TALL HAlLSTONE YARNS.
One Piece of lee M Big as II Millston
Said to Have Fallen.

One Piece of lee IA Big ns II Milestone
said to Have Fallen.
During a storm at Morbihen, juno 2t,
1916, the hailstoncs in some instances
actually attained the size of Il turkeys
egg, and one measured eight and three
quarters inches in circumference. May
4, 1897, "A hailStone was found in STAFF
fordshire, England. which was eleven
and threc-quartcrs inches in circum-
ference. Nolncy tells of a storm at
Ponchartrain in which hailstoncs fell
which were as large as a mans fist, and
one which he found himself weighed
five ounces. Volta records a hailstonc
found in the ncighborhood of Como
which weighed nearly nine ounces, and
there is good authority for the state
mcut that hailstoncs weighing as much
as a pound fell at Constantinople De-
tobcr ,, 1881. But there have been still
more remarkable instances, il we ac-
cept the statements coming apparently
from reliable sources. During a hail
storm at Cazorta, in Spain, June ID.
1880, some of the blocks of lee weighed
four and h half pounds. 1t Is the gem
rral opinion among scientists that fof
h~ailstones to attain such proportions
several must have been fastened to-
gcther, either when they reached the
ground or while in descent. Under no
other circumstances can the possibility
of the above and the still more wonder
full phenomena to follow be admitted.
Even so, there is good reason to doubt
Flammarion's statement that during
the latter part of October, 1914, an
awful hurricane devastated southern
France, in which hailstoncs weighing
eleven pounds fell, or hat of DIR. Fois-
sac, who cites an instance in which
hailstones measuring three feet in
length and width, with a thickness of
two and ~one-quartcr feet, fell to earth.
When DR.. Foissac was accused of cXag-
geration he cmphatically insisted on
the truth of his statements, and TO bet
ter maintain them added: IN. Hue, II
Catholic missionary of Tartary, relates
that hailstoncs of a remarkable size
often fell in Mongolia, and that some
of them have been found TO weigh
twelve pounds. During Il heavy storm
in 1S43 a noise as of Il terrible wind was
heard in the air, and soon after there
fell in IA field not far from our house IA

A Remedy for Zee stings.

A great many, especially young
mothers, are at a loss what to do when
IA child gets stung by Il bee or hornet.
Soda moistened with water and applied
directly to the bee sting will allay the
pain almost Immediately and counter
act the poison. But when one is away
off in the woods or in a field, it is well
enough t. bear in mind other remedies
that are just rs efficient and near at
hand. Three different varieties of veg
citation of any kind, gathered as quick
ly as possible, the leaves bruised and
rubbed on the wound, will have the
same effect as the soda, IL in a barren
spot away from vegetation, take some
earth of any kind, moistcn it so it will
adhere to the surface, and lay it on,
and the effect will be like magic. One
day IA neighbours ferret was running
along the fence next the highway, and
nosing about under the rails, when 1t
got badly stung on the nose and ears
by humble bees. As soon as it had
fought the bees away it ran immediate
ly to a mud puddle in the road and COW
cred its head and ears with mud. In a
short time it seemed to be at ease and
suffering no inconvenience from the
sting. A bee sting should be treated as
soon us possible or the remedies will
prove Intellectual. Mrs. John Gaillard.
