The Earth Keeps It from Flying For-
(to! Away.

We have read how the coffin of
Mahomet was poised without support in
the mosque of the faithful, from which
all unbelievers were so rigidly exsgluded;
no material support was nece ary to
sustain the remains of the prophet, the

body itself seemed ever on the point of -

following the departed spirit to the
Aperennial miracle Was
indeed necessary to sustain the revered
sarcophagus in space.

The infidel, no doubt, is somewhat
sceptical about this marvelous phenom-
enon, and now, as ever the truth is
stranger than fiction. Far over our
heads there is a vast globe, larger and
heavier than millions of sarcophagi; no
material support is rendered to that
globe, yet there it is sustained from day
to day, from year to year, from century
to century. ‘

What is it that prevents the moon
falling? That is the question which
now lies before us. It is assuredly the
case that the earth continually attracts
the moon. The efiect of the attraction
is not, however, shown in actually draw—
ing the moon closer to the earth, for
this, as we have seen, does not happen,
but the attraction of the earth keeps the
moon from going further away from the
earth than it would otherwise do.

Suppose, for instance, that the at
traction of the earth were suspended,
the moon would no longer follow its
orbit, but would start off in a straight
line in continuation of the direction in

which it was moving at the moment,

when the earth’s action was interrupted.

What Newton did was to show, from
the circumstances of the moon’s dis-
tance and movement, that it was at-
tracted by the earth with a force of the
same description as that by which the
same globe attracted the apple, the dif~
ference being that the intensity of the
force becomes weaker the greater the
distance of the attracted body from the
earth.

In fact, the attraction of the earth on

a ton of matter at the distance of the
moon would be withstood by an exertion
not greater than that which would sus-
tain‘iabout three-quarters of a pound at
the surface of the earth—Good Words.

‘ ‘3: Curious Marriage Statistics.
3‘ A German statistician has recently
published the results of his investiga-
tion of the relative ages of husbands
and wives in the various capi sis of Eu-
rope.

He ascertained that marriages are the
most frequent where the husband is two
or three years older than the wife.
Women under twenty years of age, how-
ever usually take unto themselves hus-
bands six or seven years older than
themselves. The cases in which the
man was a year" ,younger "than the
woman were almost as numerous as
those in which he was six or seven years
older. The first condition was true of
6.7 per cent. of all married couples and
the latter condition of ,6.4 per cent. The
cases where the husband was six or
seven years younger than the wife were
also just as numerous as those where he
was thirteen or fourteen years older.
Only two cases were discovered where
the husband was thirty - five years
the senior; one case where he
forty- seven years older. and one case
where he was older by forty -six
years One case Was discover ed where
the wife was thirty-four years older

 

than the husband Twelve and three- .

tenths per cent. of all Imen who
marry women under twenty years of
age, according to the statistician, are

between twenty-six and twenty-seven.

years old—Boston Courier. _

The Stone and the llletal Ages.

Man, during the “Stone Age” livedin
caves dressed in skins and made weapons
from flints with which .he fought the
animals existing at that time. _He was,
perhaps, a cannibal, yet he made fires,-
instruments of offense and defense,
adorned himself with rudely carved
beads to show his political or religious
views, and buried his dead in caves with
religious ceremonies.

During the “ Metal Age” tools were
made of a better character. Villages
were built on pilesdriven deep in the
lake bottoms, . and cloth was woven
and made into garments. Several kinds
of , animals were domesticated, and
numerous articles of ornament were
manufactured. Wheat, barley and cats
were cultivated. The baker’s art was
discovered. Glass was found, and some
fruits stored for winter use. And after
iron had been added to the list of metals
already known, civilization advanced
rapidly—Detroit Free Press.

J. A. McConville killed one of his

chickens for dinner, and on cleaning'it

was-surprised to find a quantity of gold'

nuggets in the crop and gizzard. Hav-

he began killing and examining them.
In each of them he found a pro rata of

it. In about two weeks the Sarsaparilla began
to have effect... The sores commenced to head
