ALAWYER'SLOVE STORY.

Professor Swing, of Chicago, in an
address at the Action (Ind.) assemblage
last week, approved of judicious novel
reading, and told this anecdOte: 81
heard of Chicago lawyer once whose
wife read two novels to him when he
was sick, and he said to her: / have
been entirely too much wrapped up in
law, and have forgotten almost every
thing else. When get well | shall
lay aside my statutes and write noyel.
aud SO he did, The first chapter told
about nice young man and pretty
young woman. The second told how
they met and fell in love. The third
a very pretty chapter, told how they
took walk together in the evening,and
how they got outside the town because
the sun went down and they couldn't
see the corporation line. 1t was a very
romantic story, but he spoiled it in the
next chapter. After the lovers were
appropriately seated in the, shade of a
spreading oak, although it was night the
young man said: Adelaide, [ can no
longer conceal my feelings / love you
madly, distractedly, wildly, | cannot live
without you. Your image is in my
heart by night and bv day. and with
out you my life is incomplete Now
that was all very pretty, but--would you
believe it?-the lawyer commenced that
maiden's answer to that burning decla-
ration with The other party responded
substantially as follows and that took
away all the romance"

MOVEMENTS OF THUNDER
STORMS.

Thunderstorm have for the last four
wears been the subject of careful observa-
ton both in Bavaria and Wurtemburg,
where the dangers which result from
them, and still more from hail showers,
make the farmers take a keen intetest In
the weather. The number of weather
stations being found insufficient, the
Meteorological office proposed that people
in all districts should undertake to send
in regular reports Immediately after each
storm. For this purpose postal cards were
issued, on which the exact time of first
thunder and lightning observed; wind di-
rection before, during, and after the
storm; rain and hail periods, and further
observations were to be stated. The APP
peal was readily responded to, and there
are at present 279 regular observers who
nave been found prompt in dispatching
their cards, which pass free of charge.
The statistics thus gained show that
thunder storms principally arise i'll locali.
ties Nhich favor local differences of tenn
perature, so that certain places may be
considered their breeding grounds. They
affect most intensely the ridges between
two local centres Ct barometric depression,
and move in long, narrow fields, differ
ent points of which, even if far apart, be
ing visited at exactly the same time. Tie
storms proceed in a direction vertical to
the front of the field, independently of
local winds. By far the greater number
take place between 2 and P. NJ, and
between l and ga. NJ. 1t is somewhat
strange that during the year 1882 both
these maxima were delayed by about an
hour. In one case sheet lightning was
perceived at a distance of 80 miles.
This system of observation was first in
troduced in Bavaria, but was soon adopted
by Wurtemburg.

Organic Weakness

Immediately cured aid full vigor restored. This
afflction-which renders life burden and mar
riage impossible-is the penalty paid by the vic
tim of improper indulgence. Young persons
are too apt to commit excuses from not being
aware of the terrible consequences that may en-
sue. Now who that understands this subject,
will deny that pro-creatiOn is lost sooner by
those falling into improper habits than by the
prudent? Besides being deprived of the pleas
ure of healthy offspring the most serious and de-
structivc symptoms of both mind and body
arise. The system becomes deranged, and phys
zeal and mental functions weakened, loss of pro-
creative power, nervous irritability, dyspepsia,
p&lpif alton of the heart, indigestion, cOnstitu-
tionul debility, wasting of the frame, cough
consumution, decay and death.

In private letter, addressed to the
editor OF Paris newspaper, Nine dc la
Grange, the well-known instructor in
singing, makes this mention of that un-
fortunate young American, the late Miss
Marie Litta: "She was favorite pupil
of mine, and always so studious and at
tentive, and so anxious to develop her
great musical talent, that a most brilliant
future was certainly before her, [ set
her up as a model for all young ladies to
copy from, and were she still among us,

The following was the estimated rail

200; Mexico, 2,100; grand total, 253, 600
miles. These figures are not exact, as it
is impossible to obtain official return with

necessary to use the latest available state
ments and add the probable number OF
miles of road that may have been built
in different countries since the time the
