The coefficient of friction Is thus reduced to the minimum and the bed does not pack when dry and when wet behaves like a fluid. Tie d-i)th of quicksand Is conditioned by th depth of the bardpan or other compact ma terial upon which the saud rests. In building operations on the lower end of Manhattan Island quicksands are encountered , more than 100 feet lu depth." Near Pueblo, Colo., in 1875, a train was drawn by a derailed loco motive Into a quicksand and was swal lowed up beyond discovery, although probed for to a depth of fifty feet. In certain smaller littoral quicksands, bodies w hich have been engulfed 'are In time brought to the surface at the edge of the shivering sands. This Is due to the structure of the containing bowl of rock which permits a sluggish circulatory movement of the plastic mass. ... , Had Enough of Law. ', . A pontininn who Is now general su perintendent of a railroad began ute by trying to practice law in a Missouri village. One of his first cases was be fore his father, who was a Justice of the peace. After a stormy wrangle be tween the young attorney and his ad versary the old gentleman decided the caEe against his son's client. The young man gave vent to some expressions of Indignation, gathered np his books and started to leave the room. Ills father pushed his specs on to his forehead and began mildly to lecture him, say. .- J'Young man, do you expect to make " your ilylnp practicing law?" - .

Green Bag , . . , , P Ral Anael of Death. j ' Most of us are familiar with the beautiful and artistic conception of French wherein a young sculptor who P'yta 0,8 malc cnlsel uPn " block , of Bton,e f!nd "toning from .the ' snowy depths of the marble the dream "face of hl9 sours ldea, ,8 gcn0y touch. ea by tne wi9tful eyed angel of death it was a minute, rodlike organism float ing amid motes of dust and known to scientists as-the "bacillus tuberculo sis." The writer does not want to be a shntterer of ideals, but the sooner such poetic notions of death are done away with and the mass of the people educated in a common sense way to the dangers of dust and bacteria the better It will be for humanity in gen eral.

If a plate or bar of mild steel lasts for a year In service It may be trusted to Inst for many years. The most Injurious thing Is continual bending bnekward and for ward, us in whot Is called the "pant ing" of a boiler end. As one author ity puts It steel has a somewhnt "tu multuous youth." but "In middle age It Is trustworthy and in old age be yond reproach." In regard to corro sIod there is difference of opinion, some holding that steel corrodes more readily than Iron. 16 - 17 - 13 ADMISSION 23c. -n Artijt' Trials.
