The Water Wagon.

There is certain slop freight"
train on the Louisville division of the
Illinois Central which is known as
the water wagon because it fur
nishes ice water to dozens of thirsty
farmers. Ice water is carried in both
the caboose and engine cab, and far
mers come to the train as soon as a
station is reached TO quench their
thirst. It has become habit, and
some will wait sometimes an hour If
the train be late to get taste of real
ice water.

able to carry his own weight on
his back. Transported TO Mars,
he could carry three times as
much, something like two hun.
dred and twenty-five kllos. In
taking observations of Mars
through the telescope, one can
see a distinct red disk, marked
with more or less brilliant spots.
Some of the spots which are
greenish are the oceans, other
very red ones are the continents,
greater In extent than the
oceans. which is the opposite to
the way the earth is disposed
The most brilliant spots are
the recovered regions of the
poles, and the clouds are ImOst
equally bright. The atmosphere
OF Mars is more transparent
than ours, and its sky is incom-
parably clear.
The waters of Mars are more
divided and distributed in in.

W hich are sometimes incurvlng,
but oftenest almost ,rectilinear,
and which mark the brilliant
surface of the planet with dark
lines, just as the line of lead di-
vides the panes of glass in our
church windows. All these dark
lines form a pattern which is
relatively symmetrical, and
which does not seem to have
been made by chance. A plan
so regular must have been de-
signed, and for a long time the
observers of Mars have been
disposed to consider these lines
as c'nals dog by the iuhabi
tanls of the planet for the needs
of their civilization.

Mars makes her orbit around
the sun in a little more than
696 days, therefore the seasons
are almost twice as long as they
are with us. The atmosphere
of Mars Is rich in watery vapors.
Oceans can be seen, and at the
poles thick ice, which melts
when summer comes. The va
riations in temperature are ex-

as much solar heat as our globe
does. The sun appears half as

their light from the two moons,
