Dodging
Lightning

Lightning, they say, seldom strikes
twice in the same spot Be that as it
may it is certain that 1t could not pos
sibly be more cratic than the various
plans for escaping it. Leaving the
scientist and the lightning-rod man
any two people agree upon what is
best to be done when the storm comes
up. One will tell you that the first
thing to do is to close all the doors
and windows. A draft through the
house, they say, is the very thing
lightning wants to wreak destruction.
They point out that many OF those
killed were seated by an open window
when struck. Others, while agreeing
with this theory regard it as but par
tial precaution, saying that the fluid
will enter the chimney and come out
at the fireplace. They also point to re-
corded cases where people were
shocked before an open fireplace. So
what boots it to close the windows if
you cannot close the chimney? Con-
trawise others will assert that the
only really safe plan is to open all the
doors and windows so that if the
lightning enters it will not have to
tear chunk out of the side of the
house to get out. A third class advise
you to close the front windows and
open the back ones. Nothing, they
say, attracts lightning like heated air.
You should not have a draft. but you
should not have the house full Of hot
air. Do not stay out in the open, say
some. Sit out on the porch, say others.
DO not have any metallic object in
your hands, is another warning and
some leave their steel rod umbrellas
at home in consequence. The attic and
the cellar have an equal number of
adherents as place of safety. In the
attic there will not be so much of the
house to fall on you. In the cellar you
stand chance Of escaping under lne
debris, say the others. Bed is the
safest place say great many Then
someone recalls the woman who was
lifted clear out on the floor by bolt
and once more uncertainty reigns.
Many women spend the summer in
terror of a thunderstorm. They hunt
the darkest corner of the house or they
draw the window shades and light the
gas and stuff their fingers in their
ears, but they are in mortal terror all
the same. One Ohio woman, who was
shocked once, has devised lightning
chair to which she fees when the thun-

Refri6erators
for Hats

Men who, during the hot weather
have been compelled to wear silk hats,
have hit upon an ingenious dodge to
rid themselves of the consequent in
convenience. A neat aluminium ap-
paratus has been devised which fits
into the crown of tall hats, containing

self an efficient freezing mixture-and
this also percolates through small tubes
fixed inside the hat all over that part
of the head which is covered.
In this way, not only is GOODNESS of
the head insured, but, by cooling the
blood which is forced up to the brain, a
general lowering of temperature
throughout the body results by wear
ing one of these iced hats.
Similar experiments with an iced
body belt have been made, and found
to give most satisfactory results, so
that there is no longer any real neces-

Jewish Farmers
* in Jersey

William Stainsby, the chief of the
bureau of statistics of New Jersey, has
published pamphlet entitled THE
Jewish Colonies of South Jersey: His
torical Sketch Of Their Establishment
and Growth" which contains a mass
of interesting information regarding
the successes and failures of Jewish
farmers. The work done in the colonies
at Alliance, Rosenhayn, Woodbine and
Carmel is set forth in statistical detail,
showing conclusively that the Jewish
farmer is no longer a thing of the
future. But the pamphlet also proves
that failures are still among the posi-
bilities, for all the attempts made at
Mizpah, Rega, Malaga, Ziontown, AL
berton and Hebron have been unsuc-
cessful. Mr. Stainsby attributes the
cause of these failures to the fact that
in all these cases the attempts at col
OnizatiOn were made by spectators
whose capital was just as insufficient
as their honesty of purpose. 'The idea
of these spectators" says Mr.. Stains
by, was that they could get these
poor exiles into their clutches, pay
them starvation wages and make a big
profit out of them; but the Jews failed
to be impressed by the glittering in
ducements held out and did not come
in the large numbers anticipated" The

Original Home of Golf.

The Scotsman contends that golf is
Scotch sport to which poetical refer
ence was made in Adamson's "Muses
Threnodie," published at Perth as long
ago as 1893. The terms used in the
sport are for the most part Scotch. But
the Dutch assert that it was first
played in Holland on the ice, and be-
fore 1888 the Dutch poet Bredero de-
scribed how 1.-The golfer, with ice spurs
on, stands ready to smith with ashen
club weighted with lead, or his Scot
fish cleek of loaded box" But while
this may be the earliest poetical ref
erence to the game, it does not show
that Holland is the original home of
golf. The reference to the Scottish
cleek" seems at first sight to point
rather to Standardization Sun.

