Curious Power Of chareosI.

It has been found that the power Of

that It can be employed for exhaust

that at the freezing point Of water and
at normal atmospheric pressure one

The features of Teheran that attract

at intervals In the wide circle of the
ramparts. In the center of the town is
the great square Of the arsenal. where
an enormous number Of now obsolete

The kind Of mirage known as fata
morgana is seen across straits or lakes
in southern Europe and shows in calm
weather such images in the air as those
Of towns, castles and palaces. On the
Lake of Geneva it is sometimes seen
on fine afternoons of spring or sum-
mer. F. & Forel. the well known
Swiss investigator, has been giving
some attention to the curious appari-
lions and concludes that they are due
to a peculiar distribution Of tempera-
ture in the air over the water. In the
morning, the air being cooler than the
lake. the opposite bank seems to be
depressed. exaggerating the earth's ro-
tundity, and late in the afternoon, the
air having become hotter than the wa
ter's surface, the opposite bank APP
parently rises above the true horizon
and the earth's circumference Is en-
larged. For a few moments only, at
the change from one condition to the
other. the fata morgana may be seen.

BRUNONIA
How q Town Took Its Name
From a Mystery
BY ELIZA B. TREAT

Names often fasten themselves upon
things or places from some incident
connected with them in their begin
ming.
There Is a town in what is now
the middle west. but half q century
ago was the far west, called Brunonia.
Slngularly enough, the town took its
name when 1t was In the rough from
came to the place a stranger, without
Introduction, and when asked his name
said:
Call me Brown; that's as good a
name as any"
This man Brown turned out to be
the embodiment Of a mystery which
set the inhabitants agog. When this
mystery reached it's climax the town
showed signs of permanence, and a
name was sought for. Some one sug-
gested that they call it Brown. The
proposition was laughed at till young
college graduate who had recently set
tied there suggested the Latin for
Brown, or Brunonia: This euphoniouS
word pleased the people, and the town
was thenceforth known by that name.
Brown was spare man, who wore
his hair quite long and dressed in
buckskin, his head covering being a
sombrero. One looking at him would
remark:
What strange looking man that
fellow isP
But he would not be able to de-
termine wherein the strangeness lay.
1t was not in his costume, for a num-
Der of men thereabout wore buckskin,
and long hair was ''plains" fashion
If 1t lay in any one thing it was in a
sphinx-like expression the man always
wore. on his face. The strangeness Of
appearance was enhanced by pecul-

TALK TO YOUR HORSE.
II viii Make the Animal More Intesil-
n0nt and More Friendly.

" VIII MAKE the Amman more tne0Hts
gent and More Friendly.
Talk to your horse and teach him to
obey your voice as well as the reins.
This may prove valuable II, as some
times happens, the lines break or be-
come unbuckled Besides, the horse
likes the sociability of it. He easily
learns a dozen or more words, but be
careful to use them only for exactly
what you mean. For instance, whoa"
means to stop at once and stand per-
fectly still, "get up to go straight
ahead and at once, back" to step back
ward, easy" or steady to slow up.
These words the horse readily learns
and takes kindly to. walk" means to
change at once to a walk, and "all
right" spoken In a calm, reassuring
tone, means don't be afraid-that
won't hurt you" and It Is wonderful to
see what calming effect 1t has. Speak
firmly, but not sharply, to the horses,
for they are nervous creatures. Talk
ing to your horse will make him more
intelligent and more friendly.-Spirit

1t appears that while Abel was ram

request by excuses for short time he
was commanded to attend At the
palace Abel was placed In chair Ia

king, with his attendants, appeared in
a gallery opposite him as he sat taun-
derstruck In his suspended chair. At

As the singer gazed in horror at
these ferocious creatures the king
calmly inquired whether he preferred
to sing or be let down among the
