A SIMPLE EXPERIMENT.
Illustrating the Pact That a Ship May
Sail Paster Than tne wina.
Everv vachtsman knows that a
ship can sail faster than the wind;
that is to say, it tne wina is mow
ing ten knots an hour, a ship may
be making twelve or fifteen knots
an hour. Now, it is obvious that if
the ship is sailing straight before
the wind it cannot at the utmost
travel faster than the wind itself is
blowing; as a matter of fact, it will
travel much more slowly. If, on
the other hand, the ship is sailing
at ati angle with the wind, it seems
at first 'sight that the wind must
act witn less effect than before,
and the ship in consequence sail
more slowly still. But, as a mat
ter of fact, the ship will not only
sail more quickly than before, but
more quickly than the wind itself
is blowing. Tins is a paradox
which few, even of those who arc
well acquainted by experience
with the fact, have found them
selves able to explain. Let us
consider the difficulty in the light
of the following experiment: Place
a ball at one side of a billiard
table, and with the long cue
held Ieugthwise, from end to end
of the table, push the ball
across the cloth. The cue here
represents the wind, and the ball
the ship sailing directly before it;
only, as there is here no waste of
energy, which in the case of the
wind and ship is very great, the
ball of course travels at the same
rate as the cue evidently it can
not possibly travel faster. Now,
suppose a groove to be cut diag
onally across the table, from one
corner pocket to the other, in
which the ball may roll. If the
ball be now nlaced at one end of
the groove and the cue held hori
zontally and moved forward as be
fore, the ball will travel along tiie
groove (and aloiig the cue) in the
same time as the cue takes to move
across the table. This is the case
of the ship sailing at right angles
wiili tiie direction of the wind.
The groove is considerably longer
than the width of the table more
than double as long, m fart. The
hall therefore travels much faster
than the cue which impels it, since
it covers mor? than double the dis
tance in the same time. It i in
precisely tit-; same manner tii i- :i
tacking ship is enabled lo sail fa-t
er than the wind.

THE DRUMMER'S BEST GIRL.
He hurried up to the office as
soon as he entered the hotel, and,
without waiting to register his
name, inquired eagerly:
"Any letter for meV"
The clerk fumbled over a bun
dle with the negligent air that
comes of practice, then flipped one
a very small one on the coun
ter. The traveling man took it with
a very curious smile that twisted
his pleasant looking face into a
mask of expectancy.
He smiled more as he read it.
Then, oblivious of other travelers
who jostled him, he laid it tender
ly against his lips and actually
kissed it.
A loud guffaw startled him.
"Now, look here, old fellow,"
said a loud voice, "that won't do,
you know. Too spooney for any
thing. Uonfcss, now, that votir
wife didn't write that letter.'
"No, she didn't," said the drum
mer, with an amazed look, as if he
would like to change the subject.
"That letter is from my best girl."
The admission was so unex
pected that the trio of friends who
had caught him said no more until
after they had eaten a good dinner
and were seated together in a
chum's room. Then they began
to badger him.
"It's no use you've got to read
it to us. "Dick," said one of them,
"we want to know all about voar
best girl."
"So you shall," said Dick, with
great coolness I will give you
the letter and you can read it
yourselves. ThereVit is," and he
laid it open upon the table.
"I guess not," said the one who
had been loudest intlemanding it.
"We like to chafTa little, but I
hope wo are gontlemen. The
young lady would hardly care lo
luvo ner letter refut-WHins-crowM,
and he looked reproachfully at luc
friend.
"But I insist upon it," was the
answer. "There is nothing in it to
be ashamed except the spelling;
that is a little stiak', I'll admit, but
she won't care in the least. Read
it, Hardy, and judge for yourself."
Thus urged, Hardy took up the
letter, shamefacedly enough, and
read it. There were only a few
words. First he laughed, then
swallowed suspiciously, and as he
finished, threw it on the table
again and rubbed the back of his
lund across his eyes, as if troubled
with dimness of vision.
"Pshaw!" he said; "if I had a
love letter like that " and then
he was silent.
''Fair play!" cried one of the
others with an uneasy laugh.
"I'll read it to you, boys, said
their friend, seeing that they made
no move to take it, "and I think
you'll agree with me that it it a
model love letter."
And this is what he read:
Mi Owen deer PaPa: I sa mi
PRairs every nite and Wen I kis
yure Pictshurel ASK god to bless
you gOOd biPaPa yure best gurl
Dolly.
For a moment or two the com
pany remaineu suenr, wutie tne
little letter passed from hand to
hand, and you would have said
that each and everyone had hay
fever, by the snuffling that was
heard. Then Hardy jumped to
his feet:
"Three cheers for Dolly aud
three cheers for Dick's best girl!"
They were given with a will.

Almanac, at your druggist's.
There is a small tree growing
in a gulch near Tuscarora, Nevada,
the foliage of which at certain sea
sons is said to be so luminous that
it can be distinguished a mile away
on a dark night. In its immediate
season it emits sufficient light to
enable a person to read the finest
print. Its luminosity is said to be
due to parasites.
The blood cleansing qualities of
Ayer's garsaparilla render it inval
uable in skin disorders.
