The Temperatures Under Us.

Beneath the peninsula of lower
Michigan there are briues and sheets
of mineral water lying in basin form
and very rich in salt, bromides, ETC.,
and of great medical and CONNER
cial value. Thoy have been reached
by numerous wells, which run down
to about ), 600 foet near the center
of tho basin, as at Alma and Bay
City. Tho water comes up from the
bottom of these wells hot Cover 90

rapid increase in temperature than

nous ComstOCk lode, where fabu-

showed perhaps the most rapid in
crease in temperature that man has
ever dared to face. 1t was, however,
doubtless due to the action of hot
water rising from still greater
depths-prObably the same waters
that deposited the silver ores-still

A gentleman who was invited out

the dining room table was of pecul-

The globes were of various colors,

What is the object of having the

asked of his hostess.

Wild Traits In Tame Animal.

Dogs arc rarely dangerous to do
nestle sheep. The determined hos
tility shown to them at such times
is a relic Of tho old, wild instinct,
when. tho horned flock on the noun
tain sido defended their young
against jaCkals, dholes and wolves
An angry owe will stamp her foot
when dog comes within sight.
This is probably a relic of an ancient
method of signaling the approach of
foe. But it is also a threat, for
many animals akin to the sheep use
their sharp hoofs with terrible eff
feet. Deer. will destroy snakes by
jumping on thom and ripping them
to ribbons with outward strokes of
their hoofs. Nearly all antelopes use
this method of attack, and hunters
have been killed by the hoofs of
nylghau, the great Himalaya ante
lope.
A wild sheep in his native country
IS no trifling antagonist The horns
OF the Owls poll and argali are enor-

or that dear dead day, long lost to sight

The stately poplars, gaunt and tall,
sui stand a solemn row.
AS the dav of our tryst below the wall
In the twilight and the snow
The day you kissed I'VE for all in all,

GcrInnn Village Life.

Heidelberg is in natural location
a curiously situated place. Tho
town is built 1t the point where the
Neckar river shortly before it emp
ties into the Rhine energies from a
winding dofile in tho mountains
The river ahutS So close to tho noun
tain edge there Is scarcely room for
a town, SO that tho houses have boon
stretched out along one principal
street. This IS the SO called Haupt.
straSSo, or main street, which is Of
course neither wonderful nor beau
tiful. 1t is simply u winding road
way whcro ono may observe various
phases of German village life. Tho
shops are nearly all located here,
where not only the natives trade,
but where arc found all those vari-
Gus novelties and souvenirs which
are distinctly of tho place and which
tourists are So addicted to carrying
home with them. The other lead
ing street, and tho ono most fro
quented by Foreigners, is the so call
cd Anlago, n broad earth path be-
meath n double limo of trees, adjoin-
ing Mt one end small park. This
is tho aristocratic quarter, whore
nearly all the hotels are situated
In common with all German towns
and cities, the soldier lifo on this
street and elsewhere is very much
in evidence. A regiment with its
stirring music goes marching
through tho town once or twice a
day to keep alive the martial spirit
of the people and to impress them
with tho power of tho government
1t would seem that there might DO
in Germany ono or two particularly
pretty little towns, such as this is,
perhaps excluded from tho military
jurisdiction, where those people
might resort who are not so fond of
the army. The German government,
however, trusts 50 ittlo in tho in
nato goodness and reliability of the
individual that such a course has
never commended itself to it.-Hei-
