Scandal
''But only told the truth about her; what
,arm in that?"-[A woman's answer.l
Friend, if it pain the feeling mind
To sin against our common kind,
By careless word or phrase,
How much that after pain Is stirred
To know that We have lightly slurred
The noblest OF our race!
To know they slumber in the grave
Whose living hearts were far too brave
To quarrel with the throng;
Too proud to have the cold world read;
Yet not too proud to inly bleed,
At felsehood, shame and wrong.
There is no heart that would not weep,
And turn its snsers to kindness deep,
Ifit could know the cost
At which its victim stihed pain,
And wore that calm heroic meiu
Unconquered to the last.
And il we weep the common wrong
4 slight to one amid the throng-
What anguish tits to know
The nobly pure, and gently proud,
At falsehood's scathing blow!
And yet, o, friend, il thou and
Gould choose between truth and lie,
The last were still most kind!
A lie we yet can wipe away
Gods truth we never can gainsay-
That scar we leave behind.

A THEORY OF THUNDER.-It occurs
to the writer that the cause assigned in
the textbooks for the phenomenon
commonly called thunder, is neither
satisfactory or correct. In substance it
Is this: The electricity in passing from
one cloud to another, or to the earth,
makes vacuum along its course and
what we call thunder is the subsequent
collision of the divided atmosphere.
This is perhaps true, IL we accept it
as statement Of u result but | think
1t affords u partial explanation only
My theory in regard to the phenOmen-
on is this: The electricity in passing
from one cloud to another or to the
earth, decomposes the water in the
cloud into its component gases; and
the great heat of the electricity ignites
and explodes the gases, and reforms
them into water.
If something like this does not occur
If an explosion does not take place.
cannot understand why the mere pass.
cloud or through the open air, should
not be quite as noiseless, as the passage
Of any solid body would be through
either or both Of these media.
The violence of the explosion depends
on the volume of electricity set free,
aud the amount Of water decomposed !;
or If y volume ofelectyicity pass through
= perfectly dry medium, there could be
no decomposition of water, and cOnse-
quently no defamation.
And may not the fact that we can see
electricity at all depend upon the COM
bustion of gases evolved in the decOm-
position of water IN the atmosphere ?
