The Real Effect.

In regard to this a recent report of
the Canadian Government on iceberg
phenomena says; There is little
room to doubt that the real iceberg
effect is the rise of temperature, and
that the fall observed when a ship
passes abeam of the berg) is due to
the colder current in which the berg
is being carried"
In some experimental trips when
iCebeTgs were passed at a distance of
from a half to a quarter of a mile
there was observed first a rise of
temperature in the water. followed
by a fall as the berg was passed
abeam.
Similar experiments with the mi
ro-thermOmeter have shown that the
near neighborhOod Of land is be-
trayed by a fall of water tempera-
ture. and this is believed to be due to
the action of the tides and the OBJ
struCtiOn offered by the coast line

For once. Burke showed a certain
delicacy. When he had finished the
reading, he said nothing for a long
minute-only sat with his cunning
eyes on the face of the woman who
was immobile there before him. And,
as he looked on her in her slender ele-
gance of form and gentlewOmaniy
loneliness of face. a loveliness intelli-
gent and refined beyond that of most
women, he felt borne in on his con-
seriousness the fact that here was one
to be respected. He fought against
the impression Ii was TO him pre-
posterous, for she was out Of that
underworld against which he was
ruthlessly at war. Yet, he could not
altogether overcome mis- instinct to-
ward achievement admiration.
And as the letter proved,
she had been innocent at the outset.
She had been the victim Of a mis-
taken justice, made outcast by the
law she had never wronged.

since he had some sensibilities, though
they were COarsened, and they sensed
vaguely the maelstrOm of emotions
