The Monsoon Has Burst.

In these four words lie the "promise
and potency" OF renewed lite and fer
tllity this coming year for Western
India; for what the rising Of the Nile
Is to Egypt, such Is the breaking of the
summer monsoon to the Malabar coast
and It's adjacent regions. AS the Nile
sometimes fails to reach its annual
hlgh-water mark, so the great cloud
gathering Of tho Indian Ocean OCCASION
ally disappoints the anxious people of
the peninsula and passes away with in
sufficient gifts of moisture. 1t is how
ever, of excellent omen when as in the
present season, the sea- bora vapors
collect thickly and in good time, aud
break with q vast convulsion Of tho
atmosphere. There is no longer any
such mystery about this yearly phe-
ncmenon as prevailed In old days, when
Sinbad navigated the Arabian waters,
or when IIippalus tho Greek made
bold to spread his sail before the strange
winds which blow 80 stcadfastly
toward Muzells, tho sport of spces.'
The southwest monsoon is now as we'll
understood by science as tho movo
ment Of a church clock. If tie cquat-
orial regions of the earth were covered
With water tho trade winds would bow
steadily right round the globe, follow
Ing the SUMS course with northward
detection from December to June and
with a southwark slant from June TO
December. But the hot months Of
April and May heat the surface of
southern Asia 80 that the atmosphere
above 1t expands and rises. The colder
air from tho India Ocean thcrcuDon
flows up to supply the vacuum. 10 the
north of the equator the revolution of
the earth lends this current a westerly
deviation and the result is a long and
steady stream of wind, which laden
with the clouds raised from the wide
Arabian Sea, drives and piles these
water bearing masses in serried ranks
against the Western Ghauts of India,
where, about the beginning Of June,
they gather In dark canopy, cover
Ing the sky far and near. On the
Coromandel coast Of the peninsula it
Is the northeast monsoon which rcu-
ders the same ser> Ice Of the reversed
period OF the year for that side of India.

up from tho Bay Of Bengal to break

Ho,o to Cut Glass.-It is not general
ly known that panes Of glass can be
cut under water with ease to- almost
any shape by means Of = pair of scis-
sors. Two things, however, are neces-
sary for success: First. the glass
must be kept quite level in the water
while the scissors are applied; and
secondly, to avoid risk, it Is better to
perform the cutting by cropping off
small pieces at the corners and along
the edges, thus reducing the form
gradually to that required-for if any
attempt be made to cut the glass at
once to proper shape, as one would
out cardboard, it will most likely
fracture where 1t Is not wanted. The
softer glasses cut best; and the scis-
sors need not be very sharp. Whom
the operation goes on we'll the glass
breaks away from the scissors In
small pieces In straight line with the
blades.

WIT AND HUMOR.

A DETROIT belle some time since re-
ceived by express from an Eastern city
very han0some-loOktng umbrella,
aud SHE had 1t out the o5her day for
the first time. Taking Woodward
avenue car for short ride, cha reached
the handle or the umbrella up to pull
the bell-strap, when she desired to get
off. AS she pulled down the umbrella
began to lengthen, and her feelings
may be imagined when she found the
umbrella in her hand and sword-cane
arrangement about two feet lonG dang
ling to the strap above her head. This
new idea In umbrella handles didn't
seem to strike her favorably, and as
tho car halted she left both portions
behind her, and seemed good deal
confused when man called after her :
"Can'e never depend upon them
things in a row. You'd better got q

The inao'o of sewage ls the source of
much distrust Of river water. Prof.
Tidy believes, however,, that within
certain limits the pollution of the wa
ter from such cause is too slight to pro-
duce any effect. In a lenghthy pa
per on the subject, he presents the
conclusion that oxidation Of the organ
ic matter of sewage takes place very
rapid ~ In running water, and that
such impurities are by this means en-
ttrely destroyed during flow Of few
miles, provided the pure water of the
ream is In quantity sufficient to
dilute the sewage matter. He decides
fu, ther that, whatever may be the ac-
tual cause OF certain maladies the ellis
eased matter which finds It's way into
the river is destroyed along with the
organic impurities.

Tho Desert OF Sahara.

This trail of country so far from be-
ing a desolate plain Of moving sand, as
populary believed, the Sahara Is a cul-
tivated country, fruitful as the Garden
of Eden. Like our "great American
DESERT" it has been greatley be,ied.
Ell Sahr, as the Arabs pronounce it, Is
indeed vast archipelago of oases, Off
ering an animated group of towns and
villages. A large belt Of fruit trees
surrounds each Of these villages, and
the palm, the fig, the date, apricots,
pomegranates, and vines abound in the
utmost profusion. Ascending the A tlas
mountains by a gradual slope to the
region of high table-lands, we come to
the land Of the Mozabites, or Ben
Mozab. and then comes gradual
descent for three hundred miles to the
vast stretch of treeless country known
as the great desert. The rivers have
an inclination of about one foot in four
hundred. Many of the streams are
dry, except after rains, when they
deluge the country. Gun-shots are
fred as soon as the torrents appear /; all
objects arc removed, and soon, with a
terrible noise, the food rolls on. The
Saharian city stands as If by magic on
the banks OF the waters which rise to
the TUFTS of the palm tree; but few
days only elapse ere all disappears,
leaving the district rich and fruitful.
The inhabitants are not a migratory
people, and unlike the tent dwellers of
the northern slope, live In substantial
houses with thatched roofs and ceilings
of cane laid upon joists of oliye wood.
These house generally consits Of but
one room, and have no furniture except
mats on the floor and upon the walls
for three or four feet high. Beds are
sometimes found, but no one thinks of
sleeping on them. The walls are white
washed and inscribed with verses from
the Koran. The inhabitants arc made
up Of genuine Arabs. and Berbers, or
Kabyles, as the French call tn en-. Jews
are found in every OASIS, and all very
prosperous and influential, doing much
of the trading aud making up Of the
great caravans.

THE children were discussing what
they would like to be and do, and most
of them wished for position with lit
tle work and big pay. One Of them
said, "Well, should like to sit on the
roof all my days, and have nothing to
do, just like Joseph In Egypt" Very
naturally the attention Of the family
was excited by the remark, and the
boy was asked to explain himself. He
at once quoted the passage, "And
PhaEaoh put Joseph over his house,"
"There," he said, "that's what I
