ROARING WELLS EXPLAINED.
Scientists Claim Air Rushes in and Out
of Ground Making Noise.

RAI;AHOO, Wis, April 2o.-ISpc-
cial. Scientists who have visited the
roaring wells in Sank county, as wen
as those near Bcloit, have reached the
conclusion that the noise is caused by
the rush Of air in and out of the ground.
It is believed that i'll past geological
period an underground stream which car
rlcd away vast quantities of substrata
water, leaving thick layer of coarse
sand and pebbles about sixty feet under
ground. The crcyiccs in this pcbhly
strata is filled with air. Many of the
wells can be seen to bubble, and it has
been often proven that there is rush
of air in the wells.

Writing interesting letters doesn't come naturally to me, and there are good many people with whom 1 must keep in touch through letters, if at all. So have got into the way of keeping notebook and jotung down in it brief notes to remind me of little bits of news that will specially interest my different correspondents. I even jot down a little joke sometimes, says Home Chat. Then, when spare time comes to write my letters my notes are ready to hand, and the interest ing scraps of news don't go flying away directly l put my pen to paper, as they used to do.

A Road to Happiness.

It is not at all difficult to believe that it is easier to give it if it is the English girl, inasmuch as the for mer always knows exactly what she wants. But fact which must not be lost sight of Is that the American girl is admittedly entitled to demand what she wants, while she gets it because the American husband takes the view that it is easier to give it if it is wiser to refuse, The English girl, as a rule, loses her capacity for knowing exactly what she wants for the simple reason that she is aware tha. greater happiness lies in dismissing vain de- sires from her mind.-Lady's Pic torial
