Air Particles Get Their
Force From the
Fan.
Fan.

The air particles get their force
from the fan as the bullets get
theirs from the gun, and Just as
the gun recoils with a force equal
to that which it imparts to the
bullets, so the fan, whether driv-
en- by electricity or steam or
turned by hand, inevitably recoils
with the same amount of force
that it imparts to the air.
To make clearer the COMPARE
son between a stream of bullets
from a gun and a stream of wind
from an electric fan, imagine a
Maxim gun placed at the rear of
boat and an impenetrable target
at the front, and then suppose
that the gun should hurl a con-
tinuous current of bullets against
the target, Anybody can see that
the boat would not be driven for
ward, because the recoil of the
gun would constantly force it
backward with the same energy
with which the bullets, striking
the target, forced it ahead.
But if the gun were placed on
shore or on another support its
stream of bullets, striking the tar
get, would drive the boat forward,
because then their effect would be
like that of a wind blowing freely
across the water and having no
connection with anything on the
boat.
An ordinary wind is able to
drive a boat whose sail it strikes
because its reaction Chat of the
wind) is not upon the boat, but

RI book, "On Board the Good
Ship Earth" just issued by
the Bobbs- Merrill Company, of
Indianapolis, surveys humanity in
the large. This commentary on
Oriental overcrowding has {,
warning for our continent Mr..
Quick says:
THE poverty of the masses in
the Orient is full of awful inter
est to us-of awful warning and
of sort of fearful hope. 1t
shows us the dread condition
which comes from overpopulation
which is a matter for fear.
Those who say that such pow
erty as we Caucasians now suf-
fer from is in no manner caused
by overpopulation are right. We
have in these United States still
more than twenty acres for the
sustenance OF every person. In
japan there is but third OF an
acre. Some Japanese, however,
are supported by trade and man
ufaotures and draw their support
from other acres than those of
Japan.
But in the Shantung province
OF China, DR.. King found lands
supporting 3,S4O people of
strictly rural population to the
square mile, or 24O to a 40-acre
farm. The island of Chungmlng,
with 270 square miles, has $500
people TO the square mile, and
only one large city any part OF
whose people could draw susie
nance from outside the island, II
is safe to say, therefore, that un-

twice such poverty as we have

Emilio CASTELAR,, a
Republic Builder
By REV. T. B. GREGORY.

IN HE fall Of the Spanish Re
public 40 years ago mark
ed the close OF the political
career OF Emilio Castelar,, the
greatest man that Spain has pro-
duced since Cervantes.
Born at old Cadiz in 1889,
CASTELAR,, by the sheer force Of
genius, worked his way up TO the
very summit OF popularity among
the Spanish Progressives, and,
joining the revolutionists in 1868,
did heroic service in the cause OF
the liberty to which he was SO
ardently devoted. The revolu-
tionists condemned him to death,
but he escaped to France.
Upon the abdication of King
Amadeo, in 1878. CASTELAR, became
Minister OF Foreign Affairs, and
later on President of the repub-
lie. The new constitution, pro-
claimed July 1873, was largely
tNe WORK OF castelar,. 1t provided
for the complete separation of
church and state. absolute free
dom of religion, the abolition of
the nobility, universal suffrage
and equality of taxation.
The republic lasted only eleven
months, from the 18th OF Febru-
airy, 1878, to January 4. 1874 The
membership of the Senate and
Congress was largely monarchical
In sentiment, and it was the
magical eloquenCe OF CASTELAR,,
and that alone, that kept the re-
public alive for the few months
of It's checkered existence

There is one effect of the cleo
trio fan which might surprise you
it would tend to drive your boai

would push against air like the
propeller of an aeroplane and to
make 1t drive your boat forward
you would have to face the fan
around. so that its reaction would
be upon the atmosphere behind
instead of ahead of the boat, ana
in either case your sail would be
not only useless but an encum
brance.

kkTF an electric fan could be
made large enough to
throw a sufficient amount
of wind to move a small sailboat,
and such fan was placed on the
end of boat with the wind from
the fan blowing against the sail
on the very boat the fan is on, is
it possible that it could move the
boat? The argument Is that the
fan. being on the same boat as
the sail, can not move itself. But
as the air detaches itself from
the fan and hits the sail, my idea
is that it can, provided it has the
strength to move the boat. Please
give an answer"
This question Is worth answer
ing lOT Two ISdsUllS. lTSt, US-
cause it is a woman who asks 1t;
and second, because 1t involves
principle OF physics that ought to
be universally understood, and
ignorance of which may lead to
the waste Of both time and money
upon inventions that will not
work
The writer of the question
thinks that because the air, as she
expresses 1t, is detached from"
the fan when 1t starts off to
strike the sail, it ought to act like
an ordinary wind and push the
boat before it. But she would
not think so If she reflected that
the particles of air driven from
the fan resemble swarm of bull
let's shot from gun.
