Worth Observing.

In a certain preparatory school In
Washington an instructor one day
made the statement that every year
a sheet of water IA feet thick is raised

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste Of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trouble
can be entirely overcome by using De-
fiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
ar strength than other makes.

PAUL HAD HIS own IDEA.
Fathers Explanation Of Lightning Not
Satisfactory to Him.

Little Paul was four years old when
the western city in which he lived was
swept one night by a terrible storm.
Wind, thunder and lightning played
havoc, and, while other members Of
the family were huddled in dark cor
ners, Paul watched the illumination Of
the sky with great delight. The next
morning at breakfast he asked his
father what caused the streaks Of fire
across the sky, and his father, with
great pains, essayed to explain. Paul
listened a%ttentively and apparently
accepted what was told him, but, when
he found attention diverted from him
self, he leaned over to his aunt, who
sat beside him. and whispered:
1T wasn't that auntie. 1t was God
scratching matches on the sky"

An unusually large number Of dead
birds have been found recently by
school children and others and there
has been considerable speculation as
to the cause Of the birds death. The
usual explanation of telephone wires
and similar causes, does not seem ade-
quate. It is noticed that in practical
ly every case the dead birds have the
appearance Of being in a weak and
emaciated condition and the theory is
advanced that they have failed to find

count of the abnormally cold weather
which has retarded the development
