Drainage Of the Zuyder Zee.

A great project Is again before the
people of Holland-the draining OF the
Zuyder Zee. The sea, which, as every
one knows. Is at the north Of Holland
and covers an area of $4,000 hectares,
hectare being practically two acres
and q half.
Just half a century ago scheme to
drain the southern portion of the sea
was first mooted and although it re-
ceived considerable support, the oppo-
sition was greater. but now an asso
citation has been formed and bill will
be introduced into the chamber. The
promoters see that with an increased
population means must be taken to
enlarge the country and this reclama.
ton of the sea is suggested as capable
of accomplishment. II the sea is con-
quered there are several lakes which
can be dealt with later.

His persistent wooing thrills the girl, but
she hesitates, and Armstrong goes east
on business without u definite answer.
Enid hears the story of mining engi-
reer, Newbold, whose wife fell off a cliff
and was so seriously hurt that he was
compelled to shoot her to prevent her be-
Ing eaten by wolves while he went for
help. Kirkby. the old guide who tells the
story. gives Enid a package Of letters
which he says were found on the dead
womans body. She reads the letters and
at kirkby's request keeps them. While
bathing in mountain stream Enid is at

body of water was fed by the melting
snow from the crest and peaks, which
In the clear, pure sunshine and rari-
fled air of the mountains seemed to
rise and confront her within a stones
throw of the place where she stood.
On one side of the pretty lake in
the valley, or pocket, beneath, there
was little grassy clearing, and there
the dweller in the wilderness had
built a rude corral for the burros. On
a rough bench by the side Of the door
she saw the primitive conveniences to
which he had alluded. The water
was delightfully."- soft and as it had
stood exposed to the suns direct rays
for some time, although the air was
exceedingly crisp and cold, it was
tempered sufficiently to be merely
cool and agreeable. She luxuriated
in it for few moments, and while
she had her face buried in the towel
rough, coarse, but clean, she heard
step. She looked up in time to see
the man lay down upon the bench
small mirror and a clean comb. He
said nothing as he did So and she had
no opportunity to thank him before
he was gone. The thoughtfulness of
the act affected her strangely, and she
was very glad of chance to unbraid
her hair, comb it out and plat it
again. She had not q hair pin left, of
course, and all she could do with it
was to replait it and let it hang upon
her shoulders. Her couture would have
looked very strange to civilization. but
out there in the mountains, it was en-
inently appropriate.
Without noticing details, the man
felt the general effect as she limped

Her breakfast was ready for her. 1t
was coarse fare, bacon, baked po-
tato hard tack crsped before the fire,
coffee, black and strong, with sugar,
but no cream. The dishes matched
the fare, too, yet she noticed that the
fork was of silver, and by her plate
there was a napkin, rough dried, but |
of fine linen. The man had just set
the table when she appeared
Il am sorry | have no cream" he
said, and then, before she could make
comment or reply, he turned and
walked out of the room, his purpose
evidently being not TO embarrass her
by his presence while she ate.

CHAPTER XII.
A Tour of inspection.


The first thing necessary, she de-
cided, when she had satisfied her hun
ger and finished her meal, was to get
word of her plight and her resting
place to her uncle and the men of the
party and the next thing was to get
away, where she would never see this
man again, and perhaps be able to for
get what had transpired-yet there
was strange pang of pain in her
heart at that thought!
No man on earth had ever so slim
ulated her curiosity as this one. Who
was he? Why was he there? Who
was the woman whose picture he had
so quickly taken from her gaze? Why
had so splendid man buried himself
alone in that wilderness? These re-

had been leaning, at the same time ex-
tending her hand to greet him.

