AMUSING TRICK WITH WHEEL
seems to Revolve Automatically With
out Any External Power-Appar-
atus Is Very Simple.

The mystery of this wheel is that
1t seems to revolve automatically
without any visible external power. 1t
is at the same time an amusing trick
and an. instructive experiment. The
apparatus required is very simple and
can be made at home. says the Popu.
lar Mechanics.
A glass bottle is half filled with
sand and water, SO that it will stand
securely, and cork placed in the
neck. Into this cork a needle should
be inserted so that it projects perpen-
dicularly. which is most easily done
by heating one end Of the needle to
a red heat and then pushing it into
the cork as deeply as possible. Into a
disk of cork of suitable thickness and
at four points on its side, as equal dis
tances apart, are inserted four pieces
of copper wire of the same length.

Few Domestic SquabbIes.
The women Of this strange tribe
seem conscious Of the fact that the
men are more attractive, for they are
satisfied to do their hard work and to
allow the men to amuse themselves as
they will. They give them the most
comfortable corner in the dwellings
and never eat until their lords and
masters have had their fill and have
taken the choice bits of food. They
rarely quarrel with their husbands,
believing 1t is mans privilege to rule
and for them to obey.
When not working or hunting the
women while away the time making
their few simple clothes for them
selves and their children or seated
before their huts chatting and gos-
siping.
The men are indolent when not
hunting. They even find 1t an exer.
tion to make their arrowheads and
prefer to barter for them. This they
do by going to a stream after mid.
night and placing their game on the
bank Of the river. Their neighbors
on the other side of the stream find
the provisions there and the next
night they come and leave. some ar
rowheads in their place. The busi-
ness is usually transacted in this sill.
ent manner, for the men are as tao
turn with each other as with the
women. -
In the last few years missionaries
have come in large numbers into their
villages, establishing schools and
churches, teaching the men to work.
and trying to make the women ap-
preciate their worth The people who
live in the villages seem to imbibe
their ideas, the others listen to all
this wise instruction, and then go
back to their old ways and customs.

GOOSE LAYING SEASON HERE
Advisable to Start Upon Small Scale
and Run Two Geese With Each
Gander-Get Early Eggs.

One Of the best seasons for pur-
chasing geese is during the latter part
OF the year, for then the birds have
chance to settle down properly be-
fore the laying season, which in the
case Of geese begins at the end of
January. 1t is advisable to start
upon small scale and to run two
geese to each gander. They should
be housed in roomy, dry floored quar-
ters that are we'll ventilated without
being draughty. Use dry straw as lit
ter and renew frequently.
When the birds are of the right
type the young usually take after
them in this respect, but to assure
size 1t is necessary that early eggs
be produced, for unless the young are
Matched early they have no time to
develop before the cold days are en-.
countered. The way to produce early
eggs Is to see that the birds are Well
fed during the autumn, time when
much Of the natural food picked up
is apt to be short of nutriment.

Nav and December,

To be young, rich, handsome, and a
widow is to have reached the summit
of earthly good fortune. So, at least,
say the French; and what they haven't
thought of in these lines isn't worth
thinking of.
The cynical proverb helps to ex.
plain why women of twenty marry
men Of three or four times their age.
At that age every woman knows she
is young, and thinks she is hand
some, and has right to expect to
be a widow. II the aged husband is
sufficiently wealthy. his young bride
has an earthly heaven right in sight.
But the desire for widowhood
doesn't explain all such cases. It
doesn't explain the. most interesting
ones. Those in which there is clear.
ly very real affection between the
pair who represent December and
May. How about these?
1t is all guesswork, Of course, but
one can suggest some factors which
may contribute to these cases.
Every young woman has the moth
ering instinct strongly developed,
even in her youth. An unwived old
man is one of the most forlorn look
ing objects on earth. She marries
him to take care of him.
A man who has had experience OF
the world is more skillful suitor
than the bashful boy-if boys these
days are ever bashful This gives
him an advantage similar to that
which widow has over young girl.
Whatever the case. May and De-
cember continue to wed. In spite of
proverbs and dire prophecies; and q
good share Of the time they get on
so we'll that tho world never hears

Mysterious Revolving Wheel.

circular shape and held in the hooks
on the ends of the copper wires. The
now completed wheel Is balanced on
the free point on the needle. so that 1t
can turn easily.
Place an alcohol lamp in such a po-
sition that when 1t is lighted the tip
of the flame will just reach the rim of
the wheel. (Any other fame that will
not SCOT the rim may be used.) In the
box A, placed with its bottom level
with the wheel, put a horseshoe mag
net SO that the flame is opposite one
of its poles. After the lamp has been
lighted for few seconds, the wheel
will begin to revolve, seemingly with.
out cause. Why does it do SO? Be-
cause the magnet magnetizes or at
tracts the part of the ring nearest it
while cold, but not when 1t is glow
ing. Instead, it will attract the cooler
part of the ring nearest behind the
flame and so on, the wheel thus spin
ming round, faster in the same proper
ton as the magnet is stronger and the
iron rim smaller.
If this experiment is shown before
spectators as trick. the performer
may say to the audience that he alone
can make the wheel spin around with
out touching it. Should some one &C
cept his challenge, he may, in care
less way, move the box containing the
magnet away or turn it around so that
1t will not influence the iron ring and
then, Of course, the wheel will remain
immovable
