nature it is the most fleeting and
uncertain. \ mystic play of this force
occurred recently. the effects of which
were felt all over the world. Dur

of the world were held in the grasp
OF the mysterious and unseen force
Of magnetism. Ships at sea We're
driven from their courses because of
the bewildering way in which the
needles whirled about. Communica-

times cut off entirely. In fact, for
twenty-four hours telegraphic COM

caused by magnetic agitation within

This demonstration Of the unseen
power is only another manifestation of
the great rulers of the universe. The

give a picnic dinner, after which

Then follows tug-ofwar. Those who
succeed in dragging their opponents
through the pond onto the opposite
side are declared the winners. This
method is not only funny but original.
