Hot Blast of Volcanoes.

Writing in the Monthly Weather
Review, George N. Cole sets forth
detailed arguments to prove that the
hot blast which swept over the city
of st. Pierre during the eruption of
Mont Pelee, as well as similar blasts
in connection with the eruption of We
suvius that destroyed Pompeii and
Herculaneum. the eruption of Taal.
Sakurajima, etc., derived it's heat from
the sudden compression of the air sur
rounding the volcano, and not from
conditions in the volcano itself. In
other words, it was not, according to
this hypothesis, an outpouring OF hot
crater gases that caused the destruc-
ton, but the dynamic heating of the
air attending the propagation of the
explosion wave. Mr. Cole cites num-
Der of interesting observations at st.
Pierre after the Martinique disaster

BoUDOIRWEAR
Everything for the Boudoir.
Exquisite Things for Brides.
MISS KIP. MRS. CHIVVIS.

The cousin painted it well and illu-
minated it with elaborate initials and
an allegorical figure Of young lady
in Cubist negligee. It had the tradi-
tional charm of a tavern board. In
fact, their shop was to be tavern for
women in search of sartorial refresh
ment.
Troubles mustered about them as
weeds shove up in garden faster
than they can be plucked out. Ex-
penses undreamed of materialiZed in
swarms. Everything was delayed ex-
cept the demands for their money.
The petty-cash box. like sort of per-
verified fairy purse, emptied itself as
fast as it was filled.
The petty cash was the least of
their dismay. The grand cash was the
main problem. They had stitched
their fingers full of holes and piled up
reams of fabrics, but the total was
pathetically tiny.
One thing was instantly demon
strated. They must give up their plan
or go into debt. Indeed, they already
were in debt.
"We've got to take the plunge" said
Daphne. "Td rather die than go on
paying years rent for an empty
shop"
81 know" Mrs. Chivvis fretted,
gnawing her thin lips, "but it's risk.
You'd better ask your brother"
"No" Daphne stormed. I'm going
to win out on my own. Poor Bayard
is too busy to be bothered with my
troubles. He doesn't know have any.
And Leila is so busy with her social
business that she never asks me what
I'm up to.
"But what are we to do?" Mrs.
Chivvis walled. "We can't go on with
our stock, and you have no money
left, and hadn't any to start with"
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1919-04-18

CARING us all for spite? What else
is it but cheap, nasty spite?"
tits great deal more than spite"
Bayard groaned. do You think I'll
accept favors from man who has
been counting you and got caught at
lit? I'd rather starve I"
swell, / wouldn't!" Leila averred.
.And I'm not going to starve. And
I'm not going to let you commit hari-
kari on Wetherelps doorstep just to
spite him. I tell you again, once for
all, there was nothing wrong in Weth-
erell's behavior, absolutely nothing.
It's outrageous that you should accuse
me of such horrible things"
So Bayard was coerced into having
his life saved by his enemy. 1t was
one thing, however, to consent to deal
with Wetherell, and another to devise
tolerable reconciliation.
SWELL" Bayard sighed, ''beggars
can't be choosers. If I'd saved my
money shouldn't have to take Weth-
erell's money"
Bayard called up the president OF
his company at the Office. His Grafton
made huge success. Bayard began
to smile to himself, to wink at the
spectators, and finally to share in the
apparent rapture Of his distant ear
| to-ear.
The end Of the matter was that when
Bayard left the telephone he was a
new man. He had cunningly raised
his chiefs hopes to the highest de
gree, yet withheld the name Of the
English agent. He explained that he
intended to take Leila's advice and
use his knowledge as lever for his
| own advancement and Clay's.
Clay and Bayard sat down to make
| figures, and the talk grew too tech
meal for the women to endure. After
hearing the first music of Bayard and
Clay chanting in hundreds of thou
sands of dollars Daphne stole out I'M
needed and went up to her own room.
Mr.. Chivvis was sitting by win
dow in mournful idleness. Mrs. Chiv.
Wis was stitching away at her en-
I
broidery. She was cheerful-for her
She told Daphne that she had found
| a market for her needlework; the
prices were poor but they were real.
She advised Daphne to get to work
with her.
Daphne had not the courage to say
that her brother and her betrothed
were about to become plutocrats. She
said only that she was very tired
And there is no more exhausting drain
on the nerves than their response to
unexpected good news. It is more
