"The device takes a portion Of the
steam which ordinarily goes TO waste
through the smokestack and uses Il
to heat the water which goes into
the boiler. In other words, 1t makes
new steam with old

water into steam. Instead of using
coal to produce this heat the engine

wasted is diverted 10 the chamber

FOR hundred years or more the
United States government has

United States government has
been puzzling over a mystery
that concerns something you cannot
see, touch, smell, taste or hear. Other
governments have studied it even lon
ger, and many famous men of science
have given their lives to it. A ship
that the Carnegie Institution devotes
to the work has already travelled more
than 800, miles. But the mystery
is not much nearer being solved than
it was two centuries ago. 1t may
never be solved.
The something concealed in that
mystery-or at least the influence of
it-exists everywhere. But it is the
same in no two places, and it is al
ways undergoing changes by the day,
by the month, by the year and by
cycles of centuries. No one knows
where it comes from or how it hap
pens or what it consists of; yet you
can measure it and keep account of it
as easily as you can the temperature
of water.
1t is not an impractical matter, in
teresting only to science. If you are
travelling at sea, your life may depend
upon it. 1t may have much to do
with defining rights in real estate, or
with fixing the boundary of the coun-
ty or the state in which you live, or
with the directions of the streets and
roads along which you walk. Intact,
our government, though not ignoring
the purely scientific aspects of the
mystery, does not take much interest
in. them. 1t seeks only to enable peo-
pie to use the something to the
greatest advantage in the practical af-
fairs of life. For that purpose it en-
ploys a force of experts to keep
diary, so to speak, of the doings of the
something.
In carrying on their work the ex-
perts have visited virtually every part
of the United States; and they have
one big observatory and several
smaller ones in which delicate instru-
ments, housed in buildings that are al
most waterproof as we'll as heat proof
and cold proof, make minute records
throughout the day and night.
The mysterious something is ter
restrial magnetism, which controls
the compass.
Helmholtz and Maxwell say that
with the exception of gravity terres-
trial magnetism is the most puzzling
of all natural forces. You agreed
with them no doubt when you first
saw toy horseshoe magnet pick up
pins and tacks as if by magic; if you
ask the greatest men of science how
the magnet does those things, they
can say only, Because it is mag
netized." If you ask them what is
magnetism, or why it gives such pecu-
liar power to magnet, they can say
only that they do not know.
All that the men of science know,
or that anyone else knows, is how
magnetism works through the mag
net, and they do not know much
about that. They know that it has
what is called polarity" that is, it
causes properly arranged magnet or
a position that one end points in a
general way toward the north and
the other toward the south. In that
fact lies the chief value of terrestrial
