Let us suppose that a stretched
cord or wire fixed at both ends, and
let a sharp blow be given it. The
hand or other instrument which I

Older to do so, and its motion was
one of translation, but the cord
had received the blow and to ,

been transferred cannot

know well enough what will happen.
It will commence vibrating, more or

We have therefore here
seen motion of translation changed
into motion of vibration, but a
and quite as familiar trans-
formation takes place which is in-
visible.
It us take a coin or any small
piece of metal and rub it well with
a cloth or handkerchief. In a short
time it will become warm and if the
friction be still continued even
pleasantly hot. The visible motion
of the hand has been transformed
into the invisible vi-
which we call heat. That

come a scientific truism, but it was

posed by many to be some

eighteenth century, that of the for-

My Dear
I am pleased to say, in answer
to petition sent us from the

management has decided to put
on, at an early date, a

Id order to meet the wishes of
petitioners.
Io potting go this train we, of

great to warrant continuance.
We hope, however, it will t least
pay expense, although we are not
tall that it will.
Yours very truly,

While the letter does not say
just when the additional train
will he put on, the assurance that
it is to be at early date is
