UP IN A BALLOON.
Sensations Produced by It's Rising
and Falling.

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
balloon on the clouds! See the light
prismatic colors like halo around the
shadow Of the car. Here we are all
alone, in perfect silence, in the depths
OF great abyss-massive clouds tow
ering up on all sides, snowy white
mass below. But no sign of earth-no
sign of anything human. Not sound,
not sign of life! What peacei What
bliss! Horrors! What's that report
The balloon must have burst. Oh, nom
sense! Keep still It's only fold Of
the stuff nipped by the netting being
suddenly released: that'sall.
Well, we are falling, for, see the bits
of paper apparently ascending. And
we must take care, for the coldn ess and
dampness of this cloud will cause the
gas to contractand we shall fall rapidly.
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 together, and
it gets darker. You can feel the breeze
blowing upward against your face or
hand held over the edge of the car.
Well, that's not to be wondered at, for
remember we are falling, say 1000
feet minute, which is the same thing
as if we were going along ten miles
an hour sitting in a dogcart. Notquite
the same, you say-you' d-sooner be in
the cart? Well, perhaps if the horse
were going straight at a wall, without
the possibility of being athletic stop him.
you would think otherwise. But look!
There is the earth again; so out with
your ballast. Go onl Pour outplenty;
there's no good economizing.--Black.

THE FEMININE LAUGH.
Women Laugh to Reward the Teller
of the Joke.

Women Laugh to Reward the Teller
of the Joke.
Women do not, as rule, laugh at
Jokes. They generally laugh to reward
the teller of good thing, and not for
mirth at the thing told. In this
way a woman fulfills most definite
duty, for she laughs even when tho
story does not come off well. Her
laugh would not be so temperate or
SO punctual if it depended upon sense
Of humor.
1t is somewhat between q child's
laughter and mans, but most like a
child's. At almost every stage of his
early years a child laughs for mere
movement, and not for comedy or de-
rision at all. A little humor there may
be, in the earlier sense of the word. He
laughs at the humors and antics Of a
rather elder or rather more enterpris-
Ing child; but always from gayety, and
for interior reasons of Astounding breath
and blood.
Granted that woman has small
sense OF humor, she still owes her laugh
full. 1t is a positive debt. If she were
held to the duty of criticism. 1t would
be otherwise; but, as it is, she Is com
mitted to nothing. Her laugh is DO
evidence in the contention of humor
and wit, and it is but just that in this
too public opinion should relieve her
of responsibility. For nothing but
an expected silence or a ha!f-hearted
smile should be held really answerable.
If she were to enter upon the way of
criticism, she would be more or less
unready; it might be necessary to ex-
plain things 10 her, which confessedly
would be very dull.
Besides, the laugh Of Judgment and
criticism is also apt to be, on fit occa-
sion, also a laugh too much from the
heart; it takes deeper tones, and is no
longer the treble note undrowned. No;
men who invent the jokes may laugh
at them the open mouth of apprecia-
ton; women. if they would be kind.
must be more impartial.
A feminine laugh, too, has to be deco
rative. and so should be the laugh of
gayety rather than Of hurnor. There
c@n hardly be question as to thesweet-
est laugh to be heard among nations
of women-it is surely the French
woman. She has the softest MARBLE Of
all. II doves were not so serious, they
might remind Us of Partisan women
laughing together. The Italian laugh
IS happy enough, but it is not quite so
independent Of the subject of laughter;
it has a iollity all its own. 1t is some
what unclvilized, but needs no civiliz-
ing. But its principal characteristic
Is the contralto tone proper to the won-
an who is to the last somewhat of q
peasant. The laughter Of English
women is too various for any brief de-
scTiptipn, for English women laugh
not according to their race, but accord
ing to their caste, as caste has lately
been revised and redistributed. It.
may be said that in caste also the treble
note, the ready, the immediate. fills up
to its own place-the top-and is au-
dible there for ell its splendid quail

whom were busy at their machines when
the detectives appeared. These typewriter
operators were writing letters addressed
20 hotel clerks in various places over the
country. and these letters were of such a
nature as TO arouse suspicious OF the po-
lice. IL was then decided to search the
prisoners room. and there the detectives
found a lot of printed and other material
which led them TO believe that they had
nipped in the bud a skillful scheme for
wholesale swindling.
ON the letter heads of a mythical con-
Germ. called the Chirm Merk Chemical

note was written to various hotel clerks:
