ROLLING THUNDER.
Why the Rumble at Times 10 So Long
Drawn Out.

Why the Rumble at Times 10 So Long
Drawn Out.
The prolonged roll Of thunder is
readily explained by comparison with
a volley fred along line of troops.
Suppose troops to be drawn up on
line In such numbers as to extend for
a mile and ordered by a signal that
all could see to fire at once. One
standing at the end of the line would
hear the report of the musket nearest
him instantly. He would hear the
others successfully. Thus report $50
feet away would come to him in half
a second, and he would not hear the
last report for Eve or six seconds after
the gun had been fred. This would
produce a sort Of roll, which would
gradually increase In intensity.
If the listener stood exactly midway
between the two ends Of the line the
reports from both ends would reach
him at once, and the sound would be
but half as long in reaching him as If
he stood at one extremity. If the sol
diers formed a circle there would be
one sharp explosion.
Flashes of lightning may be consid
cred as representing three lines Of
troops along which the explosions oc
cur at the same time. Consider the
variety OF distance and position Of the
listener and we account for the va
riety Of sound in thunder. In noun
famous regions the rolling In augment
ed by reverberations or echoes.

The foregoing quotation is from

constitutes a vital part of this story.
Julia is ten years old, and she goes to
Sunday school. 1t appears that on
recent occasion the Sunday school
teacher had considerable to say about
this matter Of "entertaining angels I'M

preston with Julia.
A few days after the lesson Julia's
mother left her in charge of the house
for a few hours. When the mother re-
turned she went to a particular cup in
the cupboard to extract therefrom
half dollar In this cup is kept the
family pin money. and Julia's mother
knew that she had put so cents there
before she had gone out. But the
half dollar was gone. There was an
expression of anxiety on Julia's face,
and mother scented mischief.
Did you take that money! asked
the mother, somewhat severely.
Julia broke into tears. Il gave it to
a man that came to the back door,"
sobbed the little girl.

mother. What for?''
