SNOWFALL Showers.
TIE END.

More than one explorer in cold eli
mates has noted the curious phenOme-
non of q snowfall shower" The balls,
it is true, are not very big, the aver
age being about the size Of q hens
egg, but they are true snowbails for
all that--compressed globes Of snow,
not little Jumps of ice or hail. A fall
Of the kind occurred in north London
in March, 1859. and at the time it was
observed that the balls seemed five
times as dense and compressed as ordi-
nary snow and in no way to be told
from the usual handmade missiles.
They had fallen during the night and
were strewn many layers thick over
q very large area. No cause-eXcept a
doubtful electrical one-can be as
cribed for the strange phenomenon
and mountaineers are apt to discredit
the stories Of SNOWFALL showers told
them by the, old guides till suddenly in
the midst of an ordinary storm they
find themselves assailed as though by
myriads of mischievous schoolbOys.--

Kodol supplies the same digestive
juiC es that are found in a healthy
stomach. Being a liquid, it starts
dig estion at once.
Ilodol not only digests your food,
but helps you enjoy every mouthful
you eat.
You need sufficient amount of
good, wholesome food to maintain
Strength and health.
But, this food must be digested
thoroughly, otherwise the pains of
indigestion and dyspepsia are the
result.
When your stomach cannot do it's
work properly, take something to
help your stomach. Kodol is the
only thing that will give the stom-
ach complete rest.
WhyP Because Kodol does the
same work as a strong stomach, and
does it in a natural way.

that no prelate was ever more thoroughly
~astounded than the archbishop OF Paris
when he awoke some time ago to find him
self the possessor of a celebrated racing
stable.
81 beg pardon for intruding," Monseigneur
Amette's secretary came into the arch
bishops study with an air of much pertur-
baton one morning, but a lady, the Wis
countess De Raineville, has just died and
has left her fortune OF several millions to
your excellency."
What IL this, my friend? Surely there
is some mistake" the archbishop turned
abruptly in his chair. 81 never even heard
of the lady"
THAT may be-" the secretary admitted
deferentially, but the fact Is that your
excellency is the sole heir of this legacy,
which includes a w~ell-known racing stud"
"Ah, Of course you mean that this legacy
was left to the church to be distributed
among the poor under my direction?"
But when Monseigneur Annette under
stood that the legacy was left to him per-
sonally and not to the church., he refused
to accept 1t. But just after his secretary
had left the archbishopric to communicate
Monseigpeur Amette's decision to the exc
cutors OF the will. word came that the court
had ratified the request, so there was moth
ing to do but to accept the legacy. includ-
ing the embarrassing item OF the race
horses.
o 4 course, the archbishop Immediately
gave orders for the sale OF the stud, also OF
the viscountess' properties, comprising
much real estate. a breeding farm and a
historic chateau at Allonville, in Normandy.
Tn legacy converted into cash will be
used for various charitable organizations,
If the august and unwilling owner of race
track favorites fancied that he could wash
his hands Of proprietary duties so easily,
