EcOne my In Feat, Wear.

The neatest and most economical pos
sinle foot wear is low cut shoe of a.
special pattern to be worn with CATERS
to match each dress. This style of foot
clothing has many advantages. The low
saoe is easily aired, and the inner sole
will retain the odors Of the feet with the
aeatest of parsons if not properly aired.
especially when one walks much. The.
saiter breaks the apparent size of a large
foot and farms very attractive finish.
when matched to costumes.
Skirts rabbing against the front Of.
high kid boots will wear the seam, while
the lower part remains in perfect condi-
ton. Caters, upon the other hand, ca,,
be changed as soon as defaced and worn
with the same boot. Many pretty gaitars
are possible for different occasions aud
styles os dress.--Jenness Miller Monthly.

Calculatfor. tile Distance of a Storm.

Although lightning and thunder occur
always simultaneously, an interval O.
shorter or longer duration is usually Oh
served between these two phenomena.
which is.due to the fact that sound tray
els only at the rate of LOO feet per sse-
ond, while the passage of light is almost
instantaneous. Based upon this fact. it
is an easy matter to tell, at least approx
imately. how many miles a thunder
storm is away. A normal pulse will
beat about one stroke to the second, and
by counting the pulse beats during the
interval IF the lightning and the thunder
the lapse of seconds is arrived at and
consequently the number of feet, which
can be reduced to miles.
For example: If 30 seconds elapse oe-
tween the flash of the lightning and the
crash of thunder, the storm center is at
a distance of $4,000 feet, or about 81
miles. An almost accurate calculation
can be made by using watch with a
minute lial.-St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

United States coinage of 1893 is very rare

sold for as mach as $s10. 4 1896 half
cent is SO ra1a as to sell readily for SIS,
and half dollar of the same year is
worth 60 times its original value. While
the half cent Of 1904 is, common enough,
all the othes coins Of that year are rare,

the rarest Of all American coins. Only
