NOT THE Gas MANS SEASON.
Short and Hot Nights Reduce the
IN,

Short and Hot Nights Reduce inc
Consumption in Summer.
! This IS the season OF the year that gas
men bave the least use Tor. The cause OF
1t is because it Is also the season when
other people have the least use for gas.
June, July and August are poor months
for gas company. The nights are short
aud too warm TO light any more Jets thAn
are absolutely necessary. The family sits
out on the yerandah, if they have one,
while the gas burns low or not at all In
the parlOr. Young folks are always very
economical In the matter of gas. In tne
summer they turn 1t down so that 1t Will
not draw bugs and mosquitoes. Then
there are q great many consumers VINO go
out Of town in the hot months. That cuts
down the revenue, for the meters nave
learned that they might as well
lay up While the family is away
from home. The great indignant
public will not any more settle gas bill
that is figured out by the lightning and
truthful calculator down in the cellar.
Then the theatre and the public halls are
not lighted up nearly every night In the
week as they are in the winter.
The least gas is used in July, and the
most in January. 1t is just the reverse
with ice. In September, when the folks
OeRlu 10 COME DOlnt, luS ltNthUO iiNii'
gas begins to Increase More gas stoves
az well as gas Jets are put INTO service.
Gas is wonderfully deceptive in its light
ing power. and many consumer will
swear at it when it is at its best, and be
perfectly satisfied with IL when it is at
It's worst. Few consumers notice
the flame except on rare occasions,
and they could not guess anywhere near
the difference IN candle power between
good gas and bad gas.
The Electric Light Company is also af-
fected by the hot weather. The city has
to be lighted as usual but the lights do
not burn so long. Stores close earlier in
summer than in winter and a good many
lights are shut off at O'Clock that IN
cooler months burn until 10 O'Clock. When
the cost of the incandescent system OF
electric lighting is reduced there will be
a great change in the method of lighting
buildings OF all kinds.

MIGRATION IN NORWAY.
One of the Great wonders OF the
Natural World.

Once in about every twenty-five years
Norway and Sweden are the scenes OF a
migration which is one of the wonders OF
the natural world. The participants in
this movement are tiny rat.like creatures
called popularity Jennings and scienti-
fically Myodes lemmus. The lemming
is rot more than six inches long, includ-
ing a half inch tail, and individually is
no more interesting than a thousand
other animals, but collectively it chal-
lenges attention.
II lives ordinarily among the peat
mosses of mountains, and, although the
principal food of all the predaceous ami
mails of that region, it continues to in
crease so rapidly in numbers that by the
time the migratory movement takes
place the mountains fairly swan with its
congregated families. From near and
far the Jennings come. led by restless
impulse, and after forming an immense
army on some great plateau start east or
west, as the case may be. and in an
undertaking line march forward. Hills,
valleys, lakes, rivers are crossed, with
an utter disregard to the havoc made in
their ranks by death.
It is q sad time for the farmer, for
when the living torrent pours over g
cultivated section it spreads and fingers
till every estable is gone. in the mean
time bringing forth young in great mum
here and with unusual rapidity, so that
despite all the numerous causes OF de
struction that follow or await 1t, th'

terrible army actually increases In size
during its onward march. Besides the
| rivers and lakes, which swallow up
great multitudes, q prolific source OF
death is found in the various animals of
the country. Carnivorous beasts and
birds. such as wolves, foxes, wild cats,
the various members of the weasel
| family, eagles, hawks, and owls follow
the moving army with wild cries and in
satiable gluttony. This is quite natural,
perhaps, but what isextraordinary many
herbivorous animals seem to be driven
to fury by the invasion of the little
creatures, and deserving their ordinary
food rush among the Jennings, and not
only st amp them to death, but use their
teeth for the same purpose, and even
eat the flesh. Reindeer and COWS are
prominent in this deadly employ
while man, with his household pets, the
cat aad]the dog, exerts himself in the
sanedestructive work.
Still the stream pours on, never devil
atng from the course first laid out, hll'
ing the air with vile odors and making
the earth loathsome. For three years
this terrible scourge afflicts the land, re-
sisting all efforts to turn it or conquer
it. and covering with desolation every
spot it visits, until at last the Atlantic
Ocean or the Gulf of Bothnia interposes
it's impossible waters. Does it then
turn back? No. With the same fright
full disregard of consequences which has
characterized the infatuated creature
from the outset, the whole army. with
eager haste, plunge iuto the waves, and
there ends the migration.
What is the cause of this extraordi-
nary fact? Nobody knows. The most
plausible theory yet advanced says that
the vast increase in numbers of the lem.
ming in its mountain home creates a
scarcity of food. Hunger arouses the
desire to seek for food elsewhere, and
movement once made, a long dormant
instinct of migration, which most ant
mails possess, forces it to continue its on.
ward march with unreasonipg and fatal
per istency. CLAUS Magnus and some
other writers have suggested that the
Jennings are scourge raned down
from heaven, but there are several fairly
good reasons for not accepting this
theory. Bazaar.
