cause Tabitha was the goddess of the

why <;Jerusalem" donkey isso called.

effectively protected against exterior

glass possesses much greater resisting
power than the ordinary material and
is, it is claimed, Indifferent to the
most abrupt changes Of temperature
and will even withstand open ire.
The glass is especially adapted for
skylights, the powerful resisting
qualities of the material enabling the
usual wire protectors to be dispensed
with. As wire glass cannot be cut
by the diamond except under the ap-
plicatlon of great force and cannot
be broken without creating consider
able noise, the substance is claimed
to be in a measure burglar-proof.-

Et6se of TOrnadOaSx

From the Gulf of Mexico to the
North Pole and from the lakes to the
Rocky Mountains is vast extent oi
country crossed by no mountain chains
to intercept or retard the velocity OF
air current. The extent of this coun-
try is equalled by none on earth. Cold
mir being heavier to the square inch
than warm air, the cold air, when COM
ing in contact with warm current
from the south, always predominates,
forcing the warm air into the upper
currents. The cause of cyclones is the
meeting of head wind from the north
with head wind from the south. They
meet like two vast armies of men. The
pressure at the point of meeting is so
great that the air, by comprehension,
becomes heavier to the square inch
than wood or the human body, hence
either one will float in the same man
ner that wood will foat in water-it
floats because it is lighter to the square
inch than water. Place water in an
ordinary wash bowl and remove the
plug and it will be observed that in
passing out the water forms q circular
reaction. Air being liquid does the
same in passing either upwards or
downwards; hence the funnel-shaped
spout of the cyclone centre. When
two immense bodies of air coming from
opposite direction meet, the only
egress is upwards and sideways, and in
passing upwards it forms the funnel
the same as water passing out of a
washbowl downwards. The theory that
cyclone forms a vacuum is absurd.
Withdraw air from glass jar with an
air-pump, and, feather within
the vacuum formed will drop with the
same velocity as lead, or, on the other
hand, you can compress air until it fs
heavier to the square inch than wood,
in which case wood will float in the
air. The lifting power of a cyclone is
caused ~ by the compression or den
sity Of the air, and (2) by its velocity.
Combining the power of density with
that of velocity, which occurs at the
centre or funnel, no power can resist
it. The feeling of sufocation or diff.
