Sorwul young men, members of a

had vainly attempted to become acquainted
with a certain young lady
there In charge as librarian. Plan
after plan was tried, but all proved of
no avail.
Finally, one day when these gontlo*
men were standing on the corner the
young lady, carrying a suit case,
alighted from a car. One of the gentlemen,
thinking his opportunity had
cotne. stepped forward and politely offered
to carry the case.
She handed it to him and they
walked together up the street. Ho
was thinking of the progress he was
making and how joaious and envious

All went well until they reached the
library door, when she reached for
her suit case and handed him a nickel.

When clouds are formed by the condensation
of very mlnuto drops of
water from the vapor In the air, under
certain conditions these drops exhibit
a small electrical charge. As the
drops coalesce the capacity increases
less rapidly than the quantity of
charge, for the reason that two drops
of equal size, when they flow together,
produce one of only slightly larger diameter.
On this account the drops

any important mark on a healthy tree.
The sapsucker Is some'.imes girllty of
