RAINMAKERs have been at their busi- ness long enough to be a little out of fashion by this time. But manufactur- ing a clear sky is something quite new, and certainly not less serviceable than rain, in due season. Prof. Gavin, at Moudon, in Switzerland, has sent out offers of fine weather to astronomers, saying that he will clear the sky and provide an atmosphere transparent enough for any observation, either in daytime or at night. For a full day, or twenty-four hours of the finest weather, he charges only one dollar. Surely tho professor ought to be engaged for the Columbian fair; no other exhibit would draw and pay like him.

THE oldest woman's club in America is said to be Sorosis; the public is gem orally puzzled over the signifcation of the name which is derived from two Greek words, and means an aggrega- ton of fruits. The fruits of education and culture hung high when Sorosis was first inaugurated and the pioneer women of the organization justly prized the few advan tages attainable at that time. The club was sneered at and the women who mothered it were all most regarded as cranks. Unmindful of adverse criticism it's members pur- sued the even tenor of their way until to-day the club is a strongly organized band of women who command the re- spect of the civilized world.
