HAVE KNOWLEDGE OF SCIENCE
Proof That Savage Tribes Are Pos
sessed of More Than documentary
Ideas About Known Facts.

While lecturing on atoms at the
Royal institution Sir Joseph Thomson
alluded to an extraordinary method for
obtaining fire that was practiced by at
least two savage tribes-a method In
which compressed air was used says
the London Standard.
Sir Joseph had just been explaining
how intense cold could be produced by
suddenly expanding air and how equal
ly intense heat could be caused by
COMPRISING it. ct is one of the most
extraordinary things In connection
with the habits OF savage races" he
continued, shat at least two tribes
use this method to get fire. 1t is an
extremely difficult problem to know
how ever they got hold of-the idea,
am quite sure they did not obtain it
from lectures on physics, so It must
have come from some kind of practi-
cal experience"
Even with special apparatus 1t was
not easy to accomplish this feat in
laboratory. One could easily under
stand how men had discovered that
branches rubbing together sometimes
caught fire. This would give the idea
of rubbing sticks together, but so
highly complex an operation as maxi
ing fire by COMPRISING air could hard
ly have been copied from any natural
phenomenon.
The only thing he could think of was
that these tribes must have been ac-
customed to shoot their arrows from
blowpipes If one OF these wooden
tubes got obstructed It was conceiv-
able that vigorous efforts to dislodge
the obstruction would cause the blow
pipe or some part of 1t to take fire.
The larger part of the lecture was
taken up by an explanation of the varl-
GUS ways in which atoms had been
counted and the wonderful agreement
between the results obtained by diff
ferent methods. The figures are amaz-
ing. Two grams (about thirty gra1ns)
of hydrogen contain so many atoms
that no ordinary nomenclature can be
used in expressing the number. If put
down In ordinary numerals It would be
6S, followed by 22 clphers, which
means that cubic centimeter of gas
contains 275, followed by II clphers
Even these gigantic numbers are ex
ceeded by the number of ultimate cor
puscles in the same volume of gas. Nc
, perfectly reliable measurements have
yet been made, but Sir Joseph STATED
, his belief that a molecule of mercury
, contained between 400 and 600 of these
electrified corpuscles.

New York.-Fifty thousand women

tives. says Mrs. Alma Webster Powell.
B. A., M. A., LII. D.
Rev Howard Melish declares that
unless economic conditions are chang

More than one-half will be of indie
pendent means who have married men
with the expectation of supporting
them, as is the assertion made by the
New York Sunday World.
Such is Mrs. Powell's statement,
based upon her own personal knowl-
edge and observations of the present
trend Of the times.

all statisticians that one-fifth of the

the women are entirely too ready to
work independently. They have not
the moral courage to stand back Of
their husbands and spur them on to
do anything that comes to hand.
"The majority of men have some
special trade or profession and think
IL they cannot get work of that par
ticular nature they cannot and will
not work at anything else.

ployed in the places of the children;

OLD ERRORS THAT PERSIST

One is surprised to find that in the

hidden quaint and curious ideas, dis

the maker of almanacs.
To suggest a few of these old
friends: The Church of England was
founded by Henry VIII. because the
pope would not allow him to marry
Anne Boleyn, meets one constantly.
Another interesting item is that the
puritans were so much purer and bet
ter than the members of the Church
Of England that they were prosecuted
for religion.

AS the cost of numbering the popu-
lation of the United States, and the
collection OF other statistics, cost the
thirteenth census over $3.50 per In
habitant, Director Durand, in his an
nual report suggests that mall car
riers be used for future census work.
He calls attention to the fact that
much of the work was unsatisfac-
tory, and also to the difficulty in in
ducing competent men to take up the
work for the brief time in which they
are engaged as numerators.
This branch, the field work. cost
the government s7,223,3S5, or about
$1.25 per lnhabltant. and Mr.. Durand

somewhat similar training. The post

plan.

centenarIss of Gas.

In 1892 manufacturer in Redruth,
in Cornwall, named Murdoch made gas
to light his home and factory. Pail
Mall in London, 1907, was the. first
street to be lighted by gas; Philadel-
phla introduced 1t in 1915; Boston in
1922, and New York in 1925. Gas is
obtained from coal, which is heated
in large retorts; the heavy gas drawn
on passes by pipe, called Il the chg fy-
draulic main, through number of
curved pipes called condensers, in
which process coal tar and ammoni-
acal liquor condense and fall into
we'll. The gas passes to purifiers over
slaked lime, which takes up sui
phureted hydrogen and carbonic acid;
It is then headed downward to the gas
holder. a large tank having its base
resting on water, and from which the
gas is distributed to the consumers.
Certain byproducts are obtained in the
course of manufacture which are more
valuable than the gas itself; these in
clude coke, ammonia, anilin, phenol, or
carbolie acid, naphthalene dyes, vari-
GUS artificial drugs and basic perfumes.
