A great storm wave is peculiar to cy clones. At the center of the disturb ance the mercury in a good barometer may be lower by three Inches than that In a similar instrument on the verge of the cyclone. ThIs is owing to the diminution of atmospheric pressure consequent on the rotation of the air wheel, and as nature abhors a vacuum the sea in the vortex rises above its usual level until equilibrium Is restor ed. This storm wave advances with the hurricane and rolls in upon the low land like a solid wall. In the Backer gunge cyclone of 1s7G the storm wave covered the land at the eastern end of the Ganges delta at heights varying from ten to forty-five feet, as measured by marks on the trees.

During a spell of particularly hot weather a well known baronet came across three workmen engaged on a job on his estate. One of them remark ed, as workmen not infrequently do, on the dryness of the job. The heat had perhaps extended Itself to the bar onet's temper. At any rate, he turned away, with the reply: "If you are thirsty, you know where the well is. You will find a pail there." Thinking over his remark a little lat er, it flashed across the baronet's mind that he had given orders for three bot tles of champagne to be put into the pall and lowered into the well to cool for dinner.

Among other good stories told by Cyrus Townsend Brady in his "Under Tops'ls and Tents," published by Scrib ners, is this: It is related that a large number of naval cadets were negligent in follow Ing the service in the chapel, which was after the ritual sof the Episcopal church. An ineautious officer in charge on Sunday morning made a little ad dress to, i:iw ch party on the sub ject, saying he si.jposed that some of them erred through ignorance, but if they would ob.;crve him carefully and do as he did-in military parlance, fol low the motions of the commanding of ficer-they would not go wroug. Word was passed quiletly through the battalion. They marched into the church. The otficer in charge took his place in the front pew, settled himself in his seat and calmly blew his nose. Three hundred noses were blown si multaneously with a vehemence that was startling. The officer looked around and blushed violently in great surprise. Three hundred heads "followed the mo tions of the commanding officer." Six hundred cheeks violently tried to blush, a hard thing to for a midshipman to do, and so on through the service. The man could not st-_ without in stant imitation. He finally confined himself strictly to the prescribed rit al of the service, looking neither to the right nor to the left, not daring to raise a finger or b-eathe cut of the or dinary course. 'This enterprise also was a startling success. The cadets received other instructions later in the day from a furious officer who sternly resented their innocent statements that they did not know which was ritual and which was not and that he had not instructed them that blowing his nose stood on a differ et plane from saying his prayers. It was a huge joke everywhere. BEE AND HIVE. If the hive rests on the ground, it will be too damp. It will pay to use foundations by fill ing all frames full. Set the hive a little above the ground to admit of a circulation of aIr. From 9 o'clock a. m. to 3 o'clock p. m. includes the hours of successful operat ing with bees. Procure new blood in the apiary. In breeding is as objectionable with bees as with live stock. It is necessary to unite all weak col onies that will be unable to build up into strong stocks. Care should be taken to save all young brood and the brood combs of those containing brood. On account of it being the only ma terial that can be depended upon to stay pine is the best material for hives. Combs should not be left in empty hives about the apiary. That is the worst place they can be left, as moths are always to be found near the bees and are sure to infest the combs. One advantage in closed end frames is that a hive full of combs may be handled as though it were a single piece instead of a collection of loose pieces, thus savIng work, worry and time. If the bees cannot conveniently enter the hives during the sudden changes of cool weather, quite a number will be lost; hence care should be taken to have the entrances arranged so that the bees can enter readily. A SAL.E OF VVARTS. One Juvenile Transaction That Seemed to Confirm a Theory. "This theory," said the traveling man, "that warts willl go away wvhen you stop thinking about them may have something in it, and I am inclined to have faith in it. I k~now~ from actual observation that warts can be transfer red and will give you the case in point. "I was buying a newspaper when I noticed that the hands of the newsboy were covered with warts. His stand was within a blck of my house, but I am away so much the little fellow did not know me by name. I said to him: 'You should get some one to charm away those wvarts,' that being the mueth od of getting rid of them when I was a "They ain't mine now,' he said. 'I sold them last wveek to Teddie Stearns, and they'll all go to him.' "Now, Teddie Stearns is my own boy, and I did not like to think of his smooth, chubby hands being disfigured with warts, and we did not live in wart atmosphere. They belong mcre exclusively to the harefoot boy with cheek of tan conditions. I had been such myself. When I went home, ' called my boy to mec and looked wit some anxiety at his hands. They were as clean and white as a girl's. "'What is it. papa?' he asked curi ously. "I am looking for warts.' "'Oh.' and lie drewv a long, delighted breath, 'there ain't any yet, but they'r sure to come, for I bought them from "Carrotty Mike" for a pin. IHe says I'm sure to get 'em. Ain't you glad?' "Glad!

