The Moon as we See It.

Did you ever stop to consider the fact
that the inhabitants Of this earth have
never seen but one side Of the moon, and
TO inquire tho reasons why such is the
case? The explanation is this: The moon
makes one revolution on her aAis in the
same period Of time that she takes up in
revolving once around the earth, thus
the same geographical region OF the lunar
surface is always toward rs. AS one ex-
planation usually calls for another, 1t
may not be out Of place TO mention the
fact that the reasons the two motions OF
the moon obove referred to so nearly
coincide are these:
The moon is not true globe, but Is
very elliptical in form. II did not in all
probabilities originally start on its azial
rotation with precisely the same velocity
with which 1t moved around the earth,
but the very best astronomers say that
the two motions were not far apart III
the start. Assuming that the moon was
semi-liquid or at least soft In those re-
mote days, the earth's attraction caused
the lunar surface TO elongate, and in the
untold ages which followed its axial ro-
tation, owing to the attractive influence
Of both the earth and the sun, was made
to correspond with its orbital movement
around the earth.-St. Louis Republic.

Double Duty.

a capital story was once told of the
Rev. Thomas Hunt, the veteran temper
ance orator, who was we'll known in the
early history Of the Wyoming valley.
He was somewhat eccentric man, but

which stood him III good stead ON many
occasions.
During the civil war he enlisted in
one of the regiments Of infantry raised
i'll the valley and served as chaplain
One day iii the very fiercest of the bat
tie major rode up in front Of the re,gi-
ment. and seeing Father Hunt at the
head of the ranks inquired in great as
constituent:
Z. Chaplain, what are you doing
there?'
S"What am I dofngY' repeated the
stNnch old minister quickly. I'm cheer
ing the hearts of the brave and watch
ing the heels of the towards |"
he was evidently performing this
double task so we'll and thoroughly that
the major could find no fault with him
nfd left him to his self appointed charge.

outlook for an exceptionally fine corn

the Dakotas and Minnesota, where 1.
