Chairs and Their Makers

1t is probable that very early in
American cabinet making rocking
chairs were introduced. It IS not un-
reasonable to attribute their origin to
a date previous to the Revolution, but
after 1850. Not until the Nineteenth
century was well under way, however,
did that type become common as an
article of furniture. 1t is probable
also that Windsor chairs were the
first to be fitted with rockers. The
Windsor chair itself was invented in
England, and its comfort quickly made
its appeal. The old chair makers
knew how to adapt their furniture to
the human anatomy and the American
inventor Of the rocker added still more
comfort.

Longevity From Sap?

Longevity through the utilization Of
sap from trees as a food for human
beings is the theory Of an Oregon
scientist, who is investigating whether
there is any foundation for a myth
that the ancients who lived to a great
age drank the sap of trees. Man must
be satisfied with a life Of seventy or
eighty years, while a redwood tree In
California, which was a Seeding 525
years before Christ, goes on living at
$500 years Of age, he reasoned. If
this scientist can find and isolate the
long-life substance in the California
redwOOds, he believes he will have
something better than a gland cure
for restoring youth and prOlOnging
life, says Capper's Weekly.

Facing a Burglar

IF a burglar is at your bedside and
bids you throw up your hands, throw
them up. Keep them up. If you are
awakened by noise below or above or
in another part of your apartment
and, while you are investigating,
come face to face with your burglar,
stop where you are. Don't be fool
hardy. Obey him implicitly. 1t Is
cheaper. You can earn more money,
you can buy jewels to replace those
he takes: But not, my friend, If you
are dead.
But if you have the drop on him
and are sure of It, If you are sure
you won't miss-let him have 1t. II

but he is no sport. He is not giving
you a sporting chance-and will not

Easy to Foreteu
Change in Weather

It is not always easy to tell what
the weather is going to be, but a few
signs are very reliable. When 1t is
raining you will sometimes notice that
the sky starts to clear in the form
Of an arch. Close to the horizon you
can see the little half-cirCle which is
the beginning Of the arch that will
sweep across the sky until there are
no clouds left. Then you may be GER
tain it is not going to rain again for
some time.
Look at the clouds at almost any
time Of the day, and If these get small
er or remain about the same size, rain
is not likely. Should the clouds get
bigger, expect showers soon.
In fine weather the wind increases
up to midday and then gradually dies
down. If the wind does not get less
after noon, and still more if 1t blows
harder toward sunset, you may be al
most sure bad weather is coming.

Wrong or Right

There is an old judge Of the Su-
preme court in New York who re-
Gently in private conversation was
heard to vigorously defend one Of
his friends who had fallen by the
wayside. He was challenged for de-
Tending a man who had been proved
to be wrong.
"That was only one failure" said
the old judge. Consider the fine
things about him"
But" objected one of the critics,
II don't see how you can stand up
for this fellow even If he is a friend.
He certainly was wrong"
ANY man will stand up for you
when you are right" replied the old
Judge. 'But it takes a friend to
stand up for you when you are
wrong"

Chinese Religion

Chinese religion, like Chinese art
and literature, is quite indigenous, a
natural expression of the Chinese
philosophy of life. Indeed, the Chi
nese notion Of religion is very slight.
The thought of the entire population
is permeated by a definite ethical
code, but it is not fierce or persecu-
tory. Religions are many, but rea-
son is one" Chinese religion is more
tolerant, more reasonable and less
dogmatic than the religions of any
other people. 1t is hardly more than
an ethical code. In China there have
never been religious wars.-Chi-Fung
Liu, in Scribner's.

Birth of Rocking Choir

Rocking chairs are commonly re-
ferred to as an American institution
purely. They had their greatest devel-
Opment, of course, during the Nine
teenth century, when they passed
through the stage Of makeshift rock
ers cut fiat on top with the bottom In
the form Of an arc, to those which
constituted an integral part Of the
chair, and from these to those mon
strOsities of furniture called patent
rockers. That was the beginning Of
their decadence, says the Boston Tran
script. Rocking chairs are made now,
but they are simple in construction,
and the elaborate arrangements Of
springs and bases are known no more.

Explaining Law of Motion

The first law Of motion, one of the
cardinal discoveries, which contrbut-
ed to the fame of Sir Isaac Newton,
is that a body continues to move at
the same speed so long as no force
is applied 10 retard or accelerate it,
II was a surprise to his cOtemporaries
and continues to be to any one who
hears it for the first time. Experience
leads US to suppose that the natural
condition of a body is stationary; but
Newton asserted that neither rest nor
motion 10 more natural than the other
Bodies set in motion by human agency
always come to rest before long, be
cause friction and resistance Of the
air are always operating to retard
them; but the earth is surrounded by
empty space, so that there is no fric-
tiOn.

Continent Believed
to Lie Under Ocean

Does the Atlantic ocean roll over
lost continent? lie PiongeOn, who de-
ciphered the hierOglyphics among the
ruins of Yucatan, in Central America.
came upon inscriptions describing a
catastrophe which submerged the old
AtlanteAn continent, legends of which
have survived in literature from the
earliest times.
1t may be that this catastrophe
gave rise to the equally widespread
belief in the flood which destroyed tie
early inhabitants of our planet. Ger
tain it is that the American continent,
although called the New world, Is
geologically the oldest land on the
globe, and the monuments found in the
jungles of Yucatan were ancient when
the pyramids Of Egypt were built;
The catastrophe IS sdpp6sed to have
taken place about 5000 B. c., and at
that time there was a highly organized
civilization in Yucatan, which would
seem to be a remnant Of the lost con-
tinent. 1t is not a very large cOun-
try, yet, in spite Of the great difficult
ties of exploration, the ruins Of 172
cities have been discovered. Some
of these are so extensive that they
must have contained half a million in
habitants, and It Is possible that the
pyramids found in the jungle gave
the pattern at a much later date to
the pharaOhs Of Egypt.

Pigeons Fly Far

Up to the year 1913, 800 miles was
the record distance flown by any hOm-
ing pigeon, but in that year a flight
was organized between Rome and
Derby, and a bird belonging to C. II.
Hudson, a Derby fancier, arrived
safely at it's loft four weeks after be-
ing liberated in Rome. The distance
exceeds 1000 miles. Even this record
has been exceeded by two birds which
flew from Pensacola, Fla, to Fall
River, Mass, a distance of 1882
miles. The time taken was fifteen
and a half days.-LondOn Tit-Bits.
