Great Tide Waves.

Those who see the rise and fall of
the tides in our Atlantic harbors sell
dom think of the wonderful career Of
the moon raised ocean waves which
cause the tidal flux and refuX. Such
pillows not only cross the sea, but flow
from ocean to ocean, and in this way
complicated movements are set going.
Thus once in every twelve hours the
moon raises a tide billow in the south
ern Indian ocean. When this billow
passes the Cape Of Good Hope atsnoon
its successor is already born, and by
the time the first billow has reached
the Azores islands at midnight the Sec
ond is rounding the cape and a third
has come into existence int southern
ocean. By o'clock in the morning fol-
lowing it's passage of the cape the tide
billow reaches the English channel, and
there the shallow water delays it so
much that it does not arrive at the
strait of Dover until 10 a. m. Here the
narrowing channel causes the tide to
rise very high and almost puts an end
to the wave. In the meantime another
branch Of the billow runs around the
western side of the British islands,
rounds the north point Of Scotland and
moves slowly down the eastern coast
Of England until it finally flows up the
Thames and laps the wharfs Of Lon
don.-J.ondon Graphic.

How Fatigue La Caused.

The fatigue felt after muscular ex-
ertion is chiefly due to the formation
within the muscles themselves of GER
tain heterogeneous poisons which are
the result of chemical action going on
and which have paralyzing action on
the muscular fibers. These poisons are
formed by the breaking up of certain
reserve materials which exist in the
muscles without actually forming an
essential portion of them. When these
reserve materials are thus split up they
give out energy which may be avail
able as a source Of heat or as cause
Of motion. They accumulate in the It's
sues Of persons who lead sedentary
lives, and when such people take much
exercise they are very liable to an at
tack of govt or feverish prostration,
owing to the sudden accumulation
within the blood Of too many waste
products for the kidneys to remove at
once. The immunity from fatigue pos
sessed by those who are continually
exercising is due to the fact that these
reserved materials have been gradually
removed during the course Of training
and little remains capable Of producing
equity poisons when much exercise is
taken.

LIVING ON STlLTS.

A Strange Sight In the French Tur-
pentine Growing Country.
People live on sixteen foot stills in
the remarkable turpentine growing
country Of France. They don these
stills after breakfast and do not re-
move them again till it is time fof bed.
There are two reasons for the wear
ing of stills in the turpentine country.
One is the turpentine gathering. The
other is the herding of the great flocks.
The turpentine comes from the mari
time pine. This tree is tapped, shin
gle is inserted, and from the single is
hung tiny bucket into which the tur-
pentine drips. The tapping process is
like that used on the American sugar
maple.
Young pine trees are tapped low, but
with each years passage the incision is
made higher, so that it is not long be-
fore most of the trees are tapped TWEEN
ty or thirty feet from the ground.
Hence the huge stills of the work
men. On these stills they traverse the
with each stride, and quickly and easi-
~ they collect the turpentine that over
flows the little buckets hanging high
up In the trees.
1t is for herding also that the stills
are useful. The country is very fiat,
and the herdsman unless he continual
~ climbed tree would be unable to
keep all the members Of his huge flock
in sight. But striding about on his
stills he commands wide prospect.
He is always, as 1t were, upon hill
The silt wearers carry a fifteen foot
staff with a round, fiat top. like din
ner plate. When it Is lunchtime or
when they are tired they plant upright
under them the staff and sit down on
it's round, fiat top. Then in comfort,
seated so dizzily high, they eat and
rest and chatter-a strange sight to be-
hold.-New York Press.

"And then the prince" he said slow

MAY put it to the test2'' he begged.
"Oh, Faintheartv she whispered
mockingly. "Try and see."
Whereat Dudley began a most pecul-
lar course of behavior. Going quickly
around the corner Of the cabin. he
bumped his head softly several times
against the logs, gave himself a vio-
lent shake and then strobe through the
trees to the low rock in the little clear
ed space at the edge of the bluff. Sit
ting down, he plunged an empty hand
into the deep pocket and brought it out
full Of stout brown walking boot of
small dimensions.
To his credit be it said that there
was self denunciation in his aspect as
he sat turning it miserably over and
over. Oh, yes; of course he'd had it
there all the while. Well, hadn't he
tried to let her have 1t at the very
first, and didn't she keep interrupting
till he couldn't-that is to say, didn't
want to? Suppose, he was the biggest
cad on record, he'd wager no fellow
ever had a better excuse! Hang it!
What did she have to look at him that
way for? How could he deliberately
hand the thing over and put an end to
the happiest few moments he'd ever
spent, or ever expected to spend, for
that matter? For surely by this fool
ishness he'd dished any prospects of
further acquaintance about as effec-
lively as possible. Well, anyhow, this
was torture: might as we'll have the
shoot himself.
In three minutes he was back. The
trial trip had taken twenty to navi-
gate. She was waiting and still alone
Oh, yes; rub it in! She might have
cared if he hadn't spoiled it all.
Most eager knightv' she called in
greeting. ''Was it wings? Nothing
else could have taken you down the
ravine and up again in this time"
For answer he knelt without a word
and put the fateful shoe in place with
elaborate care. He would have that
privilege before he forfeited her favor
forever. Then
Il found it in the ravine before 1
climbed up at ALL" he said abruptly.
"It was in my pocket all the while.
Now send me away, for can't go I'M

But Cinderella leaned forward to take
his remorseful face between two but
terfly hands.

RRIMFTELD.

Brimfield suffered another disas-
trous fire and one which destroyed an
other Landmark in the burning, Sat-
urday, the LIST, of the house and barn
belonging to Austin Andrews and the
small adjacent building occupied by
Harry A. Hubbard as grocery store.
Only heroic and persistent efforts on
the part of citizens prevented gen.
eral eonflagration of houses on the
south side of the common. The cause
of the fire, which was discovered a
little after 4 O'Clock, and the place
of it's origin are unknown. Flames
were first seen issuing from the double
barn belonging to the premises of
Austin Andrews and Mrs. John W.
Morgan. They spread with the
greatest rapidity, and the house of
Mr.. Andrews, which joins the barn,
was soon on fire. The ringing of the
town bell awakened the village. For
a time it looked as if Mrs. Morgan g
dwelling and that of A. W. Pierson
containing the post office must go. 1t
was decided to abandon the idea of
saving the one-story store building
between the burning house and Mrs.
Morgan's and concentrate all efforts
on the latter, as the heat would make
it impossible for men to remain on the
roof of the store. While some were
engaged in carrying out things from
the burning house, others set to work
to level, if possible, the store. Axes
were vigorously used, and after the oil
tank was pulled out dynamite was
applied, but the charge was not
sufficient, and soon the little building
was all on fire. The splendid fight
that was made to save Mrs. Morgan
house, which was aided by the general
stiffness of the atmosphere and the
setting of the current caused by the
heat in a southerly direction, met
with success, which for a time was
hardly to be expected. The Andrews
place was formerly the home of the
late James T. Brown, and in the early
part of the last century was owned by
his father, James Brown, and was the
early home of Mrs. Emily Brown
Wilkinson of Springfield. The house
was century or more old, but was
in an excellent state of preservation.
1t had been repaired and added to at
two or more different times, and was
one of the most attractive places in
town on account of its situation, as
we'll as general appearance. The
store building was formerly the paint
shop of the late John ". Morgan, we'll
known in Springfield and vicinity as
q fresco painter. 1t was owned by
Mrs. Morgan and rented by Mr.. Lum-
bard.

desertion. Mrs. Gilbert was awarded
the custody of the child. The case
against Edward Broder was nolled.
