THE WEATHER PROPHET.

Bill Jones is weather prophet. If it rains he Il
By foretelling coming sunshine and sky of
ultra blue;
And if pleasant weather offers, sage advice he
always profers;
And If you refuse to take it, the result, he
swears, you'll rue.
He can talk on squall or blizzard with the
knowledge of a wizard,
Or describe gale or cyclone, a tornado or
typhoon,
Or symbol, sign or warning seen at night or in
In weathercock or planet, in fog or in the
moon.
Ee knows all about cloud strata, and consults
details and data
OF thermometers, hygrometers, barometers and
tides;
Can dilate on sou west breezes, peacccks' yells
and kittens sneezes.
lsoehronical phenomina, and many things
BE blends science and tradition. and his every
LIS embodied in lingo that would scare a Hot
tentot;
And of cirrus, cirro-stratus, halos, nimbi appar-
atus
And the like he's bound to bore you, whether
it be cold or hot.
Like most prophets. he's pragmstic; and his
style is quite emphatic
When he ridicules the weather lore of ordi-
nary folk,
To inspire a little wonder he'll explain the
cause of thunder,
And he'll lie like Ananias, though he cannot
take joke
Though the bosts of Reputation, he is still upon
People listen to him patiently and let him try
again,
They have not decided whether it's his ill-luck
or the weather,
But the frost destroys his cabbage plants and he
gets caught in rain.

Mems Dress Reform.

Dress reform for men would be good
cry to take up, for there is no doubt that
the tables could be turned on the men on
the question of summer clothing. The
weight of mans clothing in summer is
greater than that of woman. This was
decided some time ago by the actual weigh
ing of clothing and the woman's weighed
three pounds and nine ounces, while the
mans weighed eight pounds and ten
ounces. The editor of certain daily
newspaper cries out in distress: "a tailor
who is ingenious enough to invent
scheme for summer clothing for men which
will leave out the starched shirt, and still
be neat and becoming, will merit the
praise of many sufferers and ought to make
fortune"
Women are the envy of men in hot
weather, on account of the lightness and
coolness of their clothing. The greatest
anathema is directed against the cotton
shirt, and now that it is somewhat the
style to wear wooden shirt in summer for
undress comfort, there IS plenty of evidence
that the WOODEN garment is preferred to the
cotton. A correspondent writes: For
over twenty years | have worn the ordi-
nary loose flannel shirts for comfort and
for health linen dicky, collar and cuffs
for weak-minded concession to appear
ances, and never an undershirt. Same in
winter as in summer. Results: Never a
serious cold or illness, and ability to do
ten-mile average walk daily all the year
round" The protest against cotton cloth
ing for men has taken scientific form in
the hands of DIR. Jaeger, and a consider
able revolution has set in toward wooden
clothing in place of it.-Good Housekeeping

Imported Animals.

Importing an animal does not necessa-
rily signify that it is a good one. Other
countries have poor stock as well as this.
But it is true that large majority of
American importers pride themselves on
the quality of the animals they import,
and they buy only the best they can find.
There are those, however, who buy any
thing they can get, so that it is registered
"purely Bred" and through such have
come into the country deal of scallywag
stuff, some of which is sold to the ignorant
and careless at high prices, while others
are offered as "the best" but at prices SO
low as to create the impression that legiti-
mate dealers are but little short of ex-
tortioners. The truth is that in late years
the margins of profit to importers have
been growing narrower, and naturally so,
for the competition which depresses prices
here serves to advance them on the other
side. This is particularly true of horses,
and we are well convinced that reliable
importers of these animals are not demand
ing greater profits than are justified by
capital invested, the risks of the business
and the quality of their stock. If an i'm
ported animal of any kind is offered at a
price greatly below that of well-known
and reliable dealers, we should regard the
party making the offer with suspicion, and
not conclude that dealers with regulations
to sustain were trying to reap unreason-
able profits.-Fdym and Stock Home.

Pope Leo's Abstemious Life.

