Most Violent Storms
Occur in United States

The most violent storms known any
where occur in the interior Of the
North American continent, especially
in the middle western United States,
and most frequently in late spring
and summer Their most conspicuous
feature Is a whirling black cloud hang
ing from a mass Of dark storm clouds.
This cloud may be funnel shaped
or balloon shaped, or like the trunk
of huge elephant. 1t is really a wa
terspout on land, though larger than
the marine waterspout. 1t sweeps
over a path averaging a quarter of a
mile in width and about twenty-five
miles in length. Wherever it touches
the earth it aceomplishes surprising
feats of devastation.
In comparison with the area COW
cred by a cyclone one of these storms
is of Insignificant size. 1t is, in fact,
a purely local affair. Hence, at any
given place in the United States such
a storm is an exceedingly rare event,
though throughout the country several
such storms occur every year. These
storms are known TO meteorologists as
"tornadoes" In popular parlance
they are almost universally, but in
correctly described as cyclones. -

Webster's Life Policy
Had Odd Restrictions

An interesting relic recently shown
was the life insurance policy issued
September 20, 1874, to Daniel Web
ster. 1t was for $1,000, which was
considered a large sum in those days,
and carried a premium Of 1898. The
policy mentions certain restrictive
clauses. If Daniel wanted to visit
large city, Washington included, or
journey west of the Mississippi river,
he had to get permission Of the COM
pany and pay extra.
But Webster did not 60 into the
wilds west Of the Mississippi. He
never had much use for that country,
anyhow. The idea of the insurance
company in imposing the limitations
was that smallpox was likely to be
epidemic in the large cities, while the
Indians were the hazard of the West.
Webster was also advised that If he
died in a duel, was hanged or killed
in a raid upon any city or Indian tribe
there would be no money for the
widOw.-Detroit News.

Where Realization
Beaks Authorization


One Of the most delightful expert
ences that know comes TO me when
ever leave the city and plunge for
time into the wilderness. 1t does
not matter how prosaic the transition
Il may stumble, laden with baggage,
to a hot and crowded train, in which
stodgy men are forever bowed over
the sporting page and tired women are
scoldIng peevish children and scat
tered fragments Of their too generous
lunches cover the floor; the train may
snort and fume Its tedious way
through leagues OF suburban uglIness.
All that does not matter. can shut
my eyes with the sense Of blessed
release, for know that at the end OF
the journey there il tranquility, writes
William Chase Greene In the North
American Review. Long before I have
actually reached the hills l can feel
the breath Of the pine forest, can
feel the GOODNESS of that first dip in
the lake closing about me; already ]
am standing at the edge of a cliff,
watching the cloud shadows on the
distant range.
The peculiar delight Of the adven-
ture, however, is that realization al
ways surpasses anticipation. That dip
in the lake is always more deliciously
cool than l had imagined; the still
ness of the mountain side, the broken
chorus of bird notes, the hushed voice
of hidden waterfall, the whIteness
Of the forest flowers, always overcome
me with new surprise. The very
sense of remOteness, though eagerly
expected, seems unexpected.
