Gull of Mexico nenn

An elaborate report has been received
at the Navy Department from Lieut..
Solely, U. S. N, on the gulf stream.
Lieut. Solely has charge of the hydro
graphic Office at New Orleans and he
shows conclusively in his report that
the gulf stream has an existence in the
Cuff of Mexico, a fact which has hith-
erto been in dispute.
According to Lieut.. Solely the stream
flows in the Gulf of Yucutan channel.
where the water is deep, 1900 fathoms
in the center, and flows out through
the Straits of Florida, where the depth
is less. The center of the gulf is a
deep hole of large area, more than 1000
fathoms Deep and the water here is
very cold The main current of the
gulf Is a distinct part of the gulf

bean sea- which is warm, with a tenn

into the cooler waters of the gulf bv

some counter currents in the gulf A

When the children sit on the old stone wall
Cracking and eating the sweet new nuts,
And throwing the shells in the roadside rurA
The autumn days are the days for me-
They may be short but they're full Of glee;
And short days bring the evenings long
For reading and study. or mirth and song.
Delightful gifts have the autumn hours
The brilliant vines, and the snowy flowers,
The moonbeams witchng, the noontdes kind
The woodland treasures that ramblers find.

The season whose charms shall my praise employ

HOW 1T WORKED.

Wifey's scheme to Cure Her Hus-
band of Excessive Smoking.
She read about 1t in the back Of a
magazine. The advertisement said that
it was tasteless, that it could be ad,
minlstered in the breakfast coffee, and
that it would cure the most confirmed
smoker of the tobacco habit without
his knowledge.
To be sure, Elmer smoked only three
or four cigars day. Still, why should
he smoke at all? She didn't.
So she wrote for the cure, and in due
time it arrived, in plain, sealed pack
age, with full instructions inside.
Unfortunately it arrived before she
was up. Elmer opened it, smiled 10
himself, sealed it up again and said
nothing.
The next morning she gave him his
FIRST dose.
This coffee has bitter taste, hasn't
it?" he asked.
"Your stomach must be out of or

That night he brought home a large

The second morning he complained
again about the coffee's bitterness.

steering how you smoked last night"
"Pve had the most remarkable crav-
ing for tobacco lately" he muttered.
And at dusk he brought home a cost

Cavendish, and shutting himself up in
the library, smoked like forest fire
until bed time"
Hadn't we better change the coffee?
Surely you must have noticed its odd
taste" he said on the third morning.
