Explanation.

The arrow flies with the wind. The top figures
Rt station indicate maximum temperature for the
days; those underneath it, if any, the amount Of
rainfall Of melted snow in inches and hundredths,
during the past twelve hours. Isobars, solid
lines, connect poin of equal air pressure; isO-
therms, or dotted lines, equal temperature. The
word 'high" means high barometric pressure and
is usually accompanied by fair weather; Glow"
refers to low pressure. and is usually preceded
and accompanied by cloudy weather and rains.
Lows" usually first appear on the Washington
coast. When the pressure is high in the interior
and low along the coast, and the isobars extend
north and south along the coast rain is probable;
but when the slow" is inclosed with isobars of
marked curvature rain south of Oregon is improb-
able. With ''high'' in he vicinity of Idaho and
the pressure falling the California coast warmer
weather may be expected in summer and colder
weather in winter The reverse Of these conditions
Will produce opposite result.

sA1Es-nonN1Ne SESSION.
Pres criptions by Pigeon Post.

There is a medical practitioner in Scot
land, says the Medical Press and Circular,
whose area of practice is SO wide that he
has resorted to the method of using car
rier pigeons for the purpose Of assisting
him in his daily labors. When, for exam
pie, he is called upon to visit patients far
distant from his home he takes with him
mum ber of his stock of carrier birds. On
reaching an urgent case and prescribing,
he forwards the prescription by means OF
pigeon. As soon as the bird reaches his
house a domestic carefully extracts the
message frcm under its wing and hands it
to the doctors dispenser, who makes up
the prescription and dispatches the medi-
cine to the patient. Another convenient
arrangement resorted to by this enter
prising practitioner is to leave one of his
pigeons at the house of a far distant
patient whose case may demand his early
attention. When in such an instance
the doctors presence is urgently de-
manded, a pigeon is dispatched with
message, and the doctor is soon on his way
to the patients house.

NEW YORK, n. Y, Oct. 1.-Stocks were less
active to-day, the sales amounting to 179,776
shares, against $4,000 shares yesterday. The
falling on in business due to excitement in the
wheat market, the bull movement in The cereal
having attracted general attention. At the open
ing stocks ruled lower, owing to weak cables from
London and moderate sales. Failing to induce
foundations the small bears made effort to
cover and their purchases soon brought ad-
vance of A@lA per cent. In this rise Sugar,
Chicago Gas Manhattan, the grangers and low
pr.ced issues were most prominent Chicago as
