THINGS YOU OUGHT TO KNOW ]
Value of ths Thumb.
A careful study of the subject shows
that the thumb Is worth fully one
qtiarter of the valuo of the hand. The
different finders are far from having
Iho same value before the eyes of the
law. In IVame the courts allow in
damages between IB to 3f> per cent,
value for the light, and Id to 15 per
cent, for the left. Thin percentage is
based on 100 us the total value of the
hand for the purposes of eptuiest a
livelihood, before an accident.—Hoys'
World.
A Musical Insect.
The Japanese who come to this coun
try to be educated soy that our song
birds do not give them half the pleas
ure and comfort that the Insert musi
cians of their own country do. There
are many of these singing insects in
Japan, ranging from the squeaking
(Ticket to that highly prized black
beetle that is called a “susuntushi,” the
name itself meaning Insect bell. It is
said the sound this little beetle glv-s
forth is very similar to that of the
sweetest and most delicately toned sli
ver hell Imaginable. It is also said that
a few years ago Mr. Tuknhira. the Jap
anese minister at Washington, had an
Idea that he would import some of
these Insect musicians so thnt we could
hear what real music was.
Rapid Travel.
Were Jules Verne with us to-day lie
would be greatly interested it’, two in
stances of rapid travel recently record
ed. A traveler from T.ondon to .Sort
Francisco covered the distance in two
hours and thirty-five minutes less than
ten days, the trip being "made bv the
Mauretania to New York, the Twenti
eth Century Limited to Chicago, and
the Overland Limited to San Fran
cisco a passenger from Lima. Peru,
in making a hurried trip In response
to a call to London, left Lima, the same
day by steamer to Panama, crossed by
the Panama railroad, made close con
nections with it steamer for New York,
and caught the Mauretania for Kng
iand. If the ship made or. average pas.
sage the whole trip v as covered in
nineteen days.—Scientific American.
A Peculiarity of Sound.
Of lute years a great deal of atten
tion has been paid to experiments made
for the purpose of determining the
value of endurance of sound waves.
one very interesting peculiarity lias
been brought out. In the fact that under
the snme conditions of atmosphere,
temperature, quietness, etc., sound
waves travel onl> one-fourth of the
| distance over grass that they do over
j water.
This phenomenon 1* explained by
; some scientists by the assumption that
| the surface of the water is nearly a
1 perfect reflection, and grass a com
plete absorber of sound waves.
While this is so. another odd fact
! [bout sound Ik that water far below
the surface Is a good conductor of
sound: this has been proved by ex
porlmerts in signaling from ship to
snip b> ringing of bells under water.
"Humping” Cars.
One of tho most peculiar of modern
: l< vices in railroading is what Is known
ns the "hump" method of handling
1 c ars in freight yards. By this method
the number of the cars that can b«
handled In ;t day Is at least doubled.
.\ “hump" is a made ridge construct
id in tho freight yard. The tracks on
this "hump" ure connected with all the
trad:?'. Trains arc hauled on to this
"hump” and then the cars are "cut
; out” from tin rear. Uravltv does the
j rent. and neither hacking nor shunt
ing is net est ary. ns the cal's run down
to their appointed tracks easily and
well under control of the brako.man.
i The men who operate the switches
| have to I i alert and wide-awake, how -
ever. as the cars come rapidly down
mid mistakes in tracking cars must be
few and far between. The railroad has
mi place for either a blunderer or n
mail who gets "rattled” under trying
circumstances.
The fvi-ight yard of the Pennsylvania
roml at Altoona is very unique In that
h has a natural "hump,” being built
on the side of a mountain.
A Bird With Four Lags.
British Buinn.i boasts of ono of the
few survivors of the many peculiar
i birds now known mostly as fossils.
This is the 'Tested honetzin. and may
be found only. In very dense and un
explored forests. The hoaetzln is
not-il chiefly for its peculiarity in pos
sessing four well-developed leg*. This
would never be suspected In the adult
bird, inasmuch ns a certain modifica
tion begins while the bird Is yet young
whereby the daw-like legs or hands
become shaped like a wing, and feath
ers are grown, so that when tula I ird
q-ts its full plumage there Is nothing
left from which one would suspect that
these wings were once legs. The young
birds, before this modification does take
place, leave the nest and climb or
scramble over the limbs not unlike
fri e-toads or young monkeys They
fe< d on the young arune leaves, and
ure In this young state the nearest ap
proach to a quadruped of any bird.
