Thomas B. Reed served In the navy
during the civil war, and In 1885 he
returned to Portland to practice law.
One Of the strongest men at the Port
land bar at the time was A. A. Strout.
Before beginning the trial of suit 1t
was Strout's habit to inquire of every
Juror as to the state of his health and
impress each with the idea that the
lawyer was solicitous of that jurors
personal welfare. Reed and Strout
were constantly antagonizing each
other, though they were very good
friends. In nearly every case Of In
portance Strout and Reed were on OPP
posite sides. 1t was annoying indeed
for the suave Strout to hear Reed
drawl out before the opening of
case:
"Well. your honor, Brother Strout
having finished his morning task of
shaking hands with the jury, we may
now, l hope, proceed with the busl-
ness of the court"

The real wrist, as one might say, is
the elbow joint. 1t is all hand, prac-
tically speaking, from that point to the
tips Of the fingers. When you turn
your wrist it is the whole forearm
that makes the twist, and every move
ment of the fingers is controlled by the
muscles of the forearm. The power
to turn the wrist to and fro at the ell
bow joint is possessed only by human
beings and monkeys, and even the
higher apes are not able to do the trick
nearly as we'll as we can. In. this
movement the great biceps muscle
in the upper arm is Importantly con-
cerned, its powerful action in turning
the forearm outward being accounta-
BILE for the fact that we are able to
put so much more strength into twist
In that direction than the opposite
way. Many of our most familiar tools
indeed, such as the screwdriver, are
made with reference to the anatomical
popularity in question. 1t is for this
reason and no other that all screws
turn to the right.

In Leaves From the Notebooks OF
Lady Dorothy Nevill," edited by Lady
Dorothy's son, Ralph Nevill, there is
an amusing story of an old peer whose
considerable family pride was agree
ably tempered with humor.
One day he was surprised to be told
by his sister that she had conceived
great affection for a well known al
though eccentric man of science who,
although generally esteemed, was of
very humble Semitic origin.
Not quite determined as to what
course of action he should take, he
sent for the prospective bridegroom
with the intention of talking matters
over. After some conversation he said:
"And now, sir, should like to know
something about your family"
''I think" replied the other, 'tthat it
will be sufficient to say that l am Of
the descent of the illustrious blood of
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob"
"Oh," said the peer. 'of course our
family has nothing to compare with
that. If my sister really likes you,
you had better take her."

Perhaps better title would have
been How a Girl Doesn't Throw,
because it is well known that g1rl
cannot propel ball or anything else
like a boy. Most people-and all boys
conclude that this defect arises IRON
clumsiness, but that Is mistake.
The difference between girls throw
ing and a boys is substantially this:
The boy crooks his elbow ano
reaches back, with the upper part OF
his arm about at right angle OF forty
FIVE degrees. The direct act Of throw
ing is accomplished by bringing the
arm back with a sort of snap. working
every Joint from shoulder to wrist.
The girl throws with her whole arm
rigid, the boy with his whole arm re
Taxed. Why this marked and unmis
taxable difference exists may be ex
planned by the fact that the clavicl'
or collar bone in the feminine anatom!
is some inches longer and set some de
greSs lower down than in the mascu
line frame. The long, crooked, awk
ward bone interferes with the full ant
free use of the arm This Is the rea
son why a girl cannot throw stone.

Circular Storms.

Meteerologists are now agreed thai
what are called circular storms are not
circular in the proper sense OF the
word. There is not merely flow OF
air round, but also conveyance to
ward a central area. There is also a
large uphow over and near the central
area and also an outflow above and q
descent probably in the outskirts Of the
storm area; hence the motion is sue
cessively complicated. 1t is also very
variable, as squalls and gusts Of the

with strong but less destructive winds
