War. has in his workroOm. This is Il
scientific instrument which measures
the amount of moisture in the air and

work. BY the record of the instrume mt
there was 81 degrees of moisture in the
air on Tuesday morning. while on
Wednesday morning. at the time the
heaviest shower was in progress, there
was but 16 degrees. or flNe degrees less

In this connection Mr.. Toilette says
that he has known the hygromcter to

could explain how there could be more
moisture in the air when no moisture
was falling than when a rainfall was IN
