WARM AIR ABOVE THE COL?. ?A Curious Fftot Reccntlj Observed Ey, Metcorbliglsts. Students of the upv-cr air were as tonished when the little balloon they sent up. with self-recording tcsr mometers, told them one day that in the high atmosphere there is a stra tum which is warmer than the :ilr immediately belcw it. No one hM yet explained this strange inversion cf temperature, but It bus now been observed so many times In different part of the world t^at there can bi? no doubt about it. it was discoveerd in lS'.n, almol simultaneously, by Mr. Telssereno de Bort near Par's and by Prof. Acs 1 mann in Germany. Since then near ly all the balloons that have r'-en above 4 0,000 ftet in centra' Europe have penetrated this stratum o: warmer air. No one knows yet it. upper limits. in England it has-ben round tha't the average height or the layer o. warmer air is about 35.000 feet. in the last ti.ree years Dr. A. Lav,-, rence Ro'eh has set afloat seventy seven balloussondes at St. Loiilb. Most of those which rc~e h'.gher tna 43,000 feet entered the stratum & warmer temperature. ( On October 8, for instance, th. temperature at 4T,00u teet was 90 degrees Farenheit, while :'t th. greater altKude of 5 4.] 00 reat t:: temperature had risen to ?~1 d>. 1 grees. Two days later th? colde:-: temperature, ?80 degrees, \vr. I found at 39.700 feet, while on > 2.500 feet hgher the tcm;er^t..r/ rose to ?Gil degrees.

Meteorologists now think they have reason to believe tnat this warmer air exists throughout the tropical regions at heights e:.reedin? 50,000 feet and that it is probably a universal phenomenon existing at some height all arouud the globe. The Call of the Junr;!e. Many a time I've come oack from a trip, leaving half my men aud all mv ivory In some deadly African swamp, naif dead with fever, swear ing that I'm done with the business Tor good. And some bright day n six months, or even it three, the smell cf the jungle gets into my nos trils, through all the sfeet traffic I hear the squeal of an elephant or t :e coughing roar of a lion's challenge? ' and that settles the business. Back I go again, knowing prec se'.y what is coming?the'sweatlng days with the chilling nights, the torments cf In sects and of thirst, the r sks and hardships and the privations. For once Africa has laid r.er spell upon a man he's hers forever. He'll dream of her, of the black tangle oi forests he's broken through, hot a the trail of a wounded bull tusker; of the parched and blistered veldts he's crossed under the blazing sunlight; of the nights, those moonlit haunt ed nl&hts, wnen he's watched beside runway, waiting for the game to come down and drink, and '.Ltened tc the ripple _or the water on the Hats, the splasu of a crocodile, the stealthy snapping of branches all around him. the scurry of menkeys over head, listened to the vast black si lence, Into which all smaler sounds are cast as pebbles are dropped into r. pool.?Berkeley Hutton in Every body's. Citr.'c Acid and Water . Dr. Riegel of the Austrian army describes in Archiv ftier Hygiene a number of experiments with citr;c acid to determine its value as a ster ilizer of water. The experiments were made with typhus, diarrhoea and cholera bacilli. A solution of 0.6 per cent citric acid was placed In shallow vessels. The cho.era germs were killed In 15 minutes; the diarrhoea bacilli were killed in 5 tc 6 hours and tne typhus in 24 hours. When the vessels were placed !n the sun's rays, the action was much quicker; the cholera germs were kill ed in 5^nilnutes and the typhus in 1% hours. It is therefore probable, says Dr. liiegel, that the use of citric acid In water exposed to the rays o* the gun in flat vesselB would be of great ben efit in countries where the usual sterilization methods (.cooking.ozon izatlon) cannot be well employed, as Is the case in most of the tropical and Bub-tropcial countries.

Let us begin with the wines; and let us assume that they are ^emiine, for one can usually have the authentic thing by paying the price for it. The wines on a richly decked table really represent the work of hundreds of French peasants, with their wives and chil dren, who, in the midst of a lovely country, rise early and toil late, with loving and tender care, watching over the growth and ripening of the fruit of what is ODe of the most beautiful and decorative plants in the world. Millions of these thrifty, simple people depend for their well being and comfort on the constant demand for wines, and for the best and purest, and therefore the most expensive wines. The rich do not compel these people to work, na ture compels them to work. . What tho rich do is to influence the direc tion in which way they shall work, and to bring within their reach all kinds of commodities In exchange for their work. Sd other things on the same table represent the well-being, thj family comfort, of shepherds in th hills, perhaps, of our own West, or of Wales or Scotland; or the wealth of iishermen on the rivers of Maine, or along our New England coasts; or, again, the earnings of the hun ters along ..the fringes of the sea ciarsbes, or among the woods and hills, or en the prairie; vigorous/ B.Jventurous men. with a warm love i of every changing aspect of natural beauty, who are thus able to lead half wild lives under the fair dome of hoaven. It L? just the putting in .motion of a huge army of folk, scat tered over widespread regions, car rying out exacting tastes, that makes the cost of an expensive banquet; and the rich man is simply the fac tor, determining in which of a score of directions a constant stream of resources shall flow, bring the power to work and recompense for work, to a varied army of good people all over the world. The basis of the thing ie that the^ richest man In the world cannot spend a penny except by paying some one for something.?Harper's Weekly. The Sun From a Bnlloon. At the height of two miles the sun i shines with a fierce intensity un known below where the dust and the denser air scatter the rays which, thu? diffused, lost their intensity while Illuminating every nook and corner of our houses. At neights exceeding five miles, this diffused light is mostly gone and th* sun shines a glowing ball, sharply outlined in a sky of which the blue is so dark as to closely ap proach" blackness. At the outer lim its of the atmosphere the sun would appear a brilliant star of massive j&ize amoag other stars; and if.one stepped from its rays into shadow he would enter Egyptian darkness. At the height of a mile and a half we found it necessary to shelter our fates to prevent sunburn, although the air around us was but little warmer than that of the previous night, being about 45 degrees. As the afternoon wore on and the bal loon began to cool and sink, we were obliged to throw out much sand, casting It away a scoopful at a time, and just after sunset it was necessary to empty two 01 ihree bags at once. ?Atlantic. Don't Tell It Don't tell anybody your age. It's nobody's business. If you look younger than you are, well and good; get the -benefit of it. If you look . older than you are nobody will be lieve what you say about it, ao don't tell them anything. Age Ib a sub ject that frightens most of us. and only disagreeable people discuss it anyway. Philosophers try to com fort us by pointing out that there are men and women who are bora old, and others who are young to the end. and boys and girla 'at 70. Still, the girl of 70, if she has the courage of her years, has hitherto been obliged to declare herself "old." Light has come now, however, and septuagenarians need only declare | that they are - "75 years young"? that is, if they feel It necessary to explain at all. But between twenty and eighty, it is Just as well to keep off the subject altogether. There are lota of thingB to talk about that are more interesting and profitable than ages. On a Whaler.
