SPEED OF PR0JECTILES.
How the Velocity of Cannon Balls and
Bullets Is Measured.

How the Velocity of Cannon Balls and
Bullets Is Measured.
How fast does a bullet travel? The
highest velocity ever given to a cannon
ball is 1,626 feet per second. This is
equal to mile in little more than
three seconds. or nearly twenty miles
a minute.
A rifle bullet does not travel so fast
as q cannon ball, the average rate be-
ing 1875 feet per second. This mat
ter of speed is tested In a very inter-
esting way.
A long wooden shed is used, in which
a distance of exactly 100 feet has been
carefully marked off. AT each end of
this space is a stand something like a
target with large circular opening
where the bullseye should be. Across
each opening is stretched small cleo
trio wire, connected with a delicate
instrument in another room.
The rifle from which the firing Is
done is so aimed that the bullet which
flies from 1t cuts both wires. Obvious
ly the difference In time between the
cutting of the two wires marks the
speed of the bullet through that 100
feet.
When the first wire is cut an electric
current Is broken and rod falls, NOV
ing a pointer on slide in its descent
The breaking of the second wire acts
in the same manner on another set of
rods, slides and pointers.
The difference in the marks made by
the pointers on the slides makes 1t pos
sibe to estimate the difference In their
time Of falling and from these calcu-
lations accurate figures as to speed are
obtained.-London Answers.

GOING ROUND THE WORLD.
The Gain or Loss of One Whole Day In
Making the Trip.

The Gain or Loss of One Whole Day In
Making the Trip.
In sailing around the world eastward
the days are each a little less than
twenty-four hours, according to the
speed of the ship, as the sun is met a
little earlier every morning. These lit
tie differences added together will
amount to twenty-four hours. This
gives the sailors an extra day-not In
Imagination, but as an actual fact
They will have done an extra days
work, eaten an extra days ration Of
food and enjoyed an extra nights
sleep.
On the other hand, in sailing west
ward the sun is overtaken little each
day, and SO each day is rather longer
than twenty four hours, and clocks and
watches are found to be too fast. This
also will amount in sailing around the
world to the point of departure to one
whole day by which the reckoning has
fallen in arrears. The eastern bound
ship, then, has gained day, and the
western bound ship has last one.
This strange fact. clearly worked out,
leads to the apparent paradox that the
first named ship has a gain Of two
whole days over the latter, If we sup
pose them to have departed from port
and returned together. - Westminster

Six FoIlies of Science.

The six follies of science are the
squaring of the circle, perpetual mo-
ton, the philosophers stone. the elixir
of life, magic and astrology.
In all ages men of undoubted ability
have toiled early and late to unravel
the mysteries supposed to be connect
ed with these fascinating problems. II
is not always remembered that such
intellectual giants as Bacon, Sir Rob-
ert Boyle and Sir Isaac Newton sought
the philosophers stone. In the study
of astrology Lilly was for time even
pensioned by parliament.
Most of these "follies' conferred In
direct benefits upon science. for In
seeking one thing their devotees dis
covered many another. The craze for
the secret, or unknown, has still its
hold upon men and is seen in palmis-
try and kindred cults.-Exchange.

Official National Anthem.

Do you know the official national an
them. which is supposed to bring the
patriot to his feet?
No doubt you think you do, even, as
has been proved again and again, when
more than two or three Americans are
gathered together, that no one knows
more than phrase or two of the
words. but do you rise for Hail Co
lumbia." MY Country, IT'S of Thee"
or the "Star Spangled Banner?'
OF course l hear the army and navy
folk, familiar with regulations, say
Star Spangled Banner" but judging
from the actions of audiences at vaude-
vile and movie shows recently, with
most it is a tossup between all three,
with the odds favoring evenly Hail

one is it, do you really know?-Phila-

LIFE ON SWAN ISLAND.
Probably the Worlds Most Isolated

Probably the Worlds Most Isolated
Wireless Station.
On Swan island, in the Caribbean
sea, is situated what is probably the
most isolated wireless station In the
world. The station crew Is made up
of three operators, two engineers. a
cook. a machinist and three laborers.
No women are permitted to land on
the island. Men who express a will
ingness to go to Swan island are oblig-
ed to sign a contract whereby they
agree to remain at least eighteen
months or waive their right to free re-
turn transportation. Those remaining
the full period of service are returned
to their homes by way of one of the
Central American ports and are grant
ed six weeks vacation with full pay.
Strangely enough, there is no diff
Guilty in obtaining men to man the sta
ton. Applicants, indeed. exceed the
number of vacancies. Board and lodg-
ing, of course, are supplied, boat
bearing all provisions necessary, in-
Guiding fresh meat, and the mail as
well, arriving regularly every two
weeks. Some men have remained on
the island as long as two years and q
half and, subsequently, have been glad
to return to the statlon.-Philadelph

SEEKING HAPPINESS.
Little Things That Make Living Joy
Are Not Always Appreciated.


Are Not Always Appreciated.
We are told that happiness comes by
pieces and that 1t Is these small bits
linked together that make our lives
worth while. Some of us are not con-
tent to take our happiness by degrees
or at intervals. We want it all the
time in big pieces, and if we cannot
have 1t that way we think that we are
deprived of our natural rights and look
upon ourselves as injured beings.
1t Is a rather singular expression of
human nature how happiness affects
the Individual. With some of US 1t
makes us friendlier toward others and
anxious that they should experience
like joys; with others it makes us too
satisfied with ourselves to think very
much of our neighbors.
Perhaps those of us who know what
the Joy of living means have expert
enced both of these attitudes at diff
ferent periods of our lives and are in
position, therefore, to appreciate a
