The diameter of the sun is reckoned
at $4,000 miles. This diameter, ow-
ing to it's loss Of heat and the conse-
quent condensation. is steadily being
shortened. though at very slow rate,
of course. The whole solar system
the sun and all Of it's planets-is NOV
ing through space at pace estimat-
ed at about 100000 of miles annu-
ally. Those who are supposed to
know about the matter assure us that,
owing to certain causes. too numerous
and complicated to be dealt with in
this place. the planet on which we live
receives only the 2,25O-millionth part
of the heat that is thrown off by the
sun. Even as it is the earth receives
annually from the sun an amount of
heat that exceeds by a million times

sian waters be will not be permitted
to disembark until he has produced the
necessary document. properly vised by
Russian consular or diplomatic Off
Ger. Indeed, the mere possession of an
American passport is not sufficient,
for the regulations of the Russians
prescribe that the credential must be
vised before the frontier is crossed
Better to lose ones purse than ones
passport in Russia. Funds may be
cabled for and received in the course
of few hours. but it is a question of
weeks where a passport is concerned.
Russian officials are usually courteous
to American visitors who do not dis
play too much curiosity about certain
unspeakable Russian institutions, but
let them find a traveller in the interior
without passport and the luckless
one will speedily see the inside of a

HUMOROUS QUIPS
She GiggIed.

l went out to walk with Miss Nellie one
day,
And as we two strolled through the
park
I noticed she seemed quite contented and
gay
More happy by far than a lark.
And whenever I made a remark even
plain,
And then when | asked her to kindly eX-
plain
She giggled-then giggled some more.
Then in the evening we went to the play.
And though twas a tragedy deep
She did not the slightest emotion display,
But giggled while others would weep.
She giggled a bit when the hero was
killed,
And as the bride came through the door
To marry the villain whose conduct he'd
thrilled
She giggled-then giggled some more.
So l asked the young lady to tell me just
why
Her system contained so much mirth
And how she could giggle when others
would cry
And when happiness seemed at a dearth.
So she said her new hat had the latest
shaped franc,
The only one like it in store,
And that no other lady could get the
same.
Then she giggled-and gigg!ed some
more.

The late Proctor Knott seems to be

the facetious Duluth speech, says the
New York World. Yet he was q great
lawyer, and as chairman OF the house
committee ON the judiciary he had tc

affairs. MIR. Knots single appearance
as a humorist fixed his reputation for
all time, and no amount OF profoundly
serious work could change II.
Samuel 8. Cox had d similar expert

enough to perceive that he was to be
identified not with learning or public

turity that the ~speakership. the goal Of
his career, was denied him because 4
