MOLECULES AND HEAT.
Why Hot Water DisssoIves Most Sub
stances Quicker Than Cold


stances Quicker Than Cold.
Most housewives know that sugar
will dissolve far more quickly in hot
water than In cold, but very few know
that salt will dissolve in cold water
just as quickly as when the water is
boiling. In this salt is somewhat of
an exception, for most substances dis
Solve much more easily when water is
hot
The reason for this was a mystery in
the middle ages, and it is only since
the modern knowledge of molecules
that it could be explained.
Heat is nothing more nor less than
an increase In the speed with which
the molecules are revolving. This is
easily seen in molasses. When very
cold it will hardly flow at all, when
warmed it will pour slowly, but when
boiling hot it will pour in a thin sirup
almost as liquid as milk. In the same
way boiling water is more liquid than
cold water.
AS dissolving a piece of sugar means

spaces between the molecules of the
water, the more quickly they are NOV
ing the easier it is for the sugar to get
it For, it must be remembered, you
can fill q glass to a certain level, and
after that put in two, three or even
four Jumps of sugar and the glass will
be no fuller than before.
The reason for this is shown by
merely thinking of the process on a
large scale. Suppose bowl were filled
full of marbles. You could pour a lot
of bird shot into it without making the
marbles rise any higher in the bowl
The shot would be filling in all the lit
tie cracks between the marbles. and If
you stirred the marbles slowly the
shot would little by little find its place
That is like the sugar i'll cold water.
But if the marbles were being whirl-
ed around rapidly the shot would rap
idly fill every place and the bowl
would be full of shot. Yet the marbles
would not &c any higher in the bowl.
Then, after all that, you could pour
water into the bowl and 1t would get
into the small spaces between the
round shot, and still the marbles would
not be any higher in the bowl.
1t is in this way that substances
which have been dissolved find their
way into the liquids into which they
have been dissolved.-New York Amer

Matter of Precedence.

a discussion once arose in the Uni
yersity Of Cambridge whether doctors
at law or doctors in medicine should
hold precedence. The chancellor asked
whether the thief or the hangman pre-
ceded at an execution. Being told that
lie thief usually took the lead, "Well,
then" said the chancellor, ''let the doc
tors in law have the precedence and
let doctors in medicine be next in

MEloWerYn Names.

Many Of the Chinese names are of
"fowery' character. The Chinese min
lister at Washington for many years
was WI Ting Fang, a name which sig
mites fragrant place" The name of
the minister to England at the same
time was Lo Feng Lo, meaning "a rich
harvest" while the name of the con-
temporary minister to France, Yu
Keng, signified 'much gold" The reg
ular name for little Chinese girl baby
is "My thousand ounces of gold"

NAMING a City.

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer
we learn that the modern spelling Of
the name of the city is due to the error
Of a type manufacturer who sent to
the Cleveland Herald, in 1881, a new
set Of type which was too "fat," as
printers say. In other words, too wide
to allow the heading Of the paper to
be spelled in the old and correct way.
As the correction Of the mistake was
a matter of about ten weeks, so slow
were the transportation facilities of
those days, the printer suggested that
the first "a" be left out Of the name.
It was done, and thus the town re-
ceived a new name.

The Human Brain.

Our brains are seventy year clocks.
The angel Of life winds them up once
for all, then closes the case and gives
the key into the hand Of the angel Of
the resurrection. Tick-tack, tick-tack,
go the wheels Of thought. Our will
cannot stop them. They cannot stop
themselves. Sleep cannot still them.
Madness only makes them go faster.
Death alone can break into the case,
and, seizing the ever swinging pendu-
lum which we call the heart, silence
at last the clicking Of the terrible es-
capement we have carried so long
beneath our wrinkled foreheads. -

TWO MINDS THAT DID AS ONE.
When Or. Anna Shaw and Miss An
thony Lectured Toqether.

