How They Forecast the
Weather.
Washington, D. C., April 70. 1914.

By telegraph. The weather
forecaster does not look out of
the window and guess. He was
not weatherwise like the old
salt who scents the approach of
a storm without knowing how.
To the signs by which the
ordinary citizen decides whether
to take his umbrella with him
or leave it at home, he pays no
attention.. Give him his tele-
graph wires and he can make
his predictions as accurately in
a windowless cellar AS on the
cop Of New York's highest sky
scraper.
The private individual sees
the clouds settle on a nearby
mountain or the rain sweep
overa field mile from his house
md knows that the storm will
De on him i'll u few minutes.
With the aid of the telegraph
the weather man sees the same
storm when it is a thousand
miles away, and not only this
storm but every other one in the
country. He knows in what
direction and at what p g 9 d
each is moving, and can thus
calculate with reasonable ac-
curacy the approximate time
when in will reach any place in
its route,
Twice a day, at s In the morn
ing and 8 in the evening, reports
are telegrapled to Washington
from about 200 observers station
ed in as many different localities
in the United States and Can
ada. In these reports the OBJ
servers do not yolenteer their
personal opinions about what is
going to happen. They confine
Il emselves to a plain statement
of The actual conditions at that
Particular moment, the pressure,
or weight, of the atmosphere,
the temperature, the direction
and velocity of the wind, the
amount of lain since the last
report. and so forth. From this
information the Weather Map
of the United States is made up,
showing the conditions that
prevail in every part of the
country. Since there are two
maps for each day it is obvious
chat by comparing them the
forecaster can keep track of the
c purse and progress of both
storms and periods of clear
weather. From that, the next
step is to predict what sort of
weather will prevail for a day
or two in any given locality.
This map is the basis for all
scientific weather forecasting.
A glance att will show that it

are called, travel in a general

set OF dishes-also from that beautiful
Ten Cent store. She looked over the
gifts. Some were already wrapped,
for all the while she sang her nimble
fingers had been busy. But her gen.
ius solved the problem.
We'll" she said rehectively. "she
can use them for an ornament on her
desk maybe, and I'll promise to dust
them for her. like little dishes"
But having cleared that hurdle an
other presented itself almost imme-
diately. On flooding onset of mem
DRY Calista remembered that she had
fully intended when she started out to
get something for Jasper-the brother
that was to have been. but now wasn't
to be. as she explained 1t to her mind.
For in Calista's loyal little heart
burned a steady flame of liking for
the man who could treat little girls
with the consideration he had be-
slowed upon her.
This was dilemma And for the mo-
ment Calista actually thought of rob-
bling her real brother Jim of the glo-
rious green tie. Jim, just two years
older, was a pig to her sometimes.
But then she remembered that Jasper
never wore any but black ones on ac-
count of his red hair, as he had ex-
planned to her at one time.
1t was indeed a perplexing problem
to say the least. For had 1t been any

some one-her mother. or even Mar
garet-and negotiate a loan.

she concluded almost sadly And Gu.
riously a dusk Of dreams crept into
her blue eyes. "Unless-unless | give
him something Of my own But q
mental review Of her most cherished
possessions failed to reveal anything
suitable for big grown-up man.
Then even as she gave up the prob
lem her despairing musing awoke to
life with a delighted. Obi" AS she
pondered she had been gazing directly
at the framed picture of Margaret
which stood on her little dresser.
Calista was nothing II not master
full In the manner in which she
reached ultimate decisions-and then
lived up to them. Less than a minute
after she had allotted Jasper that
forget-me-not framed face she was
also promising him note. For
Calista really had a fellow feeling OF
understanding for the man-especially
about that picture.

Margaret added nothing to prolong
this conversation. and apparently
Calista was too intent upon going her
own way in thought to continue 1t
perforce, for silence fell between
them.
And IL was into this silence that
the telephone tore vehemently.
Let me, Let me-" shouted Calista.
And before Margaret could utter a
word of protest she had the receiver.
Then assuming an important air OF
grown-upness she attended to the af.

Meanwhile a white face waited at
Calista's side. From II great tear
washed eyes stared incredulously.

the insistent tide of human emotion
surging about her, as she held the
receiver toward Margaret. HE says
to tell you he was in the wrong and
he's ready to go down on his knees
to ask you to forgive him. And he
says to emphasize the down on your
knees"
Margaret put out a hand. II was q
wild yearning gesture with which she
bent to hear that voice. And Calista,
going into the next room, noted the
sudden light that few to her face.
Incredibly transformed she was from
the dream-haunted girl of few mo-
ments ago. And without really un-

made a hot-tempered man ashamed

had tipped the scales of chance.

saying her ache grows worser with

The gift and the letter we're done up
and duly delivered the next morning.
Amid the stress Of holding prepare

necessity of being secretive. She
walked up to the Hemingway's door. a
little girl bursting with the seasons
Joy. and said to Jasper's mother:
"It's--it's my Christmas present to
Jasper! No reason-is there?-why l
shouldn't give my dear Jasper one?"
And with shy little laugh she scam
pered Of.
And then the wheels OF Fate spun
round and round, having been given u
very vigorous start by Calista.
Christmas morning dawned clear
and white-bound. The drifting cloud
banks had left the heavens during the
night and settled with feathery light
ness on the earth, had made Calista's
world a beautiful amphitheater, snow

rang gladsomely. II was an ideal

Not seraph frames or harps have they,
indeed;
Often they totter on the weary way
To soothe heart that silently doth

Within dismal garnet, void OF day.
