s'ShOw me an umbrella, says manu-
facturer, that has holes worn in the silk
about the ring at the top. while the body
of the material is still intact throughout,
and will show You the owner of an uin-
brella who doesn't deserve to own one.
if it is good one. And show me an UNI
brella that has holes in along the ribs be-
fore natural use of it should make them
come there, and viii show you an own
er who carries his umbrella more for the
sake of appearance than for utility"
A wet umbrella placed handle down
drips the moisture from it at the edges
of the frame, and the material with which
it is covered dries evenly and leaves no
spot still soaked with water. If the
handle is upward, the water runs down
to one spot at the top, where the strong
cloth lining about the ring holds good
deal of it and in comparatively short
time rots the material, and it breaks
easily.
The man who carries his umbrella
swathed in its case when it is not called
into use by rain will soon find it wearing
out from top to bottom.
This is because Of constant friction be-
tween the case and the silk, and no mat
ter of how good quality it may be the
holes will appear in it long before they
should, and the provider of the umbrella
will of course be blamed for selling in
ferior or damaged goods. There are
many people SO ignorant of the proper
treatment of an umbrella that they will
actually roll it up when wet and leave
it to rot and mold until the next time
they want it fer use. New York World

Tho Tornatlo's Twist.

The tornado and the cause of it's for
nation seem to be less perfectly under
stood than even the ever mysterious cleo
tricity. That a tornado has a violent
spiral motion and distinct ascending
movement is well established. The rapic
rotary motion tends to form vacuum
in the center Of the funnel shaped vol
ume, and this sucking force brings abou,
devastation. When a tornado surrounds
a house, the air inside of it forces the
walls asunder instantly.
But the inception of tornado and the
causes which lead up to it have not vel
been discovered. The scientist tells III
that the air Of valleys becomes heated
and rises, cold asr rushes in to take it.
place, the wind hits against hill, ii
changed in its course and goes cavortine
down the valley, and that makes a tor
nado. Bnt what gives it the twist? An6
there are no mountains in the AIissis
sippi valley, but cyclones form there
Weather bureaus, with all their costly
delicate instruments, have never vel
satisfactorily explained what gives the
tornado its twist The world is lookine
for man who can discover the tornado
in its native lair and definitely define
distinguish and describe it. All this i.
for the benefit of our neighbors of tbs
east, for the tornado never visits Cali

Look Toward the Light.

In q sickrOOm there was a little rose
bush in pot in the window. There
was only one rose on the bush, and its
face was turned full toward the light
This fact was noticed and spoken Of
when one said that the rose would looh
no other way save toward the light.
Experiments had been made with it; il
had been turned away from the window,
its face toward thekloom of the interior,
but in little time it would resume its
old position. With wonderful persist.
ence it refused to keep its face toward
the darkness and insisted on ever look.
ing toward the light. The rose has its
lesson for us.
We should never allow ourselves to
face toward ife's gloom. We should
never sit down in the shadows of any
sorrow and let the night darken over us
into the gloom of despair. We should
turn onr faces away toward the light
and quicken every energy for Drawer
duty and truer, holier service. Grief
should always make us better and give
us new skill and power; itshould make
our hearts softer, our spirits kindlier,
our touch more gentle; it should teach
us its holy lessons, and we should learn
them, and then go on with sorrows sa-
cred ordination upon us to new love and
better service.-Selected

ANTIQUITY Of the Alphabet.

According to Philippe Berger's book
entitled "Histoire de PEcritus dams PAN
tiquite," the alphabet was invented about
1900 B. c., that invented by the Phe-
nicians being without doubt the Oldest
of all the forms of expressing thought
or sounds by character. Originally it
and all other alphabets were simply q
series of hieroglyphics or picture char
acters, the idea of an elephant or an or
being expressed by rude sketches of
such animals. authorizations being in the
form of pair of tuslks, horns, etc, Pro
lessor Auer (see Vienna edition of his
"Sprachalle,' 1S49) says that, taking
both the ancient and modern alphabets
into account, as many as 400 different
sets Of characters, hieroglyphics and let
tiers may be enumerated, that these
are all outgrowths of the PhGnician
mode Of mutely expressing thought or
sound, and that if we should set aside
slight variations of form the grand to-
tai of 400 alphahets would dwindle inn
mediately to less than 90.
The best oriental scholars have given
it as their opinion that the original PhB-
nician alphabet was composed Of bat 16
characters, yet it is known that 1t con-
tanned at least n and probably % at the
time when it was adopted by the Greeks.
Why or by whom these extra characters
were invented, or why such an addition
was necessary, has never been explained.
