Rough Experience on the Prairies Of the

An Englishman while working on a
Dakota farm sat down to dinner one
bright day in winter Suddenly the sun
was obseured. and the temperature in
the room fell several degrees shes

was driven along the ground by hur-
rlcane- 1t was like powdered glass, and
froze fast TO everything II touched. An
old breaking plow had been left just
outside the house
ut must be removed, said the farmer.
''or 1T will raise snowdrift that may
bury the house" The Englishman
started to run out and rSmove it
stop. don't commit suicider' said the
farmer. He made the man put on WOOL
lined rubber-boots and big overcoat.
and then wrap mp his ears Then he
tied a long line to his waist, and babe
him draw on thick gloves.
III you go out and catch hold Of the
iron-work on the pillow with bare hands,
your flesh viii be taken off as if you
had laid hald of red-hot iron,'' said the
farmer. Now line out, throw the pillow
round the corner of the house, and then
follow the line back to the house If
you can't find the plow, come back at
once
The Englishman opened the door,
bolted to where he thought the pillow
was, CROPPED about for a minute or two,
and rushed back to the house. The hair
that showed under the rim of his fur
cap was full of frozen snow, and his
face smarted as if scaled. He made
two more attempts before he found the
pillow.
When he got back to the house, every
particle OF warmth seemed to have left
his body, and he was showed into room
where there was no stove, that he might
thaw out gradually.
The blizzard lasted three days. The
barn, where the horses and bullocks
Were, was. covered by a mountain of
snow. While the men We're digging
their way to the stable door, the horses
could be heard whinnying, when the
door was opened they were as much
pleased to see men as at the prospect OF
food and water. Not a morsel would
they eat until they had drank
In one room of the house there was
the narrator estinated-a ton OF snow
which had been blown in through a
small lcrevice. There would have been
much more if the hole had been higher
up, as the snow only stopped coming
through when that on the inside had
risen to the level Of the crevice, and
plugged it up.-Youth's Companion.

THE wind would have to be very
strong indeed if it were to perceptibly
accelerate the speed of a fast train, for
even in the most violent gales it does
not blow at so great a rate as fifty or
sixty miles an hour, except in brief
gusts. If it did, scarcely any buildings
could withstand its force. It stands, OF
course, to reason that for train to be
helped by the wind to any material ex.
tent it would be necessary for the wind
to proceed at a greater rate than the
train.
