Can You Tell?
By r, J. and A. W. Bodmer
What Makes the Intervals Between the
Puifs OF 0 Locomotive When Starting

What Makes the Intervals Between the
Pufls Of . Locomotive When Starting
For every revolution Of its driving
wheel q locomotive gives four separate
puffs. In starting the wheels OF the
locomotive barely move and revoive so
slowly that each puff Is divided from
the next one by an appreciable IN
terval Of time. -.
Many Of us have lain awake at
night and listened to the sounds made
by a locomotive attached to q heavy
train, and perhaps we have wondered
what makes the "puf6ng" sounds we
hear. The first puff is followed, after
what seems q long interval. BY an,
other. There is a second long interval
between the second and third puffs, and
then perhaps follows a succession OF
count them, with another space Of
silence. and then the same lapsed
putting starts all over again. Finally
the locomotive gets down to regular
putting or breathing. gradually in
creases in speed, and the train 10 under
way: J.,
When the puffs come rapidly in
starting it is q sign that the wheels
are slipping around on the track with
out pulling. The puff Is made by the
rapid sending out Of steam, or exhaust.
from the smokestack. The number Of
puffs made by locomotive in a given
distance depends entirely upon the
size Of the drive wheel. The average
drive wheel Is twenty feet in circum.
ference and q locomotive wheel Of this
size going fifty miles an hour gives out
500 puffs a minute. When there are
more than eighteen puffs q second the
human ear is unable to distinguish them
separately and we jump to the con-
clusion that 1t has ceased to puff. The
rapidity of the puffs then depends upon
the speed with which the drive wheel Is
turning.

Enter Lucy

THE more Rand thought about it
L the more convinced he became of
the possibility that Judy might still
care for him. He didn't want to be.
lieve it, he wanted to believe that Judy
was as eager as he himself to be free,
but he couldn't be certain Of this.
Her attitude earlier that evening had
been unnatural. 1t was Judy's way to
assert herself. but tonight she had been
almost self effacing, totally lacking in
emotion Of any kind. Was it possible
that Judy had deliberately feigned in. Z.
difference lest he suspect the truth
Rand found himself suddenly curious
about his wife. Was 1t possible that
after all he didn't know her? Were
there unplumbed depths in her nature
that he knew nothing Of?
He shook himself imPatiently and
channels. He wanted to think Of the
present, and Carlotta. He wanted to
recapture, If he could. the exultation
that he had felt before he had stumbled
In on Carl and Marcia, but in spite OF
himself, he could think only Of the
future, and he finally faced the con-
viction that unless he could assure him =
self of the fact that Judy no longer
cared for him, he could not find hap
piness anywhere.
He thought Of Carlotta and the
thought was agony. She stirred him to
the depths of his heart, but his duty
lay with Judy. Strange that he should
see that SO plainly now.
A sudden imperious ring Of the bell
brought Rand to his feet. 1t was after
he wondered duly who could be coming
here at this hour. A moment later
Lucy Randolph burst into the room.
"Where is Carl?"
"He went out a short time ago. l
think he'll be back before long" Rand
tone was soothing, but it had no effect
on Lucy in her present state Of nerves.
II don't believe you, you're trying
to hide things from me. He's with that
woman, and your in league with him
to try to throw dust in my eyes,"
II assure you. Mrs. Randolph--''
But Lucy quickly interrupted.
You men are all alike, and you
think it wise policy to stick together
I suppose you'll tell me next that you
didn't know there was woman but il
won't do any good because know ali
about it."
She began to cry weakly.
II can't bear It, I tell you. What's
going to become Of Inc IL Carl leaves
me, and what have I ever done TO de-
serve it? we always been faithful tc
him, I've never given so much as a
look to another man, and this is my
reward"
Tears streamed down her face, which
robbed Of its little artitces. looked al :
most old. In spite Of the feeling OF
distaste that Rand had always felt to
ward her. pity stirred in his heart, and
yet he was powerless to comfort her
