TAKE a BEECH TREE.
1t Ia Considered the safest for Shelter In
n Thunder Storm.


Thunder Storm.
The danger of taking refuge under
tree when caught In thunderstorm
is one OF which we are constantly re-
minded; but, when we have TO choose
between getting wet through with its
attendant discomfort and the (appar-
ently) small chance Of being struck by
lightning while under the shelter of
the treo, IL is only natural that we
should decide in favor OF the latter,
says the Paris Figaro,
Under such circumstances it Is of ad.
vantage 20 know which is the best tree
TO choose for shelter. A certain Herr
Wockort tells us that we should select
a beech tree, and gives MS tho follow
ing reasonl
IL Is always advisable TO select those
trees whose leaves are hairy or ciliatet
in preference to trees with smooth
leaves. The danger OF being strucl'
by lightning depends not only upon
the height OF the tree, but also upor
It's power OF conductibility, determinet
by the AMOUNT Of sap and its electric
tension.
Most of us know the tendency
points to attract electricity, the mos
notable example of the application o
this principle being the lightning con
duotor The hair, or ella, ofloavc5 nc
the part OF natural lightning con
duetors, and thus prevent the forma
ton OF a very strong eleotro-motivC
force, therefore IL stands 10 reason that
there is less danger in sheltering under
a beech tree than under an oak or tree
OF a similar kind.

There is another curious fact about the

others on the store counters. The cold
silk then appeared to be Of a much
finer quality. when In reality it was
from the same loom. IA soon as this
fact became generally recognized the
large silk dealers went 10 the cold
storage warehouses and had their silk
placed In freezing vaults. In some
cases the thermometer is kept ns low as

taken out they feel like blocks Of ice
