According to the calculations of John
Berkenbine, the drainage area Of the
Mississippi river is 100000 square
miles, including nearly all of the coun-
try from the Alleghenies to the Rock
les and from Canada to the Gulf of
Mexico. In his communication to the
Engineers Club Mr.. Berkenbine esti-
mates that one inch of rainfall evenly
distributed over this area would equal
q, 7SO 900 900, 900 gallons of water. If
the average rainfall for the entire
area amounts to twenty inches it
would equal 535 900, 900, 100000 gallons
of water, or if the average rainfall
should be twenty-three inches it
would equal 1,6O6, 100000, 100000 gal
Ions of water. The river has an aver
age flow of 664,000 cubic feet per Sec
ond, or 81, $4,000 gallons per minute.
or 1900 800 600 gallons per hour, or

1t is reported that James B. Gentry,
the murderer of Madge Yorke, con-
eastern penitentiary for life, has not
only recovered a vigorous degree of
health, but has become the center Of
admiring attentions at that institu-
ton. His cell is made a sort of Mecca
by theatrical people visiting this city,
and the memory of his atrocious crime
is already growing faint. Thus we
make heroes of our villains.

Many persons appear to labor under
the delusion that it is necessary 20
avoid sunlight for fear of spelling the
complexion, when, as matter Of fact,
the suns rays are necessary to give it
the delicate tinting of beauty and
health. Air is necessary to the first
inspiration and the last expiration of
our lives. but the purity and activity
of the atmosphere depend upon the
warming rays of the sun, while our
bodies require light for their healthy
stimulus. 1t is we'll known that with
ont solar heat there can be no proper
vegetable growth, and it is equally
necessary for the beauty and perfec-
ton of animal development. 1t be-
booyes us, therefore, to see that our
homes are open to the suns rays and
are made as bright and cheerful as pos
sible. and they ought to freely admit
the sunlight. 1t is we'll known that
disease which has baffied the skill of
nbvsicians has been known to yield
when the patients were removed from
dark rooms to light and cheerful apart
ments. Light is especially necessary
FOR the healthy growth of children.
