CYCLONE AND TORNADO
Wide Difference Between AtmoS-
pheric Commissions.
Former Usually Harmless, While the
Latter Is Always Destructive
Birthplace of the Hurricane
Is the Ocean.

There is a confused notion in the
popular mind as to the difference be-
tween a cyclone and a tornado. AS a
matter Of fact, the ordinary land
cyclone Is usually quite harmless, and
only a mistaken use of the term has
led to it's association with those ter
rifying storms properly called lorna
does.
1t is, perhaps, hard to account for
the bad reputation of the cyclone, In
asmuch as, instead of being dangerous
and destructive, it is really the chief
source of rain in the spring and au-
tumn, and doubtless responsible for
much of the snow that adds to the
picturesqueness of our winters. Cy-
clones cover a large extent of terri
tory, and on an average they follow
one another across the country from
west to east at intervals Of three
days
On the other hand, tornado often
does great damage. 1t may be recog-
nized by it's funnel-shaped cloud that
bounds and bounces along, now high
In the air, now touching the ground.
At places where it skins along the
ground the havoc is greatest, and the
stoutest structures erected by man are
crushed in an instant before the awful
winds let loose from every direction.
A curious feature of the tornado Is
that the air seems possessed of an
explosive force that causes buildings
to fall outward instead of inward. In
such storm no place offers absolute
safety, but it is said that the south
west corner of a cellar affords the
best protection obtainable.
The surface winds rush spirally up
ward into the funnel-shaped cloud,
carrying with them many articles that
afterward are dropped some distance
away. The danger zone Is confined
to a path less than half a mile in
width and 100 miles in length. These
storms occur only On land.
The ocean is the birthplace of the
true hurricane. On the tropic seas it
marshals it's forces of wind and wave
before which the stoutest vessel is
hCIplSSS. lSIduuS arc lcl1u WdoIC w
it; and even the sturdy mainland
trembles under it's catigation.
Hurricanes last much longer than
tornadoes, cover more territory, and
cause more damage. The West In
dies are frequently scourged by these
fearful visitations, and our own At
lantic coast sometimes feels the eff
fects.
But the hurricane and the tornado
are rare. The former seldom extends
far inland and usually occurs in the
late summer or autumn. Tornadoes
are products of the south and west,
and are for the most part confined to
the spring and early summer months.
The cyclone is a storm that travels
over land and sea in and out of sea-
son.

Lost MeaninQS.

Those who care for the beginnings
of things may be glad that the quill
pen survives to remind us that the
original pen was plucked from bird, "
observes a writer. Germans and
Frenchmen are in no danger of for
getting that, thanks to their respec-
tive words, 'feder' and plume; but
the English pen suggests a feather
only when one chooses to think about
it and recall the Latin 'penna.'
Almost all our writing materials
are no longer what etymologically
they profess to be. Paper is not long
er made of papyrus; a pencil is not a
little tail 'pencilllus,' like a camePs
hair brush; the lead of a lead pen
Gil is not lead; and the india rubber
with which we erase it's marks does
not, and never did, come from India.
'Evea of parchment there is proba-
bly, not a fragment in the country,
except, perhaps, in a museum, and
coming from Pergamum in Asia"

SCHEME DIDN'T WORK
Johnny's Ingenuity All of No
Avail.
After Preparing Himself for a Severe
Punishment, and Undergoing Some
Suffering in Consequence, the
End Was Not Attained.

Johnny was in disgrace He had
been summarily tried, convicted and
was now waiting apprehensively the
execution of the sentence. Contrary
to the laws and statues of this free
country, Johnny was the victim Of
star chamber proceedings, his teacher
being prosecuting attorney, Judge,
jury, and would, eventually, when she
got around to it, execute the sentence.
The trial had occurred just after
school had convened for the day, but
for some unknown reason the teacher
preferred not to CO. with the pun.

possibly leave whole day for the de.
PENDANT to consid2r ways and means.
Much might be done in that time, and
Johnny's wits worked overtime in con-
sidering how he might evade punish.
ment.
During the course of the morning a
happy thought occurred to him. The
scheme seemed so feasible that he
chuckled to himself as he thought how
.
He was jubilant at the idea of escap-
ing merited punishment, but more SO
because the teacher, while administer
ing justice, would never know that he
was failing to get the full benefits of
it. Indeed, it was a little dampening
to his spirits that the teacher must
not ever know with what delightful
ease she had been taken in.
At noon Johnny proceeded to carry
his plans into effect. He secured an
armload of waste paper and stuffed
it neatly into his trousers and stock
iLgs, feeling carefully round with his
fingers to be sure that no opening
had been left into which the thin edge
of a birch switch could penetrate.
All the afternoon Johnny moved
round n sackcloth and ashes. No
monk of old suffered more in his hair
shirt than did Johnny in his paper pad
ding. The day was hot and the pers-
piration trickled down his legs; he
never knew that paper wads had SO
many sharp corners. While his school
mates played ball, he sat off in the
distance, sullen and unapprOachable.
The afternoon wore on and the tor
ture became almost unbearable. Only
the thoughts of the singing effects OF
a sound switching sustained him.
More than once he was tempted to dis
gorge, but he stuck to his colors.
When the rest of the pupils were
dismissed at o'clock, he felt his hour
approaching, and when the teacher
called him to the front he went for
ward blithely. He gave a divided at
tention to the usual lecture which pre-
cedes thrashings-hi torment of mind
and body was too acute for him to take
much cognizance of outside influences.
Finally the lecture came to an end,
and the teacher stepped to her desk.

