What Hicks Promises for February.

Here is what Hicks, the St. Louis
weather prognOsticatOr promises us
in the way of February weather:
The last regular storm period in
January extends to LIST and End of
February. On these dates storms
will have passed into the eastern Sec
tons with cold and clearing weather
in western parts. A seismic period
is central on Feb. End, covering
three to four days before and after
quake reports, not only at this, but
at every seismic period throughout
the year.
A reactionary storm period is CEN
trail on the 4th. 5th and 9Th. This
period is at the center of Mars equi-
noctial, which falls on the 9Th. The
moon is on the celestial equator the
same day. Low barometer, thunder,
wind and rain will visit many sec
tons, especially in southern states,
On and about tie SStti, , all to be fol-
lowed by snow, rising barometer and
change to much colder, the cold
wave to penetrate far into the south
. and dominate the weather up to
about the 9th and 10th.
b, A reactiOnary storm period pre-
walls from the 9th to the 14th. About
the 9th the barometer will begin fall
ing in western parts, change to
warmer and cloudiness will ensue,
followed by rain, turning on western
TANKS to snow. During the 18th,
18th, 18th, into the 14th, these
storms will move steadily eastward
across the country, preceded on the
east flank by warmth and rains, and
followed on the west by snow, cold
and clearing. This is the law of
storm and weather movement and
change-a law that all should I'M
derstand and remember. The per-
iods of cold and fair weather lie be-
tween the periods of low barometer
and storms, and are progressive from
west to east, the same as storm
areas.
A reactionary storm period, with
new moon at it's center, falls at the
18th, 18th and 18th. The earth's
vernal equinox will also be present
during this period, intensifying
storms and other phenomena. Low
barometer, much warmer, with very
active storms in many sections, will
be natural at this time. A seismic
period is central on the 18th, extend
ing from the 14th to the Goth.
i, A regular storm period covers the
goth to the 25th, being partly COW
cred by the incoming Mercury per-
iod. Disturbances of the preceding
reactionary period will scarcely sub
side, until falling barometer, change
to warmer and electrical storms will
appear on the Goth. Rain and thun-
der, with violent winds south, will
mark the first stages of this period;
but as the storms progress during
the 21st, 22nd, 23rd and Gath, rain
will turn to sleet and snow, amount
ing to billiards., followed from the
north by high gales and a sweeping
cold wave.
+; A reactionary storm period is CEN
trail during the last three days of
February. The Mercury, Earth and
Mars periods combine their disturb
ing forces at this time, calling for
prolonged and very decided storms
of rain, wind, sleet and snow.

so low in the neck, as many do,
and cut so short at the bottom,
as many wear them, they need
not wonder that hell is stirred up
in the breast of every man who
sees them.
The preacher is human. The
devil is in him just the same as
it is in every other man. There
are so many women who do not
seen. to know the limits of frank
respect for those who have help
ed them in some way. There
are some women, who, because
they are either losing hopes for
future bliss or because they have
been disappointed in their ma
jority, seem to want tn make
some pastor their confidant, for
getting that he is always a man.
Too many men are getting in
to the ministry who are weak
morally. No man has any bust
ness there unless he finds that
he is able to successfully fight
the sin that is in his own nature.
By no means shall we excuse
the preacher who goes wrong.
When a man assumes to stand
before the community in the po-
sition of a pastor and then dis
graces that office, he is worthy
of death. Rev. C. M. Dinsnore,
