MERELY A LAW OF NATURE
What at First Looks Like a Peculiar
ity Of Running Water Is Easy
Of Explanation.

Have you ever noticed. when the
water has almost all run odt of the
bathtub, how the light particles on
the surface seem then to race out
much faster than the water? AS a
matter of fact, they are travelling
faster than most of the water; but
no faster than that on the surface.
The reason is not far to seek. Run
ming water, even In river. goes at
different rates; but fastest on the top
surface right in the midle of the
stream. Friction with the sides and
bottom makes the water there go
more slowly SO the light particles
on top of the water In the bathtub,
rush ahead at a good rate.
This popularity in rivers Is utilized
by boatmen when they have to go up
swift stream they always paddle
up near the bank. And at curves. as
the water swings outward. they take
the inside bank for there the water
is almost still On the other hand, IN
coming down, the very center of the
stream is chosen.-Sunday Magazine
