LIGHT IS ENERGY.
If the Ray# Are Not Absorbed Th<
Will Travel on Forever.
If one could got an inclosed roo
with perfectly mirroring walls ai
light an electric bulb in it for a se
ond and then suddenly annilrla
the bulb the light would go on r
fleeting back and forth forever. S
if one could look into this room
Tear later he would see the light<
bulb, which no longer existed, mi

Enthusiasm.
One of the best ways to attrac
and interest other people is by go
ing about one's own business a
though it were the most wonderfu
and fascinating thing in the worlc
People soon begin to look on wis!
fully, begin to wonder what all thi
activity and triumphant joyousnee
mean and are presently drawn t
it as bees are drawn by a bloomin
clover field. ? David Grayson %

The Arabs of Syria.
Among the Arabs of Syria a m?
changes his name after the birth <
his eldest son, assuming the nan
which has been bestowed upon tl
heir, with the prefix Abu, meanii
"father of." Thus, if the 6on
called Fudle Allah, "God's bounty
the father will henceforth be kno^
as Abu Fudle Allah, "father <
God's bounty." In like manner tl
mother would become known i
Em Fudle Allah, "mother of God
bounty." This custom is not mer
ly one of common speech, but e
tends to all occasions and even 1
legal documents. Still more Strang
ly, even when a man though ma
ried has no son the courtesy of 01
ental society demands that 1
should be addressed as Abu Sali
or Abou Mahmoud, after an imag
nary son whom politeness confe
upon him.
? Peculiarities of Bats.
The bat ranks among animali
not birds. It is a mammal. A del
cate membrane stretches from lim
to limb on both sides of the bod
and incloses the greatly elongate
digits. This membrane extends i
some cases beyond the hinder limt
ao as to include the tail.* Its whol
structure is perfectly adapted t
sustained flight and unsuited fc
progression on the ground. Bal
nare small eyes, but their other o:
gans of sense are so highly deve
oped that even when blind they ca
fly in perfect safety, avoiding ot
stacles with seeming ease.
Art and Appetite.
"Your singing tonight was di
vine I" exclaimed an enthusiastic ad
mirer to the prima donna. "I coul
see by the expression on your fac
and the light in your eyes that yo
were inspired."
"I fear you are mistaken," sal
the prima donna, with her most en
gaging smile. "Our art is so exact
ing that we don't care to eat
hearty meal before singing. I wa
ravenously hungry, and I was think
rored in all the walls of the room
However, if the bulb had bee
left in the room after being e
tinguished it, being dead and not
perfect reflector, would finally ha1
absorbed all the light back ai
have converted it into heat.
If light from an object is not a
sorbed it, being energy, travels c
forever. Take a church steeple wit
the sun shining on it and no elou<
above. The light reflected from tl
steeple will go out iuto space ai
travel forever unless it strike son
matter in space. So a person pu
distant planet could see the steep
if he had glasses strong enouglithe
matter of seeing being mere
to receive enough light from tl
oflfln tr? imnrpss thp rpfinn.
ovvu vwyvvv w v>'?/ v . -w
If this celestial observer we
wery far away the light of cour
would take some time to get 1
him and he could not possibly si
the steeple as soon after the si
struck it as could an observer c
the earth.
In the regions of space there ai
rays of light that were reflect
from people and buildings ages ag
If some one were there to catc
these rays he could actually s<
things that long ago ceased to e:
ist except as light rays.
Astronomers do actually see sue
things, for they can look at sta
whose light has taken forty years i
get to the earth. If these fori
year stars were to go out no 01
on the earth could possibly s<
them go out for forty years. The
would still be seen in the sky i
bright as ever for forty years mor
