When it hi Neon en Monday In Lon-
don, Tuesday Hes Just Begun at
Cape Deshnef, Siberia, but Sunday
Has Not Yet Ended at Attu Island.
Three days can exist at tbe same
time! It sounds Impossible, but it la
nevertheless a fact that When It is very
late Sunday night at Attn island it la
Monday noon at London and Tuesday
morning ot Cape JHsdinef, Siberia!
If one travels westward one loses a
day in going round the world. Jf one
travels eastward one gains a day.
Could one travel at the rate of 15 de-
grees a day one would lose exactly one
hour each day. In twenty-four days
the circuit would be complete.
Inasmuch as nun ami earth are con-
stantly revolving and day merging into
night. Sunday leasing into Monday,
etc., U is obvious that at one point on
tbe world'* surface an arbitrary line
must t>e set, to the past of which Is one
day. to the west of which is the next
day. This immediate “jump” of a day
regulates the calendar for one circum-
navigating the globe.
Tbia “international dnte line," aa It is
called, passing north aud south and di-
viding our world into two equal parts.
Is the oue hundred and eightieth merid-
ian and crosses tbe Pacific ocean—
where, fortunately, there is very little
land-taking a slight bulge outward to
Include Siberia, aud one tbe other way
to Include Attu island, which belongs
to Alaska geographically. The map
will show this. West of this line Is
Monday and east of It is Sunday.
When it is noon on Monday in Lon-
don Tuesday has already begun at
Cape Deshnef, Siberia, but Monday
morning has not yet dawned at Attn
Island Nearly half an hour of Sunday
still remains there. We are thus con-
fronted with the paradox of three days
coexisting at the same time.
We must remember that every day
begins at midnight If we could travel
round the world at the same rate that
It travels, beginning our flight at noon,
it would lie jierpetually noon all tbe
way round! Yet we should lose a day.
While at any particular point on the
surface of the earth a day Is twenty-
four hours dong, every day, as a mat-
ter of fact, lasts forty-eight hours—
sometimes even longer. This seems
another contradiction. Tet It can be
explained.
Any given day, say Christmas, be-
gins (as that day) immediately west of
the 180th parallel One hour later
Christmas day begins 15 degree* west
of the date line, two hours later 80 de-
grees west of tbe ltna and no on round

Those living Just west of the date
line would have enjoyed twelve hours
of Christmas when It rea<*bed England,
eighteen hours when It began In the
United States snd twenty-four hours
(a whole day) when it began In Alas-
ka. Already Christmas had existed
twenty-four hours on this globe, but
having Just begun in western Alaska
It will last there twenty-four hours
longer.
We have Just seen that each day
lasts for forty-eight hours. As a mat-
ter of fact, a day lasts In some places
more thap forty-nine hours. This is
because of the Irregularity-of the date
line previously mentioned.
l«et us tiegin an imaginary journey
from Cape Deshnef, Siberia, at mid-
night. As midnight sweeps westward
successive places see the tiegiuning of
the day. When the day begins in Lon-
don it has been that same day at Cape
Deshnef twelve hours and forty-five
minutes.
When this same day arrives at Attu
island It has been twenty-five hours
and twelve minutes since It began of-
ficially at Cape Deshnef. 8ince the day
will then last twenty-four hours at At-
tu island, before It Is spent forty-nine
hours and twelve minutes will have
elapsed from the beginning of thr.tday
until the time It closes.
Thus three days can exist at one
time, as before explained.—Hereward

FIRE RISKS ON FARMS.

A contributor to Farm and Fireside
show* how^appalling fire risks are on
farms. He tells how to reduce some
of these fire risks and writes in part
as follows;
“The Inveterate smoker Is about as
dangerous as a walking stick Of dyna-
mite. It makes me shudder to see a
man smoking around the farm build-
ings. One man X know never will for-
get the way he was run off the farm
when I caught him smoking a ciga-
rette while stacking hay.
“Another dangerous practice of which
the average man is guilty Is that of
carrying ordinary matches loose In his
pockets. He should carry either safe-
ty matches or keep the ordinary kind
in a metal box.

Or, “THE DAWN OF A NEW REPUBLIC."
A Stupendous Mutual Masterpiece in Four Wonderful Farts.
Frankly, this film wasn’t made aa a Mutual Master-Picture,
it was made to go out alone aa one of the big motion picture, ac-
complishments of the decade. Thrilling—intense—overpowering,
yet full of trembling sunshine and tremendous spaces—where the
horizon is miles away and the foreground frighteningly near,—it
ia truly the great melodrama of the blood-red dawn on a new re-
public,
iii ia being sent out, big as It ia, as a fitting companion to
those splendid Mutual Master-Pictures which you have been
peeing.

A Gladstone Anacdot*.
Lord Alverotone tells this anecdote
of Gladatoue In his “Recollections
“Mr. Gladstoue wag very much In-
terested in the Caucasus. I had a
friend. Captain X, who had recently
come home from that district, and I
gave him a letter of Introduction to Mr.
Gladstone. A few days later I met Mr.
Gladstone in Parliament street. He
stopped me and said, ’Your friend.
Captain X., knows more about the Cau-
casus than any man I ever met’ A
few minutes afterward I met Captain
X. In Pall Mall I said to him, ‘Well,
you have made a great impression, Mr.
Gladstone.’ 'Have IT he said. ‘Yes,’
I replied. 'He aays you know more
about tbe Caucasus than any man he
ever met.’ 'Well/ said Captain X., ‘that
is very strange, for, though I waa with
him for three-quarters of an hour, I
made only three observations.’”