Gratifying Success
Reported from the
Colonies Located There

conclusion to be drawn from the facts
presented in the pamphlet seems to be
that, according to the writer, where
colonies were started with the primary
intent of making farmers out of their
inhabitants, the scheme was successful,
and factories built later to provide
work during the winter and for the
surplus population only added to the
prosperity of the settlement; but where
the factory was the primary object the
attempts resulted in failures.-Brook-

AS GOOD AS A SEA SERPENT.
A Large Mctcorite Falls at n Seaside

The sea serpent has failed TO put in
his annual appearance at the coast re
sorts this summer, but substitute
has been found, says an eastern eN.
change Atlantic City was startled Ia,
other day when an unusually lOut
clap of thunder, accompanied by a
binding flash Of lightning and a slight
trembling Of the earth, occurred
shortly after four o'clock. At first il
was thought that the bolt had struck
a large building, but this was found to
be incorrect
Later il was learned that a large
meteorite weighing nearly three tons
had fallen upon Chelsea Heights, al
most a mile north Of Columbia avenue
and across the Beach ,horoughfare.
1t had fallen upon a piece of waste
land and had buried itself TO depth
OF nearly ten feet in the soil. The
shape of the mass of mineral matter
from space is somewhat irregular,
though resembling 10 slight degree
an egg fat;ened upon one side, with
a corresponding protuberance upon
the other. Its color is blacklist gray,
streaked with bright scintillating
lines, which run irregularly across the
upper portion. The presence of sui
phur was observed from the smell
which permeated the air for several
feet around It.
All day long crowds went over to
gaze upon this strange visitor from
other worlds. 1t is said that a local
scientist has communicated with the
Smithsonian institution in Washing
ton as to what shall be done with the
meteorite.

He wears a SLOUGH hat, has the

and has the reputation of caring for
nothing and nobody. One of STRAIT

one had grown too small to seat his

PANTALOONS WITH LINING.
They Used 10 BE Worn Hut Are Never
Heard OF in These
Days.

An old clothing merchant in Chicago,
whose sons have been his successors
for many years, was in the store the
other day for the first time in seven
years, reports the Tribune.
Il suppose you have no pantaloons
with lining" he said to his eldest boy,
who replied that he had never heard of
such a thing.
I'VE used to keep them in stock"
continued the father. AS a rule |
think most pantaloons with lining
were homemade. Your mother made
the first l ever saw, and | wore EN-. |
think the lining was of some sort of
cambria. But there were a few of my
old customers who bought ready-made
clothes OF me, many years ago, and
they insisted that their pantaloons
should be lined. They had an idea that
lining made the fit better. But the
tailors l employed hated the work, and
always charged more for putting in
the lining.
"One of my customers, who wouldn't
live long if he had to wear ready-madc
clothes now, took fancy to a pair of
unlined pantaloons. but refused to
make the purchase unless had lining
put in. That was in 1850. My tailor
said he never heard of such a thing,
but | insisted. He had to take the
pantaloons apart-unstitch the seams
md then put in the lining. 1t took him
over week to do the job. The Gus
toner got mad in waiting and refused
to take the pantaloons. | sued him
and got judgment, and he wouldn't
speak to me for over Il year ! saw him

his grandchildren in an automobile.
suppose he would have got hot if had
reminded him of the time when he
wore lined pantaloous, and he had
straps to them besides, so as to keep
them in shape. | remember when a
man who didn't wear straps to his
pantaloons was not considered well
dressed, and that was right here in
Chicago"

MARKED SALMON RETURN.

The fact that the run Of salmon on

WHICH PATH ?
Divergent paths await our feet

Divergent paths await our feet
We pilgrims Of transient day
One 10 broad, enticirg street,
One seemeth but d narrow way.
The first is paved with good intent,
Adorned with pleasures here and there,
And though concealed with one consent,
Self, self pervades it everywhere.
Broad Is the road; soon found, It's true;
We Journey forth with hearts so light
All earthly joys stand full in view
And life indeed seems very bright.
But soon, ah soon, the thorns that sin
Hath planted over all the earth,
Do pierce the feet and poison cen
Our souls and check our needless mirtn.
Still farther on this selfish path
Which erst appeared so smooth, so mild
Is rougher grown; now fierce the wrath
or storms that gather dark and wild!
Oh! trav'ler, quick, forsake the way
That leads to sorrow, ruin, death!
Turn to the right, see Hopes bright ray
For you a glorious dawning hath.
That narrow way, so plain, so straight,
Grows fairer, brighter to the end;
Which, though you reach 1t soon or late,
Eternal blessings shall attend.
Turn, then, and find surcease of care;
Leave self behind, seek what is best;
Do good, and round thee everywhere
Shall dwell Gods presence, ever blest.
