The .'mislaying" of the minor planets
is sometimes due to their actually fail
ing TO keep their appointments at the
places where. according to calculation.
they ought 10 be. An instance Is the
case of No. 1853, otherwise known as
Hilda. DR.. Palisa discovered her In
1879 and calculated her orbit. Bat at
tempts to find her again failed. and
she was almost given up as lost until
DR.. Falisa found her again in 1874
long way. however, from where she
had been expected. The discrepancy
was caused by the effect upon Hllda
OF the attraction Of Jupiter, Of whom
she is a comparatively near neighbor.
For these little planets are scattered
over a wide belt. Hilda gets within
83.0OOO00 miles of the orbit OF Jupiter,
and Aethra at times actually comes
nearer to the sun than Mars ever does.

Thirst, a word OF Anglo-Saxon origin
and akin to the Latin torreo and our
torrid or parched. describes a pecullai
sensation Of dryness and heat located
Ia the tongue and throat Artificial
thirst may be produced by the passage
Of n current Of air over the mucous
membrane Of these parts, but normal
thirst is the consequence Of a lack Of
liquid In the system. The agony Of ex.
IRENE thirst Is due to the fact that all
The tissues sympathize In this distress.
Il IA then as a refreshing relief that
n supply Of water comes to thirsting
lips, replacing what has been lost cool
Ing the parched palate and rapidly
removing the craving which has de
pressed the system. In short, water
quenches thirst Just because It supplies
what at the moment Is wanting and Is
most eagerly desired. SO that Solomon
could proro compare the gift Of
"cold waters 70 a thirsty soul' to the
advent Of good news. Thirst is to
some extent anpeased by the injection
OF water Into the blood or body, though
no fluid touches the part to which the
sensation Is referred.

Il am happy because 1t Is so easy
for me to WRITE" said beginner to
one OF the great masters Of French
prose.
Go home and pray" said the mas
ter, ''that 1t may come hard"
II is so Of writing. so Of thinking, so
Of life. The easy thing is barely worth
doing. The hard thing Is worth do
ing, though the end be failure. A
goal, TO make which one fairly tugs at
life and yet misses. Is better than a
victory softly won.
So often the man who speaks easily
tells us least. while the sparing words
one wrenches from n taciturn speaker
are imbedded in thought. Shakespeare
said that Gratiano talked more than
any other man in all Venice. But he
compared his speech to a bushel Of
ehafr in which lay hidden a single
grain of wheat and that not worth the
finding.-Toledo Blade.
