For every degree of temperature OF
the air there is maximum limit of
water vapor to the cubic inch which
the air is capable of bearing. So, too,
for any given quantity of vapor per
cubic inch, there is temperature at
which the air will hold exactly SO
much. This is the so-called point of
saturation. Reduce the temperature
below that point, and the yapor be-
gins to condense, and assume the form
of dew, fog, mist, vapor OF rain.
Snakes have their usefulness in the
world. They are the scayengers OF
swamps and morasses where other ami
mails of size are unable to penetrate
or exist. It is in the tropics, of course,
that serpents chiefly abound. All
snakes are of tropical origin, but
some species have spread into cooler
latitudes. In very cool countries
there are no snakes. Contrary to the
popular belief, there are some snakes
in Ireland, but they are very rare.

Mr.. Wilbur for the purpose of con
cealing his thought. He looked
earnestly at the stranger nearest him.
"I never expected to meet o
Southern man." he said, in blunt
tones; s'my father was made cripple
in the War"
sAnd mine lost his life, !" replied
the Southern man, gently. ssBut il
is all over now. You and I have one
country"
$50 we have-so we havel" said
Mr.. Wilbur, and the two shook hands
silently. This scene escaped the no.
tice of the rest of the company, who
had at once engaged in lively conver
sation; but to both men it was one Of
those little strokes that help to chisel
character.
"Oh, what a beautiful, beautiful
day among the mountains this has
been!" said Milicent Paul, when they
were homeward bound. 81 hope you
have enjoyed it too, Mrs. Wilbur"
sI have very much. I shall never
forget it," said the quiet little woman,
her face glowing.
The Wilburs left the next day.
Miss Paul shook hands with them
when they went, and most of the
others did the same. They went away
happy and satisfied. They said to
each other it had been good holiday.
1t was little awkward at first among
strangers, but it had all ended pleas
antly, and they had seen SO much.
"Are you going to correspond With
them, Milicent?" asked her school.

''Hetty, DEAR" said Milicent, ''you
really must open your eyes wider and
see the world you live in; you will
find it repay you. The Wilburs are
only passing acquaintances, like many
others; we may never meet them
again. But in conversing, found
out one or two things which may in
terest you. When Mr.. and Mrs. Will
bur were married, ten years ago, his
mother had just died, and there were
brothers and sisters besides the Grip
pied father to be cared for. Mrs.
Wilbur and her husband put their
shoulders cheerfully to the wheel and
worked together. 1t was farm life and
farm work. The father died year
ago, and the brothers and sisters now
take care of themselves. So this year,
when haying and canning were over,
the Wilburs decided to take little
holiday and see the mountains.
Neither of them ever saw mountain
before. It has been the great event
of their lives. cannot tell you how
glad am that they went with us yes
terday.''
$50 am I, said Hetty.
''Another little thing came out, too.
I found out where they live. They
told me it was close by the Shore Line
railroad, a mile from the smallest
Rhode Island station, small red
farmhouse with two apple trees and a
garden in front. with box border,

bluest larkspurs in the world, and the

she said Why, girls, I always look
