Why q Cold Bottle
Breaks If Taken
into q Warm Room
BY GARRETT P. SERVISS.

Milk bottles are made OF cheap m
perfectly annealed glass. whose mole
cules are frequently in Statc OF ten
sion which makes them liable to lose
their hold upon one another and fly
apart whenever little extra force is
applied,
Such force is supplied ii the thick
walls OF the bottle are strongly and
suddenly heated on one side, while
they arc at low temperature on the
other side. In your case the bottle
having been thoroughly refrigerated,
was, when removed from the iceboX,
very cold both within aud without, Its
mean temperature was probably near
the freezing point OF water, so that on
being removed into room where
The temperature was Is degrees, the
glass was suddenly brought into con-
tact with air forty or more degrees
warmer than itself
The cover probably being on, the
warm air did not enter the bottle, so
that the heating was applied TO the
exterior alone. The consequence was
a rapid expansion OF the outer layer
OF the glass while the interior re
manned in the relatively contracted
state induced by the cold, and the
strain thus produced in the texture
of the glass resulted in a crack,
Even il the cover of the bottle was
removed, so that the warm air could
enter, the thickness of the glass would
be likely to cause cracking, since cold
glass is poor conductor Of heat as
well as OF electricity, and the eX-
terror layers would warm up so much
faster than the deeper ones that Sc
we're strain would be produced be
tween them.
II we were content to leave the en-
PLANTATION here we should not have
made much philosophical advance in
our little study Of milk bottles, We
ought to 60 on and see how heat is
able to produce a strain in the interior
of piece OF glass sufficient to crack
it asunder, Why does heat expand
solid to which it is applied Because
what we call heat is simply vibra-
tory motion OF the molecules, or ulti-
mate particles Of which every body
consists.
Molecules are not atoms. but are
made up OF atoms, and it is by its
molecules, not by its atoms, that
every substance is Disseminated from
other substances, A molecule has
been defined as the smallest guam

other day about the distingue
French officers who are staying at

knew that these gallant Frenchmen,
whether they wish it or no, are re-
garded with some admiration by de-
lightful Omaha girls and women. The

GRATED with the cross OF the Legion

Mellihcia is in receipt of a polite but
stern reprimand from them, telling in
plain terms that they are here as soi-
diers, not as social lions. This is the
communication:

We have been told that you were a
very smart reporter; we beg to state
that we believe it, and we at first pay
our compliments to you for 1t.
But as we think none of lis ever
tried to fascinate you, we most re
spectfully beg you not being so smart
when you talk about US, unless you
want us to resent it,
You see, we came to Omaha with
out any intention OF fascinating any
one, of being cultivated by your ma
irons, of making your girls crazy
about us, neither supplying fun to
your wits We are no lions, we are
French soldiers, and that is quite
enough, believe us.
1--WE simply want everyone in
Omaha thinking good OF France,
speaking good of France, wishing
good to France. And yourself will
understand that you had better talk
less of the doings OF any one Of us;
it is not helping France, showing us
this way.
please, Melihcia, don't be sour

we don't want honey; we better see
you a member of the Alliance Fran
caise or adopting a war orphan.
