A STUDY OF WAVE MOTION.
It la tha Vibration, Not tha Wat or, That
Movaa Forward.
The first great thing to notice
about a wave (a deep eea wave, not
a shore breaker), is that, though the
wave travels steadily forward, any
given particle of the material in
which it is traveling merely executes
a to and fro motion. A wave
is therefore the forward motion of
a vibration, but not the forward motion
of matter. It is, in fact, the
motion of a motion.
i ? 1 1 3- .J
mere are two principal Kinas 01
waves, the transverse and the longitudinal,
these names being given
from the direction of the vibration
of the medium. In the transverse
wave the motion of the material is
to and fro at right angles to the direction
of motion of the ware.
Here, for instance, I have a long
strip of corrugated paper lying on
the table. I lift one end quickly
and bring it down again, a wave
runs right along to the far end.
Quite obviouslv the paper does not
travel with tke wave; it merely
rises and falls again at points successively
farther and farther from
my hand. The wave travels on,
however, and is quite as clearly a
wave as anv other you like to name.
Here, again, is a rope stretching
from one end of the hall to the other.
I give it a transverse impulse
by striking it sideways near one end,
fAii fnA A TTTO rA rnnninrf olnnfr
QLLU > VJU ac IIIV no*C iu.xixiii-Lg txxvxxg
it to the opposite wall, where it ia
reflected ;ind comes back to me.
In a wave of the sea?namely, a
surface wave in a liquid, the vibration
is also transverse, that is to
aay, any particular particle of water
moves up and down as the wave
passes along. You all know from
experience that a cork on water
merely bobs up and down and does
not travel forward with the wave.
If the water went forward, of
course, the cork would go too.?
Journal of the Royal Society of
Arts.
In a Bad Way.
Illustrating the ill feeling that
existed between the Whigs and the
Democrats in the old days of Boone
county, William H. Kennon, an attorney,
told of a sheriff he knew
who was a Whig and a cirruit judge
who was a Democrat. A case was
tried by jury. The visiting lawyer
trying the case handed to the judge
some instructions he had written
out with a quill pen. The judge
spent a good deal of time examining
the instructions. The lawyer
turned to the sheriff and said in a
whisper, "I don't believe your judge
can read writing." The sheriff whispered
back, "He can't read readin',
let alone 'ritin'."?"Bench and Bar

Funny Notio??.
Nearly every shop in Japan exhibits
a placard printed in English
advertising goods, some of which
signs are very comical.
"Horse shoe maker instruct by
French horse leech," you read, or
"If you want sell watch I will buy;
if you want buy watch I will sell.
Yes, sir, we will, we will. Uome at
my shop. Watchmaker."
A Japanese laundry company announced:
"We most carefully and
cleanly wash out customers with
cheaper prices. Gentlemen, 85
cents a hundred; ladies, $1 a hundred,"
while a certain dairy announced
that they sold "Extracts
of fowls."
Kata and Kita.
An English clergyman visting
this country was discussing the English
accent.
"Our worst accent," he said, "is
the cockney one ? the one that
turns, you know, 'make haste' into
'mike 'iste,' and so on.
"I once engaged two maidserv
ants. One was a Devonian, the other
a cockney. They were twth named
Catherine, but that fact caused
no confusion in my household. I
simply called the Devon girl Kate
and the cockney Elite, and they always
knew whom I was addressing."
"Dinner of Deadly Enemies."
Lady Randolph Churchill once
gave at her house in Connaught
place what she called a dinner of
deadly enemies. "It was thought,"
si?va Afr f! W SmalW in his
"Anglo - American Memories," "a
hazardous experiment. It proved a
complete success. They were all
well bred people. They all recognized
their obligations to their host
ess as paramount for the time being.
In some cases ancient animosities
were softened Tn all they were suspended."
Cologne Water.
The following recipe for- cologne
water is highly recommended: Mix

one dram of oil of bergamot,
