THE ZoOlAcAL LIGHT.
= rAsnoms.oa = sasars commo1

A Phenomenon IN Nature Commonly
KnoWn rs sthS sun Drawing water"
Sometimes lii the evening, some little
time before and during twilight. and
sometimes--though rarer--before and
during sunrise, q close observer may de-
tect peculiar, fanlike streams OF darker
and lighter shading across the sky.
These streaks, OF which the palmer ones
may number from four to six, together
form q triangle, with its base ON the
horizon and extending out at varying
attitudes.
This appearance still holds rank az an
unexplained phenomenon in nature. 1t
occurs only occasionally. There may be
q fine illustration ON a given evening,
and while there may be a week of clear
sunsets succeeding not a trace Of the
streaks will be visible.
From this it would seem that a par
ticular atmospheric condition must be
n Of the factors in its production.
The assumption would be supported by
numerous analogies not necessary to
enumerate. In the proper atmosphere,
then, let it be assumed that the streaks
are due to alternate lines of shade and
light.
Now, let something to some extent
obstruct the rays Of the SUN which has
set, either an impeachment in the distant
landscape or an unseen cloud, the COM
bination at the proper angle with the
Observers vision, and it is probable that
he may approach a solution of the long
standing puzzle.
The fanlike appearance is such for the
same reason that the lines in a brick
wall leading away from the observer
seem to focalize to q center, as do also
railway tracks seemingly come together
in the distance. These zodiacal lines
are undoubtedly parallels, as are lines OF
cloud streaks that to our vision seem to
point to a common starting point. II
Is more than probable that this modest
and unobtrusive streaking of the clear
evening sky has been unsolved because
OF its very simplicity. 1t IL probably
only a modification of what is common
~ known as 1.-THE sun drawing water. y

At the Ohio epileptic hospital is a
patient of middle age who has dwelt
in hospitals ever sinbe he was a boy.
First he was sent TO the blind asylum
being totally blind. After being
there some years he was one day sud-
denly endowed with sight, and then
became almost Immediately deaf and
dumb. He was then removed to the
deaf and dumb asylum. There he
remained for some time. Finally
his speech and his hearing returned,
and then insanity took possession or
him, and he was removed to the in
sane asplum. After he had been
there a few years his reason began
slowly to return, and his malady
changed to epilepsy, and for that dis
ease he was sent here. With a few
days he has developed tuberculosis.
He will not likely long survive.

Mrs. Strickland of Antelope Valley
has been arrested again for the muir
der of Mrs. Adeline Eggleston. 1t
seems that q man and his two sons
were passing through the valley seek
ing employment and early one night
last week they passed the Strickland
residence. They heard screams and
blows inside the house and stepped
nearer to in vestigate and lend assist
ance il necessary. AS they approach
ed the door they heard q mans voice
saying: "You murdered old Mrs. Egg
gleston, but you can't murder me-"
Upon which the woman with terri
BILE oath, retorted, "You we're just as
much to blame as / was and I'll have
you hung before night" The listen
ers went away and related their iex-
perience, and in consequence, Mrs.

Medicinal Value of AppIes.

"The medicinal value of apples is
not half appreciated" said DR.. J..
Selkirk. "To men of esdentary hab-
its whose lives are sluggish, the acids
of the apple serve to eliminate from
the body noxious matters, which, if
retained, would make the brain heavy
and dull or bring about jaundice,
skin eruptions and kindred evils.
The malic acid of ripe apples, raw or
cooked, will neutralize any excess of
chalky matter engendered by eating
too much meat. 1t is also true that
such ripe fruit as the apple, pear and
plum, taken without sugar, diminish
acidity of the stomach rather than
provoke it, as popularity but errone-
ously supposed. Their juices are
converted into alkaline carbonate,
which tend to counterfeit acidity.
