chimney, using the air ill the box {, crevices through which the air can en- ter, then tine air comes down the other chimney to fill the box, because no space can remain empty of air This draft going down the one chimney car ries the smoke from tue to6 sh paper with it, and you can readily see why il rises in the other.
 Of course you know that the candle could not burn without air, but you can prove it by holding your hand over the chimney down which the current has been going into the box. The candle will soon begin to burn feebly and vii: finally smoke and go out. No air cali come down it's own chimney because the upward draft in it is too strong.
 Another way to make both of these experiments is to Use an ordinary lamp chimney and q piece of till cut in the shape of a T, as shown ill the picture. Hang the piece of tin inside the chim- ney and place the candle a little to one side of it. Now, when you light the candle, the draft will go up that side and down the other, so, if you hold tic touch paper to the empty side, the smoke will descend and ascend on the candle side, and in the same way, by holding your hand over the empty side of the chimney, you can put the candle out.-New fork Mail.

THE SNOW FLOWER.
Wonderful I'Iant That Is Found In
 Northern Siberia.

X traveller in Siberia tells us about wonderful plant found ill the northern part of that country, where the ground is perpetually covered With a coating oi frost and snow It shoots out of the frozen soil on the first day of the veal and attains a height of three feet On the third day it blooms, remaining open for only tWentyfour hours. Then the stem, the leaves and the flowers are converted into snow-in other words. the plant goes back into its original elements.
 The leaves are three ill number, and the flower is star shaped. On the third day, the day the bloom appears, little glistening speclls appear on the eX- tremities of tho leaves. They are about tAe size of the head of q pin and are the seeds of the flower.
 It is said that some of these seeds were gathered once and taken to St. Petersburg, where they were buried in a bed of snow. The first of the follow ing year the plant burst forth and bloomed, just as it does in Siberia.
 That reads like fairy tale, doesn't it?--EXehange.

 The apron pictured is a most satis- factory style, made as it is wi h a little sash that gathers the fitness ill at the back and lets it out again for easy doing up.

 Since those little dresses, suitable for either small boy or girl, have been invented, they have revolution ized the styles of children.

 As to the other little dress, ,ts style lies in the pretty arrangement Of lace or embroidery which makes the usual yoke.

 Some exqu site wide f1ounccings, made of series of rows of scallops and dots-blindwork done on sheer stuff-are among the less expensive pieces. They make an effective tri"o ming fer a pretty gown at very little cost.

UNTONIzED CHORUS TO FIGHT.
Did Time Metropolitan singers SIN Looking
for support.

Secretary Marchand OF Chorus Singers
Union No. II. composed or the old chorus OF
the Metropolitan Opera House, said yester-
day that the Italian and French members
of the old chorus who ven to Europe last
year are coming here on the steamship
Moltke from Genoa and will make a final
effort to get the unions Of musicians and
stage hands to refuse to work at the Metro
politan Opera HOUSE unless the old chorus
u reinstated. The Moltke is due here to-
morrow.
Another object OF these chorus singers
In coming to America is TO get their share
Of the 81, 900 realised at the benefit given
by Nine. Sembrioh in aid Of the musicians
who were sufferers through the San Fran
cisco disaster.
Mea ntime the rehearsals OF the new
chorus will begin soon, and the preparations
fbr the season are going on without any
reference 70 the old chorus. The American
Federation OF Musicians passed a resolution
some time ago to the effect that its members
could not strike in support Of the old chorus
because the greater part Of its members
we're not citizens and were out Of the ooun-
try. The officers OF the Chorus Singers
Unto n now Say that when its members
arrive here the latter objection will no
longer exist.
President Weber Of the American Fed
Grafton Of Musicians is expected in this city
from st. Louis tomorrow. and the repre-
sentatives OF the Chorus Singers Union
will try to take up the question with him
again. A committee viii also make the
demand for reinstatement Of Director Con-
ried, and on his refusal will AJAX that the
musicians and stage hands refuse to work
until the old chorus 10 reemployed.
