; ideals But an actual ideal is n
shining thing like a guiding star.
The man Of today does admire
the woman who clings to her vision
of what Is fine and true. Perhaps
the lounge lizard" type of man
doesn't. Unquestionably the waster
and weakling who wants his
pleasure of the moment hasn't any
conception of the inner JOY to be
derived from strengthening charac,
ter. So he neither develops ideals
in himself nor longs to find them
in a woman.
But what fine woman wants to
spend the rest of her life with q
man who is either weak, degraded
or in any way the victim of his
own casual emotions?
The woman who clings TO her
ideals is sure to meet at last with
ma who will admire her for
her vision and strength and sweet
ness. Beth n, and she will have
the greater joy of each other be-
cause of the loneliness and desper.
alton through which they have
gone.
Many women today are so avid
for the moment. SO afraid to wait
till tomorrow, and so terrified by
the Chronic loneliness" which
seems to he the lot of aspiring
souls, that they deliberately change
their natures and play down to q
group which they must despise-or
pity.
Only one thing can be more ter
rible than to find that you've de-
liberately thrown away your own
ideals, calmly lowered your stand
ards and put yourself on a level
beneath your true one. And that
one thing is to find, when it's too
late, that the best would have
come II you'd waited.
All Of us must live up to the
best in ourselves If we're ever to-
be truly happy. No disappoint-
ment can be more tragic than the
one that comes with self. No fail
ure can be more absolute than the
one which is produced by DELHI
crate killing Of the flowers in the
garden and cultivating the garish
weeds.

TO the heart of Angelo and Maria

like a nettle-rash across the coun-
try.
His first figure, 1.-The Bather,"

ABOUT WATER PRESSURES
BY Garrett p. Serviss-

; 900 pounds at the bottom. That
would also be the rate of pressure
on the bottom. This is found sim
ply by multiplying the pressure at
the bottom of a cube of water one
foot high, which is about 62h
pounds, by the number of feet In
three miles-the assumed depth of
the ocean, or height Of the vertical
retaining wall. That pressure
would be exerted in every direction
at the oceans bottom. not only
downward and sidewise, but also
upward. That is the popularity of
a liquid, that it transmits the pres
sure due to it's weight in all direc-
lions. so that its particles az
squeeze one another with the SAME
pressure.
Pressure due to its weight" I
have said, and therein lies the clue
to the increase of pressure with
depth. II water were compressible
to any considerable extent, its dem
sity, 1. e., its weight per unit vol
ume, would also be greatly increased
fact, water is so little compressible
that, for our present purpose, we
may neglect the slight increase of
density caused by the great pressure.
Thus every cubic foot Of water
weighs sixty-two and one-half
pounds, and when 1880 cubic feet
of water are superposed in a vertical
line, the weight and the pressure at
the bottom will be, as already stated,
900; 900 pounds. And owing to the
property of the water of transmit
ting any pressure to which II Is sub
jected equally In all directaions, this
pressure will be exerted against the
sides, close to the bottom, as well as
PRECAUTIONARY upon the bottom
itself.
It is this horizontally transmitted
pressuer that tends to push out the
bottom Of a dam, and the engineer
being able to calculate its amount
from his knowledge of the depth Of
the water thickens and strengthens
his dam proportionately at the bot
tom. The dam is made less thick at
a greater height because the pres
sure decreases with diminished
depth.
Now, going back to our imaginary
ocean inclOSed In tank with
vertical walls three miles high, let
us suppose the ocean to diminish in
breadth until, from being 5000
miles wide from east to west, II be-
comes only a long tank, say fifteen
feet across; what will be the effect
upon the pressure, per square foot,
at the bottom and sides. There will
be no effect.
The law tells us that the pressure
depends only on the depth and the
density of the water and not at all
on its quantity. or superficial ex-
tent. The total weight, of course,
would be enormously greater when
the ocean was 5000 miles instead
of only fifteen feet broad, but the
pressure per unit of area would re-
main unchanged. On a section of
fifteen square feet Of the vertical
wall the pressure would amount to
about 14.S00.000 pounds II the sec
ton were near the bottom. and
to about 6,226 pounds II the section
were near the top, and these figures
would be the same whether the
ocean were 1000 miles or three
yards across.

doubts about Ii being fair enough.
He studied the newcomer with much
concern, and then the cast-coveruI
cellar walls, and then the brown
tinted bust of Dante which he still
held in his hand. Then he retreated
to the living quarters above stairs
and consulted with Maria, mis- TO
tund and wren-lil<e wife, who
surreptitiously inspected Storrow
through crack in the door and per-
ceived that he was good to look upon
and carried no obvious earmarks Of
a refugee from justice.
So the matter was decided, then
and there. Storrow became one of
that little family in Sinner place
Swallowed by the notified walls Of
tenements, submerging himself in
that crowded corner of the East Side
where even to hear his native tongue
was to prove a novelty. There he
proceeded to make himself phantas-
mally at home entering into the
work allotted to him with a preoccu-
pied ferocity which more and more
tended to perplex the mild-eyed
Angelo.
There, down the ma, row canyon OF
a side street a-flutter with multi
colored bedding and washings, n
JOYOUS and noisy side street that
seemed almost Neopolitan in its color

and, likewise. evidently, a little
skeptical concerning some of the
sverments of physical science on
that subject.
There is indeed a great deal that
is apt to prove puzzling in the laws
of Intermediates, and probably
many persons find them stumbling
blocks. For instance, you are not
likely to meet at random with peo-
pie ready to believe. on your say
30, that a dam that would hold q
small pond would hold the Allan
tic Ocean just as easily, provided
that the ocean was no deeper than
the pond. You will generally find
that people suppose that the size
Of body of water, 1. e., its super
fetal extent, or rather it's volume,
governs the amount of pressure
that 1t exerts on it's sides. But
the fundamental hydrostatio law
says that the pressure depends
only on the depth and not on the
quantity of water. And this is
true no matter what the unit of
measurement may be, whether q
square inch or a square foot or q
square mile.
Consequently. dam that IN

enough to hold back a lake a hun
dred miles long, or one as long as
the ocean Is broad, provided al
ways that the depth IL the same.
OF course, It is also assumed that

wall that would stand against the
steady pressure of the Atlantic

And down that echoing conyon,
in the paling afternoons he saw the
shadows grow purple and the gold

deepen TO a wine-glow like the
wineglow that once hung warm
over his native mountains. And If
in his heart a great unhappiness
lay sealed and coffined, he strus-
gled none the less determinedly to
keep the lid tight down on that
casket where his lost hopes slept.
II was this which kept him so
doggedly and so desperately close
to his work. Angelo saw to II that
he was well supplied with model
