stopping a Horse with a Sermon.

The late Archbishop TAFT of Canterbury
once made an effective use of a sermon.
Driving down Holloway HILL he was con-
fronted by u runaway horse with heavy
dray making straight for his carriage. He
threw sermon in its face.
The horse was so bewildered by the flut-
tering leaves that it swerved and paused.
The driver regained control, the sermon
was picked up and the divine proceeded on
his way.
II don't know" he said to his compan-
ion, the present archbishop of York,
whether my sermon did any good to the
congregation, but it was of considerable
service to myself. STRAND Magazine

How It Is Done

"Up against it again!" gloon1ily re-
marked the man who pronounces "ath-
letic" in four syllables.
"How's that?" asked the woman who
wears white gloves with black stitching.
Thought had sure thing the Other
day, and was thrown as usual. Was
in a bicycle store when a young fellow
came in to buy cyclometer. Said his

miles. Was trying for a.season's record,
and hated to begin over again. Sales
man said he could fix it. Took new cy-
clometer, fixed it on Wheel up-ended the

Reeled off $50 miles in no time Thought
saw my graft. Went to a guy knew
and bet him 1 could ride more miles in
week than he could. 1t was to be de-
cided by our cyclometers. Bought new
cyclometer, went up in the attic and be-
gan to turn. Struck hot box at the
2S7th mile and stuck fast. Never hap

sport of the day. The mans friend was
an experienced fisherman, and soon be-
gan to haul in the barracuda and yellow
tail, while he at first caught nothing. AS
usual, he could not understand it, and
he cursed his fisherman's luck in mo
uncertain tones" as the political plat
forms say
But his turn was to come. Suddenly
there came a tremendous pull at his
line, and he jumped nearly out of the
boat in his excitement. Pulling in his
line, hand over hand, he discovered that
he had a good sized yellowtail at the
end of it. To his excited mind the fish
appeared to be a veritable monster of
the deep
The struggle was a lively one for a
time, but finally the fish got tired and
came slowly toward the boat, fighting
all the way. Just as the man was about
to triumphantly scoop it into the boat,
the finny prey, as if making one last
desperate, dying effort, started back to-
ward the abode of McGinty.
1t was too much for the nervous, ex-
cited man. Springing to his feet he
jumped headlong into the water, aim
ing for the slowly disappearing yellow
tail. He reached the fish, grasped its
slippery sides with a determination
that would brook no getting away, luck
lily inserting the fingers of one hand in
side the gilTs.
AS he reached the top of the water the
fish, still in his grasp, the horror-stricken
friend and the boatman, boat hooks in
hand, prepared for the work of rescue.
AS the boathook sunk into the mans
coat collar and he was being hauled to
the side of the boat he did not forget
what he was there for. Elevating the
fish as high as he could, he shouted as
loud as the salt water in his throat
would let him:
Never mind me. Save the fish,

