ABOUT WHiRl WINDS.

A Theory That They Are Caused by the
Rising of Heated Air from the Ground.
In tho Naturalist in Nicaragua"
Mr. Belt has the following on the orr
gin of whirlwlnds and cyclones: Il
am confident that study of the small
er eddies of air is the proper way to
approach the difficult question of the
origin of cyclones" The movements
of these small whirlingmasses may be
observed from the outside. and their
progress traced from the incipient
stage to that of dissolution. In the
beginning of n whirlwind there is a
movement near the surface of the
ground of light particles of dust to-
ward center attended or occasioned
by rotary motion of tho air. This
quickly rises into a whirling column
from fifty to q hundred feet or more in
height. On the dry, hot plains of Cen
trail and South America, and of Aus.
tralia, this phenomenon is of frequent
occurrence, and is not usual in our
temperate latitudes In summer The
wh:rling columns, according 10 Mr.
Belt, differ in diameter from few feet
to many miles, and his opinion is that
'there is a complete graduation from
the little dust eddies, through larger
whirlwinds and tornadoes. to the
awful typhoons and cy clones of China
and the West Indies"
In the small whirlwinds which occur
over the land, there is no evidence of
the condensation of vapor occurring
IN dry air. But where the atmosphere
is charged with humidity, as over
tropical seas. the condensation is
great. The notion. therefore, that
whirlwinds and tornadoes originate in
sudden condensation Mr.. Belt thinks
not well founded, the phenomenon
being an accident rather than cause
of the movement Nor is the theory
q satisfac ory one that the meeting of
conflicting currents of air and conse-
quent condensation give rise to the
phenomenon. Attention is directed
to the fact that many terrible whirl-
winds are dry, and run their course
without producing rain or cloud. They
originate at or very near the surface
of the ground. where the air becomes
intensely heated. The quivering of
the air over hot ground foreshadows
the whirlwind as mirage does the
simeon. and sultry heat and oppress-
i've calm do the hurricane. In the
stratum of heated air next the ground
resides the energy which produces the
whirlwind. That this. in many in
stances. is prevented from rising has
been proved by numerous observa-
tions. At last the upward tendency
becomes so strong that it breaks
through the everything heavier air. and
there occurs an upward discharge, fol-
lowed by all the phenomena of whirl'
winds.

PAPER BRACELETS.
Novelties In Ball Programmes and Menus
for the Coming Season.

Novelties every year.
This refers more to the stationer's
trade than to any other in the world.
not even excepting the milliner's art
or the modiste's profession. Upon
novelties alone do the stationers flour
ish. This year the styles vary more
than ever from the efforts of former
years
Here are few of them:
A novel ball programme consists of
q neat, thin cardboard band, one and
one-half inches in width. edged with
gold. which enclrcles the wrist like
bracelet, and is easily closed and un-
closed by means of the thin silkcn
cord which slspends the pencil.
Dances is inscribed on the ov ,rlap-
ping flap. The date and residence be-
low. and the dances in rotation all
around, with space left for the gentle
man to write his name or initials.
These novel "brace'ot programme"
can be had in white, pale blue or
pink. and stamped to order at short
notice.
This is another. tits n menu. It's
also q bracelet. and is fastened by a
dain,y-colored ribbon bow after the
menu is stamped or written and passes
over the folded table napkin. These
are in whi or delicate tinted card
and are pretty and novel. They can be
stamped with crest if required.
close TO the bow. where IN 'nu" is
written in gold.
And here are other novelties in the
same line. There are some French
menus, with pen-and-ink sketches
which are uncommon and consist OF
sets of six. issued fresh every month.
Among the subjects are scenes at race
meetings, visitors to art galleries,
fashionably attired female figures
stepping out OF largo broken egg
in various positions. others caught in
the rain. etc.. all ariistically and
quantity drawn. Two Sits are cut In
