TO KEEP THE HOUSE COOL
Use Gas Stove and Let as Little sunlight
as Possible In.

Use "a Gas Stove and Let as Little Sunlight
as Possible In.
Ladies' Home Journal.
Much OF the interior heat is supplied our
houses 1loae oy tn the kitchen range, which Bridget
Keeps red-hot even in the "dog-days.n Pre-
vent this by the use of one of those wonder
fully perfected gas-stoves on which any woman
OF average intelligence can fry, roast, broil
and bake to entire satisfaction. 1t is more
economical than Il coal fire, makes no dust
and conveys no heat to any part of the house
outside OF the kitchen. The one drawback is
the want of hot-water supply for the bath
room, but this, with care and system, NAV be
overcome to degree, for kettle always full
OF water can be kept on the gas-stoye all day
For wash'day and ironing-day clever man
ager in small family can make the gas-stoye
q success.
Having got rid of the inside heat, all rooms
not IN use should be shut up tight. l mean
this literally. Not only should the shutters
and windows be closed, but the blinds must
be lowered to exclude every ray of light and
the doors locked to prevent the running In
and out of the children, who thus admit waves
OF heated air. We all know that light and hot
ar lmpart heat to whatever they touch, there
lore this effort to keep out these agents. but it
would be neither wise nor practicable to her
metically seal all the rooms of a house. One
room at least can be so treated-the parlor-
ana also the dining-room between meals. The
room selected should be closed early In the
morning, while the air has some freshness and
before the sun strikes the windows; then it
should not be opened until late in the after
noon.
Every house should have an accessible trap
door In its roof, and when this is left open, a
current OF heated air mast rise through it and
make general draught over all the house If
you have not this, you will find it worth the
expense to cut "transom window'' in the hall
above the last flight of stairs, choosing a
north wall, If possible, and as high up as
may be.
Awnings should be lightin color, and should
be at all windows and doors except those to
the north. They are great helps in keeping
out glare and reflected lights, but as they
sometimes keep out breezes as well, they
raised and lowered.
After sundown, plentiful watering of your
street and pavement, and of all the garden YOU
possess, will cool the air wonderfully for your
nights sleep.

A oHILp,s LAuGHrER.

All the bells of heaven may ring, ft
All the birds of heaven may sing,
All the wells on earth may spring,
All the winds on earth may bring
All sweet sounds together;
Sweeter far than oil things heard.
Hand of harper, tone of bird,
Sound of woods at sundown stirred,
Yelling water's winsome word,
Wind in warm wan weather.
One thing yet there is that none
Hearing ere Its chimes be done
Knows not we'll the sweetest one
Heard of men beneath the sun,
Hoped in heaven hereafter;
Soft and strong and loud and light,
Very sound of very light
Heard from the mornings rosiest height,
When the soul of all delight
Fills child's clear laughter
Golden bells of welcome rolled
Never forth such notes, nor told
Hours 30 blithe in tones so bold
AS the radiant mouth of gold
Here that rings forth heaven.
If the gold-crested when
Were nightlngale-whyt then
Something seen and heard of men
Might be half as sweet as when
Laughs child of seven.

THE SIGNS THAT FAIL.

Hoot Owls and Wild Geese Come in Con.
tact in Weather Predictions This Year
The Old Time Weather Bureau-That to
Come To-Day.
During much of the time of the last %
months most people have been in the habit
of indulging in uncharitable reflections on
the Weather Bureau, but ii they take the
trouble to inquire into their premises for a
Few minutes they will be more lenient. The
de oresting OF the country has upset all cal
culations. and we can no longer safely give
the warning:
When the peacock loudly bawls,
Then look out for rain and squall7.
Even pigs, infalli0le barometers in olden
time, no longer squeal with their jealous
regularity to indicate to their owners
changes of weather.
Forty years ago nearly all farmers still re-
tanned portion of primitive instinct and
could tell by the turning of leaves, tramp
ing of snow" by their wood fires, rheumatic
twInges, aching bones, burning OF corns and
bunions and many other infallible signs
when n change of weather was on the pro-
gramme, but the remains OF that instinct have
been lost in the dependence OH the Signal
Service, near its stations, and, as above
stated, the climatic disarrangement caused
by forest destruction in the East and tree
culture in the West, have upset all the prog
nostications of the backwoodsman.
This winter the pathological and ground
hog authorities contradict each other,
with the odds strongly in favor of
the latter. The hog is getting there
with all four feet, and tie King of
beasts backs him, while the wild geese,
robins, and several species Of spring-singing
birds are this morning mourning the error
in their calculations. The only bird that
has vindicated his reputation for wisdom is
the hoot-owl Mr.. Charles Robb, of Robin
son township, swears by the hooter and he
has vindicated the faith placed in him, but
like the Signal Service people, he only
makes predictions for short periods.
On Tuesday night they hooted with a vigor
and weird solemnity that carried conviction
to the minds of all who have made study
of their language that radical change OF
some kind was impending, and a day or two
later the Weather Bureau caught on.

