The seventeen-year locust has begun its
pilgrimage, and is already making its ap-
pearance in considerable numbers in some
of the southern counties of Ohio. Its first
recorded appearance was in 1895. 1t APP
peared again in 1912, and this time the
great W ON its wings was said to stand for
war. The next visitation occurred in 1929
the next in 1916, and the last in 1868.
In Cincinnati many of the laundries have
attached to them neat baths and roomy
bath rooms for ladies and gentlemen at a
charge of only twenty cents. The laundry
has advantages in furnishing its own hot
water and clean towels. In England cheap
baths are numerous. Every large town has
its public bath houses where plain, clean,
warm bath costs four cents and the highest
priced twelve, and thousands of grimy
workmen patronize them.
A suit has been brought in the Circuit
Court at Madison, Wisconsin, to collect
from an insurance company for damages
done by the great storm of 1878. The
property was insured against lightning, and
the company resist payment on the ground
that it was destroyed by wind. The plaintiff
hopes to prove by the evidence of members
of the Signal Corps that the whirlwind
which destroyed his house was of electrical
origin. a vast amount of insurance is
likely to be affected by the decision of this
case, owing to the heavy losses of properly
during the recent whirlwinds.
Mr.. Labouchere reports that cat the
London Royal Academy there is picture
of a child, and all the critics are requested
to give this child its full name in alluding
to the picture. This is because the papa OF
the child has left his home, and it is
thought if he sees the praises awarded to
the painted semblance of his offspring he
will return and clasp it and its mamma to
his arms. 1 rather like the idea of art
criticism being converted into a sort of adj
vertisement to truant parents to return to
their unhappy families. 1t is at once
original and thoroughly practical.

Mn TESNYsoN has consented to be nom
mated to the position of Lord Rector of
Glasgow University only on condition that
he is not to be considered candidate of
either political party, and that, if elected,
he is not to be expected to appear in Glas-

refused to be nominated by the Liberals !;
now he has refused to be nominated by the
Conservatives, as a party candidate. He
thus takes his stand on purely literary

THE 6ve-cent nickel forms the key to
the whole metrical system. Its diameter
is two centimeters and its weight five
grammes. Hence five niekels placed be-
side one another measure exactly a deci-
meter, and two nickels weighed together
will give exactly dekagramme As every-
body, almost, understands the decimal sys-
tenn, liquid measures may be obtained from
these by calculation, for the kiloliter is
cubic measure, which may be calculated in
the same manner as measure of length.
Thus if a man have five FIVE cent nickels in
his pocket, he carries with him the entire
metric system OF weights and measures.

BURNS prose works, in their latest edi-
ton, are more bulky than his poetry.
The London Times observes that 1.-THE
more Burns letters come to light the
feebler will become the prejudice now
common against his prose style. 1t is true
that his letters are pompous and affected,
and echoes OF the fine language of the time
when he writes with half sincerity and in
what he calls his very best manner But
when he is himself, burning words and
manly eloquence rise to his lips"
