Natural Philosophy and the Parasol.

A bright Washington woman has just
made a discovery. For some seasons she
has been in the habit in summer of car
rying a parasol to keep the sunbeams
from her head, and she has been won
dering of late why it was that she
seemed to be just as warm when she
raised her shade as when she forgot it
and allowed it to remain unopened.
The other day she was walking along
Pennsylvania avenue, and acting upon
the impulse of her habit she raised her
parasol as soon as she emerged from a
store Then she noticed that her breath
ing was difficult and that her face was
burning. Suddenly it dawned upon her
she had noticed this before, and she set
to work to reason out the cause. For a
time she pondered, growing warmer
with each step, until she moved in the
shade of tree and snapped her parasol
into its folded state. In a moment her
face was bathed with fresh, cool air,
and she was immensely relieved. Ii
then flashed across her that she had been
unconsciously iInprisoning all the hot
air rising from the sidewalks and as
phalt pavements beneath the domelike
top of her shade, which, instead of act
ing as a protector, as intended, was
reallyserving as hood to surround her
face with the hottest atmosphere of the
street. AS long as she held her parasol
up the air had no chance to circulate,
and this was the more uncomfortable be.
cause she persisted in holding it quite
low. So she experimental, and as a re-
suit found that she was really more
comfortable when she walked with her
parasol folded than when she opened it,

The case Of Miss A. NJ Hicks is at
tracing considerable attention in west
ern Kentucky For 20 years she had
been principal Of Clinton college and
had made a reputation second to none
in that section. In recent years she has
become welded TO the faith cure idea,
which greatly displeased the trustees.
They notified her at the conclusion Of
the term this year that she would either
have to give up the school or cease adj
vocating her new faith. She chose to
quit the college, and Of her retirement
and the reasons for it the Hickman Cou
rier says:
During the commencement exercises
Of Clinton college few weeks ago Miss
A. NJ. Hicks, who has been principal Of
that institution for the past 20 years,
rendered her resignation, and in doing
so made the following remarks: L be-
