WHEN SUN "DRAWs WATER"
Come Erroneous Ideas That Saem to
Have Taken Firm Hold on shs
@ Peoples Imagination.

When the sun is to the east or west
Of us on cloudy or hazy day. beams
are often seen radiating from 1t toward
the horizon; then many people say
he sun is drawing wAtss. They &C.
tually believe that the lines of light
and shadow appearing to converge In
the sun are great shafts Of water and
the vapor that the sun is drawing up
into the air to be precipitated later on
the earth as rain or snow. These
shafts as a matter of fact are general
ly indicative Of coming rainy weather,
but they cannot be counted on as in
fallib1e signs.
4 The idea that the sun ia drawing
water" however, is entirely erroneous:
for the lines seen are the result Of
the. passage of light through openings
In clouds already formed. The lines
that appear dark are shadows Of
clouds while the light lines are rays
from the sun made visible In the air
BY the presence therein Of dust or wa
terry vapor, just as the dust In the
air of room makes visible the light
that enters it through small apertures.

different scent from the brunette:

When the line from Paris to. st. Ger
main was opened, the first train car
ried an omcial party, for whom lunch
was ordered. The meal was fixed
for noon. and shortly before that
hour some potatoes were put on to
fry. A few minutes afterward mes
sage came that tbs train would prob
ably be delayed for an hour, so the
potatoes were taken of the fire, but
LETT in the pan: Then came a second
message. Train just arriving" and
the potatoes were hurriedly put back
to fry again When the party sat
down to lunch the potatoes were
brought on with steak. TIC the de-
light of the guests, each chip was
then found to be blown out like

had unconsciously invented pommes
