SIGNS OF RAIN.
8!mple Things That Tell Us When a
8torm Is Brewing.
On the subject of predicting rain, Rol
lln Lynde Hartt In the Woman's Home
Companion ■writes In part as follows:
"There are plenty of soundly scien
tific weather signs that are right be
fore our eyes and vouched for by the
best meteorologists. For Instance, the
'ring around the moon,' which Is pro
duced by a thin, filmy cloud made up
of minute particles of ice—a state of
things not built to last. Either some
unlooked for commotion will put a stop
to It in a different manner, or It will
pour 'cats and dogs' within three days
at most In eighty-six easea out of a
hundred the rule holds good. A still
better sign is the 'ring around the sun.'
"This is science, pure and simple, and
so Is the old maxim: 'The farther the
sight the nearer the rain.' It is not
pessimism that makes people along the
coast predict a downpour when they
can pick out the separate houses on a
faraway island, or people in mountain
ous regions call it 'too good to last,'
when a distant peak, generally Invisi
ble, comes into view. They are shrewd
meteorologists In making these pre
dictions, and also in declaring that
sounds carry better when a rainstorm
is brewing.
"Of all nice, convincing weather
signs, however, a 'sickening sky' is
pretty nearly the most reliable. When

A FAMOUS SUBMARINE, j
In Its Day Le Diablo Marin Was Con
sidered a Marvel.
Le Dlnble Mnriii (the Sen Devil) was
one of the most famous of the nine
teenth century submarines. It was
the invention of Wilhelin Bauer, who
launched it in lSoi',.
This vessel was built of iron. She
was fifty-two feet Ions, twelve feet
wide and eleven feet deep and shaped
somewhat like a dolphin. Her sides
were six-tenths of an Inch thick and
could resist the pressure of a 150 foot
column of water.
The motive power was provided by
a screw, which was operated by a
treadmill, and the up or down motion
was achieved by shifting water in lon
gitudinal tanks by means of pistons.
At the bow was a bomb or torpedo
containing fifty pounds of powder, and
near it were two heavy India rubber
gloves, by means of which a man in
side the vessel could reach out and
fasten the bomb to the bottom or side
of a ship. To purify the air Bauer ar
ranged long pipes, which were quite
effective in revivifying the stale air
for a short time.
The Russian government supplied
him with a crew of eighteen men, who
were to make a trial trip with him,
but on his first descent they were so
alarmed as to lie useless, and when
the Diablo Marin rose again to the sur
face they cried, "Praise l>e to God!"
When his men were more accustom
ed to the work l'aner executed many
wonderful maneuvers and on one occa
sion stayed under water while he
wrote letters to his mother. King Max
imilian of Bavaria and the Grand Duke
Constant inc.—Boston Globe.
The Knight of Snowdon.
A Cambridge Ilipb school boy fig
ured out the character of James Fitz
James in "The Lady of the Lake." lie
did it on a piece of paper which his
teacher took away from him. Here is
what he calls the "Knight of Snow
don:"
"A bow legged, knock kneed, pigeon
toed, cock eyed, broken nosed, donkey
earned, bone headed, wiggley, crippled
nut."
As if that were not clear enough, he
accompanied the epithets with draw
ings, evidently of the noble knight
with the sun laughing at him from the
skies.—Boston Record.
Constitutional Government.
By "constitutional government" is
meant the government that has checks
imposed upon it»by a written (or un
written) constitution or charter. The
United States and England and France
and various other countries are "con
stitutional" in this sense, whereas Rus
sia and one or two other countries are
nonconstitutionai because of the ab
sence of the above mentioned checks,
the will of the czar, etc., being practi
cally supreme.—New York American.