thony Lectured Together.
Writing of her lectures for suffrage
with Susan B. Anthony, DR.. Anna
Howard Shaw says in the Metropoli-
tan Magazine:
Ne Travelled and lectured together so
comtantly that each of US developed
al almost uncanny knowledge Of the
others mental processes. At any point
6f elther's lecture the other could pick
L up and carry It Of IA fortunate con-
&Hoh, Is It s9medmes became neces-
safy to DO this. Miss Anthony was
subject to contractions Of the throat,
which for the moment caused slight
strangulation. On such occasions-of
which there were several-she would
turn to me and indicate her helpless
ness. Then 1 would repeat her last
sentence, complete her speech and aft
erward make my own.
The first time this happened we were
In Washington, and Aunt Susan stop
ped in the middle of word She could
not speak; she merely mOtioned to me
to continue for her and left the stage.
At the end of the evening a prominent
Washington man who had been in our
audience remarked to me confden-
TALLY:
"That was a nice little play you and
Miss Anthony made tonight-very eff
fective indeed"

repeated. at hit the audience hard"
Surely" 1 protested, you don't
think it was a deliberate thing-that
we planned or rehearsed it?'
He stared at me incredulously.
"Are you going to pretend" he de-
manded, that it wasn't put up job?'
told him he had paid US a high
compliment and that We must really
have done very well if We had con-
veyed that impression, and 1 finally
convinced him that We not only had
not rehearsed the episode, but that
neither of US had known what the 9th
er meant to say. We never wrote out
our speeches, but our subject was al
ways suffrage or some ramiication of
suffrage, and naturally we had thor
oughly digested each others views.

LIFE ON A SUBMARINE.
There Are No Comforts, and Sleep Is
Almost Impossible.

Almost IhPOSSIDi0s
Speaking Of life on a submarine, one
Of Uncle Sans naval officers stationed
on one of these under sea terrors says:
"Every minute the men are in the
submarine means the risk Of pneumo-
mia and tuberculosis. The entire in
side Of the boat sweats like a pitcher
OF fee water on a hot day. Before we
are on it three hours our clothes are
soaked, and they stay that way. We
have absolutely no heat, which means
that the boat is the temperature Of the
outside air. Sometimes we nearly
freeze. Tie doctors say that the men
on a submarine never sleep; they
merely become unconscious for brief
intervals. The air, the odors from the
machinery, the constant vibration and
the intense strain under which you la
Dor make sleep an impossibility.
''In a storm, when we have to seal
up, the afr gets worse than anything
you can imagine. There are eighteen
men and two officers in one Of our
boats, and at any moment any one of
the twenty may cause the death Of all
the rest. There is no room for mis-
takes The space in which the men
live is fifty feet long and about ten
feet wide. I can stand upright If 1
pick my place, but most Of the time
my shoulders are bent. There are no
bunks; we all spread our mattresses
on an iron deck. The dining room con-
sists Of four electric hot plates. Moth
ing in the nature Of a spark is allowed
below decks, but we can heat up cof-
fee on the hot plates and occasionally
fry things. We can't smoke, and the
vibration Of the engines makes it i'm
possible to read or even play cards, so
when We are not working there's moth
ing for US to do but sit on the floor
and look ct each other"-Pittsburgb

The Way This Is Done Will Affect
Their Wearing Qualities.
Gloves are an expensive item of
dress, especially for the business wo-
a The drawing on and of OF
gloves three or -four times a day causes
greater havoc than the actual veal
that they get while on the hands. To
minimize the strain gloves should al
ways be "coaxed' on. finger by finger,
thumb and hand.
A finger twisted when the glove is
first put on will invariably remain
twisted until the glove is worn out
A hasty jerk or an impatient push be-
tween the fingers will often result in
al unsightly, unmendable tear that is
not the fault of the kid.
When gloves are removed the top
should be turned back over the hand
to the fingers, then back and fingers
should be firmly grasped and the glove
gently drawn off. When turned back
to normal position the glove should be
pulled lengthwise.

Liberal Supply OF Space Essential For

However, the general tendency now
adays seems to be away from closed
c~upboards. If doors are used ample
space should be allowed in the room
for them TO swing out. If space is
limited two narrow doors may be bet
ter than one wide one, or the doors
may be made to slide instead of swing.
Where any kind of door is impracti-
cable a curtain on a spring window
