The ureater danger from electric storms called forward for punishment, but re

conquered, however, and gave the lad a
thrashing which drew blood. Tho fa
ther of the boy bad the teacher arrested
for assault and battery. The presiding
judge said that the boy's act- was one of
insubordination, and that it had to be do
cided then and thero who was at tho head
of the school. In the opinion of the
iudgo the whipping was not too severe.

most coiniiion-scnse precautions are ex
ercised. The surest electrical conductor
is a draught, and if, whena tliiindorstorm
approaches, it is seen that all windows
and doors liable to occasion a draught
are kept closod, the danger i at once re
duced to a minimum. If a woman is
"caught" out in a thunder storm tbe
safest bholtcr is in a house; tho most
dangerous a tree, particularly an oak
tree. It is a peculiar, but nevertheless a
proven fuct, that tho oak is tho most bus
coptiblo of all trees to a current of elec
tricity. --Ivor fifty per cent, of the trees
struck by lighYn'ing storms during one
summer, tho government statistician
tells us, were oaks, wbilo the Ijcim Ii was
the least harmed. Therefore, the '.VOrsi
possible placo of shelter in an electrical
storm is under an oak tree, while by all
odds, tho safest placo is hi a house and
out of a draught. Tho actual danger
(from an electrical stoini) is, iu truth not
from the lightning nor tho thunder, but
from tho nervous condition into which
women allow themselves to fall. And
this is a dangor which they can avoid.
A little calm thought and a few grains of
common sense will do it."
