The Highest Clouds.

During the past year committee
appointed by the Carnegie 1nstitu-
ton at Washington has been engaged
in measuring the height of clouds
with the aid of photography, ST.
multaneous pictures of cloud are
made by two cameras placed 500
feet apart and connected by tele-
graph wries. From the amount of
displacement of the cloud, caused by
veiwing it alternately from each end
of the 600-feet base line, its height
can be calculated. Some of the
"mackeral-sky" clouds photographed
were seven and quarter miles high.
The Hottest clouds whose elevation
was thus measured belonged to the
type known as cirrus, or "curl cloud
the height being little more than
II miles.

Errors About the White House,

To the Editor:
noticed somewhere recently-I
would not say positively that it was
in your columns-an article on the
White House which contained several
mis-statements.
In the first place 1t was stated the
White House was first occupied in
1909, and that its first occupant was
President Madison. The fact is, it's
first occupant was President Adams,
who. took up his residence there in
1900.
The original mansion was begun
in 1892. In 1914 it was burned by
the British and rebuilt in 1878.
Another of the errors in the arti-
Gle referred to was the statement that
ready-prepared paint is used on the
White House TO make it beautifully
white.
noticed this especially because |
have used considerable paint myself,
and wondered that canned" paint
should be used on such an important
building, when allpainters know that
pure white lead and linseed oil make
the best paint.
, 1t so happened also that l knew
white lead and linseed oil not
ready-mixed paint-were used on the
White House, because had just read
booklet published by a firm of
ready-mixed paint manufacturers.
who also manufacture pure white
lead. In that book the manufacture
ers admitted that for the White
House nothing but "the best and
purest of paint could be used" and
said that their pure white lead had
been selected
Above all people those who at
tempt to write on historical subjects
should give us facts, even if it is
only a date or statement about
wood, or brick, or paint, or other
building material. Yours for truth.

The Chief Duty.

There are times when it is a duty
to make money; but the man does
not live whose chief duty it is to
make money, nor whose chief atten-
ton can safely be given to money
making. If one gives money-making
first place, both his work AMI his
Judgment are undermined and I'M
reliable. If he let's the opportunity
to make money be the usual deter
mining factor in his decisions, he is
building character on about as stable
foundation as that man who heard
Christ's words and did them not. In
at least nine cases out of ten there is
better reason for or against any
given course of action than a money
making reason. Those who will not
believe this soon come to be recog-
nized by their fellows as branded by
the dollar mark. And such mark
Is the sign of slavery which robs
life of all its real richness.

DILL, OR DITCH PICKLES.

Take a big stone jar that will hold
at least four gallons, or a key with
out head. Select cucumbers from
six to eight inches In length, wash
and wipe carefully SO as not to bruise.
Add two pounds coarse salt to three
gallons of water, boil and skim, re-
placing the water that evaporates SO
as to keep the same quantity. Put
a layer of cucumbers in the bottom
of the jar, with one small African red
pepper, bunch of dill seed in stalk
and a layer of green grape leaves TO
cover. Proceed in this way, until
the vessel is filled, then cover with
a layer of cabbage leaves. On the
very top put good big fiat stone.
Pour in the hot salt and water ana
let the vessel stand while quiet Ter
mentation takes place. In two or
three weeks the cuclmbers are done
and should be transparent like AMBER,
with a sub acid flavor.

Origin OF Poodle.

Why is a poodle so called? Some
one says: "Probably the natural

what to call it, Poodle seems so
obvious name for this dog. And
in fact, this is not far from the
truth about the origin of the word.
1t is quite recent in English, not be-
ing found before 1864, apparently.

from the low German, 'pudelin,' to

Domestic Hint.

You can always tell whether a
man is married or single when you
see him go through a screen door.
If he is married he approaches the
door cautiously, glancing nervously
around, then takes off his hat, and
swipes it up and down the door
two or three times. He then quickly
opens the door about two inches,
squeezes himself through, and closes
it with quick snap. The length of
time he has been married may be
determined by the degree of fear
and nervousness indicated in his
countenancn. Athens Post.

Ancient Sinai,

Sinai was known as the "turquois

Flinders Petrie believes that 1t was
the first mining center in the world.
In his recent book on the subject,
Dr. Petrie tells, of the various ex-
petitions sent to Sinai by the Egyp-
tian government. At the head of
the party was the commander or

Pharaoh. The official staff consisted
of masters of the house of metals"
or assayers, scribes and secretaries,
to make Inventories of the output of
the mines.
