An Experiment. With Sort of PSrPSt-
 uaI Motion Effect.

An Experiment. With Sort of POrPot-
 uaI Motion Effect.
 A novel experiment in the demon stration of perpetual motion is to be performed simply. A glass beaker about six inches high and four inches in diameter is filled with water to the height of about four and half inches, and two and one-haR to three ounces of commercial anillne are added, which will sink to the bottom of the vessel.
 The temperature of the beaker and it's contents is now raised to TO or 175 degrees F. by means of burner, when 1t will be observed that the aniline will rise to the surface of the water, from which 1t will hang in a mass of curved outline. Almost immediately the sus- pended aniline commences to alter in shape, and gradually a large drop an inch or more in diameter detaches it. self from the mass and falls through the water.
 And now, the detached drop having fallen to the bottom of the beaker, comes the surprising part of the ex- pertinent. The fallen drop is seen grad ually to rise to the surface, where 1t joins the mass from which 1t previous ly broke away. At once another droS commences to form and, having be- come detached, falls and rises in the same manner as the previous drop.
 So long as the temperature of the water is maintained at TO degrees or over this procedure continues.

OLD NEW ENGLAND CUSTOMS.
In the Days When Brides Were StotOn
 and Had to Re Ransomed.

and Had to Be Ransomed.
 A half savage custom prevailed in many early New England towns. A group of those young men who had not been invited to the wedding would invade the house when the marriage ceremony had been performed and drag away the bride to an inn or some other house, when the groom and his party would follow and rescue her by paying forfeit of dinner to the bride steal CTS. In western Massachusetts this custom fingered until Revolutionary times. In Judd's History of Hadley" the names of stolen brides are given. Mrs. Job Marsh, married in 17S3, is said to have been the last bride thus stolen. A very rough variation of this custom is reported to be still in vogue in some localities in Rhode Island. Mime. Sarah Knights in her journal of horseback ride from Boston to New York in 17O4 tells of ridiculous alter atiOn of this marriage custom, which she saw in COnnecticut-tO steal the bridegroom.
 Many other curious fashions prevail ed in different localities. In some towns the young men rode or ran to the brides house for a bottle of rum. In others the bees were told of the wedding and given bride cake. In still others the unmarried girls scrambled for the brides garter to see who would be married next.-Alice Morse Earle in Magazine of American History.

Hiah Cost of Hiah Livinu.

According to James Churchill, one of the famous New York restaurateurs, it costs the men who cater to the great throng of cabaret diners some $7O9,- 317,OOO a year to keep things going in the proper Gotham style. In itemized form he reckons rent at 40 millions, license tax and stamps 30A millions, payroll 175A millions, supplies 327 mil lions.
 This neat little sum is merely what it costs the proprietors, be it under stood. The amount paid in by regular and occasional habitues of the lobster palaces" may safely be put at 90 per cent more, or $1, ,O63, ,975, 500.

USING A MEDICINE DRoPPER
The More SIantino 1t Is Held the Big
 ger the DropG Will Be.


 ger the DrOps Will 6s.
 When using a medicine dropper 1t is important to use 1t correctly, especial ly if measuring out drops of some powerful medicine like strychnine, morphine or arsenic, for drops vary widely in their size.
 pr. R. P. Garrow of London recently reported to the Lancet the results of some experiments he had made with @ medicine dropper and u simple solu- tion. He measured the solution very carefully and then took it all up into a medicine drOpper, from which he turn ed 1t, drop by drop, holding the drop per at different angles and counting the drops as they fell.
 With the dropper held vertically (at an angle of 90 degrees with the hOri- zontaD its contents made 100 drops. Held at an angle of 50 degrees its con tents made elghty-two drops; at 20 de. grees they made sixty-eight drops, at 10 degrees they made sixty drops, and held horizontal they made only forty eight drops.
 In other words, the drops become progressively larger as the drOpper Is moved from the vertical position. A drop from a dropper held at an angle of 50 degrees is One-Quarter larger than normal; thus, if the nurse has to give sixteen drops and holds the dropper slanting she is really giving twenty. And the more slanting the drOpper the bigger the drops.

