SECRET OF THE GLACIER.
Peculiarities and characteristics of
Ice Floes Ascertained by
Scientists.

AS soon as men were able to walk
on glacier from one end to the other,
they began to look and search and re-
member and compare, and finally they
discovered the secret of the thing In
"a Pleasure Book of Grindelwald,"
Mr.. Daniel p. Rhodes describes this
secret:
"They knew at the outset that ice is
very remarkable substance which be-
haves in manner peculiar to itself;
and they next learned that to three of
the properties of ice is due the phe-
nomenon of glaciers.
First, its Elasticity permits of its
flowing downward, under sufficient pres
sure, in the direction of the least re-
sistance. Glaciers may, therefore, ac-
commodate themselves to the most
tortuous valleys.
Another attribute of ice, in respect
of which it is singular among viscous
bodies, is its inability to yield much to
tension; hence, when there is strain
upon 1t, owing to variations in the
direction or in the rate of progress Of
a glacier, it is rent into great assures
called creVaSseS.
''These crevasses do not, as is some
times asserted, always penetrate to the
bottom of the glacier, but are of diff
ferent depths and shapes. Usually
these crevasses extend in the direction
of the width of the glacier, but on a
very steep incline they are often inter-
sected by longitudinal crevasses, and
in this manner are formed tall blocks
of ice, which are. soon worn by the
weather into the beautiful pinnacles
seen in the ice-falls of most large
glaciers.
ut is third attribute of ice which
enables glacier to maintain itself a
compact mass in spite of all this fric-
ton. Where two pieces of ice near the
melting point are brought into con-
tact they freeze together so perfectly
as to obliterate all traces of their orig
inal surfaces. To this property of ice,
which Mr.. Tyndall calls regulation, is
due not only the closing up of crew
asses, but also the very beginnings of
the glaciers themselves. 1t happens
this way:
"In the higher regions of the Alps
more snow falls in winter than is
melted in summer; and constant re-
arrangement of both the old snow and
the new is being caused, winter and
summer, by the alienation between
each day and night. The fresh dry
snow Is melted by the sun and after
ward frozen again in granules of ice
with the frequent repetition of this
process the particles become imper-
fectly fused together, forming that
peculiar crust called neve, which con-
stantly increases in depth until the
lower part of it, according to the prin-
ciple of regulation, is so compressed
by the weight of the mass above it as
to become a fairly compact body OF
ice, that seeks to escape by the most
convenient channel. This is the be-
ginning of the glacier"

his body, almost to his shoulders. More
as matter of personal amusement than
for any other reason, asked him how far

Tobacco Heart.

1t is estimated that about 20 per
cent. of the young men who recently
applied to enter the naval academy
have failed in the physical test, and
the failure was largely due to the use
OF tobacco, resulting in the irregular
beating of the heart Nowadays physi-
clans speak of "the tobacco heart" a
trouble caused by the excessive use of
the weed. When the smoker develops

make flange of couple of inches on
the upper sides of the skids. Sink cross
pieces on the under side, with screws to
hold the skids together. The width on
the inside must be about one inch broad
er than the width Of crates. Now halve
the side pieces at one end of each skid

sides, as shown in the cut, so they will
lap together and have straight line.

full length is used, block up under the
connection. These two skids cost me
eight dollars many years ago. In most
cases, one is all that would be needed
and their mode of use must be apparent
1t takes but few minutes to place them
to reach any point where apples OF
potatoes are to be stored. For instance,
our largest cellar is reached by two odoors,
and turn at right angle. In this case
one of the skids is run through one Of
the cellar windows; a barrel IS placed
bottom up for tl.e end of the skid to
rest on; the window sill supports the
center. and a couple of stakes driven in
the ground with a cross-piece nailed on
to support the skid at the proper height
to lay the crates on from the wagon. 1t
is astonishing how little time it takes to
unload in this way. If the crates are
emptied, roll them back on the wagon
with a pike pole. We do not empty
them, however, but stack them up"

Cured Her Rheumatism.

Deep Valley, Pa, Oct. 81 (Special).-
There is deep interest in Green county
over the cure of the little daughter of L. N.
Whipkey of Rheumatism. She was great
sufferer for five or six years and moth.
ing seemed to do her any good till she tried
Dodd's Kidney Pills. She began to i'm.
prove almost at once and now she is cured
and Gan rpn and play as other children do,
Mr.. Whipkey says:
Kidney Pills hsve done for my daughter;
they saved her from being a cripple per
haps for life"
Dodd's Kidney Pills have proved that
Rheumatism is one of the results of dis
eased Kidneys. Rheumatism is caused by
Uric Acid in the blood: If the Kidneys are
and consequently no Rheumatism. Dodd'!
Kidney Pills make the Kidneys right.

WINTERING CANE FRUITS,
Protection Which Should Be Given
Them During the Severe
Cold Weather.

II the farmer has hardy varieties Of
where the winters are mild, his work
is simple. If he has not already done it,
go through the patch, cutting out all
dead wood and weak canes, stub back"
the over-thrifty ones, burn the brush,
and his patch is ready for the win
ter.
However, II he lives in northern lati-
tudes or has tender varieties, his bushes
must have protective covering of some
sort, says Mark Haverhill, in Orange
Judd Farmer. Just before the ground
freezes, the old wood having been cut
out, go through the patch with a potato
or other heavy tined fork, and loosen
the ground around the roots of each
hill, carefully bend the bushes over till
they lie on the ground, weigh down and
cover with earth. Care should be taken
not to break any of the canes in laying
them down.
Some people bend the bushes over
cover the ends with dirt to hold them
and then cover all with straw or corn
stalks from which all grain has been
removed. The great objection to straw
Is that the mice nest in the straw and
during the winter eat the green bari,
from the canes, killing them. Not sc
much trouble has been experienced with
cornstalks, but probably earth is the
best for it is always handy.
AS soon as spring comes and the frost
is out of the ground the covering should
be removed and the bushes Strengthened
up.

FRIGHT RESTORES SPEECH.
Flames In Room Of Dumb and Para
Iyzed Man so Scare Him That Ho
Begins to Talk.

Iyzed Man so Scare Him That He
Begins to Talk.
Thomas Herring, dumb and para
iyzed old man living with his son-in-
law, e. Moss, in London, was so over
come with fright when a fire broke
out in his bedroom recently that he
suddenly began to speak.
Herring, who is II years old, was a
robust man, and up to a short time
ago was enjoying good health, even
working at a small blacksmith's forge.
One day he suffered a stroke of par
alysis, which also left him speechless.
The other evening two men rushed
in shouting that one of the upper
rooms was on fire. Running up stairs
TO the chamber of his father in law
Moss saw that the window curtains
were ablaZe and the woodwork was
Rlight. The wind had blown open the
window and this had knocked over a
lamp, causing the fire.
The paralyZed man lay on the bed
helpless, unable to stir hand or foot
OF raise cry of alarm. The agonized
look on his face showed, however,
that he realized the terrible nature Of
his position. The flames were smoth-
cred before they had made much pro-
gress, and the patient escaped unhurt.
Shortly after the family were sur
prised to hear the voice of the para
iyzed father. He was able to speak
distinctly few words and his speech
was coherent. The next days his pow
ers of speech were still further re-
stored and he regained the, complete
use of his voice and was able easily
30 converse with the family.
The restoration of the lost faculty
was evidently the outcome of the
shock which his system experienced
on the outbreak of the fire.
Although the paralysis of the limbs
remains, Mr.. Herring's health has i'm
proved so much that he has been re-
moved from the house to hospital
where 1t is the opinion that he may
live long time.
