Philosophy of Rain.

To understand the philosophy of rain,
a few facts from observation must be re~
membered. Were the atmosphere at all
times of Uniform temperature we should
never have any rain, or hail, or snow
The water absorbed by it in evaporation
from the sea and earth would descend in
imperceptible vapor, or cease to be
absorbed. The absorbing power OF the
atmosphere, and consequently its capsci-
ty to retain humidity, isproportionately
greater in warm than in cold air The
air near the surface of the earth is
warmer than in the region of the clouds.
The higher we ascend from the earth the
colder we find the atmosphere. Hence
the perpetual snow on very high mount
aims in the hottest climate. Now, when
from continued evaporation, the air ia
highly saturated with vapor, though it
be invisible and the sky cloudless, its
temperature is suddenly reduced by cur
rents descending from above or rushing
IRON higher to lower latitude, It's
capacity to retain moisture is diminished,
clouds are formed and the result rain.
Air condenses when it cools, and, like s
sponge filed with water and compressed
pours out the water which it cannot hold
How singular, yet how simple the
philosophy of rain.

not allowed to own foot OF land, while
they are excluded from many honorable
occupations. The social position of the
Jews In Poland is hardly above
that occupied by the Russian
serfs before they were emanci-
pated. There is little prospect of
any abatement of intolerance toward the
jews where Russian influence prevails
Their condition in western Europe is
better, but even there it is difficult for
them to obtain land. Few msre worthy
charities were ever proposed than that
OF providing them the meansof securing
land in a country which has an abun-
dance. if
The Jews in their native country were
an agricultural and pastoral people.
they carried their taste for agricultural
pursuits to Europe, and became the
most skilled farmers, stock breeders, and
fruit-grewsrs in southern Europe. In
Spain and Portugal, especially,
they were remarkably successful
III tilling the soil and raising
stock. They were virtually driven from
these pursuits by actsof the government.
They were compelled to observe not only
the Christian Sabbath, but all the days
held sacred by the Catholic church. TO
keep all the days held sacred TO the
dominant church as well as their own,
was in effect to abandon their fields,
orchards, and vineyards altogether.
The same causes prevented them from
engaging In manufactures or local trade,
They had but one way of proftab.y
investing their capital, and that was to
let it out at usury. The Jew became a
money -loaner, not from choice, but by
force Of circumstances. Money would
increase during church days as well rs
other days, but capital was unproductive
a large portion of the time if invested in
land, goods, or machinery.

The Jews In Agriculture.

AT the recent convention of the Amer
ican Hebrew union held in Milwaukee
two projects were considered for the for
nation of agricultural colonies. One
contemplates the purchase of lands and
the settlement on them of the children
brought np in Jewish orphan asylums
At present their children ordinarily Lass
into stores or become pedJlers of goods.
In the great majority of cases they re-
main in cities and during the earlier
years of their lives, at least, they are
dependent on Others for employ ment.
The proposal to give these orphan chill
dren start in agriculture, by means Of
which they will have an independent
and honorable occupation, is an excel
lent one. All the Jewish charitable in
stitutions are admirably conducted, and
the plan of providing for orphans after
they are of an age to support themselves
is worthy OF oommepdation. By
placing them on contiguous farms they
can receive instruction in agriculture,
stock raising, and fruit raising at CON-
psrstively small cost.
There was also a proposition before
the convention to purchase in the western
and southwestern states large bodies
Of cheap lands with view OF offering a
place OF refuge and means of procuring
a living tothe oprressed:Jews in Euro
pean countri g. 1t is well known that
the Jews inlPoland, and in R,umania

Drowned by a Fish.

A strange story comes to US from down
the river. Mr.. Frank Billings, an old
fisherman. near the upper lock Of the
river, while running bis trot line few
dayt since, found that he had hung .
msnster catfish. In order to make sure
OF his game he wrapped the line around
his wrist. The fish, making 9. desperate
effort for liberty, upset the skiff. and the
fisherman, being unable to disentangle
himself from the line, was dragged under
the water and drowned before assistance
conld reach him. Some neighbors on
the bank witnessed the catastrophe and
ha.tened to the scene, but too late.
They recovered the dead body Of the
drowned man, and then secured the fish,
which was found to weigh two hundred
add twenty-five pounds. This statement
comes 20 us 20 we'll authenticated that
we can not doubt its truth.-[H Hart