west all the way from the coast to the

west all the way from the coast to the
top of the mountain, over sixty miles.
In southern Oregon, though the breeze
is feebler than in Southern California
and later in rising, 1t is none the less the
same breeze, feebler because there is
not SO much heat rising from the great
| forests of pine. But from the vast open
country east Of the Cascades there is
still enough suction to make a we'll de-
fined and regular breeze which shows all
| the peculiarities of our breeze. At 5000
feet there on the Cascades the breeze
was still from the west But that Is not
remarkable, for have found it the same
at 10000 feet on the San Bernardino
range, yet the same day on the top Of
Greyback, 11,770 feet, it was as strong
from the east as at San Pedro. On my
return to San Bernardino I found that
the sea breeze had been blowing all the
time 1 was upon the mountain, and that
in the valley there had been no east or
north wind.
The norther or desert wind is one of
the most peculiar known, and it IS
doubtful if any one can satisfactorily
explain it. AS factor in the climate it
can be almost ignored, for the number OF
| days in the year when it Is felt Is really
very small. AS a whole it is not un-
pleasant. and is one of the purest and
driest winds that fans the earth. Yet in
many places it is at times uncomforta-
bly, strong, though never dangerous to
any we'll built structure. In some places
it is from the north and in others from
the east, with variations between the
two points. But it is always the same
wind, its direction varying with the for
nation of the hills. The area over which
1t reaches is immense. 1t is felt far
north of San Francisco at the same time
when it is blowing strongly 200 miles be-
low the line of Mexico and is probably
blowing down into the Gulf of Califor
mia about the same time. Yet strangely
enough it reaches but short distance
out to sea and its force is quickly lost
after passing the shore
Though this wind Is more common
late in the fall and in early winter, the
fact that it may come at any time in the
summer and for two or three days coun-
teract the regular sea breeze makes its
origin very puzzling. That it is born of
the desert is evident from its great dry
ness, which often reaches the minimum
of possible humidity. In winter, when
storm wind is gathering, If the north
wind arises 1t soon dissipates the moist
ure there is in it. And on the morning
of the day when this wind begins the
fog bank vanishes from the distant
ocean and far away into the western
horizon the water shimmers as clear as
If there were not trace of moisture in
the air above it.
1t is nevertheless quite certain that
when we feel this wind the most severe
ly it is quite still both on the Mojave and
Colorado deserts, and that their heavi-
est winds are when our sea breeze is
blowing. This may be on the principle
that wind is strongest on the over side.
OF a range and not on the side where It
strikes. But here we are met by the
puzzling fact that in some of the passes,
like Cajon 1t is comparatively calm

Hammers

Hammers are represented on the mon
uments of Egypt twenty centuries be-
fore our era. They greatly resembled
the hammers now in use, save that there
were no claws on the back for the ex-
traction of nails. The first hammer was.
undoubtedly a stone held in the hand.
Claw hammers were invented some time
during the middle ages. Illuminated
manuscripts of the eleventh century
represent carpenters with claw ham
mers. Hammers are of all sizes, from
the dainty instruments used by the jew
eler, which weigh less than half an
ounce, to the gigantic fifty-ton hammer
of ship-building establishments, some
of which weigh as much as fifty tons and
have falling force of from ninety to one
hundred. Every trade has its own ham
mer and it's own way of using it.
The herald., 1897-07-04

the wind is supposed to arise. In some
of the passes it will blow hard and in
others not while the sea breeze is quite
sure to be felt in all of them.
If this wind iS caused by suction II
must be far out at sea and cover a large
area If it Is caused by the outward
pressure of air descending over Arizona.
Utah and Nevada, as we'll as the desert,
why does it's effect stop at the coast ?
A vast descending body Of air along the
western slope of the Rocky mountains
might cause some movement on the Pa
cific coast. But there are so many ways
for it to flow to the south that 1t would
have to be very immense to cause such
a wind over nearly a thousand miles
of the Pacific coast. The cooling Of that
Rocky mountain slope in the fall might
tend to explain some of this. but fails
entirely to explain the existence of the
wind in summer at times when it should
be hot all along that slope.
The storms of winter are accompanied
with a wind which depends upon causes
far away. This wind varies with the
section and Is revolving wind, or gentle
cyclone on very large scale, blowing
toward a common center, which is also
very large. At Los Angeles it will gen.
orally be from the east when it is rain
ing well. At San Diego it is quite GER
tain to be from the south during that
same storm, changing in this way with
locality, but moving toward the storm
center. I think Al miles an hour is
the highest recorded velocity for this
wind at San Diego where it comes di-
rectly from the sea, with nothing on
land to break it's force. That was in
February, 1878. This wind may be in
creased in a few places by narrowing
into canyons but it is never dangerous,
rarely unpleasant even for day, and
almost always welcome. The desert
wind is unpleasant only by contrast with
the usual sea breeze, and on the prairies
of the Upper Mississippi basin would
be considered a very nice little breeze,
warm, dry and comfortable. Which the
same merely proves that the better we
are eff in this world the more we COM
plain about trifles.

