A WRESTLING WELL.

A resident of West Seattle has in his back yard whistling well which predicts changes of weather instead of gushing water. With the inten- ton of boring for water this man drove drill 153 feet below the sur- face.
 The well was abandoned at this depth because no water was in sight. Later the owner noticed that the pipe which capped the bore was spouting wind making a peculiar whistling sound. At other times the pipe seems to suck in wind.
 By observation it has been found that the expulsion of air precedes a storm of some sort, and the influx of air change for the better.-Popu- lar Mechanics.

DEATH DREAM REALIZED.

A remarkable dream of death w@
 mentioned the other day at South ward, England, inquest on an infant named George Mccarthy. "I had so vivid dream that my daughters child was dead" said Mrs. Hendry, the grandmother of the infant, "that l went early in the morning to her house. found her in bed, and asked her what was wrong with the child. She replied, He is all right. What did you think was the matter with him?' l told her of my dream, and asked her to look at the baby. She looked, and the child was dead"

WHEN scHuMANN WAS SORE.

An amusing story of Schumann IS told by a Vienna critic. The com poser once accompanied his wife, who was even then a celebrated pian- ist, to the palace, when she went to play before the king of Holland, and was gratifed by the monarch's com pliments of her performance. The composer was somewhat surprised, however, when the king turned to him and courteously inquired: "Are you also musical? ?" They say Schu- mann was so indignant that he didn't speak for an hour.

FORMATION OF HAIL.

Father Sanna-Solaro has laid be- fore the Academy of Sciences at Paris a new theory respecting this meteor, the formation of which he has initiated. At present, meteor ologists consider that hail is formed in the atmosphere by successive in- crustations upon nucleus. He be- heves that hailstones are produced at once nearly in the state in which they fall; that congelation begins with the exterior; that the liquid in contact with the crust cools, and the bubble of air is converged towards the center. This latter finally bursts the shell, and the congelation of new layer takes place. This latter is formed in two parts-one deprived of air and transparent, the other containing bubbles of air and opaque. If the hailstones reach the ground before perfect congelation, their cen- ters will contain bubbles of air, wa ter and icicles; but if the congelation be suddenly completed, the nucleus will resemble snow. The father has frozen different quantities of water in caoutchouc envelopes quite trans parent, and states that he has ob- tained artificially all the above-men- toned phenomena, and that between the natural and artificial hailstones the only difference is, that the'num Der of layers, for equal volumes, is greater in the latter. The details giv- en in the memoir, which is printed in the "Compes Rendus," will inter- est meteorologists, whatever opinion they may form respecting the fa- ther's conclusions.

ROOM CAREFULLY SEALED.

An eerie tradition is recalled by the death few days ago of Squire Thomas Green of the Old Hall, Poul- ton-Lancelyn, Cheshire, England whose family have been in possession of the estate since period prior to the Norman conquest. There is in .Poulton Old Hall a mysterious locked room which has never been opened except by representative of the Green family. The hall and its lands have sometimes been let, but the Green family have always re- tained possession of this mysterious room, which is supposed to contain several relics and other family treas ures. The last tenant would have given an increased rent for 1t if he could have had access to this room or could have cleared away the mys- terious contents. but the owners re- fused to give up possession, and so the tenant left.

TAKE THESE LITTLE HINTS
They Will Do Away With Several of the Little Annoyances of Every
 day Life.

Are you annoyed by the perspira- tion or wind dislodging your nose glasses? Nose glasses can be held firmly to the nose by the use of pow dered rosin. This is flesh-colored and the heat will make the glasses stick so that neither ordinary wind nor perspiration will dislodge them.
 Are you housekeeper or a me- chanic and suffer from cracking finger nails made brittle through your work? Finger nails can be kept from splitting and breaking by applying a little olive oil to them once or twice a day.
 Do you find scaling fish an un- pleasant task? Then dip it in hot water a few minutes before doing so and see how easy it becomes.
 Does the days work leave you in a condition that will not permit you enjoying life? Then draw water into the bathtub, get into it and let the water from the hot water faucet STun on towel, lay this lengthwise down your spine, gradually applying colder water until it is direct from the cold water faucet. You'll feel like a different person. If some rel ative will kindly take handful of dry salt and gently rub your back while 1t is wet from the hot water you will be receiving the treatment recommended by the worlds most famous nerve specialist.

STICK TO IT

John Wanamaker, the big Philadelphia merchant says: Advertising is not an en- terprise for a 'quitter.' If there is one enterprise on earth a quitter should let alone, 1t is advertising. To make a success of advertis- ing one must be prepared to stick like a barnacle to a boats bottom.
 "'He should know before he begins that he must spend money lots of 1t. Somebody must tell him that he cannot hope to obtain re- suits commensurate with his expenditures early in tn e game.
 Advertising does not jerk. It pulls. It begins very gent ly at first, but the pull is steady. It increases day by day and year by year until 1t exerts an irresistible power.

A more intimate connection with
the association, more active part
in committee work and closer per-
sonal touch with the Y. NJ. C. A. or
ganiZation was pledged by the direc-
torate of the association last evening
at the first meeting to he held after
the money-raising campaign.
The board of directors evidently re-
allied that now the financial burden
had in measure been lifted from
their shoulders, the activities of the
association itself had a stronger de-
nand upon their energies. The en-
ployed officers have been making a
fruitless effort for some time to build
up an organization of committees
about them that win strengthen and
build up the work i'm the boys. phys
icGl and religious departments. The
members We're rather backward in re
spending, however. and much of the
good work planned and started by the
secretaries has come TO naught. Last
evening the directors declared that
they would devote more time and en-
srgy to the committee duties and it
is hoped that the Y. NJ. c. A. will in
TINS manner come nearer to ,what its
projectors hoped 1t to be-
Another forward step taken by the
board was to reduce the membership
rates for boys during n 30-day peri
I'd. Five dollars will now secure a
boy membership. which with dollar
more for locker gives him all the
privileges of the department In the
past the membership fee has been too
high to reach the young boys who
are really more in need of the as
sistance of the association than the
lads who could afford to pay the
higher rate. Secretary Galloway is
getting his plans under way for the
membership campaign for his depart
ment and proposes to put the associa-
tion in the way of reaching hun
dred or more boys of the city who
have 50 far hardly entered the build
