IN BALLOON.
The Sensations That Are superinduced by
 Its Rising and Falling.

The Sensations That Are Superinduced by
 Its Rising and Falling.
 A dim sunlight strikes Us in the bal loon. Suddenly we realize we are in bright sunshine again, with feecy white clouds below us and deep blue sky above. Look at the shadow of the bal loon on the clouds See the light pris- matic colors like halo around the shadow of the car. Here we are all alone, in perfect silence, in the depths of q great abyss-massive clouds tower ing up on all sides. q snowy white mass below. But no sign of earth-no sign of anything human. Not q sound, not a sign of life What peace What bliss Horrors What s that report? The bal loon must havo burst. Oh, nonsensel Keep still! It's only a fold of the stuff nipped by tho netting being suddenly released; that's all.
 We'll, We are falling, for see the bits of paper apparently ascending. And we must take care, for the coldness and dampness of this cloud will cause the gas to contract, and we shall fall rapid ly. So get bag of ballast ready, for We are already in the darkness of the cloud, Now the gas bag shrinks and writhes, and the loose folds rustic to- gether. and it gets darker You can feel the breeze blowing upward against your face or hand held over the edge of the car. We'll, that s not to Do wondered at, for remember We arc falling, say 1000 feet q minute, which IS the same thing as if We were going along ten miles an hour sitting ill dogcart. Not quite the same, you say-you' d sooner be ill the cart? We'll, perhaps if the horse were going straight at wall, without the possibility of being able to stop him, you would think otherwise But look There is the earth again; so out with your ballast. Go on Pour out plenty; there $ no good economizing. Blaekwood's Magazine.
