The Rainfall.

There is always more or less guess
work concerning the amount of rain
that falls during any storm period
Throughout the United States the
amount that falls on any one day rare
Iy exceeds one inch. There are certain
portions of the globe, however, that
are frequently and others only occa-
sionally deluged with water On the
southern slope Of the Himalaya noun
tains, at an altitude of 1900 feet, 61O
inches of rainfall have been registered
in single year, of which amount 147
inches OBJECT 3 inches fell in the month
Of June At a meteorological station in
latitude is degrees, near the western
boundary of Hindhstan, the average
Eainfall for fifteen years was 254
inches. In the northwestern part of
England. at an altitude Of 1900 feet.
the average annual rainfall is LAG
inches.
The wonderful record given above is
still more phenomenal when we con
slider the fact that all the moisture the
atmosphere is capable Of holding at
any one time would cover the entire
surface of the globe to depth of less
than four inches should it all be in

An Unnecessary Distinction.

The two expressions '.by and by and
'by the bye are really derived from
the same original word, and the words
'sby" and bye have the same general
sense. But the spelling bye has long
been used in the second of these
phrases without any real reason for
the change. We should not speak Of
a bye law or a bye path, and yet many
are careful to write "by the bye and
'by the by In goodbye" there might
be some reason for keeping the final
'se,' since it stands for the word '.ye.
in the shortened form of God be with
ye::'' but where so much has been
dropped the te'' is hardly worth keep
ing, especially as the old meaning is
seldom recalled st. Nicholas.

Discovering the Kangaroo.

In the year ITO Captain Cook sailed
into Botany bay in his ship, the En-
deavor. a foraging or exploring party
brought back to him the news Of the
discovery of d new and strangely form
ed animal. 1t was described as mouse
colored III hue and of the size of a
greyhound. But that which struck
Cooks men as most singular was its
movements. 1T sprang or Ieaped with
great swiftness, by the aid Of its long
hind limbs" while the possession of a
strong tail was also noted. On July
II a Mr.. Gore, one of Cooks party,
shot kangaroo, the name by which
the animal was known to the natives
At their dinner on Sunday, July IS,
ITO, they dined off kangaroo joint and
pronounced the meat to be excellent
eating AS early as I'LL, however. a
Dutch traveller in Australia, of the
name of De Bruins, had captured a
kangaroo, which he took to Batavia
alive, so that Cook practically redis-
covered the family.
