How Rain is Produced.

Did it ever occur to the reader
that there is Just as much water IN
Tie ar above him on clear, bright
dav as on q cloudy or rainy one
Rain does not come from some
where else, or if it is waited over
YOU by the wind from elsewhere,
the water that was over You is sim
plv waited on to some other place.
What is said above explains this.
Mater is absorbed in the air above
ms, at a certain temperature, and 1t
becomes insensible. Cool that air
by a wind draft Of cooler atmos-
pbere, or by electrical or chemical
Influences, and the moment the ar
becomes cooler it gives up some OF
the watery particles that were IN
sensible or invisible at tue highest
temperature. These small particles
thus gwen ont unite, and when
enough of them cOalesce, Obstruct
the light and show as clouds
Wien enough Of them unite to be
to- heavy to float in the air, they
begin to descend ; pair after paiI
OF them come together until u rain
drop is formed. One Of these mi.
mute rain drops is made mp Of mil.
lions of infinitely small wa'ery par
ticles.
Air passing over the cold tops OF
mountains is cooled down so that II
gives up a good deal of the conceal
cd watery vapor, and hence little
ran falls 10 the region along the
lee side of such mountains. This ID
why so little rain falls in Colorado,
and in other places north and south
of that State. The prevailing winds
blow from the west, and the COO
tops of the Rocky mountains lower
their temperature and thus take out
tn. moisture that would otherwise
fta in rain.

Care Of Animals IN Winter

The American Humane Associa-
ton offers tho following suggcs-
tons relative to fowls. horses and
cattle to persons having these in
charge, in the northern attitudes,
during the winter months.
DO not compel domestic fowls TO
roost in trees. Aside from danger
Of being captured by owls and olh-
er enemies, the s@ayug of the
branches upon which thoy are sit.
ting will prevent them from getting
rest; while in the severely cold
weather, thus exposed, feet and
combs are frozen and the bird Is so
benumbed rs to mako it impossible
for it to be Of much profit on the
farm. Securely sheltered from
wind and storm, and allowed to sit
on a broad rocst, fee, are thus kept
warm, refreshing rest is obtained
and the fowl is much stronger,
healthier and moro profitable to its
owner.
Do not clip horses du'ing the
winter months. With the same
propriety we NIGH, eat the hair
from dos or shear sheep at this
season OF the year. Iac argument
in behalf of the practice is that tie
horse in pcrspirst.on sill dry more
quickly IL the hair is short II Tire
animal is thoroughly blanketed and
kept in a sheltered OF wmn plce,
after being driven. mo danger ic-
sul;s from perspirat.oa, Whatever
the length of ha.r vhi.c thc horse
that has been deprived OF 'ts coat
in the winter tmo suffers perpct-
ually while being exposed to the
cold.
Il is u cruelty inflicted upon
beautiful carnage horses ior the
purpose OF style. Blessed is the
ordinary work horse, in the winter
time, for, however much it may
perspirc, 1t is allowed to carry IFS
full growth OF hair during the cold
weather.
Do not leave cattle to stand SHY
eriug,whilecxtremi'ies often iTeeze,
in the SNOW storms and severe
winds OF winter, when a little time
would suffice TO construct IF boards,
rails or poles, a support upon and
around which may be placed hay,
straw or weeds, thus making a
shelter that may comfortably pro-
tect them. Cattle kept DID idiiIN
warm condition throughout thc win
ter will, as mixers, give q larger
and better yield Of milk, and as
beeves will take on flesh much more
rapidly than If left exposed TO in-
element weather.
Aside from a question Of human.
ty, the more attention and care thai
is bestowed upon animals, with a
view to their comfort, the more
will they be Of service and a source
of profit to their owners. !

Marry u Gentleman.

1t was an excellent advice, ! saw
lately given to young ladies urging
them to marry only gentlemen or not
marry at all. The word was used in
its broadest tluest sense 1t did not
have reference TO those who have fine
raiment and white hands and the
veneering of society polish, merely, to
entitle them to the distinction, but to
those possessed OF true, manly and
noble qualities, however hard their
hands and sunbrowned their faces. "A
true gentleman Is generous and I'M
selfish. He regards another's happi-
ness and welfare as well as his own.
You Will see the trait running through
all his actions. a man who is n bear
at home among his sisters, and dis
courteous to his mother, Is just the
man to avoid when you come to the
great question of yes or no. y man
may be ever so rustic in his early sur
rounding il he is n true gentleman he
will not bring n blush TO your cheek
in any society by his absurd behavior.
There is an instructive politeness in
herent in such IL character, which
everywhere commands respect and
makes its owner pass for what he is
one of natures noblemen. Do not
despair, girls, there are such men still
in the world. You need not all die
old maids Woman at Work.

Plain Truths for Girls who Elirt.

Whatever idea the young girls who
practice street flirting may entertain
OF their seemingly innocent pastime,
it may be set down as n certainty
that when Il respectable young man
desires the acquaintance OF one who
may some day become his wife, he
doesn't 90 out on the street and seek
for acquaintance through a Irritation.
But, on the other hands, the flirt OF
the street, no matter how innocent
and fair her intentions may be, is the
last person he would seek rs his LIES
companion. He desires purity, with
out and above suspicion. The
young lady who engages in this
kind of pastime should bear in mind
that she not only endangers her repu-
tation and leaves stain upon her

stain that will follow her years after
she sees her folly and attempts to
mend her ways.
