i i # EE ————————————————— Bellefonte, Pa., July 26,1907. —————————————————— The Line That Marks Where Day | Begins and Ends. ————— IT TRAVERSES THE PACIFIC. The Way This Important Boundary Came to Be Established — Spots Where Today, Tomorrow and Yester- day Are Still a Confused Jumble. It is evident that the day must begin same time in any given place. writer in the St. James' Gazette i in America, it follows that, if this ple were continued without limit Ifway round the world, at the same moment that it was Monday noon in London. As this is reductio ad absur- dum, we have to look for the limit, which does, in fact, exist, on the prin- ciple that as one moves westward the time gets earlier and as one moves eastward it gets later. Before the circumnavigation of the globe there was no difficulty. When on a Monday the sun stood over Lon- don it was Monday noon in London. As the sun moved (to use the popular phrase) westward and stood a little later over Dublin it became Monday noon in Dublin, and so on until it reached the western limit of the known world. When the sun passed over that limit, that was the end of noon for that Mon- day, and nobody knew what the sun was doing until he reappeared on the eastern limit of the known world, bringing with him Tuesday morning. It Is evident, therefore, that while the sun was in the unknown abyss be- tween west and east he dropped the at- tribute of making the time at all places directly under his rays Monday noon and took to himself the attribute of making it Tuesday noon. As the confines of the world were pushed farther eastward and west- ward, respectively, the unknown abyss where this change of attribute had to be made got narrower and narrower until, when the globe was circumnavi- gated, the place of change became simply a line, This line exists and is the place where the days begin. As the sun crosses this remarkable spot the time jumps twenty-four hours onward— from noon one day to noon on the next day. The situation of the line has been located gnite fortultously—namely, by the circumstance whether any given place was first reached by civilized man journeying from the east or from the west. The discoverer brought with him the almanac from whence he came, and if he came from the west the time in the pew country would be later, and if he came from the east it would be earlier : z g : from America would arrive on Mon- There must be people living so pear this line that by going a few miles with the initials of their captors have escaped from their crawls In Grand Cayman and within three months have been recaptured at the fishing ground, a distance of over 300 miles. The last instance of this was when a crawl was eut down and 200 turtles escaped. Within three months thirty of them were canzhit by different fishing boats ff the Nicaraguan coast, A PAPER OF PINS. Pins were introduced in the six- teenth century. Then they were costly and highly prized as gifts. A paper of pins was more acceptable than a bouquet. An act was passed in 1543 making it illegal to charge more than eightpence a thousand for metal plus. Persons of quality often used pins made of boxwood, bone and silver, while the poor put up with wooden skewers. In those day husbands were often surprised at the great amount of mon- ey that went for pins; hence the term “pin money." Not so many years ago the frugal American housewife was wont to teach pin economy by teaching her children that canny couplet, “See a pin and pick it up, all the day you'll have good luck.” —Philadelphia Record. The Indirect Method. Homemade ice cream was a regular item -on the bill of fare at Willie's house, and while he liked the cream he drew the line at turning the freezer. One day when his mother returned home she was agreeably surprised to find him working at the crank as if his life depended on it. “I don't see how you got him to turn the Ice cream freezer,” she said to her husband. “I offered him a dime to do it, and he just laughed at me.” “you didn’t go about it the right way, my dear,” replied her husband. “I bet him a nickel he couldn’t turn it for half an hour.”—Harper's.

Greenwich Observatory. In the year 1075 King Charles IL. England founded the royal observatory at Greenwich in order that astronom- jcal observations might be made for the assistance of sailors. The history of the observatory has been the his tory of chronology and of this practi cal side of agtronomy. Its work and its standards have become distinctly international.

The cost of experience is generally mon- ey well invested. A girl doesn’t need a fountain pen to write a gushing letter. The trouble with the average hread- winner is that he wants cake. A man doesn’s necessarily have to marry in haste to repent at leisure. Small boys are divided into two classes— the bad ones and the dead ones. You couldn’t broaden out some men by running over thew with a steam roller. Marriage is a lottery, and the only lucky gamblers are those who don’t play. When a girl refuses a fellow and he doesn’t go to the bad it is a bitter blow to her pride. The pure-food jeple should get onto the fact that most of the love is adulterated with iilthy luere. If women were only as perfect as they expect their husbands to he, heaven would be at our very doors. There's a lot of difference between for- getting what we ooght to know aod know- | ing what we onght to forget. ES New Advertisements.
