FIFTY Feet Of is,inf,l1 Annually

There is always more or less guess
work concerning the amount of rain that
falls during any storm period Through
ont the United States the amount that
falls on any one day rarely exceeds one
inch There are certain portions of the
globe, however, that are frequently, and
others only occasionally, dclugcd with
water. On the southern slopes of the
Himalaya mountains, ut M altitude of
4, 500 feet, G10 inches of rainfall have
been registered IN single year, of
which amount 147 inches U2 feet 3
inchcs) fell in the month of June. At q
meteorological station in latitude is
degrees, near the western boundary of
Hindustan, the average rainfall for tho
10 years ending with 1898 was 254
inches In the northwestern part of Eng
land, at an altitude of 1900 feet, the
average annual rainfall is 146 inches,
Ill inches in excess Of the mean for st.
Louis, which Is but 81 inches and a
fraction.
The wonderful record given above is
still more phenomenal when we con-
slider the fact that all the moisture the
atmosphere is capable of holding at any
one time would cover the entire surface
of the globe to depth of less than four
inches should it all be instantly precipi-

THE eoNNY Doom.

I paused beside the bonny Doom
AT midnight and alone
And heard It tell tho listening moon,
In saddcst undertone,
The loss and sorrow by 1t known.
"What though In spring my birks grow sweet,
In summer shade my tide?
What though the years unchanged repeat
THOR magic at my side?
No moro to me the bard returns
Who sang my banks and braes,
No moro the lips of Robert Burns
Are vocal in my praise"
"Oh, bonny Doonl' said 1, take heart
And learn this truth of me:
Immortal us his heavenly art :.
The bard himself must be.
Though never to your banks and braes
His wandering step returns, :.
The sweetest singer in your praise
Is still your Robert Burns" =
Yet, as before, beside the Doom,
At midnight and alone,
heard 1t tell the listening moon,
In saddest undertone,
The loss and sorrow by it known.
