WHAT BAROMETER SHOWS
Some Short Rules for the Intelligent
Reading of This Nest Useful Of
Instruments.

Do you properly understand the ba-
rometer? Many people tap the glass,
note a rise or fall, say it will there
fore be wet or fine, and there end.
But there's more in barometrical sci
ence than that. The following key
might be cut out for reference.
A steady rise shows that fine
weather may be expected, and, in
winter, frost. A rapid rise indicates
unsettled weather. Fine weather i'm
mediately after a rise mus not be ex-
pected to last. The barometer often
rises from a %northward change in
the wind. A fall Of half a tenth or
more in an hour Is a sure warning OF
a storm. A fall with a low thermom-
eter foretells snow or rain. With a
rising thermometer, wind or rain from
the south.
A fall in winter indicates warmer
weather; in hot weather, thunder.
Fine weather may occur with a low
glass, but it precedes wind or rain.
The rise or fall of a barometer rather
than its absolute height shows an ap-
preaching change. SO the usual words,
Fair" Change" ETC., cannot always
be depended on. The rise from a low
point indicates the close approach OF
gales.

Press-Ganq.

The p~ress-gang was an institution
which f1ourished in Great Britain in
the olden times when impressment
the mode resorted to for manning
the navy. The practice, which had not
only the sanction Of custom, but the
force of law, consisted in Selling by
force, for service in the royal navy.
seamen, river watermen and at times
landsmen. The press-gang, an armed
party of reliable men commanded by
officers, usually proceeded to such
houses in the seaport towns as were
supposed to be the resort of the sea-
faring population, laid violent hands
on all eligible men. and conveyed
them forcibly to the ships Of war IN
the harbor. Mitigations of the harsh
laws en- the subject were frequently in
troduced. AS early as 1868 the naval
authorities had to secure the sanction
of the local justices of the peace; in
1885 the term of an impressed mans
service was limited to five years savo
in urgent national necessity. BY that
time the system was becoming obso-
lete, and now the navy is manned y
voluntary service. But the laws sane
tioring impressment are in allegiance,
without being repealed.

TO OVERCOME sUNBURN,
 TAN, FkEckLES, WRINKLES

If your skin is unduly reddened, freckled or tanned. dab liberal amount of mercolized wax on the face and allow it to remain over night. When you wash off the wax in the morning. fine flaky, amost in visible particles of cuticle come with it. Repeating this daily the entire outer skin is absorbed, but so grad. ually there's not the slightest hurt or Inconvenience. Even the stubbornest freckles are affected. The underlying skin which forms the new complexion is so fresh and youthful-looling. you'll marvel at the transformation. It's the only thing known to actually discard an aged, faded, muddy or blotchy complexion. One ounce of mercolized wax, procurable at any drug store, is sufficient in most cases
 If sun and winds make you sauint and frown, you're bound to cultivate wrinkles and crows feet. To over come these quickly, batae the face in a solution made by dissolving an ounce of powdered saxolite in a half pint witch hazel.

 c. E. Bular, the local humane off cer, was present at the meeting, and his report of the work covered al ready for the month of July was proof sufficient that it was necessary to have an organization behind the work her. to help it along The dues of the membership were maae =, with honorary members lips at 80 cents, and life membership to be sold at $10.
 The organization will give it's at tention to looking to providing homes for the children on the streets. to looking to their welfare n such homes as the street urchins have and to helping in the reporting and prosecution of all cases of cruelty to animals which may come to the notice of the members.
