Mr.. Clement Ley, the English meteor
ologlSt reports Il recent incident of
British weather which most strikingly il
Illustrates the value of clouds as storm
signals. He states in Nature that recent
~ a storm center passed over Scotland
with progressive velocity of forty-fiye
miles per hour, and indications of its
progress were afforded by cloud obser-
vatlons at a distance of more than 800
miles in advance of the center, the We
loclty of propagation being supposed
uniform" The significance of this fact
in It's bearing upon the British weather
forecasts is enhanced by the recent sig
nal failure of the London Meteorological
Otilce to obtain timely intimation by
means of its barometric and other in
strumental observations of the disastrous
Atlantic cyclone which lately visited En-
gland. This storm extended over wide
area, sweeping away a bridge on the
Great Western Railway and damaging
many buildings. So that the London
Times, two days afterward said: The
deluge which has overwhelmed the Brit
ish Isles and sent the Thames surging over
its banks causes the curious to consult
more critically than usual the descrip-
tons or vaccinations of the weather
which we publish daily" If the British
meteorolOgists can get the barometcrs to
give timely warnings of the hurricanes
which sometimes rush upon their coasts,
from the Central Atlantic with a pro-
gressive velocity of more than sixty
miles an hour they can do more with
th a IDvpta1snta1Tr SlIporigI h.,
has ever been done before. Though its
montions are invaluable they can never
be relied on for promptneSs and timeli-
ness. But the clouds which invariably
precede a cyclonic depression, and often
precede the vortex by several hundred
miles, are both timely and trustworthy
monitors, as in the case reported this
month by Mr. Ley. During the slow
passage of last Septembcr's hurricane
over the West Indies its approach was
indicated at Cardenas, according to u
report published in the Signal ,Serrice
RecieW, by 'small clouds moving
rapidly along the horizon over thirty
hours before its center crossed the meri-
dian of this place, and the Havana re-
cords evidently show that that the cloud
and rain indications announced the hur-
ricane's advance at least sixteen hours
before its arrival on the meridian of
HAVANA. Had these places been in the
storms central track, and hence ex-
posed to its greatest force. they would
probably have had still earlier and more
emphatic cloud indications of its APP
proach. The timidity with which me-
teorologists make storm predictions
based solely on cloud and rain indica-
tons is eXcusable in the present very de-
fective system of observing and report
ing these aqueous metcors. But if they
We're properly observed and telegraph
cally reported they would generally
afford the data necessary for reliable
forecasts, even when the barometric and
other instrumental data taken alone
We're inconclusiyc.-N T. Hcrald.

De Brazza, the American Explorer.

Truth thus describes Lieutenant de
Brazza, SANKEY'S rival in the explora-
tian of Congo: His is an Italian and
has very remarkable head. TO the
front view of his face, Euclid's dcfni-
ton of a line Qcngth without brcadth)
is applicable. There are, however, q
pair of cleaning, intensely keen black
eyes, the ironcal expression of which
must have been calling to Stanley. As
to the profile, it is made up of violent
curves. The forehead is bumpy and
strongly modelled. Avery high-bridged
nose (higher than the Duke of Yelling
tons, but not so abruptly outlined,) dips
at the end in rounded point, 50 far
down rs to be almost horizontal with the
mouth. The chin advances in another
strong curve. Brazza's head is Florin-
tine, In Leonardos picture of The Last
Supper" there is such head-and it is
upon the shoulders of one who betrayed

Scorchiug irony.

