FORECASTS FOR JUNE.
Storm Predictions For The Month of
Roses.

The weather, as forecasted by
Rev. Irl Hicks, for the month of
Jupe promises to bring much rain.
The first storm period is central on
the 3rd 4th and 9Th. On and touch
ing the 3rd change to much warmer
with rain and thunder storms. The
second period of storm disturbances
covers the 8th to 18th. Look for
many heavy thunder storms on the
9th, 10th and 18th. Many electrical
storms and heavy rainfall will no
doubt appear at this time, but they
will cover comparatively narrow
localities, leaving wide areas of the
country with only moderate results.
Tornadoes are entirely probable at
this and other June periods.
From the 18th to 18th the third
storm period is central. Electrical
storms and heavy downpours of
rain and heavy winds will visit
many places at this time. The
fourth period is central on the list.
Mr.. Hicks puts this period down as
crisis of electrical summer storms.
Violent, tornado storms are quite
probable in the central and western
states followed by a storm disturb
ance from the goth to 2Sth. Sections
which have been visited by rain
and thunder storms during the two
or three periods preceding this may
look for similar results at this time.
There will be thunder and rain
storms on and touching the Goth,
9th and 2Sth, but wide districts of
dryness will lie IN many parts Of
country, notably in northern, south
ern extremes.
In his general advice and caution
Rev. Hicks says: DO not take
shelter under trees in a thunder
storm. The danger from lightning
is much greater and many lives are
thus destroyed every year during
this month"

THERE is DEATH IN THE CIGAR
ETTE.

1t a boy should 60 into saloon
and come out reeling drunk, the
community would be shocked and
scandalized, the father would I'M
mediately invoke the law on the
saloonkeeper and there would be no
end of trouble for all concerned.
But let this same boy strut about
our streets and public places with a
Shrinking cigarette in his face and it
scarcely evokes a comment. Yet
there is more hope for the boy who
gets drunk on occasion than for the
sallow completed weakllng who is
slowly bur surely falling under the
fatal lnfn &c OF the deadly cigar

1t is hard to conceive the depth
OF this villainy except as it is
measured by the greed for gold.
