LAND HOLDS HEAT.
Why Southern Hemisphere 10 Colder
Than the Northern.

Why Southern Hemisphere Is Colder
Than the Northern.
Although most authorities have de-
scribed the southern hemisphere as
only slightly colder than the northern
(the annual means, according to Spi-
taller being 1870 deg. C. and 1852 deg.
c., respectively, DIR. G. c. Simpson,
the we'll known British meteorological,
has recently declared that the south
ern hemisphere is much the colder, and
has explained why. The air Is not
warmed by the passage of the suns
rays through 1t, but by contact with
the warm ground beneath. In the nor
thern hemisphere there are large
masses of land to absorb the suns en-
ergy and give heat to the atmosphere,
while in the southern the surface is
mainly water. The whole mass OF
land within the antarctic circle Is per-
manently covered with ice, which is
practically a perfect reflector, and thus
returns to space most OF the solar en-
ergy that falls upon 1t. DIR. Simpson
thinks the fact that 100000 square
miles of the earth's surface in the
southern hemisphere reflect into space
a large part of the energy received
from the sun" is one of the chief rea-
sons for the difference in temperature
between the two hemispheres.

gold was extracted from $50 tons OF
ore.

I had been pounding away strenuously |
for about one and half hours, MT.
Assayer appeared standing in the door
way, asking me what in the name OF

Whereupon | told him OF Mr.. Criieys
proposition and our bets. He laughed
and said: "You are not chump enough
to waste your time on any such fool
proposition as that, are you" ! re-
piled that | was, and told him Of the
story of my friend and the pigeons,
and that a man without hobby was
a "hass," that had found man with
la hobby and wanted to determine
which was the ass, he or myself An
other hour passed laboriously along,
when Mr.. Assayer again came to the
door: Say have been thinking this
proposition over. and there might be
