The long days rolled by with the
thrills and the doubt that Bertha

folks are in love they don't eat

and Ferd in his clutch. So deep
was their love neither noticed the

throng. but Daisy and Ferd just
fingered along.
The landlady saw that they cared

And Daisy replied with a raptur-
Gus look. III cook what you buy

And so they were married and
left that old shack without once

Brave Ferdie was sure that the
light OF his life wouldn't eat half
so much as the average wife. And
Daisy was sure that her cooking
would do after all OF the hardships
the two had gone through.
A brief double moral we here

Your article on sound waves
prompts me TO inquire about the
statement often made. that sound
waves, or harmonics, OF a violin
could. under certain circumstances,
knock down a bridge or other SINH
lar structure OF steel.-W. E. S"
IL would have TO be a top bridge,
very loosely constructed, that could
be knocked down by vibrations
transmitted through the air from the
strings of a violin. But the possibil-
itv OF destructive mechanical effects
arising from the superposition of
successive Migratory impulses inn
parted By sound waves is clearly
enough indicated by three expert
ments described by Tyndall in his
lectures on Sound" as follows. IF
two clocks with pendulums OF the
same period of vibration be placed
against the same wall. and If one
of the clocks be set going and the
other not, the ticks of the moving
clock transmitted through the wall
will start its neighbor.
The pendulum. tthe means of
the second or non-moving clock)
moved by a single tick" COT the
other clock. swings through an eX-
tremely minute arc. but il returns
10 the limit OF its swing just in time
TO receive another impulse BY the
continuance OF this process the i'm
pulses so add themselves together as
finally TO set the clock going. IL is
by this timing Of impulses that a
properly pitched voice can cause a
gla 10 ring, and that the sound Of
an organ can break a particular
window pane
The word particular" as here
used by Prof Tyndall is very i'm
portant as a qualification OF the
statement in which it appears and
that statement cannot be properly
understood without the qualihca-
ton. II is the key TO the whole mat
ter Its significance is the same as
that of the statement in the descrip-
ton of the experiment with the
clocks. viz. that the pendulums
must have the same period Of vi
bration." In the case OF the win
dow pane. il is essential that il shall
have a natural period OF vibration
corresponding 10 that Of the sound
waves from the organ. for only thus
can the impulses derived from those
Il.
The same thing applies 70 the glass
rung by the impulses of vocal sound
waves Experiments OF this kind can
be extended almost indefinitely.
Thus. one tuning fork may set an
other. having the same pitch. into
action. and one violin may awaken
music from the strings OF another.
The mechanical applications OF
these principles depend upon the
evident fact that sound waves are
mass vibrations in physical me-
dunn, and consequently can hand
on their energy and produce mo-
ton in other things beside the air,
as an ocean billow hurls sand and
gravel up a beach.
