clover to keep up the strength Of the

are the bane Of the peppermint growers

times persons so marked have recovered
from the effects Of the bolt Sometimes
the lightning stroke will cure diseases,
rheumatism being the disorder oftenest
ended by this means, marked instance
Of this sort being reported from mu-
scum in New York a few years ago,
when the stroke entered the place, skip
ped three inmates, struck the fourth,
tore his clothes and left him for dead.
He recovered in few days, and to his
joy his joints that were before distorted
with rheumatism were supple and have
since remained so. A monument in a
cemetery. in Lancaster, Pa. was struck
by lightning in 1891. The shaft was Of
gray granite, but after the stroke it was
all white save for an irregular line ex-
tending it's whole length. This line is
deep black in color and appears to be a
concentration of all the coloring matter
in the entire stone, which, by the way,
was left quite sound. In house in
Rochester the leaden Trainings Of a
stained glass window were melted and
the panes deposited on the floor, while
the glass Of a massive mirror was laid
flat and unframed on the carpet, though
the frame was quite destroyed. ::
1t is early yet for the lightning's
freaks this year, but it has already be-
gun in New Jersey. At Bridgeton the
house of Mr.. Zaccheus Johnston was
struck late in May. Johnston and his
wife were stunned little, but Mrs
Porch was rendered senseless for an
hour or two, her babe was burned hor-
ribly, and gold watch under a pillow
was melted: Yet nothing about the
house took fire. (: ..s..

So far as my own observation goes,
the lightning rod agent does not make
himself nearly so numerous as he
once did Certainly the percentage Of
buildings without the surmounting
points is much larger than formerly.
Dread Of tnunderstorms is to many
persons most horrible thing. I know
a man Of the coolest temperament, a
man who has exhibited genuine courage
on more than one occasion of real peril,
who will leave his desk when a thunder
storm comes up and walk ~ and down
his Office, wringing his hands and max
ing nuisance Of himself generally. He
says he cannot control his fears, and
that is doubtless true, for he is keenly
sensible to the ridiculo usness of the fig
ure he cuts. His doctor says that the
mans physical system is probably affect
ed deleteriously by the electrical condi-
tions of the atmosphere during a thun-
derstorm, and that he is quite incapable
Of remaining quiet during it's continu-
ance. ... 49,
There is one class of men and women
who have a dislike for thunderstorms
that is based upon experiences that are
SO definite and SO disagreeable that it is
not surprising that they have produced
this result. They are the telephone and
telegraph operators, and the stories they
sometimes tell each other of streaks and
globes Of blue and green and red fire
running along and skipping off the wires
are such as to sometimes arouse scott
ings on the part of the incredulous.
Those who know the most about light
ming harnessed by means of wires and
embarrassed and pursuing its free course
in the sky and among the the clouds,
it is worthy Of note, are not likely to
scott at any story that is told of the
lightning. It is curious thing, though,
that, although there is no doubt of the
existence of what appear to the observer
to be balls Of fire attendant upon thun-
derstorms, no one has ever succeeded
in getting a photograph of such dis
play, while many plates showing forms
Of electrical phenomena not visible to
the eye because Of the rapidity with
which the electric fluid takes it's course
have been developed.
Here are a few of the may curious
results Of lightning strokes that have
been recorded within the past few years:
In 1898 Martin Campbell of Brook
Ign was killed by a flash, and his body
was found to be marked with a ring
about the neck, as if he had been stran-
gled by hangman's moose, while Gu
riously branching lines resembling the
growth Of a plant ran along his chest.
These peculiar markings have been not
ed in more than one instance, and some:
