banbury. He was as deaf
as a post-when he wanted to be
and as contrary as a bundle OF sticks.
One of his neighbOrs came into his
yard one day and said: Uncle Jake,
I'd like to borrow your wagon this
morning. Mine is having spring
mended."

Joined Uncle Jake. Il don't hear very
well, and don't like to lend my
wagon anyhow"
The old man was an expert maker
of AK helves-an occupation In which
there is more art than the uninstruct-
ed would suppose-and these handles
he left at the village store to be sold
on commission. One snowy day. rs
Uncle Jake cume stamping up the steps
of the store, another old fellow who
was known as Uncle Horace remarked
10 the men lounging about the stove:
''I'll treat the crowd IL | don't make
Uncle Jake agree to the first thing
say to him when he comes in"
Don't be rash. Uncle Horace" call
ed out the storekeeper. THAT never
happened yet. and it isn't likely to-"
But Uncle Horace merely grinned
and picked up one of Uncle Jake's ak
helves. The door opened. and in came

FEARS THE FRIGATE BIRD.
The BOBBY Even Catches Fish to Feed
His Merciless Master.

The BOBBY Even Catches Fish to Feed
His Mereiless Master.
The BOBBY bird never leaves the
broad seas, where his harsh cry is
heard from the Hebrides to the Faroes
and from the cliffs of Scotland to the
coast of Norway. He revels In the
storms and screams above the roar Of
the sea. The BOBBY has green feet,
yellow eyes and defiant head COW
cred with yellow cap. Each of Its
wings is three feet long and its beak
is so stiff and so strong that 1t fears
no enemy but the frigate bird.
The frigate bird is the terror of the
birds of the sea, though he Ignores all
but the BOBBY. Owing to the breadth
of his wings, the frigate cannot fish:
he is forced to remain in the air. But
as he cannot get fish in the air and
as he requires fish for bis nourish-
ment he presses the BOBBY into his
service. When hungry he swoops
down upon the BOBBY and gives Il a
vigorous thrust in the throat. Then
the booby's mouth opens and the fish
caught In it drops out The frigate
has only to give one peck at the
booby's throat to get his dinner.
1t happens occasionally that the
BOBBY attacked by the frigate has
nothing in its mouth. When the
frigate pecks in vain he belabors his
slave with his beak and drives him.
