GLOBES IN NATURE f Why Raindrops and the Planets and Suns Are Round. -THE FORCES OF ATTRACTION. . . r.rowd Gathers In a Circle Around bn Object of InUreit, 8o Molecular nd Gravitational Impulses In Mat. .. Act Toward a Center. Falling rain forms Into spherical drops for tlio snmo reason that the earth has become a globe-uanicly. because that is the shape In which the Internal forces of attraction nttaln a balance. In the case of n very largo and massive body llko the earth It Is the attraction of gravitation that con trol the form, but in that of a small body like a raindrop It Is the molecular attraction of the infinitesimal particles. Tlio intensity of moleculnr attraction, which is the force that holds the com ponents of bodies together, is far great er than that of the attraction of gravi tation, but it is exercised over n com paratively lnslgnlUcnnt distance. In each case however, tho resultant of nil the attractions between tho Individual iiartlclcs is a forco directed toward the center of moss. ( Dut by the principlo of inertia time Is always required for any forco or com bination of forces to set matter In mo tion. Tbo larger tho volume of matter concerned tho longer will bo tho tlmo needed for tho Internal forces to group all tho particles symmetrically around their common center of mass. It Is upon this principlo that tho old fashioned shot towers nro operated. Molten lead is dropped from o great -elevation after passing through a sievo to facilitate its separation into small masses, and during their downward it,fht tbeso masses nro rounded into little spheres by tho mutual attraction of their molecules, which group them selves around a common renter. UMth vnnr lnri?rt linflfftn nnl hrntrnn nn lnto small portions the grnvltntlonnl forco plays tho principal part In shap ing them, becntiso gravitation is effec tive nt great distances and throughout vast masses, while cohesion, or molecu lar attraction, Is extremely limited with regard to tho spneo over which It acts. Each moloculo attracts n little group ft other molecules close around It, and toeso In turn attract their Immediate neighbors. Within tho space occupied by a ralndmp tho molecular attraction Is tho mnster forco and quickly shapes the mass Into a sphere. And Just as a spoonful of water thrown from n high tower will descend In tho form of one or uioro round drop owing to tho .resultant pull of nil Its molecules toward n common center so the entire ocean If It were dung out Into open space would becotno a gigan tic hall of water rounded Into that shapo by tho gravitational attraction ' feting throughout Its wholo mass. it is y no accident that all the planets are spherical. They havo tnken that shupo at inevitably as a loose stono rolls down a steep hllL Their forms uro not perfect spheres, becauso they havo been subjected to outside disturbing forces, such as tho centrifugal effects of their rotation on tbclr axes and the deformations pro duced by tie attraction of other planets and of th sun. Even the heads of comets ore spheroidal, although they are bcllcrcd to consist of swarms of tunall bodies llko meteors. This tendency of masses, whoie com ponent parts or particles are free to move miong one another, to assume a globular outline Is curiously Illustrated even if crowds or swarms of sentient beings. Thus a swarm of bees when it patters closo becomes spherical or spberildnl, since that form Is best suited to Inclose the greatest number of Individuals. A luraan crowd certainly would take a spherical form If its members wero able to choose their positions aa freely io tp and down as In horlrontal space. Being confined to one level, they ar range themselves In a circle, wblcb is tho section of a sphere. Garrett P. Berrlsa in New Vork Journal. Uncle Frank Nichols Oregon Pioneer Polltteal Chances.

