Miss Rioketts left Hillside to-day for trip to New York, New Jersey and Virginia where at New Port News she usually passes March and April with her sister.
 The late heavy snow was admirable for rolling into balls and the snow man, that rapidly grew to gigantic proportions, was SO cold hearted as to show no sympathy for the lads who worked so hard that they made them selves ill demonstrating that there are giants in these days.
 The roads, the weather and the fuel supply all related subjects from basis for conversation, the time long pre- dicted when stove wood as fuel would give place to coal seems to be ap. preaching. It has often been asserted that in the swamp north of the Hill large quantities of peat was waiting to be pressed into bricks for fuel. A party of state forestry experts a few years ago visiting the location of the old beaver dam and pond said there was little doubt that in time this would be expedient, lucrative as we'll as necessary.

Ex-President Adams and Daniel Webster became her especial friends. and she soon was welcome ssticst in the best society. In few weeks after her arrival she presented a z petition to. congress asking, first, to be admitted to the rights of citizenship and. secondly, to be given "a corner of land~ out of the public domain of the country which bore the name of her ancestor. An adverse report, which s,son was made, is one of the curiOsl- : ties of congressional literature. It eu- logk,ed the petitioner as "a young, dig nifjod and graceful lady, with a mind of the highest intellectual culture and 1Ieart beating with all our own en- thusiasm in the cause of American and human liberty" The reasons why the prayer of the petitioner could not be granted were given, but she was com mended to the generosity of the Amer jean people.

 Shortly after Rurlingilme came into active life he made a journey to Eu- rope. The. American minister obtained for him a ticket of admission to the house of commons.

Why Sash Windows?

Our mode of life is based upon our theories. Our sash windows are prob ably the most irrational things in crea- tiOn. They appear to have been first invented in Holland and brought over to England toward the close of the sev- enteenth century in place of the ration al French windows. 1t must have been d curious person who invented the for mer, which are often dangerous owing to the breaking of the cords while q draft k always pouring in between the two sasheS. What their advantage Is no one can understand. On the other hand, French windows, as will be cas- fly seen anywhere on the continent or in Egypt or elsewhere, may be closed to exclude either draft or noise. More over seldom if ever do we have double windows such as are used through out northern EW0pe.-LOndOn Science Progress.

Mhsn Wild Winda Rio,x.

Most of us are apt to look on storm as simply strong wind blowing straight from one place to another. II is not so at all, foraa, storm wind al ways blows in curve, and storm is not really wind, but a whole whee! of winds with curying spokes. These curving spokes represent the various winds. all blowing toward the hub. This hub is called the eye of the storm. It is the spot at which the barometer is lowest. On the rim of the wheel the barometer is high, and the nearer tine hub thelOwer is the barOm eter. This wheel of winds Is usually several hundred miles across.

OLD KASsAM VILLAGE.
Curious Alaskan Landmark In the Ton
 gass National Forest.


 No other locality is quite like "Old Kassan National Monument" a unique tract of land held by the United States government. 1t cons iStS of thirty-eight acres within the TOngass national for est, Alaska. and the tract embraces tile well known abandoned Haida Indian village of old KaSSan, situated on Prince of Wales island, in southeastern Alaska, about thirty miles west of the city o. Ketchikan. ,.+
 The village was abandoned by the Indians about ten years ago. Among the relics which remain there are abdut fifty Indian totem poles, five or six of which are clasSed as exceedingly good specimens. In the deserted village there are also eight large square build ingS which were originally construct ed according to the peculiar plan of the Haida Indians and which, 1t is stated by those best qualified to know, repre- sent the best specimens of Haida ar chitecture that now exist. The largest of these buildings is approximately 40 by 60 feet in size and is made entirely of round and carved timbers.
 There also remain d number of h. dian graves, with the typical small grave houses erected by the Alaskan Indians.
