The fact that our earth in its voyage
through space has no fewer than four
teen distinct movements has been
pointed out by the French astronomer
and scientist, Camille Flammarion, &C.
cording to an article in the Paris
Temps. These are as follows:
Daily rotation, annual revolution,
ffuctuation or rocking due to the pre-
cession Of the equinoxes in period Of
26,765 years, monthly movement Of the
earth around the center of gravity
of the earth-moon couple; mutation
caused by the attraction of the moon
every eighteen and half years; varia-
ton, coming once every century, Of
the obliquity Of the ecliptic; variations
every century of the eccentricty Of the
terrestrial orbit; displacement Of the
line of apses every 21,000 years; dis
turbances caused by the constantly
changing attraction of the planets dis
placement of the center of gravity Of
the solar system around which the
earth travels annually, this center be-
ing determined by the variable posi-
tons Of the planets; perpetual varia-
ton of ATTITUDES; daily tides of the
continental soil; displacement Of the
whole Milky Way, of which our sun
IS one star, toward the constellation
of Capricorn, at the formidable speed
of 375 miles per second, or 100000
miles per hour"

DULL AND BRILLIANT YOUTHS
Bright Boy Does Not Always Fill Ex-
pectatio,s of Friends, While
Stupid Lad Surprises.

An ex-headmaster of % years ey-
perience has confessed that he was
anything but model boy at school.
He is not exceptional. Some boys
who have no lack of brains have not
the examination mind" and in some
the intelligence is too vivacious anC
original to be interested in routine
work. There are boys who are really
dull and will never be anything else,
but there are also boys VINO az mere
iy unconventional and boys WHO are
apparently dull only because they are
slow.
Human beings are like plants. 1t is
not always the tree which grows and
fruits the quickest that gives the best
crop in the end, says the London Daily
Mail. The brilliant boy does not al
ways fulfill the expectations of his
friends, while the boy who was sup
posed to be dull occasionally surprises
everybody In after life because his
mind was of the sort which takes
long time to mature.
No hard-and-fast rule can be laid
down. But, as DR.. Chalmers Mitchell
has pointed out, it Is a general rule
In nature that the longer the period
Of youth the greater Is the intelligence

ROCK THAT CAN BE SAWED
Oregon Product That Would Seen,
to Have Peculiar and Most
Valuable Properties.

Tufa, a volcanic ash rock, with prop
critics possessed by no other stone, is
being Quarried near the town of Mount
Angel, Ore, the only place in the
United States where it has been found
In sufficient quantities for commercial
use. The stone is first blasted out and
Is then hauled to a mill and handled
like lumber It Is cut into blocks or
boards" Of any desired dimensions.
Saws, planers and drills are used on
1t exactly as in a lumber or planning
mill. The finished product closely re.
sembles lumber, but is cut only in
short lengths. 1t is light gray color
with spots Of white running through
1t, and weighs only so pounds to the
cubic foot, about one-half the weight
Of common building stone
A peculiar characteristic of the Ore
gon tufa is that it can be Tailed.
Nails are driven into 1t easily as into
oak and other hardwoods, but are
harder to pull out. Tufa furniture,
nailed together, has been made ex-
perimentally. 1t is regularly used for
fence posts, holdings, stills and many
other purposes where mailing Is re
quired Recently it has been discov-
cred that when pulverized it makes a
soft, velvety powder which is an ex-
celent filler for rubber. 1t is pre-
dicted that 1t will supplant all other

PIG IRONS BASIC PRODUCTS
Wrc ut and 6 =ci--One Of Most
Valuable Minerals.

Iron is the most valuable metal In
the world to man, because it is Of
more use in more ways.
1t has been known to men from earli-
est times. Savages smelted it. 1t is
generally found compounded with other
substances such as carbon. These
other substances have to be burned
out in order to have pure iron.
Iron is sold in three forms-cast
iron, wrought iron, and steel. Cast
iron is brittle and hard, like the I'd
on the kitchen range. Wrought ION
can be hammered out fiat or made ;njo
wire Or welded. 1t is quite soft. " Il
is also capable of being hans 3CfHd
out fiat and welded Its peculiar prop
erty is that when tempered it be-
comes very hard-so hard that a sharp
edge can be put on it-so hard that it
will, when edged, cut wrought iron,
Iron which has been melted and
poured into molG in some form de-
sired for use, such as part of stove,
Is called cast iron. Iron which Is cast
roughly from the smelted ore In order
to be used to make cast iron, wrought
iron or steel Is called pig iron.
Pudding is the name Of the process
by which pig iron is made into wrought
iron. 1t is done in a furnace in which
the carbon is burned from the pig
iron.
Pig iron contains the most carbon,
then comes steel and then wrought
iron.
Steel can be made directly from pig
iron by what is known as the Bessemer
and open-hearth processes. Formerly
it was made from wrought iron.
