The private roads that rim through
this estate are macadam In construc-
ton and are 40 feet wide. There are
231s miles of them. They lead through
forests, which in their original form
we're wildernesses. but by the Midas
touch of wealth are transformed into
parks. The Passaic river flows
through or by them, and its tributary
waters are held in check to make
lakes and ponds, which are stocked
Nth fish, and on whose surface fleet
ef small pleasure boats float. On the
side of the old COW barn Is reared a
clock tower 100 feet high, on whose
summit is recorded time, facing the
cardinal points of the compass and
accented by bell that chimes the
hours so that they are heard as far as
Morristown, Summit and Demands

Fifty men are employed constantly
on the estate, sometimes 100 and even
more. The old farm blossoms under
the touch of wealth. and the farmer
boy coming home from the life insur-

old cornfield, which Is now a garden
to a splendid big house where liveried

Genesis of the Hailstons.

If it were not for the countless tril-
lions of dust particles that float, sep
arately, invisible, in the atmosphere
there could be no raindrops, snow crys-
tails or hailstones. From perfectly
dustless atmosphere the moisture would
descend in ceaseless rain without
drops. The dust particles serve as
nuclei about which the vapor gathers.
The snow crystal is the most beauti-
full creation of the serial moisture,
and the hailstone is the most extraor-
binary. The heart of every hailstone
is tiny speck of dust. Such a
speck, with little moisture condensed
about it, is the germ from which may
be formed hailstone capable of fell
ing a man or smashing window. But
first it must be caught up by current
of air and carried to the level of the
lofty cirrus clouds, five or six or even
ten miles high. Then, continually
growing by fresh accessions of mois-
ture, it begins its long plunge to the
earth, spinning through the clouds and
flashing in the sun like a diamond bolt
shot from rainbow

sin He Wouldn't Reform.

This curious tale of old time spirit
ism is taken by Defoe from Baxter's
Q615-1691 Historical Discourse on
Apparitions:" There is now In Lon
don an understanding. sober, pious
man, oft one of my hearers, who has
an elder brother, a gentleman of con-
siderable rank, who, having formerly
seemed pious, of late years does often
fall into the sin of drunkenness. He
often lodges long together here in his
mothers house, and whatsoever he is
drunk and has slept himself sober
something knocks at his bed head, as if
one raped on the wainscot. When
they remove his bed it follows him.
Besides other loud noises on, other
parts where he is, that all the house
hears, they have often watched him
and tied his hands lest he should do
1t himself" But his mother declared
that she had seen his shoes under the
bed taken up and nothing visible to
touch them" The drunken sinner re-
fused in spite of these solemn warn
ings to abandon his evil ways
