We didn't get into London until
about Z o'clock Wednesday night, but
it was fine travelling coming up from
Southampton. You'd have thought
the cars had rubber bicycle tyres on
their wheels-see that word tyres?
that's English for tires-I saw it on
a sign. They rode along just as
smoothly as a bicycle would on Il tar
pavement, and go-Jerusalem, how
they did go! That little toy engine I
told you about once she got started
Just leaped over the ground. You'd
almost think you were travelling on Il
streak of lightning and in a packing
box. That's all the ears are, just lit
tie packing boxes petitioned off into
stalls running from side to side. You
get into one of these stalls and the
guard-they call brakemen guards Over
herc-the guard locks you in and off
you go. 1t isn't a bit like travelling in
it quite as much as the American cars
with Isles down the middle of EN- be-
cause the broken mixed candy and
banana boys can't walk through and
sell you things! haven't seen a broken
mixed candy and banana boy over
here and it's all because their cars
haven't any Isles. There aren't any
comic paper boys either but guess
that's a good ,mng. Pop bought a

DreSs for

Do you dress for dinner? Or do you
consider that a practice incompatible
with sterling merit and democratic
spirit? Have you regarded it as a habit
to be left exclusively to those who
have nothing better to do than to ex-
hibit different sets of garments at diff
ferent hours of the day? If so, dis
abuse your mind at once of these
views. Dressing for dinner is a GUS
tom to be commended from every point
of view, including the economic and
%bygienic.
1t is economic to wear a semi-even-
ing gown at dinner, for the street
gown. which costs twice as much as
the house gown, lasts twice as long
with judicious changes. 1t is hygieniC
because there is actual bodily refresh
ment in soap, water, fresh linen and
a fresh gown after the toll and tur
MOL of the day, and there is also the
less easily defined but equally potent
influence of pretty clothes upon the
mind, and hence upon the health OF
the wearer.

Greek Chariot Races.

The chariot races, like those of the
Roman circus, initiated from the
Greek. were of striking interest, There
was scarcely any honor of the games
more glorious than the charioteer's vic
tory. especially if the owner drove his
own horses. The danger TO life and
limb undergone by the charioteer was
no. less that that riSked by the athlete
in boxing with the c%estes, or in the
pancratium. The vivid chapter in
Ben Hur' depicting the chances and
perils of a chariot race essentially the
same as that of the Olympic games
gives an excellent notion of such Il
co~ntest.-''The Olympian Games" by

The Weather Bureau.


The instruments used in observing
the weather are the aneroid and els
tern barometers. wet and dry bulb
thermometers, wind vane and compass,
thermometer and anemograph, and the
rainfall. OF all these the barometer is
probably the most important. The
standard form of the instrument is a
tube thirty-four inches long, closed at
the top, exhausted of air, and i'm
mersed at the bottom in q cup of mer-
curry. The purpose of the barometer
Is to measure the pressure of the at
m%osphere. In general, the mercury
will stand high in the tube when the
weather is fair, and low when it is
foul. BY noting the minute changes,
measured on a graduated scale beside
the tube, the observer reads the indi-
cations of the barometer. The words
fair" Change etc, engraved on the
front of the instrument are disregard
ed. They have no significance what
ever The rising or falling of the mer-
curry in the tube is caused by the be-
ginning of those atmospheric changes
which precede a storm but are not dis
cernible by our senses. The barom-
eter discerns them for us, and gives
warning of weather changes. OF
course there are many different condi-
tions which affect the instrument, and
| the weather observers are instructed in
these matters. The aneroid barome-
ter is round like IN of the cheap
nickel-plated clocks that are so nu-
merous, and the changes are indicated
by a hand moving across a scale on the
dial. The weight of the atmosphere
is measured not by a column of mer-
curry in a tube. but by the expansion
and compression of a small metal box
from which the air has been exhaust
