Comly Independent Candidate,
Reuben T. Comly, of Union town-
ship, has filed papers that will put his
name on the ballot to be voted on
November 7th, as a candidate for
county treasurer.
Mr. Comly was a candidate against
George G. Fink at the Republican
primaries three years age, and again
this year against Prichard, the Phil-
ipsburg Republican, who won out.
He is a clean man in politics, and has
a large personal following, and may
lead Prichard in number of votes cast
for treasurer when the ballots are
counted.

They Have Never Yet Been Mads,
Even In the Laboratory.
One of the needs of the day is a
perfectly spherical steel ball, and yet
it has never been made even in the
laboratory, much less in the shop for
commercial uses. When we consider
the importance of ball bearings for au-
tomobiles, motorcycles and other ma-
chinery the imperfections in steel balls
must appeal to all as of the greatest
moment. Of course we make pretty
good steel balls, which could not have
been manufactured a few years ago.
80 far as the eye can discern, they are
perfectly spherical, too, and ordinary
measuring instruments will not be able
to detect any difference in them, but
nevertheless they are not perfectly
spherical.
A steel ball for automobile bearings
mnst be perfect within .0001 inch, and
they are made even more perfect than
this, but mathematical perfection in
this respect seems to be almost as il-
lusive as squaring the circle or discov
ering the perpetual motion machine,
When the steel ball was first used in
the bearings of bicycles it was a very
imperfect sphere. It was not called
upon to bear any great load, and the
velocity was not great. At the best
the load on it was not more than 200
pounds, and at the rate of sixty miles
an hour the revolutions were not more
than 720 per minute. Compare that
with the load and velocity of the mod-
ern ball bearings of automobiles. Fre.
quently the load approximates a thou
sand pounds and the velocity is any-
where from S00 to 1,200 revolutions
The small steel balls must take the
maximum joad of the car and pass it
on to others without binding or catch.
ing. A slight tmperfection in any one
ball would cause trouble. In fact, it
is Impossible to use bails with any ap-
preciable variation In size from one
another, aud the more nearly round
they cre the better the results,
Steel balls are not only made more
perfect in shape than ever before, but
they are harder and tougher. As
there is a tendency to flake, only spe
cial steels can be used Iu their manu
facture, and these tough, hard steels
are all the more difficult to work with
to secure perfect roundness. The
chrome steel, of which most balls for
bearings are made, is one of the most
diflicult of steels to cut or shape, and
the work of handling it has developed
special tools and machines made of
even harder material
While we have not yet made the
perfectly spherical steel ball and per
haps may never succeed, the point of
perfection reached is little short of
wonderful, The approximately per
fect steel ball is a matter of vital im.
portance wherever machines and ma-
chinery are made and used. The ap-
plication of the ball bearing system
is extended to new lines of industrial
use each year, and builders of all
kinds of apparatus are taking advan-
tage of the perfection reached by the
manufacturers of these little spheres
of tough steel.—~Harper's Weekly.

Dancing In Washington's Days.
It was a dancing age. None was too
old or too dignified to join in the pas-
time. We have it on the authority of
seneral Greene that on one occasion
Washington danced for three hours
without once sitting down. Patrick
Henry would close the doors of his of-
fice to betake himself to dancing or
fiddling, and Jefferson dearly loved to
“rosin” his bow for a merry jig. The
story is told of him that once when
away from home he received news of
the burning of his father's house.
“Did you save any of my books? he
asked of the slave who brought him
the tidings. “No, massa,” answered
the negro, “but we saved the fiddle.”

nial Cavalier.”
