THE BEAUTY OF DUST.

Dust Is usually thought of as a nuisance
TO be got rid Of as best il may, but
science teaches that in It's right place
and in properly small quantities IL adds
much to the comfort and pleasures or
life. The right place is the atmosphere
and nature provides about the right
quantity from meteorites. volcanoes, the
pollen OF plants, etc, without the aid Of
any chimncys belching smoke or auto
mobiles sending up clouds OF dust from
the earth's surface. II is to the dust
that We owe the gentle rain from heaven
which is so like the quality Of mercy
Without dust we would still have rain
but It would come down in devastating
torrents, because without dust particles
for the water vapor TO coEdense in IL
would not condense until the air was sn-
per-saturated. In the absence OF dust,
moreover, the vapor In the super-sat-
urated air would condense on our clothes.
the walls OF our houses and on every
solid or liquid surface with which q
came In contact There would be no
clouds and no haze in the air. The sun
sinking beneath the horizon would leave
no afterglow, and day would change alb
ruptly to night; in a word. have no at