If not Professor Koch, why not some
one else? Fame and fortune await the
rising young scientist who discovers the
germ, bacillus, mcrobe, animalcule, or
whatever it is, of the California flea and
turns it against itself, with the result
that the puleX canis Is eXterminated for
evermore, world without end.
The flea is no respecter of persons, eX-
cept that he is fondest of the young and
tender. disdaining the old and the nico-
tine saturated, when he can do better.
He is harder to run down than San
Francisco murder mystery and when
you do finally get him, he isn't there. He
has murdered more sleep than all the
Macbeths in the world put together. The
flea is mean and malignant he takes
unfair advantages and never gives his
victims chance if he can help it. He
is elastic, malleable, transformable. 1t
is almost impossible to kill him. The
only safe and sure way to accomplish
his taking off is to immerse him in pail
of water far beneath the surface until
you count one hundred to slow time and
measure. And then you are taking
chances.
Whence he cometh and how he arrives
at his destination no man knows; but
he gets there and stays tlNre. The flea
is the curse of an otherwise fair and
perfect land.
Let the scientists get to work on the
flea. Let us know what is bad for him,
what will exterminate him. Produce
his bacillus.
They are telling a good story on
a town business man that will
bear repeating here. 1t is fish story,
but it is true one, and if you don't be-
lieve it, you may ask the man.
The hero of the story is one of the men
who are always busy, who give their
personal attention to every detail Of
their business, and who imagine that
everything will go to smash if they are
absent single day.
He is of very nervous disposition, as
one may readily infer from the fore
going description. The man used to be
successful fisherman back in one of the
interior states, where sixteen-ounce
trout or a fve-pound bass sets limits to
even a piscatorial imagination. He has
lived in Los Angeles for great many
years, yet he never left his business long
enough to enjoy good salt water fish
ing trip until one day last week.

The man used to be forever telling how
he would like to SO fishing whenever he
could get day off," and, after many
years. one of his cronies succeeded in
persuading him to go down to Redondo
one night and go fishing the next morn
ing.
They were up bright and early A
fishing boat had been chartered and they
were soon bound for the fishing grounds.
The business man was very nervous. He
had been in the harness so long that it
actually made him nearly i'll to take
day off.
In due time the fishing grounds were
reached. Lines and bait were ready,

: FISH AND FLEA :
4 OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

Murder will out This is trite and
true saying, even in these modern days
of successful and hidden crime. And ii
has at last come true with respect to the
Germ.
The germ has for countless generations
been the promoter of disease and the
chosen instrument of death. That SUI
preme foe to mortality no longer rides
the traditional pale horse. He simply
mounts a germ and rides triumphant.
With the discovery of the germ rude
shock has been given to another time
honored tradition-the one to the effect
that death is visitation of Providence.
1t is a good thing that this pious i'm
position has been done away with. The
discovery of the germ has fastened the
responsibility, and properly, too, upon
the ignorance and carelessness of man
in many phases and varieties of dis
ease.
The presence of the germ as known
factor in disease and mortality has led
to another discovery that is hardly less
beneficent. 1t is the fact that germ
diseases may be innoculated against in
many cases. The germ cures as we'll as
kills.
But all this is preliminary, and leading
up to the real matter in hand, as 1 may
say. Professor Koch. who is the most
prominent germ discoverer of modern
times, has been engaged to go to South
Africa to see if he cannot discover and
enlist the services of a germ that will
stop the ravages of the rinderpest. That
dreaded disease has long been the
scourge of South Africa, and it now
threatens to entirely exterminate the
cattle in that region.
Those best acquainted with the germ
and its eccentricities and Professor
Kochs great power and control over it
have the fullest confidence that he will
be successful in his mission. The June
Review of Reviews suggests that the
professor be engaged to go to South
Australia, there to wage war against the
hares or rabbits, which have overrun
that country for number of years past,
and which have made it almost impos-
sible to raise a green crop of any kind.
Everybody knows the story of how the
rabbits were introduced in Australia,
and how they multiplied, and
it is not necessary to repeat the story
here. The scheme is, of course, to dis
cover a germ that will spread disease
among the rabbits and kill them off as
the grain falls before the knives of a
moving machine. to use the modern
adaptation. In the one case the germ
kills; in the other it cures.
