Direct or Alternating Currents.

1t doesn't matter much the how and
why of the difference between direct
current and an alternating current II
only you can tell which you are using.
or course you have to know this be-
cause appliances are made for one or
the other. and no appliance made for
an alternating current can be nsed
where direct current Is supplied. or
vice versa. So to order intelligently
you must either ask somebody who
knows or find out for yourself. Here is
a simple way to tell which Is which:
Hold simple magnet bar near a light
ed incandescent lamp. II the current
is alternating the filament-that is, the
part inside the lamp from which the
light emanates- vibrate; il the cur
rent is direct the f1ament will be at
tracted or repealed as the positive or
the negative pole Of the magnet IS held
near the lamp.-New York Sun.

~ occur" said veteran captain Of an
excursion boat.
Every captain of passenger carry
ing boat has the sinking of the Titanic,
the Slocum disaster and such accidents
on his mind continually, but somehow
it's not the accidents that really occur
that bring gray hairs.
"My first gray hair appeared when
was thirty three years old. Then was
running boat to Coney Island, and In
the lower bay fog settled down thicker
than mush. held compass course,
and everything went smoothly enough
until it was almost time to change the
course and head from the bay toward
Coney. l had heard boat-by her
whistle knew she was towing tug
pass me further up the bay.
Even though l could not see the
bow of~my boat was hanging with
my head out of the pilot house window
and straining my eyes to see when my
quartermaster. who was standing on
the very peak Of the bow, called for
me to reverse. rang for full speed
astern and threw the wheel hard to
port. ...-.- -.
"The fog lifted for an instant and
dead ahead of me / saw sc0w with
Dynamite written on her side and
red flag floating above her. | knew
that meant she was loaded with dyna-
mite, and the Lord pity us if we ran
her down. kept the wheel hard over,
and it seemed to me the engineer was
an eternity in getting the engine re-
versed. We Just grazed the dynamite
scow. l learned afterward that she
had been in tow Of tug and that the
hawser broke and the tug crew had
lost sight Of the scow- in the fog.
when got home that night my
wife pointed out gray hair-the first
had ever had. -
my next bad scare came one Sunday
when was captain Of another excur-
sion steamer. We were at the pier
loading passengers. There were two
hawsers out to the pier, and the one
astern broke. The gangplanks were
out, and, 1t being very hot day, peo-
| sple were locking aboard. There were
at least seventy-fve persons on the two
gangplanks when the hawser broke.
and the boat commenced to drift from
the pier. yelled, and the crew tried
to force the passengers of the gang
planks, but those in the rear kept push

t'There was only one thing to do. l
rang for reversed engines. With the
bow line out the reversing Of the boat
naturally backed her up against the
dock and held her there, but that bow
hawser was an old one, and If it broke
the boat would back away and dump
every one on the gangplanks into the
river.
ITO me it seemed like an age, but 1t
was really not more than minute I'm.
til they had another line out astern and
could stop the engine. That caused
several gray hairs.
''1n all my experience I've never had
a serious accident: but. as you see.

by things that almost happened."-
