Why They Staid Away.

I'm In a. Balloon

To some extent rain retards upward
progress, but have made q number Of
asccnsions in the face Of storms. writes
Prof. King in the Nashville American.
Snow. however. is much more Of an
obstacle, and in short time will &C.
cumulate upon the top OF the balloon
sufficiently to drive 1t to the earth.
The clouds are sometimes as much az
three thousand feet from top to bottom
when the sky is entirely overcast.
Often even above such a body OF
cloud may be seen smaller clouds with
clear spaces in between. When with
in one Of these spaces the sensation is
that of being in vault. With the
solid, snowy clouds below you and the
smaller clouds below you being by
perspective brought close around, 1t
appears as II you were in cavern.
have been above the clouds during
snow-storm. and the light OF the moon
shining SO brightly through the rarifi-
ed air produced an illumination rather
supernatural. I have very frequently
passed through frozen clouds. This is
where vapor has fallen below the freez-
ing point and been CONCEALED into a
substance resembling -four in appear
ance. This falls, and in doing SO
reaches higher temperature, where
the small particles are aggregated into
flakes Of SNOW
Some clouds, however, present very
much the appearance Of a vail, aud
objects on the earth can be distinctly
discerned from position above them.
have never known Of an instance
In which balloon was hit by light
ming. The thunder does not make a
perceptibly greater noise than when
you are on the ground. The sound
proceeds from the upper layers Of
clouds, as does also the rain; and in
many cases, when the lower strata ap-
pears very violent, perfect quiet there
reigns, except for such motion as is
produced by the rain falling through
from above. The upper currents are
the most active, and cyclone or o
wild storm is perhaps produced accor.
ding as those upper currents descend
to remain above the earth.

1t Cannot Last Forever.

I've word of comfort for you
Who on life's rugged road
Are toiling meath the burden
OF heavy, hopeless load.
1t will make your heart grow lighter,
Whatever be your wrong,
And give you strength to bear it
II YOU take these words along,
And say when clouds of darkness
Around your pathway hover,
THE sun is shining just beyond,
II cannot last forever"
just try them when you're wearied
BY each petty care and strife,
BY each little aggravation
OF your common daily life.
When angry words are rising
That you can scarcely smother,
And everything seems twisted up"
And tied in knots TO bother,
You'll find these words are like knife,
Each twisted knot to sever;
Then straighten out each tangle with,

Or If some great disaster
Like cyclone sweep your sky,
And stunned and helpless with the shock
Beneath the wreck you lie,
Remember that no storm comes
But has clearing day;
The darkest night morning,
An end the longest way;
Then take those words to cheer you,
You'll find them like lever
To raise your sinking spirits up,
sit cannot last forever"

The Presidents Exchange Reader.

The official at the White House who
does the presidents newspaper read
Ing and clipping is Benjamin Mont
gomery, the Geographic secretary. He
is one of the most valuable officers of
the force, as in addition to his knowl-
edge of telegraphy. he possesses a
wonderful acquaintance with men and
measures, and is singularly active in
clerical work. He now attends to q
duty that was formerly performed by
Col. Lamont, namely, perusing the
newspapers of the country and trans
ferrlng to a scrap-book all articles re-
garded as worthy of the presidents
consideration, either because of their
praise or criticism of his administra-
tion.-New York World.

What We Seem to Lack,

When Washington was president,
As cold as any icicle,
He never on railroad went
And never rode bicycle.
He read by no electric lamp.
Nor heard about the Yellowstone,
He never licked q postage stamp,
And never saw q telephone.
His trousers ended at the knees,
BY wire he could not send dispatch,
He filled his lamp with whale oil grease,
And never had a match to scratch.
But in these days it's come to pass,
All work is with such dashing done
We've all those things; but then, alas
We seem to have no Washington.

A vegetable crop that is gathered
green draws but little fertility from the
soil.
OF all fertilizers ground bone is the
best and most durable where general
crops are grown, but fertilizers should
be veried or consist OF all the elements
required for crop.
Dried, ground fish is an excellent
fertilizer, and is cheap compared with
the advantages to be derived from its
use. For corn it is excellent, and it
may also be used literally on garden