Hetty did not reply at once; she
blushed painfully.
Not much; some money! she said
finally, as her questioner pressed her.
Sarah Grant was quick to think.
''Hetty Northam," she said, slowly,
"did you give up your Christmas for us
girls? And | said hated you-and you
heard men'
''Why. I've had q lovely Christmas;
| wanted to do it, said Hetty, Simply:
Il had things enough
Just at this juncture the teacher APP
peared in the doorway. and noting some
unusual stir, hastily inquired the cause.
Sarah Grant was too deeply buried
amid Hetty' rutfies to explain. and some
body else had to tell the story.
Katie COIN afterwards asserted shat
there were tears in Mr. Bacon's eyes IS
he put his hand on Hetty's head and
stroked her soft curls, and nobody else
could see clearly enough ut the time to
contradict her.
True to nature, Sarah Grant could not
let the affair end without putting in u
word;
"Mr. Bacon, Hetty Northam is an
angel!'' To which he answered.:
She has given good for evil, Sarah,
and that is more than angelic; it is
Christlike, -GOide1e Rule.

The SalOOn-Keeper'S Joke.

A few weeks ago a Detroit saloon
keeper got hold of the fact that certain
customer of his had invested in q lottery
ticket, and on the night of the drawing
the saloon was filled with crowd to en-
Joy a joke which the saloonist was to let
loose on his man. The man with the
ticket dropped in at the usual hour for
his beer, and while drinking it he heard
the saloon-keeper remark thatticket No.
s., 256 had drawn $4,000.
''How do you know that?" was quickly
asked
"Well, also hold couple of tickets,
and friend of mine in Chicago has tele-
graphed me the winning numbers"
Lets see the telegram
1t was produced. 1t had been speci-
ally prepared for the occasion and APP
peared genuine.
l hold that very ticket" gasped the
citizen as he produced his wallet.
Mo-
''Here it is!''
Congratulations We're in order, and
only a hint was needed to bring an order
for beer and cigars without limit. At
the end of a grand hurrah the saloonist
presented bill for $l3.25, and was met
with the reply:
''See you later-too excited to make
change tonight"
Yesterday the man of beer went to a
justice to see about suing the bill and
learned that his debtor was in Colorado.
Just how much he made out of the Joke
can be figured until he gets over kick
inc himself.-DetrOU Free Press.

+ was in the north of China. that we
first saw the thrashing- floor of the East
and of the Bible. When we We're travel
ing to some out-stations in Mantchuria.
the road bounded on both sides by end
less fields of gigantic millet, there would
come farmer house and farm-yard, or
a small hamlet, and on the skirt of it,
the trodden spot of ground hard and
smooth as stone. But it was not till
some weeks later, as we were Journey
ing slowly up to Pekin. and the harvest
was now gathered, that we saw it in use.
The grain was laid on the floor. and a
pair of oxen were driven leisurclv over
the ears, treading out the corn. Another
form of thrashing was the stone roller.
which was drawn over the ears by oxen or
mules; and there was another still, where
a flat board furnished with some pro-
jections, was drawn in the same way.
the driver or children, perhaps, sitting on
the board to lend it additional weight.
Sometimes the grain was piled up in a
large heap in the center of the floor,
unsifted and then men with the winnOw-
ing shovel (the Bible FAM would toss the
basket, from which the man who held it
flung up the corn, and the wind carrying
the chat away filled the air with dust.
One Bible phrase after another was re-
called to us. 1t was easy to see how the
Philistines could rob the thrashing floors
at keilah, those open spaces in the field
on which the absence of any dread of
rain induced the farmers to pile up their
wealth of grain; or how the open floor,
open to the sky and smooth, became the
natural place to test the dew upon
Gideon's fleece while all the rest of the
ground was dry; or how, when the two
kings, Ahab, of Israel, and Jehoshaphat,
of Judah, summoned the prophet, the
place to set the royal thrones was on the
smooth and empty thrashing floor Just
before the gate of Samaria; or how no
better place than this could be found on
which to build the altar that David raised
when he had purchased the site of the
temple from Araunah, the Jebusite, and
found in the thrashing instruments-the
wooden fans and boards and oxen poles
the wood for the sacrifice. 1t would
be easy for the oxen TO stop in the midst
of the abundance they were treading out
and eat; and the merciful Jewish law
provided that they should eat if they
would; there should be no muzzling of
them; 'thou shalt not muzzle the OK
when he treadeth on the corn. = Good