Ascension and Declination Defined.
We find the terms right ascension and de-
clination occasionally used in our attempts
to indicate definitely the positions of heaven
ly bodies These terms are used in a way
analogous to that in which the position of a
city or ship is defined on the earth, namely,
by q system of celestial latitudes and longi-
tudes. The measure which in the heavens
corresponds most nearly to terrestrial longi-
tude is called right ascension, and that
which corresponds to terrestrial latitude is
called declination.
The celestial meridian from which right
ascensions are counted is the one which
passes through the yernal equinox or point
where the equator and ecliptic cross each
other. The right ascension of any star on
this meridian is zero, and the right ascen-
sion of any other star is measured by the
angle which the meridian passing through
it makes with the first meridian, this angle
being always counted toward the east. The
declination of a star is its distance from the
celestial equator. whether north or south.
exactly as latitude on the earth is distance
from the earth's equator.
The earliest observers of the stars had no
suspicion of their true nature or of the dis
tances that separate them from u.s. If they
did not think them within reach of their
hands, they supposed that they were at
least, almost in literal sense, accessible to
the voice. Homer says that the highest
pines Of Mount Ida passed beyond the limits
of the atmosphere and penetrated into the
ethereal region through which the clangor Of
the arms of his heroes reached to the sky.
This sky was u solid hemisphere, bell rest
ing upon the earth, or, according to Euripi-
0es, cover set over the work of the sublime
Artisan.
Some Ancient Notions of the Heavens.
The Hebrew psalmist of the eleventh CEN
tury before our era said to the Lord: Thou
stretchest out the heavens as pavilion. I"
The stars of Anaximenes were fixed in this
vault like nails. The celestial bell covered
a flat earth which was surrounded by water
on every side and every nation imagined it
self in the center of it. The Incas exhibited
this center in their sanctuary OF Cuzco, the
name of which signifies navel, as the Greeks
also saw it in the Temple of Apollo at Del
phi, which was called the navel of the
world. and was celebrated by Pindar under
that name.
The Chinese located the navel of the earth
in the city o. Khotan. The conception of
the earth as flat and like cake prevailed in
European civilization till the Crusades, and
the lazzaroni of Naples have it still.

JERRY SIMPSON,
Medicine Lodge,
Kansas.
I'm puressna ana1ant
Congressman-elect,
Big Seventh-No socks.


Jerry has donned stockings. but there is
no mistaking the fact that he is rigged out
a Ia farmer.
He intends that his makeup shall be that
way, and, having seen a great many farmers,
he is able to produce fair imitation.
The stripes in his "pants" are very dis
tinct and run perpendicularly instead Of
longitudinally. His present stock of
''pants" shows broad, yellowish stripe al
ternating with a chestnut sorrel section.
His coat and vest came off the same shelf.
Everything fits like paper on the wall when
the floor above has been visited by the fire
department.
But it is not on the surface that the Sam
son qualities OF Jerry was discovered. His
dynamite strength in the political quarry,
as will be recalled, was due to his disregard
of socks. 1t is rumored that since Jerry
broke into the improved conditions he
claims that he always wore socks, but this is
certainly untrue, as there are many thou
sands of people in the southwest quarter of
Kansas who know better. 1t is thought
there he should not seek to leave the boat
that took him across the political sea.
The most telling feature in Jerry's CAM
paign speeches amoug the fellows who cir
culate in the short buffalo grass was proof
absolute that be did not wear socks. In
order to get up the enthusiasm that would
raise him, as the rolling waves do the
bather, he would, very early in his speech,
elevate one prong of his 'pants.
