"Cllimney Climate,

Chimney climate" is the latest for
the climate that is to be found in all
large cities. It's characteristics, says
man of learning. are mildness, absence
of rain and frequency of fog as COM
pared with surrounding rural districts.
And he gives very clever explanation
of the presence Of the fog. It is actually
manufactured right under our eyes.
You know if you look crosswise at a
sunbeam you see in it myriad of very
small particles of dust, so densely crowd
ed together that some scientists even
attribute to them the color of the sky.
And there is also about us an invisible
vapor and this combines with the parti-
cles to give us fog. It may be so. It
sounds reasona BILE enough when one
takes into consideration the fact that
fogs are more frequent in large manu-
featuring cities than elsewhere. But if
it be so, what are men Of science about
that they don't find an antidote for
the evil?-Boston Transcript.

ADDERs FOND OF EGGS.
Little Reptiles With Remarkable
Swallowing Ability.

Swallowing Ability.
Among lot of very interesting speci-
mems of prepared animals sent to the
Museum of Natural History at Paris by
Father Guilleme, missionary in the
upper Kongo country, there is one group
of native adders, in the act of swallow
ing eggs, which excited uncommon in
terest. The most remarkable part of it
is the relative size of this snake and it's
common food. This adder is rather
small; it is seldom longer than % inch
es, and its thickness never exceeds an
inch. Yet it feeds regularly on duck
eggs, the smaller diameter of which is
almost two inches.
How the snake can get such an egg
into it's mouth is difficult to understand,
and the aspect of these reptiles while
swallowing the eggs is most strange.
The only way to account for this Pc
culiar manner of swallowing whole
eggs is the presence in the neck, just
back of the head, of a series Of pointed
bones slanted backward and piercing
the esophagus. These not only assist
to hold the egg in place, but act like a
saw. When the egg has advanced far
enough, their pressure will cut the egg
it's contents will continue into the stom-
ach, while the empty shell is crushed
afterward and thrown out through the
mouth "%-a 49,
While in the act of swallowing the
egg the snake is easily caught, for it is
then almost in state of complete in
ertia; it then looks very much like the
bulb as used by photographers for open
ing their shutters ...zaa

Sample Carriers.

The Philadelphia Record says: A pc
culiar trade followed by number of
men who haunt the big hotels is that of
sample carrier. The natty drummers
who visit the City are far above the
work Of Juggling around their sometimes
heavy samples. and SO there has arisen
a class Of men who make a living by
hanging around the hotels waiting an
opportunity to carry sample cases.
Sometimes these cases are very valu-
able, as when they contain samples Of
jewelry. It is not an infrequent sight to
see q spruce young fellow, followed by
q shabby individual carrying two black
cases, enter the portals Of one Of the big
hostelries. # the couple were traced

hotel safe was the objective point. Some

JAPANESE CUSTOMS.

Peculiar Practice of Formal Dinners.
Guests Carry Away Scraps. @
At the close of formal dinners in ia
pan the guests are presented with any
portion Of the meal they may fail to
eat However great or small the amount
they may fail to eat, it is carefully
wrapped up for them and they are ex-
pected to take it home with them. The
unique custom was followed at official
dinners until short time ago, when it
was discontinued, but the withdrawal
Of government example has not materi-
ally affected the practice The plan has
been followed for many years and it is
difficult to place its origin.
Peculiar as the custom is, it is not
without it's attractive features. The
husband who stays ont late at night
can pave the way to wifely pardon with
the neat and tempting parcel under bis
arm. The impecunious or temporarily
embarrassed can hold out enough to tide
them over several hungry days. The in
dulgent father or mother can pass the
sweets and carry them home to their
children. Half dozen satisfactory COM

There may be all kinds of elaborate
courses at dinner that one does not
care for, but the mental struggle Of say
ing no is not half SO hard when you
know you will get chance to carry the
food off and either give it to your chill
dren. feed it to your dogs and cats or
distribute it among your friends. The
Japanese practice is all that could be
expected. Each kind Of food is kept in
a separate parcel, and at the close of
the dinner the share of each guest is
made up in neat and artistic bundle,
