The body of the sweater and crown of the cap are of the same wide wala stitch.

MYSTERIES OF SCIENCE AND NATURE Force of Gravitation Controls Cannon Balls, Baseballs, Moons, Planets, Suns and Stars Without Visible Means of Connection.

By GARRETT P. SERVISS. THE mystery of mysteries in science is the attraction of gravitation that very force of nature that is most familiar to us all! It seems strange that the most familiar thing in the world should be, at the same time, the most inexplicable but it is so. In order to see clearly wherein the mystery consists, let us first consider what gravitation appears to be. It is gravitation that gives the property of weight to all bodies. If there were no gravitation, we could float like thistledowns, and infinitely beter than thlsUedowns; for they, too are finally brought down by gravitation. It Is gravitation that brings a cannon ball eventually to the earth, no matter how swiftly it may be projected. The faster it starts the farther It will go, but during every second of Its flight it drops the same distance vertically toward the earth, whether the speed imparted to it by the powder is 500 or 3 000 feet per second. Gravitation acts on a moving body exaoUy as well as on one at rest. It is gravitation that curbs the motion of the moon and keeps it in an
orbit of which the earth is the active focus. Gravitation Governs the Earth's Motion Around Sun. So, too, it is gravitation that governs the earth in its motion around the sun, preventing it from flying away in to boundless space. Astronomy shows that gravitation acts between all the planets and all the stars and controls their movements with respect to one another. Now this mysterious force appears to be an attraction, as if there were elastic cords connecting all the bodies in space and tending to draw them together. But space as far as our senses can detect, is empty. There are no elastic cords and no physical connections whatever between astronomical bodies, or between a flying stone, or cannon ball, and the earth. How, then, can there be an attraction? In order that a body may be attracted or drawn, there must be something to draw it. Gravitation does the trick, but It completely hides from us the mechanism through which it acts. We can discover no mechanism at all. When an unfortunate aeroplanist drops from his machine at a height of a thousand feet, he begins at once to fall toward the earth as if it were
pulling him; but how can it pull if it has nothing to pull with? You may think at first sight that it is the air which acts as an intermediary; but that is not so, because the earth and the moon "pull" upon one another with a force equal to the strength of a steel cable five hundred miles in diameter; but there is no air, and no other tangible thing in the open space, 240,000 miles across, that gaps between the moon and the earth. Then gravitation exerts the same force at every instant. No matter how fast the falling aeronaut may be descending at any moment, gravitation will keep on adding speed as if it had just started. Disregarding the slight retardation produced by the pressure of the air, he will fall 16 feet in the first second, 48 feet In the second second, eighty feet in the third second gaining 32 feet in his velocity during every second after the first. Aviator Falls 10,000 Feet in About Twenty-five Seconds. From a height of 1,000 feet he will
; come down m about o seconds, and j will strike the ground with a velocity jot" about 256 feet 'per second. From ! a height of 10,000 feet he would fall
in about 25 seconds, and would strike with a velocity of 400 feet per second. The same kind of calculation can
be applied to the gravitation between j the earth- and the moon. If the moon ! were not in motion across the direcI tion of the earth's "pull" it would fall
to the earth in about 116 hours. Mow. to return to the mystery, how is this force exerted? Is it really a pull as it seems to be? The answer to which science is tending is that instead of being a pull, gravitation is a pnsh; in other words, that the falling aeronaut is pushed toward the ground and the moon is pushed toward the earth. On the face of it one might think that nothing was gained by this theo
ry, because it seems as impossible

She got down en h-r knee and looked under the ehnTionkr under the rug--under the bed- but no cut." tn;ttons were visible. Then ihe looked hurriedly through the top ihiifionier drawer. "Oh, I'd never have put then in there," impatiently. I always lay Vm riht here. You've uatheri them up with some of your things:.

Haven't you a dresser of your own? Why ou earth must you litter up my chiftionier?" "I'll try not to I didn't know I often left things !ere." "Well, where are my cuff buttons that's what I want to know now? I've got to get down to the office some time today."
"Oh, they are here some place," anxiously. "I'll be sure to find them when I straighten up the room. Can't you wear another pair this morning?" Something Always Missing. "No, we've got to find those and find them now. I broke the only other pair I had last week." And he strode around angrily, looking under the edges of the rug as he kicked it up, and swearing underneath his breath. "This is the most infernal place to lose things," he fumed. "Almost every morning it's my collar-button or my scraf pin, or something. I never used to lose things when I was alone. It's having your confounded trumpery all mixed up with mine, no wonder "Wait wait, dear I'll look again!" And again she went down on her knees, again looked under the chiffionier and bed. She rose, flushed and flurried. "Oh, maybe you didn't take them out of your shirt they may be right there!" She rushed into the bathroom to the laundry basket. The shirt he had thrown in last night lay on top. But no there were ho buttons in the cuffs. The button holes gaped at her emptily. "Of course, not," when she came back without them. "You don't think I'm as absent-minded as that do you?" "Listen, dear," eagerly. "Won't you wear a pair of mine just today? I'm sure I can find yours afterwards." "What are they some fancy set affairs?"
j "No: I have one pair of perfectly ! plain gold ones. Wait: I'll get them." j "There: won't those do for today?" I He looked at them critically, j The Breakfast Ordsal.
"I suppose they'll have to do." And I'll look for yours after you're gone. Now come, dear, as soon as you can; breakfast is ready." She hurried into the dining room to see if everything was right. Fruit, oatmeal, toast and two soft-boiled eggs was Warren's breakfast all the year round. But the eggs had to be just so three-minute eggs he called them and they must not be boiled a second more nor less. Helen poured his coffe while he ate an orange and glanced over the morning paper.

that a push should be exerted without a tangible connection as a pull. But the clue is found in the suposed properties of that indivisible, intangible, all-pervading medium called the ether. This, to be sure, is explaining one mystery by another, for we knownothing about the ether except that it conveys the waves of light and electricity, but, at any rate, it affords a conceivable explanation of gravitation. I have no space to go into this explanation, which has been developed by Dr. Charles F. Brush, but an idea of its nature may be formed from the statement that it regards the ether as being filled with a peculiar form of waves, and that material bodies may intercept these waves in such a way as to be pushed toward one another on account of the diminished effect of the ether waves in the
space between the bodies.
