Madagascar.
Thunderstorms never occur in the
arctic regions, and even the north Of
Scotland very seldom suffers from
such a visitation. The nearer you get
to the equator the more frequent and
severe are the electric manifestations.
In parts Of Central Africa the average
Of thunderous days rises to the aston
fishing total of $50 per annum.
Yet there are curious exceptions. In
Java and Sumatra, both intensely hot
climates, there are but ninety-two
storms yearly. and in Borneo only
Afty.
The Gold coast Of Africa has only
sixty a year. which is less than occur
In Florida. though the latter country
Is outside the tropics.
In Jamaica there is a thunderstorm
every day during the rainy season,
which lasts for five months These
storms almost always occur between
midday and in the afternoon.
Perhaps the most astonishing .act
with regard to thunderstorms Is that
the island Of Mauritius, which is only
$50 miles east of Madagascar, has. On
an average. only one thunderstorm in
eighty years. Yet in Madagascar the
lightning is more destructive than any
where else in the world. the annual
death roll being over 800.

MARK ANT0NY'S TRICK.

L Worked Like q Charm Till Cleo.
patra Learned the Secret.
According to Plutarch. Cleopatra
was votary of the piscatorial art. and
20 keen did the rivalry become be-
tween her and Antony that he resort
ed to the meanest articles to insure
victory. Mortified and irritated by
the queens superiority, he engaged
divers to take live fish and place them
on his hook. This was done 20 ex-
pertly that he pulled up fish after fish
in rapid succession. Learning in some
way the secret of his sudden success,
Cleopatra pretended to congratulate
him and to admire bis dexterity. and
at the same time she devised Gun.
ming means Of revenge.
Another match was arranged, and
the fishing began in the presence Of q
large company Of friends. Antony
soon had bite and pulled up a large
salted fish to his great disgust and
amid the loud laughter Of all present.
The secret was out; Antony's trick
was exposed. and once more woman's
Wit had proved too much for mans
ingenuity. A diver. specially instruct
cd by the queen, had got the start Of
Antony's and attached the salt fish to
his hook.-Mathews In angling"

promised to return in few days, he
allowed two or three weeks to pass
without making any mention Of his in

avoid his creditor. But one morning
the colonel unexpectedly encountered
him at the postoffice.

"All modern ships are fitted with

signals is general in the naval service.
In the case of small vessels having no
electric installation and also for use In
case Of the failure of the electric sig
nails the navy has system of colored
stars in connection with rockets for
the purpose Of signaling.
these are in no sense the ordinary
commercial fireworks. but are manu-
featured by the service for naval use
"There are no photographs of this
system of signals for distribution. The
apparatus consists of specially de-

that are used in the service code."-

ARE MICROBES IN YOUR SCALP7
Il Has Been Proved That Microbes
Cause Badness.

Il Has Been Proved That Microbes
Cause Badness.
Professor Unna Of Hamburg. Ger
many. and Dr. Sabourand. the leading
French dermatologist, discovered that
a microbe causes badness Their
theory has time and again been amply
verified through research experiments
carried on under the observation OF
eminent scientists. This microbe
lodges in the Sebum. which is the nat
ural hair oil. and when permitted to
flourish it destroys the hair follicles
and in time the pores entirely close.
and the scalp gradually takes on
shiny appearance. When this happens
there is no hope Of the growth of hair
being revived.
We have a remedy which will. we
honestly believe. remove dandruf. ex-
terminate the microbe. promote good
circulation In the scalp and around the
hair roots. tighten and revitalize the
hair roots, and overcome badness, so
long as there is any life left in the hair
roots.
We back up this statement with our
own personal guarantee that this rem
edy called Rexal "93'' Hair Tonic will
be supplied free Of all cost to the user

FELL AMONG Thieves.
And the Old Man Didn't Know Which
Set Was the Worst.

And the Old Man Didn't Know Which
Set Was the Worst.
An old man from rural England
with his wife was on holiday in
London and decided on an evening at
q theater. He looked up the adver-
t1sements In the papers and selected Il
house where "Ali Bahia and the Forty
Thieves was being played. 1t was a
'cheap" house, the price Of stalls be-
ing given as two-and-sixpence. The
farmer was surprised. however. on ar
irving at the box Office to be met with
a demand for q shillings for the two
tickets. The extra sixpence per seat,
it was explained. was for booking.
Then he was called upon to pay six
pence for a program, and the female
attendant who showed him to the
seats also asked for sixpence, in add.
ton to which there was "a shilling to
be paid for hats and coats being taken
care of in spite of his protest that
they could take care Of them them
selves. A footstool was brought for
his wife and was accepted without
suspicion that it would be charged for.
but the attendant who brought 1t &C.
manded another sixpence. and finally
opera glasses were handed to them
and payment of another sixpence re-
quested. Then the farmer went III
search of the manager and. finding
him, said in a tone OF deepest disgust:
"You may do what you like with these
tickets. There are so many thieves in
front of the house that we don't think

RAILWAY SIGNALS
Fireworks" That Serve as Train
Protectors.
CODE OF TORPEDO AND FUsEE

Messages These Audible and Visible
Danger Signs Convey to the ensi-
nser-The Use Of Pyroteehnies as
sianaIs In the Naval Service.
"Pop, pop" or perhaps single
"pop," sharp and distinct like that Of
q giant firecracker heard not only on
! the Fourth Of July. but on every day
in the year, Sundays included. What
did it mean? And on almost any
night as l look out Of my window l
see the edge of the wood or the fields
lighted up by red or yellow fireworks.
Why this strange illumination?
As all these queer happenings took
place on the railroad few rods from
my house made inquiries Of the rail-
way officials. and here are some inter-
esting facts about the use Of these
curious fireworks"
The general superintendent of the
New York. New Haven and Hartford
railroad explained as follows:
"Our rules provide for the use OF de-
tonators, commonly known as torpe-
does, as audible signals and Of 'fusees'
as visible signals.
"These torpedoes are attached to
the top Of the rail on the engineers
side of the track by two small fex.
ible metal straps. which are easily
bent around the ball Of the rail. as
shown in the picture. and hold the
torpedoes securely in place until ex'
ploded by the first train passing over
this track.
1.-THE explosion of one torpedo is
signal to stop; the explosion Of two.
not more than 200 feet apart is a sig
nal to reduce speed and look out for
4 stop signal.
1.-THE fusees are of similar construc-
ton to the we'll known Roman candle
used for fireworks celebrations. ex-
cept that they burn a steady fame
without explosions. A sharp iron spike
at the bottom end will Usually stick
in the ground or in the cross tie when
thrown from the rear Of train and
holds the fusee in an upright position.
where it is more plainly visible.
"A fusee must be lighted and left
by the hagman whenever a train b
running on the slime" Of another trafA
or behind its own time and under
circumstances which call for such pro-
lection.
"A fusee on or near the track. burn
ing red. must not be passed. WheD
burning yellow the train may proce-
with caution when the way is seen ana
known to be clear. Standard fuseA
burn red for three minutes and va
low for seven minutes and can be sees
for quite a distance.
you will gather from the abo.-
explanations that the red glare OF
flaming fusee on or near the track
warns the approaching engineer that
a preceding train has passed over his
track less than three minutes ahead
Of him. and under no circumstances
must he pass this signal while burning
red. When the fame turns to yellow
he may proceed with caution. only as
the way is seen and known to be
clear. keeping in mind that when the
fusee changed from red to yellow be
was exactly three minutes behind
