Some months ago there appeared in
these columns some tables worked up
by Camille FIammarion to show
changes of meteorological character
which seem to have taken place in
Europe, says the Philadelphia Record.
Writing again, he states that from
actual figures obtained within the
past six years he has become certain
that the temperature of Europe has
been falling. France has been suf-
fering for a long time from an excess
of cold weather, the thermometrical
readings at Paris having been one
degree below the normal height.
Other readings show even less favor
able results. The fall is more notice.
able during the spring than during
other periods of the year. Similar
Phenomena are recorded in Great
Britain, Belgium, Spain, Italy, Austria
and Germany. In the days of Philip
Augusta, in the thirteenth century, thu
wines of Etampes and Beauvais were
the favorite beverages at court. Henry

In the middle of the sixteenth CEN
fury Macon was celebrated for it's
muscated wines, whereas the muscatel
grape at this moment can scarcely be
made to thrive there. Ancient chron-
icles mention the cultivation of the
