For the sea breeze probably does not
extend, at the utmost, more than thirty
miles off the coast, and therefore should
not have much effect on the tide swell.
In summer time the suns rays heat
the land greater than the sea, and then
this heated air rises, the cooler air from
the ocean rushes in to fill up the va
cuum, and a twenty mile per hour sea
breeze is often the result. This should
be reversed during the night, when,
the land cooling off again and below
the oceans temperature, a land breeze
should result. The next days sunlight
should of course bring back the sea
breeze.

An ImprOvident Young Man Who Will Al
ways Have a Dollar In His Pocket.
"Queer things happen at funerals, "

ciated at many, land l remember one
occasion which impressed me greatly
ON account of the standing of the family
i'll which it happened, as we'll as from
the peculiar circumstances surrounding
the incident-the bestowal of money on
q dead man. ="
The narrator was urged to relate the
story, and on the promise that no names
would be mentioned he continued:
"It was funeral at the house of one
of my parishiOners, and was greatly
surprised when l received notice to at
tend and conduct the services. had not
heard Of any member of the family be-
ing i'll, nor had l been summoned to the
deathbed, but jumped to the cOnclu-
sion that it was an old servant who had
died
cit proved to be a bad sOn-the black
sheep of the family-whose shadow had
not darkened their doors for years, but
who, it was always believed, had been
supported at distance far enough to
prevent him from disgracing the family
by his misdeeds.
"Now he was brought home dead,
and / was expected to give him as little
blame and as much praise as was con
sistent with the dignity Of my Office anC
his relation to the family.
