After great battles. violent rain
storms are of very general o currence.
This Is due, it is now known, to the
agitation produced in the ar by the
violent exi losions f cannon and mus
kerry. The de,onations attract clouds.
and at length comes t e grateful rain to
dissipate the smoke of the battle,
soothe the agony of the wounded and
dying. Acting upon tGis lint, invent
ors have been at work u, the task of
making machines which would break
up seasons Of drought Great ares and
explosions of gunrowlcr have been
suggested. but the cost would be too
great for the small area benefited by
the shower that would follow. In us.
tra!ia, q new rain-producing machine
is a1out to be tested. 1t is simply q
balloon which carries up into the air q
heavy charge of dynamite. At n suffi-
cent distance above the earth the dyna-
mite is exploded by an lecir,c current
that passes through the wire ommuni-
eating with the earth. This ma hine
will not be expensive, and should it
succeed in treaking up droughts, the
human ra G W II be vastly benefited. 1t
wi be the first step enablngus to con-
tlol the amount OF mo stu we get
from the heavens Should we succeed
in riddlng any portion OF our planet Of
dry spells hurtful TO vegeta ion. we
would soon find means of dissipating
Clouds which We're dis, .ensing too much
rain. The fertility of the earth would
be quadruple if man cnuld at wi pro-
duce rainy and dry weather. and who

not in time have rs complete command

The Four.Leayed Clover.

There are several pretty superstitions
connected with the four-leaved clover.
1t is an emblem of good luck. and she
is fortunate lass who can pluck it and
put it inside her shoe without being
seen BY any one. The charm of the
other girl, the true lovers rival. will be
unavailing, charm she never so wisely.
She should wish while she is doing 1t,
and if the whole ceremony is unob-
served and the fair operator refrains
from speaking or looking behind her
she will get her wish, although it may
be to be Pope OF Rome. She may also
try the trick '.He loves me, loves me
not" with perfect faith in the result.
She may pull it apart with some one.
as wishbone is separated, with
the happiest consequences. or she
may think of her lover when she
plucks it and he will not for
get her as long rs she preserves
it. If she is generous she will give it
away and her good luck with it. But
let her beware of a fve-leaved clover.
So much more potent is evil fortune
than the good that one of the i'll omened
variations from the normal condition
of clover leaves will neutralize fifty OF
the lucky ones. Last and worst. if she
finds a six-leaved clover she will die an

Needle.WOmen In London.

How many women there are in the
Fast End who live by the needle I do
not know. Mrs. Heckford told me
yesterday that from where we were
standing you could go east, west, north
and south and in almost every house
that you pass you would find at least
according to the last census, more than
q quarter of million women were re-
turned as making their livelihood by
that means-an army of working
women more numerous than any other
class, excepting those engaged in do
mestic service. The mOre's the pity
that their lot should be SO hard. In
face of general and most indisp ltable
improvement in the condition of labor,
it would seem incredible. if it were not
only too horribly true, that the condi-
ton of the needle-woman is even worse
than it was when the ''Song of the
Shirt stirred the whole nations
heart. That song OF misery and
woe might have been composed
yesterday and every word of it might
be applied to the needle women, thou
sands of whom are crowded together
in that solid block of m sery, the CEN
tire of the East End. If in Hood's time
the needle.women were chastised with
whips, they are to-day chastised with
scorpions. Should there be any doubt
that this is so, let them take the train
from Stepney to Bow Road. and plunge
into the endless mass of low red-roofed
houses which spread to the right and
left as far as the eye can reach, and
miles further down to the river banks.
In most of these miserable abodes the
needle-women are at work. Any time,
any season will do; they know no hoi-
day. except that involuntary one when
tn re is no work to be had, and when
grim death itself is their g est, death
of starvation. But it is perhaps better
to 60 on gray wintry day, Tor when

An Uuappreciated Tree.

In the vicinity of most Western
cities and villages are clusters of trees
that are generally considered as vegeta-
bic nuisances. They are silver poplars,
and are SO called because one side OF
the leaf is nearly white. Objection is
made to these trees because so many
sprouts spring up from tho roots when
they are disturbed in any way. So far
as is known no attempts have rs yet
been made in this country to utilize
these trees for any other purpose than
for producing shade. A Canadian,
however. has been experimenting with
them, and has ascertained, to- his own
satisfaction, that they are very valua-
bic. He states that the wood makes ex-
cellent timber and boards, and that Il
ranks next to maple as fuel. It pro-
duces very good charcoal. The tree
possesses great advantages in its quick
growth. its hardness and the ease with
which it is propogated. Atree planted
by him twenty years previously yielded
four cords of firewood. He propagates il
by means Of cuttings from the last grown
wood, cut foot long. from above bud
to just below one, and thrust into the
ground about nine inches. He plants
them four feet apart each way, and cul-
tivates them for two years, SO that the
ground is kept free from grass and
weeds, and the roots are not disturbed
They then shade the soil so that further
cultivation is unnecessary. Planted In
this way the trees become tall and
single stemmed. In ten years time
they afford excellent fuel, and in cut
ting them down sprouts about tho
stumps will take their places. There Is
some objection to having q grove Of
silver poplars on the side Of . field that
is under cultivation, a. the plow will
cut off many roots and cause sprouts
to roots to appear. He recommends
the trees for our Northwestern States
and Territories as well as for the west
ern portion of Canada. He states, as the
result of his observations. that the tree
will make three times the growth Ia 0
given number of years that is attained
by hardwood tree that is ordinarily
cultivated. The cuttings have only q
nominal value and are almost certain
to live and grow in any kind Of soil.
The cost of cultivation in the manner
he suggests is trifiing. For protection
against the wind he considers silver
poplars as superior to any trees planted
for that purpose. Springfield (IH.)

A man whose hair and whiskers were

"Oh! l amt loony." replied the man.
"But what can you want o. q mile
and a half of this pipe, costing you
many hundred dollars?"
"See here" replied the other, as he

"Tm a widower"
"Yes."
I'm thinking of taking a second
wife. She dotes on front yard. I've
got the yard. She dotes on lawn orna-
ments. I've been around pricing stone
dogs, cast-irou deer and terra-cotta
rabbits till you can't rest. She dotes
on fountains. That's why 1 want the
pipe"
but why so much of it?"
because I've got to run the pipe to
a spring on hill mile and a hall

When he had explained how much

couldn't get fountain enough to dam

Wont squirt foot high?"

''Well, no fountain. no marriage.
She's sot on that. I'll go back and
offer to till the yard with decoy ducks
and conch-shells, and put stained glass
windows in the horse barn, but
reckon the match is off. I've offered
to get force-pump and hire a coot by
the year to work it, but she says Il
wouldn't be picturesque. Might build
