ELECTRIC SPARKlNG.
Light on a Puzzle That Has Worried
 Many Car Owners.

Light on Puzzle That Has Worried Many Car Owners.
 It is a sad and common experience to men in motorboats, automobiles, etc., to find that something is wrong with the spark. Often it is the case that
 when the spark plug is taken out and tested in air it shows up all right, and will ignite gasoline poured around it,
 but when put back into position it will | not work. This is puzzle to great many people today.
 The reason lies in the simple fact | that the spark, when 1t takes place in the cylinder, has to spark in compress ed gas, and when in the air it doesn't. It is well known scientific fact that the pressure of the gas determines how far a spark will jump under a given
 voltage If the spark jumped a quar- ter inch in the open air and was placed in vessel with most of the air pumped out, it would jump several inches; and, on the other hand, if placed in con- pressed air it would not jump more than a fraction of the quarter inch. Of course the thing to do in the circum- stances is to get new batteries, and if so situated that that is impossible the two little terminals of the spark plug should be pushed closer together. Then the spark will pass in the compressed gas inside the cylinder.
 If explosion does not take place then the spark is probably so small that it is wholly immersed either in air or in the gasoline vapor, and to have an ex- plosion it must be immersed in a mix ture of the two The carburetor should then be tinkered with. The probabil ities are that a part of the time ex- plosions will take place and will be sufficient to keep up forward motion at reduced speed.-Chicago Herald.

DOPPLER'S LAW OF LIGHT.
1t Proves That Our Solar System !.
 Whirinq Northward.

1t Proves That Our Solar System Is
 Whirling Northward.
 The fact that our solar system is travelling northward at a rate of twelve miles per second has been determined by means of one of the most remark. able laws in the entire history of science. Doppler's law of light. Stand by railway track and listen to rapid train approaching. As it approaches the bell OF whistle will increase the pitch of its sound and instantly lower the pitch of tone after it passes and recedes, When coming more waves enter the ear and less when it is departing.
 Light consists of the action of waves on the retina of the eye. Our earth and sun, all bodies in the solar system, are moving to point in the celestial vault not far from the star Vega, In the constellation Lyra, and. of course. receding from the opposite point of the sky. Waves entering the slit of the pevtrosSope from the northern stars are compfessed-namely, more enter per second and are dispersed toward the violet end of the spectrum less en- ter from the southern stars and are dispersed toward the red.
 Now, exalted mathematics, based on the laws of light. determine the extent of dispersion of waves toward the red or violet fer each decrease or increase of motion of light emitting bodies. and the amount actually found by expert ment confirmed the mathematical for mulas-a proof that modern mind is expressing at very exalted rate.-Ed- gar Lucien Larkin.

Scarino the Conscience,

Of all her curious customs London cannot boast of a more singular one that that formerly so strictly adhered to at Holland House. one of the most historic old mansions in the British capital The last of the Lords Holland shot himself during q fit of despond ency. Everything pointed to a clear case of self murder, yet the Holland family could never be dissuaded from the notion that the old man had been murdered by some unknown assassin. Accordingly every night for years 1t was the custom for one of the family to go to the rear of the house punctu, ally at II o'clock and fire gun for the purpose. it is said, of soaring the con- science" of the murderer. This curl ous practice is relic of medieval days in continental Europe, and the ease in point is probably the only in. stance where it has been noticed since the days of the crusades.

The first record of its use on land is that of a famous war lord of the eleventh century; again in the fifteenth century the emblem was adopted by the feudal lords and warriors.

ing, flirting and improper conduct gen.
orally were referred to. Principal
Jackson pictured a boy of the school

told the girls they should consider
every puff an insult. He referred, too,
to the immodest custom of girls call.

Yet we marvel at the lack of re.

today. If this sort Of thing continues
among u high school students, in
the next generation there will be no
respect for social conventions, or pos
sibly nc conventions to respect. What
can mothers be thinking about when
they dress their sixteen or seventeen
year old daughters like a fashion

feminine modesty when young girls,
