The previous paper indicated certain
invisible but important work OF the
lichens in making soil out OF the Soho
rock. A similar process of soil making
IS due to the action of concealed, silent,
mysterious gases carried by the atmo-
sphere
Though the earth's crust beneath the
soil and outer layers is a rock appar-
emily so indestructible as to challenge
the mightiest forces. yet it is the thin
and insubstantial air that is its chief
destroyer. On a still winter night
Shelley tells us that The balmiest sigh
which vernaI zephyrs breathe in even
ing's ear were discord to the speaking
ouietude that wraps this mOveless
scene" But this calm and pleasant
air. laden with forces more stern and
unrelenting than the lions claw or the
tigers tooth, is slowly crushing the
hardest rock into impalpable powder.
The Biting Wind.
The unscientihc reader may ask how
the air can grind the rock; has 1t any
millstones? or rollers? or teeth and
Jaws? Indeed it has. Its millstones
never lose their grinding power, It's
Jaws their strength, it's teeth their keen
ness. 1t may be true that in CONTRAST
with the acidity and bitterness which
the human soul may manifest thaJ Jht
bdlmy air of our Indian summer ano
even the blasts of our cool winter, may
seem - mild as to justify Snakes

QUICK WIT IN WAR.
How Mosby Turned Situation to His

Own Advantage.
Much of the success Of Colonel Mos
| by and his partisan rangers in the
| Shenandoah valley was due to their
dash and bravery. but an almost equal
amount to the quick wit Of their
leader, who. says the author Of Mos
by's Men," was never at loss to turn
a situation TO his own advantage.
One night, while scouting with four
or five Of his men on the Winchester
pike, he saw a squad Of cavalry ap-
preaching from the direction Of town.
1t was the Federal patrol on its rounds,
and Mosby and his men were between
them and their camp. When they got
within hail they stopped and inquired
Of the Confederates who they were.
Friends, with the countersign," re-
piled Colonel Mosby, with his best imi-
tation Yankee twang
Zone Of you advance, then, and give
the countersign," was the response.
NO" said the colonel sharply, you
are coming from the direction OF the
enemy. One of you advance"
As this was an entirely correct propo-
sition, one of them rode forward.
When he came up the colonel said to
him in low but terribly distinct voice
as he leveled his revolver at him:
"Give the alarm and you are dead
man! ! am Mosby. Call to the others
that 1t Is all right and to come on"
The prisoner did so, and five more Of
Uncle Sans gallant defenders marched
confidently up to the muzzles Of as
many revolvers and quietly surren-
| dered.

Department Stores. vi
The fixed charges of a department
store must cover the loss Of breakags
and general destruction, the failure
OF goods to sell and theft. The cheap.
er stores suffer more seriously from
thieving than the higher priced ones
because their employees are less trust
worthy. For years the proprietors es-
timated that their theft losses were
due half to their dishonest employees
and half to outsiders, but not one of
them would venture TO estimate the
total. There Is a curious standard OF
ethics among some OF the employees.
They do not regard taking articles for
their own use as theft, whereas to
take them for some one else, even
member of the family, is plain robbery.
Almost never are these guilty ones
prosecuted, even If they are detected
and the proof is conclusive. They are
discharged, of course, and notices are
posted In the dressing room explaining
the reason. But when an employees
steals goods to sell and is caught ar
rest follows.
Professional shoplifters have been
largely eliminated owing to systematic
prosecution. BY far the greatest num-
Der of thefts committed by outsiders
are traced to women, usually reputable.
