The man who thought he had the knack of saying pleasant things calcu- lated to warm the-cockles of the oldest heart was revisiting the town in which he had spent a summer twenty years before. \I'm Miss Menrs. I don't know that you recall me,\ said a coquettish ol- derly spinster, approaching Mm in the postofBce tho day after his arrival. The ready heart warmer turned with his most beaming smile and wrung her hand. \Recall you,\ he echoed, reproach- fully. \As if one could help it. Miss Menrs! Why, you are one of the land* mnrtra nf +Ho f the earth's., center than at its source, poes it then BOW up hill? This is. a, Question which the coast and geodetic survey in Washington is> frenxiently a^ked to answer. The roply Is that \up\ means against gravitation aiid '•'down'' with gravitation; koace the afisalsslppl does not flow up hill, althangh Obviously It moves away from the center ot the globe. Plumb lines rarely point directly toward the center of the earth,; The variation from that direction has given rise to an interest- ing branch of the government's work. The visible Irregularities of the sur- face of the earths-mountains, valleys and -water.basins—affect the form of attraction which is known as gravlta- tlgn. A cubic mile of land Is two and a half times as dense ass similar volume of waiter, The plumb line tends to loan toward the earth masses and away front the water basins, These influ- ences!, which may b e computed with scleatlne accuracy, do not, howover, explain all of the deflections. Varying degrees of density some miles bolow tho surface of tho earth must bo us- snme«S to exist. ' Trifling as these deflections are, nev- er exceeding nino inches In a plumb lino a. mllo long, thoy are of considora- bio sdentlDc importance, They modify the calculations of navigators and ex- plorers ns to positions ou the earth's surface derived from tho stars. They thus become essential In high grade mapmaklng. They also help to make tho records of measurements of the onrth contribute to the story of the his- tory of tlio earth.

Fortunes have been made in the Chi- cago board of trade not by men who entered the market with a preconceived theory as to Its course, which they at- tempted to make gc-od through thick and thin, but rather by those who took things as thoy came, watching the drift, shaping their way from day to day, like prudent merchants, according to tho current This Is confusing to the novice, for the novice almost always comes in with a preconceived theory. Some time ago a young man with a large hope, a moderate fortune and consider- able social prestige was shown the enormous possibilities In December pork. It looked absolutely convincing, but he called upon a great packer with whom he hnd a personal acquaintance.

Then the marke£ turnecL The young man reviewed his' convinc- ing statistics, remembered the words of the packer and stood stubbornly upon his line. When he was getting near to the end of his margins, he was horri- fied to learn that his frtendi the packer had shifted to the other' side, of the market two weeks before. He visited him, recalled their conversation and explained the situation.
