THE ElFFEL TOWER.
Meteorologists Declare II to Be More Us.
full Than 1t Seemed.

MeteOrOlOg1gt8 declare II TO BE More Use
full Than 1t Seemed.
French meteorologists have lately
made the agreeable discovery that NJ.
Eiffel's tower will be of far more value
for scientific experiments than was orig
inally imagined. 1t is, of course, un-
necessary to remark that many observa-
tories in this country are situated at a
much greater height above the level Of
the sea, but this is not the point. The
altitude of the structure itself renders it
far more independent of the surround
ing influence than the average observa-
tory, and actually places it in the same
category as those erected on mountains
like the Pic du Midi. This has already
been ascertained from observations made
with view to recording the velocity of
the wind, it having been found that on
the summit of the tower it is greatest
at the very hours when the breeze is
strongest on the highlands Thus, at
places situated no great height above
the sea level the velocity of the wind is
usually noticeable from noon to two p.
m, while it is less perceptible at day
break. On elevated ground, on the
other hand, the wind falls in the middle
of the day, increasing after sunset.
This last phenomenon has been re-
peatedly remarked on the iron pile,
Thoughts 1 may add from personal OBJ
servation-what wind there may be al
most invariably moderates in Paris on
the approach of night This is particu-
larly noticeable in summer, when there
is almost always dead sultry calm at
sunset. Curious to relate, the temper
ature on the top of the Eiffel tower is
also more even than is the case on terra
firma. Thus, while the average differ
ence in Paris in the twenty-four hours
amounts to ten degrees Centigrade, on
the summit of the huge monument there
is only change of five degrees Cent?
grade, precisely the same as that record
ed at the Pic du Midi. In summer the
thermometer on the tower stands lower
and in winter higher than it does on the
ground below. 1t is noteworthy fact
that while some time ago a severe frost
prevailed here, a strong, warm breeze
was blowing above, and that for upward
of three days this pleasant temperature
was enjoyed on the summit of the tower
before Parisians had the benefit of it.
In short those meteorologists who have
had regular opportunities of testing the
resources of NJ. Eiffel's structure are
eloquent in its praise, declaring that it
is simply unique as an observatory

Ny stomach and digestive organs were in
a chronic state of disorder and my liver
and bowels so torpid at times that l had to
resort to the most drastic cathartics, which
would always leave me in delicate condi-

my whole system became deranged. Sick
headaches and violent cramps in my stomach

tons, and no woman suffered from the
weaknesses of our sex as l did. Twas under

health became worse. l reluctantly con-
sented to try Bulls Sarsaparilla The first
dose convinced me it was stronger than any

Long to know, do you? Why do you

sicklier in their faith all the time. Go
out and do something nobly Christian.
Take holy exercise and then examine
yourself, and, instead of Newton's sat
