The Fear of Lightning.

The thunderstorms which prevail
in the summer season are source of
terror to thousands on thousands of
people, though the danger from them
is far less than it is from most all
other forms of peril The sharp
flashes of lightning and the reverber-
ating reals of thunder exercise mys-
FERROUS and powerful effect both on
many people and animals who tremble
without knowing why. Yet there is
little cause for fear. There are COM
paratively few victims of lightning
and the risk that any person is eX-
posed to is infinitesmal, far smaller
than that from numerous other
sources of which little or no account
is taken. A writer in recent num-
Der OF The Electrical Review makes
the following statement that will in
terest all those who suffer from the
dread of thunderstorms:
The fact of the matter seems to be
that lightning is very nearly harmless.
Somewhere about one hundred people
are killed by it annually in the
United States, out of a population of
nearly $4,000, 900; mere are killed by
the nails in their shoes or by falling
of chimneys. The real trouble seems
to be that thousands upon thousands
of people are badly &c red several
times every summer by the lightning
or rather by the thunder which ac-
companies it, Far be it from us 20
shake the faith of any timorouS soul
who believes the feather bed to be a
haven of safety during thunder
storm. The time -honored rules
about sitting in drafts or near open
windows or standing under trees are
well worth observing, especially if
they give the individual any addition
al sense of security and alleviate his
mortal dread and distress. We can
not see that any of the discussion has
proved that the lightning rod has
been of the least use. At best this
would be negative proof were it pos
sible to produce it. As it stands,
however, rural districts are the home
OF the lightning rod and the place
where lightning does nearly all its
damage. We do not see MANY light
ming rods in cities, nor do we hear
much about the evil effects OF light
ming in them.
When only 100 people are killed an
nually throughout the whole country
by lightning, the very slight risk in
Cured by each individual among the
50 millions of inhabitants can readily
be appreciated. Yet it is probable
that the timid will continue to suffer
agonies of fear with every recurring
thunderstorm, as the fear Of lightning
like other unreasonable terrors is not
to be overcome merely by the knowl-
edge that it is comparatively one of
the least dangers to which we are ex-
posed.

Iowa school Libraries.

The new Iowa school library law pro-
vides that every school district must
annually set aside from 5 to Is cents
for each child of school age, the
money to go toward the purchase of
books for the library. During the
academic year the books are to be
kept in the school house. but during
vacation time they are to be kept for
the use of the pupils in the house of
same one selected by the board. AS
the books may be loaned to persons
not pupils, it is suggested that the
country stores be used as vacation
quarters for the library, and the pro-
prietors of those places. in view of
the additional trade which the pres
ence of the books would bring. are
eager to comply. The books to be pur-
chased are limited to a list which the
state board of education is to make

facts about Ma or's Cement.
The multitudeS who use this standard ar
tiCle know that it is many hundred per cent
better than other dement's for which similar
claims are made. out great many do not
know why. The simple reason is that Mr.
Ma jor uses the best material ever discover
ed and other manufacturers do not use
them. because they are too expensive and
do not allow large profits. Mr. Major tells
US that one of the elements OF his cement
costs 81 IS a pound. and another costs = 65
a gallon while large share of the SO-Called
cements and liquid glue upon the market
are nothing more than a SXteen-Cent glue.
dissolved in water or CitriC aCid,and in some
cases altered slightly in color and door by
the addition OF cheap and useless materials.
Ma iOr'S cement retailS at fifteen cents and
twenty-five cents a bottle, and when deal
er tries to sell substitute you can depend
upon it that that his only object is to make
large profit.
The profit on Majors cement is as much
as any dealer ought to make on any cement.
And this is dOubly true in view of the fact
that each dealer gets his share of the bene
fit of Mr.. Majors advertising, which now
amounts to over 5000 month, throughout
the country. Established in 1876.