Arrangements have been made by the Connecticut State Council of Defense through its Committee on Sanitation and Medicine. of which Dr. O. O. Godfry of Bridgeport IS chairman, whereby men rejected as physically deficient may receive free treatment of minor physical defects to put them in condition to be accepted for military service. This plan, according to an announcement made at she State Council of Defense offices at she State Capitol in Hartford applies both to volunteers and men who have been chosen under the seleotive ser vice law. Those who will accept this treatment under these conditions may apply to any member of the county auxiliary committees on medicine, hygiene and sanitation, organized for the council of defense by Dr. Godfrey. A list of these physicians is given for Holland county: Dr. Eli P. Flint, Rockville: Dr. William l.. Higgins, South Coventry; Dr. Donald l.. Ross, Mansfield Depot; Dr. John P.

which were In the stern sheets, eau tioning the men to make the precious fluid go as far as possible.
 l could enlarge upon the sufferings we endured, tell you about the calm days which succeeded, how the scorch- ing rays of the sun beat down upon our heads and how the men with noble generosity surrendered their few drops of water to the pale, suffering woman, who never murmured once, though her brain was all but on fire and her tongue parched and swollen in her mouth.
 You can imagine my feelings when the last crumb of bread was exhausted and the beaker had been drained dry. Death in its most terrible form, with the attending horrors of hunger and thirst, stared us ill the face, and I grOaned in anguish as gazed upon the now inanimate form of the poor girl. She was dying-perhaps dead already and stretched myself by her side to meet the fate I was powerless to avert.
 Well, we were picked up shortly after by a Brazilian fishing boat. placed aboard a man-Ofwar cruising on the coast, and the surgeon soon had us un- der his care. Strange to say, none of us succumbed to the privatiOns We had undergone, but We all recovered to congratulate one another upon our eS- cape. The SenOr Jose Gonzales fairly hugged me in his delight at the escape of his daughter and insisted upon my making his residence my home. The 1o@ A-- T their most sanguine hopes, and I-well, I rewarded myself by marrying the fair heiress, and when her father died a few years ago I assumed full control of the estates.
 AS for the old brig and Captain Thompson, neither was ever seen or heard from after the terrible storm which swept the coast of South Amer ica, strewing its shores with the wreck of many a noble craft.

 I'll be on deck in moment. Don't be in a hurry. Don't like to run the vessel off her course her voy- age" And, leaving the sleepy skipper grumbling to himself, I regained the deck.
 In a few moments the old fellow was by my side. * ~
 Ut will cost money to take all hands off yOn craft and feed them till we make port"
 ''True, sir; but is human life to be reckOned or valued by money? In all probability there are poor fellows there in danger of their lives who, if we leave them to their fate, would place us on a footing with pirates" And, turning abruptly, walked aft, having expressed my indignation in voice tremulOus with anger.
 Bless my soul, MT. Watkins, would not leave any one to perish. was only calculating the chances in a commer- cial point of view. You can hoist the lOngbOat out if you like and take four of the boys for a crew to pull you to her. She will burn down to the waters edge if you wait for us to get there. It is growing calmer all the time, and to tell the truth, MT. Watkins, would advise you to bear a hand and get back as soon as possible, for I don't like the looks of the weather. The air is hot and Oppressive-like."
 In ten minutes I had the longboat over the side, and a stout, weatherly craft she was too. A bag of biscuits, together with a beaker of water, was slowed away in the stern sheets, and. bidding the lads to give way with will, we showed off from the sides of the old brig. I saw the tall, bent form of Captain Thompson peering down upon me for moment, but the next in- stant the boat rose on the bottom of a swell, and that was the last ever saw of my old skipper.
 The brig quickly faded from sight, hid by a thin mist of haze which had suddenly arisen, and, in fact, was conscious of strange change in the appearance of the weather. The stars had entirely disappeared from the Armament, hid behind the gauzy veil which had so mysteriously arisen, and low down on the horizon I noted a dark bank of clouds. The heat was intense, the stout seamen wiping the perspira- tion from the streaming brows as they tOiled at the oars. Not a breath of air disturbed the glassy waters. All na-
