Breezes from Springs.

II have seen few blowing springs,
and / could never understand how
they are formed or the cause for the
outward current OF air." said Bert
Magoffin, of Kentucky, at the South
ern. There is one at Brandensburg,
KY, where the water coming from
the spring is strongly impregnated
with salt. There is sufficient breeze
blowing from the spring to be dis
tinctly felt and to blow handker-
chief quite violently This breeze is
intermittent.
There is another one In Walker
County, Georgia, where the water is
fresh and the breeze is considerably
stronger. 1t can be distinctly heard
for some distance, and in the hottest
weather it is sufficient to keep a per-
son cool and comfortable around the
spring. The opening In the mount
ain where the water flows is small,
and when an ear is placed to this
opening the wind can be heard as
though a strong breeze were con-
stantly blowing inside, while outside

stirring. have never heard a rea-

Women as Detectixes.

The sphere of woman has been so
greatly enlarged for the past few
years that one hears from the fair
sex in all the phases and depart
ments of life. The West End road
now employs a corps of women de-
tectives who are supposed to keep
tab upon conductors who may show
an inclination to knock down fares.
That great corporation finds that
women make better detectives than
the men because their eagle eye is
not easily detected. The women
cast very slight look at the clock
register when fare is rung in, and
nothing is thought of 1t, but man
who is seen looking at the register is
pointed out by everybody as West
End detective. The women detec-
tives, like the men detectives, as
soon as discovered, are Of no further
use to the West End. Boston Post.

Where Boys Cannot whistle.

There is a country In Africa where
no one is allowed to whistle after
dark. The name Of this country is
Fee. And in Fee the person who
whistles after the shades of night
have fallen will very likely be killed,
because the people of Fee believe
that whistling after dark calls up
evil spirits. If a whistle is heard on
the streets of Fee at night the peo-
pie Jump up out Of their beds and
run out, armed with guns and knives,
to kill the one who is whistling. 1t
is even worse in Fee to whisper at
night in the streets, because it is
thought that the evil spirit is very
near, and that the one who whispers
is talking to him. 1t cannot be very
pleasant to live in the town of Fee,
because boy might, without think
ing, whistle in the evening, and then
the consequences would be very bad.
Or girl might whisper to her broth
er az she is seated on her own door
step in the evening.