TWO SMALL BOYS IN GARDEN
John and Frank Brown of Clyde, Kan,
Make Money in Raising and Sell
ing Vegetables.

Here is the garden story OF two lit
tie boys at Clyde, Kan, their picture
and a wagon load of their prize win
ming produce, grown on a plot of
ground 100 by 40 feet.
John and Frank Brown are eight
and ten years old Their father is a
travelling salesman. Mr.. and Mrs.
. Brown and the boys became interest
ed summer before last in garden sto-
ries. The boys attended the meet
ings of the farmers institute arranged
by the Kansas State Agricultural col
lege through it's agricultural extension
department, and they listened to every
suggestion.
Mrs. Brown encouraged the boys In
every way when they announced one
day their intention of cultivating the
lot upon which their house stood and
the one adjoining it. She hired man
to pillow and harrow the ground and
she bought two dollars forth of seed.
At this point the boys showed much
concern. They knew that land needed
enriching, some one had said so, and
It would cost too much. The boys haul
ed manure for days, after school hours,
until the whole 100 feet had fairly
satisfactory covering.
Then In the spring they planted the
seed and through the long vacation, in
o the hottest weather they toiled like
men, wedding and cultivating and ped
ding their surplus vegetables from the
tin wagon.
When the farmers institute of Clyde
met, John and Frank loaded the wagon
with choice samples from their garden
and went to the meeting. The farm
ers were surprised. No provision had
been arranged for such an exhibit, but
the officers of the institution gave the
boys a silver dollar and their appro-
sbation. and told them how proud they

cording to the Arundelian marbles,
iron was first known to the Greeks,
B. C. 1892, nearly two centuries and

The slmnIe Life Amid the Ice.

one to waken first, and would either
start the alcohol lamp myself or call

which had waived and futtered over
the kitchen throughout our hours OF
rest, from its place, stepped forward
and the next march was commenced.
After from four to six hours of march
ing we would halt for half an hour
to eat our simple lunch of pemmican

after four to six hours Of travelling

Ankle Support.

along the heel of the shoe. AT point
above the heel, or where the foot re-
quires someplay, the support has a
double hinge, thus permitting free
movements of the ankle, while at the
same time preventing it from bend
ing far enough to cause a sprain.
Many people who are very fond Of
skating are unable to enjoy the sport
because of weak ankles, which per-
sist in turning. 1t is this turning, too,
which makes it so hard for some peo-
pie to learn to skate, there being diff
ficulty enough in keeping a perpen-
dicular position without having to
watch the feet. This ankle support
will be found useful for beginners for
this reason, as it will give them more
confidence. A strong strap at the top
of the support buckles around the top
of the wearer's shoe.

HAVE CLUB FOR EACH WIFE
No Papuan Gentleman Would Think
of Beating Two Wives With the
Same Weapon.

The marriage customs of the Papu-
ans are somewhat similar to those OF
many other savage races. The cere-
mony is largely matter of purchase.
The men marry when they are ABOUT
Is years of age and the girls at IL OF
even earlier.
When a young lake man desires 10
get married he visits the father OF his
prospective bride and puts forward his
personal belongings as an inducement
to the father to consent to the union
If a man has a gun he is a great
parsonage and can demand anything
but besides their bows and arrows and
spears most of the Papuans have very
little. Even agricultural produce is
scarce, the only cultivation undertak-
en- being on a very primitive scale.
A little clearing is made by both
men and women, and the women then
grow bananas and sweet potatoes. The
men are always armed, and when
the women go to the patch to attend
to their crops or gather the produce
the men go with them as protection.
The women, however, do the work.
Many families have bundle Of an.
cient Portuguese cloth centuries old
and when a young man is seeking a
bride one of these heirlooms is gen.
orally part of the deal. The youth
and the girls father haggle over the
marriage until eventually they agree
to terms and then the thing is done.
The men are not limited to one wife
and once a girl is married she is sub
ject to her husband in everything and
is practically his slave.
In another part of New Guinea,
says a writer in the Wide World, Il
remember a distinctly strong cOntir-
nation of the custom which places a
woman at the entire mercy of her hus-
band. At one house l visited l saw
standing outside the doorway three
huge stone clubs, each large enough
to fell bullock
"On making inquiries l found that
they tailed with the Number of wives
owning allegiance to the householder;
the clubs were used by the man to
beat his wives with it they annoyed
him. The quaint part of it was that
while the women seemed to raise no
objection to being flogged unmerciful-
ly by their lord and master, they would
not be beaten with the same weapon
as that used on another woman, so the
natives kept a separate club for each
wife"
