THE POETRY OF ICE.
What May be Seen by Watching a PaI
of Water While 1t Freezes.

What May be Seen by Watching a Pan
of Water While 1t Freezes.
A person who has never closely OBJ
served the operation of natures great
ice factory will be surprised to find how
interesting it is You need not go out
side of comfortably heated room 10
do this. Just place pan of water on
the window sill, when the temperature
is below the freezing point, and you
will soon see something that cannot
fail to interest you. If you happen to
have magnifying glass, a single lens,
so much the better, for the magnifying
power will reveal much of the delicate
work of ice raking that is Invisible to
the naked eye. Anyway, us you closely
watch the surface of the water you will
soon see tiny little lances, very beauti-
full when seen under the microscope,
shooting hither and thither on the sur
face of the water. If it is cold enough
to make ice in the sunlight the crystal
lances will glow with all the colors OF
the rainbow, and as they dart about the
rapid changes of color will remind you
of the wonders of the Kaleidoscope.
As the water continues to chill the
little lances will come together, and
then smaller and still more delicate
crystals will be seen forming between
the lances and welding them together.
This process goes on until the surface
is covered with a beautiful film of ice
hardly .trong enough to bear the weight
OF mosquito. But the process goes
on under this superficial layer, and u
smooth and solid surface is the result.
Many people have the impression
that the ice particles form at the bot
tom and float to the top of the water.
If this were true our lakes and some of
our large rivers would be glaciers,
solid masses of ice all the year. At
the surface, where the freezing process
is going on. water is always colder than
at any level below. In all our northern
lakes and deep rivers the great body Of
water Is from the five to eight degrees
above the freezing point, even when
heavy ice covers the surface.

Taught a Lesson.

A man with large business interests
and u handsome income married lady
who, accustomed all her previous life
to the luxuries of wealth, had never
formed any clear conception of the
worth and purchasing power of money.
For some months the indulgent husband
gratified his wife's every whim.
One day the lady, to carry out some
caprice, asked for a check for so large
u sum that the gentleman was dis
turbed. He saw that such prodigality,
if persisted in, meant ruin; but not
wishing to gricve his wife by down.
right refusal, he determined to give her
II lesson in finance. He therefore
smilingly remarked that he could not
give her IA check us usual. but would
send up the money from his store.
About noon the promised money
came. not in crisp bills, as was expect
ed, but in silver dollars, the sum total
filling several specie bags.
The wife was at first vexed, then
amused and finally, as the afternoon
wore away, became deeply thoughtful.
When her husband came home to sup
per, she took him gently by the arm,
and leading him into the room where
the ponderous bags OF specie were still
standing, said:
MY dear, is this the money asked
you for this morning?"
at is, my love-" was the reply.
"And did you have to take this
money all in, dollar by dollar, in the
course of your businessp" was the next
question.
Yes" he answered gently; 'it re-
presents the results of many weeks Of
hard labor"
"Well, then" she said, with fearful
eyes, send man to take it back to the
bank in the morning. 1 can't use so
much money for so trivial purpose

tice recently, says the st. Louis Say
ings, that surpasses anything ever
heard of in the way OF heartless in
difference. He was called to investi-
gate a case where Il mans wife had
died very suddenly. 1t was plainly n
case Of heart failure, but tho husband
insisted upon an autopsy. He not
only wanted the autopsy, but he wanted
to see it performed. The body was
placed on table and the doctors
began work. The husband watched
every movement very closely. Finally
the liver and heart were exposed and
the heart was found to be greatly
enlarged. The husband, more deeply
interested than ever. stepped forward
and took hold OF the heart with his
fingers.
1T made my blood run cold," said
the deputy, ''and l pushed the man
away" He seemed to resent the cor
oner's action very much and insisted
on knowing what caused his wife's
death. The doctor explained that it
was caused by an enlargement OF tho
heart.