One of the oldest men In tills part Of Uie Btate. ho la n frnnnont visitor to Dond and Is well known In town. Tho Oregonlan last wcelc con talned tho following article about Mr. Nichols, .which will bo of Interest to his friends and acquaintances In this section. "Undo" Frank Nichols. You folks 'who dr'o every import ant happening from tho 18 year old Spanish war, or even you who think that tho Civil Wnr ".-s the dividing l'.no In a mere or less eventful exist ence, how would you llko to be in position to rovort to tho Hist Mexi can war, back In 4C, or tho gold rush to California in '49 ns tho mile stones of your young lives? Such Is tho unique distinction of Benjamin Franklin Nichols, tho pat riarch of tho Tumalo flats In Central Oregon, a mnn whj bears tho weight of hla 91 summers ns lightly ns tho boys now starting for tho Mexican border entry their knapsneks and rifles. "Unclo Frank,' ns he Is known throughout tho length and bror.dth of (ho stato, Is hovo to n'tend the pi oneers' rounlon which opens tomor row. Ho oxpects to meet many latter day frionds but not many old frieads. Most of his old friends aro sone goco forevor. Ho is ono of tho last of his day and generation. Trip to Oregon Mndo In 181 1. . . Tho Nichols family wero nmonr tho early Bottlers of Missouri. Thoy moved thei'o from Tocnoiseo ns a pro test against slavery. When slnvory lavt-dod Missouri they catno to Ore gon, crosoing tho plains In 1844. Tho father of "Unclo Frank" was cngagod soon after his nnlvr.l, to bull a g.i (mill for Dr. Marcus Whitman, tho missionary, nsar Walla Walla. Subsequently tho party had a peril ous trip down tho Columbia In an Improvlsod canoo. Thoy landed near uregon uuy into in June, iH4o. mo young Nichols had losrncd tho car-1 nnntnr trndnnuch ns If wnu In tlirvnn days from his father, nnd got a Job building a houso for "Father ' John McLoughlln at Oregon City. Ho hewed and, plahod tho boards by hand and fitted them In position. Tho next yoar, though, tho family settled near Rlckrcal, Polk county, and young Nichols, in his temporary r.bsenco from homo, was elected chorlff of tho county. Ho was not quite 21 years old then. Dut ho be came sheriff In fact ns Veil ns In name. While he held this offlco, one Adam E. Wimple wna nrrestod by h'm and convicted on n cltnrgo of murdering his wife and concealing the body under tho floor of his house. Ecch county performed Its own hang ings in Uioso dayo and tlio young Bhcrlff disposed of this particular ninu himself. Ho wanted to do tho Job right, ho says. Part Taken In Gold Rush. When gold was discovered hi Cal ifornia In 1848 ho wn3 cno of tho first to Join tho rush from Oregon. Ho had crossed tho" continent with J. W. Marshall, tho dlscovoror. Ho was In tho gold fields for a llttlo moro than n year and returned to Oregon ou a sailing vessel. Ho was 35 days r.t sea coming from Srn Frnnclsco to tho mouth of tho Columbia. Within a year after he returned ho married a daughter of General Gil Hani'. He on gaged for a tlmo In tho flour mill business with Henry Owens, his brother-in-law, and J. W. Nesmlth, r.ftorvards United States Sanr.tor. Later ho and Mr. Owens wero In tho drug business at Dallas. In 1853 ho was Initiated ns n Ma son nt Salem, and prohebly Is tho oldest Mason In Oregon who Joined the order in this state. Lator ho took tho second and third degrees of Masonry In Jennings Lodge at Sal em. About 40 years r.go ho was then 50 years of age ho wont to Prlno vlllo nnd opened r. drug store. Prlue villo then was a part of Wasco coun ty. Ho was elected to the Loglslat uro In 1882 and Introduced a bill ci eating Crook county from a part of Wnsco. Mr. Nlchola Is surpilslngly woll ln formad on current history rind dis plays a startling knowlcdgo of facts nnd ovontu dating back for 70 or 75 years. Hla nrst rrosidcntmi voto af ter Oregon was admitted to tho Un ion was caBt for Stephen A, Douglas In 18G0. Ho Is n thorough admirer of Theodore Itoosovolt and wanted him to got tho IXopubllcan nomina tion for Prealdcnt this. year. Now ho ' going to support Hughes.

Tuxedo's Grip by Walt Mason Tuxedo is the gripping smoke, a boon to every buyer; you take your pipe of English oak, of meerschaum, clay or briar, and fill it with the fragrant weed, the choicest man can gather; and then you have a smoke, indeed; and are you glad? Well, rather. Tuxedo has no kick or bite, suggests no "morning after;" its i i Jl:t.i A mission IS IO OWlK ucuhv, uuu fill your heart with laughter. ( It caught the sunshine of the south, when it was green and growing, and brings that sun shine to your mouth, when out the smoke you're blowing. "Tuxedo's in a class alone," its smokers are declaring; "it has a fragrance all its own, that baffles !1 mr.nn'nw" And thllB it LMA " -- w - grips the men who smoke, and holds their true affec tion; their trusty briar pipes they stoke, and never know dejection.
