Excerpt from The Educational Weekly, 1884: Volumes I and II The following curious facts may not be generally known: If a tallow candle be placed in a gun and shot at a door, it will go through without sustaining injury, and if a musket ball be shot into the water, it will not only rebound, but be ¿attened, if fired through a pane of glass, it will make a hole the size of the ball without cracking the glass, if the glass be suspended by a thread it will make no difference, and the thread will not even vibrate. Cork, if sunk two hundred feet in the water, will not rise on account of the pressure of the water. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