ENERGY CANNOT BE CREATED NOR CAN IT BE DESTROYED. If Puny Man Could Accomplish Ei ther of These Impossible Things, He Could Cause "the Wreck of Mat ter and the Crash of Worlds." If you could imagine an earthworm trying to run the Niagara Electric Lighting and Power Transmission works, you would have some faint idea of the capacity of the greatest human genius :bat ever lived to run the visible universe. That is probably why the wisest of us is not permitted to un derstand the final secrets of nature. Here Is a good example. Take a rifle into a place sufficiently far from the habitations of men; put the butt on the ground and support it so that the bar rel points straigla up and pull the trig ger. The bullet will leave the muzzle with a velocity of, say, 3,000 feet a sec ond. It will rise to an enormous height, come to a standstill for an in finitesimal fraction of a second and be gin to fall back again. It will strike the earth with very nearly but not quite the same velocity as it left the muzzle of the gun. It would be exact ly the same but for the resistance of the air. What has happened is this: The ex plosion of the powder has changed a solid into a gas, and the expansive en ergy of this has driven the bullet up ward. In other words, it has for the time overcome that mysterious force by which the earth draws everything toward its own center. But when the energy of the exploded powder is exactly balanced by the pull of gravitation the bullet falls back. In the first second after its turn It falls 16 feet, in the next 32, In the next 634, in the next 128, and so on till it returns with ever increasing velocity whence it started. Nothing has been lost, nothing gain ed. The gases set free by the explo sion of the powder weigh exactly as much as the solid. Some of the energy has been used as heat, some in propel ling the bullet. Gravitation, overcome for awhile, has reasserted itself. The sum of matter and force in the uni verse is absolutely unchanged. This is as true of the quickened beat Iof a girl's heart when she meets her lover as it is of the march of the plan ets and suns through the fields of space. Every atom of matter, every unit of force, throughout the universe is con stant, external and exactly balanced, and the whole strength and genius of humanity could not Increase or dimin ish them by the slightest fraction. Now, let us Imagine what would hap pen If man could make that bullet strike the earth with greater or less fore than It left the muzzle of the gun. He would eithei- have Increased or de creased the total of universal energy, and in either case he would have thrown first the solar systepn and then the whole universe out of gear. The earth and all the other planets would begin to revolve in different or bits. The sun, with Its family of worlds, would alter its path round the un known center about which it revolves. Then world would be hurled against world and sun against sun, and stars and planets would be reduced to the faming gases from which they cooled into solids and liquids before time be gan to be. Just the same catastrophe would hap: pen if man could either create or en tirely destroy a grain of sand on the seashore. The balance of the universe. in which swing stars and planets, whose weight is-inexpressible in human figures (this tiny world of ours weighc' 6,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 tons), is in finitely more delicate than that wvhich the chemist has to keep in an airtight case and at an even temperature lest a beath of air should throw it out of gear. Thus the destruction or creation of a grain of sand would change the orbit of the earth rournd the sun. In the one case It would be drawn closer and closer to the sun, perhaps after thou sands of revolutions to be swallowed up in fiery ruin. In the other case it would gradually leave the sun and year by year wander farther away into re gions of space where human life wouldI be impossible. The result of the dislocation of such a stupendous system, which has work ed with unfailing exactitude for count less ages, is, of course, utterly beyond the scope of human imagination, and yet such a seeming trifle as the creation or destruction of a single grain of sand might, and probably would, plunge it into utter chaos and ruin.-Pearson's.

Prtty F3air Shots. In an English paper there appeared recently the veracious story of two brothers who lived in the Rocky moun tains. They had two rifles, one bullet and a keg of powder. With this outfit they managed to kill on an average twenty-seven head of buffalo a day. The way they managed was this: Broth er No. 1 would stand on one side of a buffalo and shoot through It, the bullet going Into the barrel of the rifle of Brother No. 2, wh o stood on the other side. Then Brother No. 2 would fire through the next buffalo into the rifle of Brother No. 1, and so on until the day's sport was over. Some one who saw this story bas written to say that he is acquainted with a man, a cousin, he thinks, of the two mentioned, who also lived in the Rocky mountains at one time. He had one rifle, one bullet and a 'keg of pow der, yet he managed to kill thirty head of buffalo a day-buffaloes were plenty then-and the way,he did it was this: He was not only a champion shot, but a champion runner, and when he fired through a buffalo he would run around and catch the bullet again to reload with, and so on until he exhausted his powder. How to Catch the Polar Bear. I listened attentively the other night to a gentleman who gave me a great deal of valuable information concern ing these interesting regions. He knew I was a tenderfoot and a newspaper reporter and felt at liberty, therefore, to talk freely, so I got a lot of yarns about polar bears and walruses and other creatures, large and small, which are not related In natural histories. I be lieve it was one of the advisers of "Alice In Wonderland" who suggested that the best way to catch a rabbit is to get behind a stinmp and make a noise like a carrot, and I learned with great satisfaction that the easiest way to catch a polar bear is to hide behind an iceberg and make a noise like the aurora borealis. Polar bears are very. tame and, like newspaper reporters and so'me other people, are gifted with in quiring minds. When a stranger comes out on the ice, they greet him cordially and show a justifiable curiosity as to his business and- intentions, which causes them to fall an easy prey to the parlor rug -trust.-Norway Letter in Chicago Herald. 1101sy Sunbeams. Fill a glass vessel with lampblack, colored silk or worsted. Focus the rays of the sun in a lens-that,.is, hold a magnifying glass so that the rays pass through it before they fall on the glass vessel. Then revolve in the light, be tween the lens and the vessel, a disk with an opening or slit in it so that the light is alternately falling on the ves sel and being shut out. Now listen, and you will hear a noise when the light passes through the slit, but there will be silence wh'en' it is shut out. You must place your ear close to the glass holding the silk or other substance. Another experiment is to use a prism instead of an ordinary lens. This makes a rainbow, and as the rays pass through the slit it is possible to tell that some parts of the solar spectrum as it is called-produce a sound as they fall on the glass vessel, while other parts have no effect.