Like Napoleon, Leo XIII. does great
deal of work and takes very little sleep.
He rises at in summer and in winter.
His toilet occupies half hour, after
which he passes an hour in prayer and
meditation as preparation for mass, which
he says every day in one of the private
chapels of the Vatican. He officiates at
the altar with exemplary devotion, and
there is an exceeding grace in all his
movements, whether in the sanctuary, in
the garden, in his library or when holding
public audience. At o'clock the Pope
takes his cafe au lait and roll. Leo
XIII. is one of the most abstemious of men
and the entire expenses of his table do not
average more than 81 day the whole
year round. 1t must be remembered that
the Pope always takes his meals alone

The Origin of the Shot Tower.

There was once mechanic at Bristol,
England, who had queer dream. Watts
was his name, and he was by trade shot
maker The making of the little leaden
pellets was then slow, laborious, and, con-
sequently, costly process. Watts had to
take great bars of lead ard pound them
out into sheets of thickness about equal
to the diameter of the shot he desired to
make. Then he cut the sheets into little
cubes, which he placed in a revolving
barrel or box and rolled until the edges
wore off from the constant friction and the
little cubes became spheroids.
Watts had often racked his brain trying
to devise a better scheme, but in vain.
Finally, after an evening spent with some
jolly companions at the ale-house, he went
home and turned into bed. He soon fell
into deep slumber, but the liquor evil
IDENTIFY did not agree with him, for he had
a bad dream. He thought he was out again
with the sboys." They were all trying to
find their way home, when it began to rain
shot, Beautiful globules of lead, polished
and shining, fell in torrent, and COM
PEELED him and his bibulous companions to
draw their heavy limbs to a place of shell
ter.
In the morning, when Watts arose, he
remembered the dream. He thought about
it all day, and wondered what shape molten
lead would take in falling a distance
through the air. At last, when he could
rest no longer, he carried ladleful of the
hot metal up into the steeple of the Church
of St. Mary of Radcliffe, and dropped it
into the moat below. Descending, he
took from the bottom of the shallow
] pool several handfuls of perfect shot,

TWO KINDS OF RESIN.
Those that Were Used by the Ancient
Egyptians.

Among the minor incidents Of recent ex-
plorations in Egypt is the unearthing of
two resins which were not previously
known to have been included in the ma
terra medica of the ancient Egyptians.
The first Of these was found in a small lar
that was disinterredin perfect state from
heap of rubbish among the ruins of
Naucratia, the site of Greek colony, and
attributed to the sixth century B. C.
This resin, of which there was about eight
ounces, was opaque and of brown color
on the surface, but underneath was partly
of clear golden yellow color and partly
of darker tint, though still transparent.
When chewed it softened in the mouth
and tasted like mastic, but had also the
peculiar flavor of Chan turpentine and
gave off the elemi or fennel-like odor of
that drug when rubbed between the
fingers. 1t also resembled Chan turpen-
tine, but was not mastic, in solubility in
alcohol. For these and other considera-
tions this ancient resin has been pro-
| nounced by Mr.. Holmes, the curator to the
museum of the Pharmaceutical Society, to
be identical with Chan turpentine,
although there does not appear to have
beoa any previous evidence that the drug
was known to the ancient Egyptians. The
earliest extant mention of Chan
turpentine is by Theophrastus, who lived
from $40 to 2S5 B. c. The discovery
of this pot, therefore, if the Identification
be correct, carries the history of the drug
back another two centuries. The second
| resin, which has also been reported on by
Mr.. Holmes, occurs on a mummy cloth
found in cemetery, in the Fayum prov
ince of Lower Egypt, and supposed to date
from the second century. When burnt it
gave off vapors of benzoic acid, with the
vanilla odor peculiar to Siam benzoin.
There is no direct evidence that benzoin
was known to the ancient Egyptians, but
| lignum aloes, which is frequently men,
toned together with it in later records,
was known to the Jews in the time of Sol
ONION, and it may be that benzoin is iden-
teal with an Indian frankincense men,
toned by Dioscorides But Mr.. Holmes
seems to favor the identification of benzoin
with the onyx or onycha of the ancients,
partly on account Of the resemblance OF
the tint and opacity of the white tears OF
benzoin to the human finger nail At any
rate, in Ecclesiasticus, wisdom is compared
to the pleasant odor yielded by galbanum,
onyx and sweet storax," but il is quite GER
tain that the opercula of certain shell-fsh
with which onycha has generally been
identified, cannot be said either to possess
a sweet odor, or to give off fragrance while
