Country's Motive Energy.
Tho. gauge of a nation's industrlnl
might is the amount of motive energy
which It enn cnnmmnil or the mani
fold fields of production and the es
sentlul contributory activities. We
have maintained our supremacy In
manufactured output very largely be
cause of the vnst amount of power
which we could call Into service. Rob
ert G. Skerrett wrote in the Scientific
American. Modern nations expend
fur more energy tlinn the combined
muscular ability of their population
nnd beasts of burden. The margin is
covered by the employment of te
chunlcal energy In the form of power.
To accomplish the work done annually
in the United Stnles. would require
the labor of 3.000.UO.0H0 imrd-norking
slaves. The use of power gives to
each man. woman nnd child in this
country the service equivalent of thir
ty servant's.

RESEMBLES THE HUMAN HAND
Skin of Bat's Wing Stretches From
the Finger Tips to Ends of
. Toe and Nails.
The wing of a but Is a most wonder
ful instance of adaptation to a special
end, for it is nothing hut a greatly
modilied forcllnih or hand.
If you spread out your hnnd nnd Im
agine the four fingers grown enormous
ly long, while the thumb remains short
nnd stumpy nnd that the skin between
the fingers lias also been stretched mi
til It extends from tip to tip of the
fingers and on nbuig tbe side of the
body to Join the bind foot, you will
hnve a good idea of the structure of a
bat's wing: It Is bimply a much exag
gerated hand.
The elongated bones serve, like the
ribs of an umbrella, to keep the skin
stretched n:id tnut when the owner
Is in flight.
When the but alights it double up
Its "bands," tiie skin falls in wrinkly
folds and using Its ll.uiuh Juiius as
forefeet it Is utile to run about almost
as quickly as u mouse.
The skin of the wing not only Joins
the hind limbs but extends from them
to the tall, thus milking the rudder
with which the bat can steer when Hy
ing, and, when the tall Is brought up
benenth the body, forms n bag or re
rcptable which Is of use to Its owner.