nervously as he drew near, Il am so
slad you are back, another hour of
loneliness and l believe l should have
gone crazy"
Now whether that Joy in his return
was for him personally or for him alb
stractly, he could not tell; whether
she was glad that he had come back
simply because he was human being
who would relieve her loneliness or
whether she rejoiced to see him indi-
vidually. was a matter not yet to be
determined. He hoped the latter, he
believed the former. At any rate, he
caught and held her outstretched
hand in the warm clasp Of both his
own. Burning words of greeting
rushed to his lips torrentially; what
he said, however, was quite common
place, as is often the case. Word
thought and outward speech did not
correspond.
IT'S too cold for you out here, you
must go into the house at once" he
declared masterfully, and she obeyed
with unwonted meekness.

had grown suddenly chill. Still hold.

cabin few rods away. Her wounded
foot was of little support to her and
the excitement had unnerved her, in
spite of his hand she swayed; without
n thought he caught her about the
waist and half lifted, half led her to
the door. 1t seemed as natural as it
was inevitable for him to assist her in
this way. and in her weakness and be-
wilderment she suffered it without
comment or resistance. Indeed, there
was such. strength and power in his
arm. she was so secure there. that she
liked it. AS for him, his pulses were
bounding at the contact; but for that
matter even to look at her quickened
his heart beat.

T'ELEGRAPH lines have revealed pc
L cuiar condition of affairs underground
nothing more nor less than independent cur
rents of electricity in the earth. Sometimes
these are of such magnitude as to put tele
graph lines temporarily out of business by
causing current counter to the desired one,
due to the counter electromotive force of
that particular part of the earth. A queer
thing noticed in this connection is that lines
running north and south are hardly ever dis
turbed: only those going east and west seem
to be affected to any great extent. The
earth current as a general thing runs from
east to west, thus following the sun and
helping along currents in that direction and
retarding them in the opposite direction.
1t has been ascertained that one general
cause produces these currents, and that
cause is no doubt the sun itself. The earth
has been known as magnet for long time,
and the possibility of its being an electro
magnet, or one caused by electric currents,
was preached some years ago. There is no
doubt as to the nature of its magnetism in
the light of the discovery of these currents,
as currents flowing round body from east
towest tend to maker an electromagnetic, with
the two poles situated as are the earth poles.
The electrOmOtlve force corresponding to
the currents is usually only about three
hundredths of a volt to the mile, which is
so small that ordinarily no variation is OBJ
served. In 1881, however, there was gen.
eral disturbance on the face of the sun, and
this in some unaccountable manner raised
this force on the earth to half volt mile,
or sixteen times it's ordinary value. The
highest it has ever been observed was six
volts mile. This was during a big mag
netic storm when the sun was full of spots.
This effect is not noticed in cables under
A. Il ,-f,.1
Quoting power of sea water, which offers
practically no resistance to an electric current,
while the earth material does. The greatest
effects are noticed to take place at ten O clock
A. NJ and four P. NJ; the smallest at sunrise.
There is no doubt that the position of the
moon relative to the earth has an important
bearing on these earth currents also, as
shown by Adams some years ago.
Now, besides this terrestrial electricity,
there exists what is known as atmospheric
electricity 1t is well known fact that the
rapid evaporation of water produces cleo
tricity; also the friction of air and water par
ticles blown about in the atmosphere pro-
duces it. Another effect is what is known
as induced electricity, on account of the
earth's charge. As air in its general state is
a nonconductor, the electricity has to re-
main in these sundry parts of the atmos-
phere until it either gets strong enough to
discharge itself to the earth or to another
part of the atmosphere, or else be blown
away with the wind.
OF course we are all familiar with how
Franklin proved that electricity existed in
the atmosphere by showing lightning to be
electricity; but most of US are prone to
think that this effect is confined to the
higher regions. Some experiments con-
Guided not long ago disclose quite a charge

Cows milk at best is too heavy a

Even when you change it with great
care, it still holds curds' which only a

Babies stomachs can't stand the
rich fats of COWS milk, which vary
in richness with almost every quart
of milk you buy. You can't be sure
of always having your baby's food
