second at from 1900 to 4, 600 meters
and the upper one at from 5000 to
8, 600 meters above the surface of the
earth. These are, to an extent separate
currents, flowing each with its own
velocity. At the bottom of each of the
layers the stratus clouds are formed,
and at the top of each of the layers oc-
cur the cumulus clouds. This suggests
that the stratus originate at the bottom
of a moving current and the eumulus at
the top. 1t is probable, then. that the
stratus owe their origin to the difference
in velocity and temperature of the two
layers. while the cumulus are formed
by ascending currents within the layer
of air. Professor f. FL. Bigelow.

IT CURED THE COOK.

The Result of Her Masters Wres-
tling Match With the Telephone.
"About a week after the telephone
was installed-any electrical device is
always installed when it is brought
into the house-the cook was suddenly
taken i'll in the middle Of the night,
and was requested to telephone for the
doctor. It took me fully ten minutes Of
prolonged ringing and yelling before
could induce the central Office to put
me into communication with the doc-
tor. Then / sent an agonized howl
through the telephone, begging the doc
tor to come at once.

each person it took about ten minutes of
hard labor to induce him to say any
thing intelligible, and when the intel
ligible remark arrived it was to the
effect that the speaker was Brown or
Jones or Robinson; that he was not a
doctor, and that ne would infiict per-
sonal chastisement on the man who had
called him out of bed if he could find
the criminal in the morning.

apparently crowned with success. A
wretch who said he was the person of

hour and quarter after had first rung
