Thrown Upon a Red hot Stovs, Thoy Will Novor Touoh It. It is impossible to throw a few drops of water on a redhot stove. The wa ter cat) never touch the stove at all. Whit Is seen la a few drops rolling rapidly over the surface, gradually getting smaller until they disappear. If tbe drops are on a perfectly level place oue can see under them to the other side of the room, thus proving that they are not In contact with the stove itself. What actually happens is that the bottom of tbe drop changes at once to steam or vapor on coming close to the hot surface, and this vapor Is supplied by the drop as it gradually goes away. So the drop rests on a cushion of va por until It Is entirely dissipated. This state of water is known as the spheroi dal state and is of interest simply on account of its peculiarity and seeming ly paradoxical behavior. The reason why the drop is not im mediately evaporated or changed to steam is also very interesting. The water vapor that intervenes between Its under surface and the redhot stove Is a very bad conductor of heat, and consequently the full Intensity of the heat cannot get to the water itself, only the amount transmitted through the vapor being available for this pur pose.

The Health of the Home It Takes Strong Iron Bars to Win the Depositors' Confidence. Rural customers attach great Im portance to the bank's outward ap pearance. A thrifty tradesman having opened a deposit uccouut with a bank distant some thirty miles from his home, the cashier bad tbe curiosity to ask why he traveled so far when tbero was a branch of the same bank almost at his door. The depositor smiled knowingly and replied, "I lodged op posite here all the time while this bank was being built, so I know It's safe." Balance sheets to tbe rustic are a meaningless and arbitrary ar rangement of figures. Iron bars be understands. In a city in tbe north of England there is a bank widely known for the artistic merit of Its doors. Designed by an eminent sculptor, they are ex ecuted in relief lu copper or bronte and appear to represent tableaux from "Aesop'i Fables" and Greek history. About a week after they were unveil ed an old man who had been a de positor for many years withdrew his balance and took It to a rival bank al most opposite. Questioned as to bla reason for changing, he replied: "1 don't hold wl' them doora of theirs. Punched tin ain't businesslike, and It ain't safe." London Saturday Review A Perfect Disguise.
