and rapid radiation from the sandy sur
face, begins to ascend !, the moisture laden
air Of the Missouri and Mississippi val
leys and the Gulf Of Mexico on the one
hand and the cold current from the Rocky
mountains on. the other rushes, is to take
the place of that which is ascending
We have thus produced an easterly wind
on the front or eastern side Of the area Of
ascending air, and a westerly wind behind,
or on the western side Of it; to the south,
north, and intermediate points the wind
will blow toward the center from those
points around this area toward the center.
Now, if the earth were fiat and at rest,
and the air over this sandy area equally
heated, the wind would blow in straight
lin, from the circumference toward the
center; ascend and spread out at the top;
there would be no motion forward or
backward Of the whole body Of air, and
this condition of things might exist for
ever. But, owing to the CONFORMATION
and motion of the earth, and the laws of
heat and its influence in evaporation , nd
condensation, change is soon impressed
on this initial upward and centric motion
Of the air, and the collection of phenome-
ma which we term storm results.

His PRESCRIPTION.

Up in New Hampshire is we'll known
eccentric individual, self-oonstituted
curer of all ills; sort of universal pana-
cea, "body and soul, head, heart, and
conscience doctor, who with all his &C.
centricitics, has fund of actual wit that
is 'lard to beat. Not long ago, the "doc-
tor was called upon the witness stand.
The opposing counsel, who is said some
times to "wet his whistle with ssliquor
pier" knowing the doctors peculiari-
ties, ventured, in cross-examining him, to
show him up a bit. The result will be
appreciated
What is your businessa" pompously
inquired the counsel.
"My business is to do what little good
/ can to my fellow-men,' y modestly re-
piled the doctor.
"But that doesn t answer my question, .
gruf1y remarked the counsel. ssHow do
you spend your time?"
"Why, Squire, it takes about all nv
time to do what said, remarked the
doctor.
"But | want something more definite. .
stoutly demanded the counsel. ,.How
do you go about your business?"
'Ihat depends upon circumstances, ac-
cordlngg to the nature of the case. . ex-
planned the doctor. sFor instance, if I
were going to begin on you the first
thing should do would be to advise YOU
TO sign temperance pledge!''
4 The court roared, and the counsel. IA If
convinced the doctor was pursuing iegi-
innate and respectable vocation, proceed-
ed with the regular cross examination.

Carpet Beetle.

We hear considerable complaint about
this pest. It does notconfine its rayaees
to carpets, but infests and Injuries wear
ing apparel, which has been left some
time hanging in the closets. One person
reports that 1t as been found eating cot
ton goods. The beetle SO nearly resem-
bles the one which is frequently seen on
bacon, dried beef, etc., that most house
wives, who happen to find one of these
beetles on the window of a bedroom or
chamber would suppose it to be the .sba-
con beetle" In our own experience we
have found them attacking the white por-
lions OF carpet in preference to the col
ored parts. The larva, which does the
mischief, IS dark brown, airy, oval in
shape, and the hairs at the head and tail
are those fringing the sides. If the car
pet be lifted carefully and quickly the
little worm--about three sixteenths of an
inch long when fully grown-will lie
perfectly still for moment and then
move rapidly into a convenient crack in
the floor, or under the Dashboard Of the
room. The perfect beetle is supposed to
subsist like its relative the ssmuseum pest"
on flowers, or the honey therein, although
they have not been taken on flowers, ex-
cept in California. The beetle is black,
with red line down the back from
which lines are three projections on each
side, opposite which projections and well
down on the sides of the beetle are irregu-
lar white spots or splashes. Its length
is about one-eight of an inch. So far as
tried, Kerosene or benzine seems to be
the only convenient medicame which
will kill the lave. The ordinary rene
dies against moths seem to have no effect.

If WE COULD KNOW.

If we could know what lies before our feet.
II we could see the shadows lowering near,
We would not dare to take another step;
Our life would be an agony Of fear.
If we could know what one small word would
do
To brighten up this little world Of ours,
To cheer and comfort worn and weary hearts
How carefully we'd scatter these sweet
flowers.
If we could know how soon our home would
be
Bereft of all that makes it bright and dear,
How would the shadow of the coming loss
O'erwhelm lis with it's constant dread and
fear.
Not knowing, we go onward, day by day,
And if this day be full of grief and pain,
We think tomorrow will be brighter far,
And for each loss there will be some sure
gain.
Oh! it is well for us our Father keeps
Securely hidden from our mortal eyes,
The rough and rugged pathway we must
tread,
Before we reach our home beyond the Skies
Oh, it is well, for stumbling blindly on,
We reach like little children for his hand;
And, clasping it, take courage, knowing wen
He'll bring us safely to the better land

About Storms.

Benjamin Franklin first made the OBJ
servation, hundred years ago, that all
so-ca lied northeast storms came from the
west. This observation of our greatest
philosopher has been since so absolutely
verified as to constitute a law. All great
Storms in this country move from the
west in general easterly direction usu-
ally little to the north Of the east.
Nearly all Of them originated in that sec
ton Of the country marked on the maps
as the Western plains the high table
lands between the meridian Of ninety five
degrees on the east and the Rocky noun
tains on the west, comprising the area
occupied by Montana, Dakota, Nebraska,
Western Kansas, Indian Territory, New
Mexico, Western 7 xas, and Nothern
Mexico. The origin Of storm in this
region may be stated as follows. The air
over large sandy area, becoming rairi-
fed by the intense heat Of the suns rays

DWartS.

Old writers were fond of relating in
stances Of court dwarfs, when taken into
the kings council, cutting out all the
kings advisers by their shrewd observa-
tons and ingenious suggestions. As an
example Of their combativeness, we rec
ollect hearing ow some dwarfs in
Snowman caravan asserted their mental
superiority over the good-natured simple
giants in such manner that t poor
bullled monsters actually stnod in awe of
their fiery little travelling companions.
81 have seen some men of very small
STATURE" says an old writer. ''Of this
number was John lie Estrix, of Mechlen,
who was thirty-fve years Of age, had a
long beard, and was no more than three
feet high. He could not go up stairs or
climb up a form, but had to lie assisted
by a servant. He was skilled in three
tongues, and proved himself ingenious
and Industrious" Almost as interesting
a manikin was Jeffrey Hudson who, at
feast given by the Duke of Buckingham,
started up IN complete armor from q
cold pie on its being cut open. How al
so, at court masque, Evans the kings
gigantic porter, pulled out of one pocket
a long loaf, and little Jefry, instead OF a
piece of cheese, out OF the other, is we'll
known, and will recall somewhat similar
incidents mentioned by Ainsworth in one
OF It's historical novels. 1t was this pig
nays capture by Flemish pirate that
was celebrated in poem by Sir William
Davenant. Gibson, a page to Charles L.,
was another curious specimen of diminu-
tive humanity. That must have been an
interesting wedding for the spectators,
when, at the dwarf marriage the queen
