de vices of the INSURANCE ational Gasoline Stove the safety features of modern gasoline stoves Like the extended guarded arm of a semaphore wherever you see an Insurance burner there you see protection againstaccidents It means Safe Go Ahead The user his family and property are protected And they cost no more than any other good gasoline stove that is made of equally high grade material by skilled workmen WHY Why for the sake of a dollar or so should one buy a cheap poorly con structed gasoline stove Why when at INSURANCE is a guarantee against accidents Catching the Speakers Eye The practice of catching tho speak ers eye dates back to the session of 1640 when a heated dispute arose be tween members of the house several of whom claimed precedence of speech It was then decided that whoever first caught the speakers eye should have the right to address the house This rule worked smoothly until 1GS3 when Sir John Trevor was elected to the chair The new speaker was afflicted with an abominable squint consequent ly two members would often catch his eye simultaneously and decline to give way to one another To obviate this a further rule was framed to the effect that the speaker should call by name upon the member privileged to address the house So every holder of the of fice has to possess a good memory for names as well as keen eyesight Lon don Chronicle Program of Miss

-iii Tho HEAT AND COLD Range Between Liquid Helium and tho Arc Light Have you never wondered on some terribly cold winter day when the falling temperature had long since passed the zero mark if it could pos sibly be any colder anywhere and then when summer comes and the mercury is apparently never going to stop climbing you cannot imagine how any thing could be hotter or more uncom fortable Fortunately we live in a world where the temperature seldom exceeds the limits of say 00 degrees below zero Fahrenheit and 110 above This seems a tremendous range of tempera ture but it is only trivial compared with that found on every side in na ture or in the laboratory Why this 1G0 degrees is less than the range through which a dish of cold water is heated when you place it on tho stove to boil A moments thought of some of these higher and lower temperatures is well worth while Liquid air at 312 de grees below zero is cold but liquid hydrogen at 421 is still colder while liquid helium at 43i below zero is the coldest thing we know of Going the other way lead melts at G20 degrees above zero Fahrenheit while gold remains solid up to a bright red heat or 194G degrees A good furnace fire may get several hundred degrees hot ter than this Platinum one of the most refractory of metals melts only when intensely white hot at a tem perature of 3230 but even this is 100 degrees or so less than the tempera ture of the flame on your gas stove The hotter a body is the more light it gives so the tungsten lamp filament which runs at about 4500 degrees gives a brighter and whiter light than the carbon filament at 3500 The elec tric arc gives still more light for a given amount of current consumed and generates a temperature not far from 7200 degrees Fahrenheit This is the highest temperature we can pro duce artificially No metal known can stand this terrible heat and even most refractory substances such as carbon are volatilized by it But while the arc is indeed hot it is by no means the highest temperature to be found in nature There are the best of reasons for believing that the temperature of the sun is some 12000 degrees or more and it is probable that some of the stars are still hotter This great heat explains the almost unbelievable fact found by Langley that sunlight is 5000 times brighter than the dazzling stream of molten metal from a Bessemer converter New York Tribune They Both Knew When the war ended Thomas B Heed went to California with a vague plan of settling in that new country He used to tell with intense delight of his examination for admission to the bar of California A young southerner came before the judge for examination at the same time The judge asked the southerner if the legal tender acts were constitutional and the young man answered without a moments hes itation No Then the judge turned to Reed and asked him the same ques tion Mr Reed with equal promptness answered Yes Very well said the judge you are both admitted Two men who can answer that question without hesita tion ought to be admitted to any bar Henry Cabot Lodge in Century Very Simple A rather simple looking lad halted before a blacksmiths shop on his way home from school and eyed the doings of the proprietor with much interest The brawny smith dissatisfied with the boys curiosity held a piece of red hot iron suddenly under the young sters nose hoping to make him beat a hasty retreat If youll give me half a dollar Ill lick it said the lad The smith took from his pocket half a dollar and held it out The simple looking youngster took the coin licked it dropped it in his pocket and slowly walked away whis tling Making Life Worth LivinV The other day I beheld a woman whose husband earns something less than S200 a month purchasing her
