ARE DRAWN UP WITH WATER
Simple Explanation of Showers of Fish
Which Are Reported as Occasion
ally Occurring.

Showers of fishes occasionally fall In
different parts of the world, exciting
great establishment. Instances of this
kind have occurred in England. On
one occasion a shower of small three
spined sticklebacks fell near Merthyr-
Tydvil, in Wales, sprinkling the ground
and housetops over a large area. If
caught up by a whirlwnd from any
of the brackish ponds near the sea- in
which this species OF fish ab0unds, they
must have been conveyed through the
air a distance of almost thirty miles.
Another similar instance occurred at
Torrens, in the Isle of Null, in which
500 yards from the sea and 100 feet
above it. Such downfalls are more
common in tropical countries. In
India a shower of fishes varying from
: pound and ha,f to three pounds in
weight has been reported. Sometimes
the fishes are living, more frequently
they are dead, and sometimes dry or
purifying. They are always of kinds
abundant in the sea or fresh waters of
the neighborhood. The occurrence of
the phenomenon is readily explained
by the partial vacuum and strong up
draught produced in the center of
tornado Such a whirling column, if
passing over the surface of lake or
river or of the sea, may suck up a con
siderable quantity of the water along
with any living creatures that may be
in it. This may be carried for a con
siderable distance, and is discharged
as waterspout or cloudburst when
the rotational energy of the whirl is
expended.

MIND HYPNOTlZED BY SIGNS
One Reason Why City Man Fails to
Famiiarize Himself With the
Towns Landmarks.

''Do you know why it is so hard TO
keep landmarks in your head in the
city these days?' asked the old
timer.
ut is something that has bothered
me a great deal. | can remember that
up to ten or twenty years ago | never
had any trouble remembering that on
such and such a corner was a three
story building with a wabbly tin
cornice. On another corner was a
yellow warehouse, etc.
But fellow doesn't remember
these things any more unless he makes
it a duty. l mean that the mind is
no longer impressed photographically
with the appearance of buildings-or
vacant lots.
"The reason is the advertising signs
that assault the eye wherever one
looks. The letters Of the alphabet are
so familiar to the eye that when we
see sign the eye at once begins trac-
ing the letters. This doesn't mean
that we read all these signs. Our eye
is just unconsciously attracted to the
familiar type-and this type is about
all it sees on building or a vacant
lot.
81 don't refer only to sign boards.
The merchants nowadays, particularly
the smaller merchants, fill their win
dows with signs of all descriptions.
The names of the stores are lettered
all across buildings. The result Is
we remember neither building nor
sign"
