If you a.sk a scientific man why* a
stone falls to the ground he will tell
yuo that he doesn't know. Not long
ago he would have roplied that it fell
to the ground because the earth and
stone attract one another. This is very
much the same as saying that an
supported stone falls to the ground
because, as ha« been ascertained by
frequent experiments, an unsupported
stone falls to the ground.—Scientific

CHASING THE RAINBOW
Curious Legends That Are Told In
Different Countries
We have all of us heard stories of
the treasure at the eud of the rain
bow. There is a pot of gold there, you
know. And if we could only walk far
enough run fast enough we might find
it and be ever thereafter happy.
That is what our nurses tell us when
we are children, isn't it?
And some times we learn that the
rainbow is a bridge, and the thunder
is the roar of the heavy wheels going
over it.
These are the stories that we hear
in childhood about the rainbow. Chil
dren of other lands hear many other
stories.
In Greece nurses tell the children
that if any one by chance stumbles
over the cud of the rainbow his or her
sex is changed. A fine story that to
tell a child! The little Greeks must
run away from the ends of the rain
bow instead of seeking them to find
our pot of gold. /
The little Turk hears from his nurse
that if he can but touch the band of
orange that Bpans the heavens in the
rainbow his head will turn to silver,
with rubies for eyes and teeth of gold.
In many parts of Russia tho rain
bow is culled a pump, and in Hungary
it is called "God's pump" and
•Noah's pump."
In Russia, in some provinces, the
wells are covered with strong plat
forms, so that the water cannot be
drawn from them by the raiubow and
in other provinces it is said that three
angels have charge of the rainbow
one to draw water through it from the
earth, another to give water from it to
the clouds and another to return the
water to the earth in the form of rain.
—Boston Herald.
Wagner to the Musicians
Wagner's little admonition to the
musicians was most characteristic and
worthy to be noted by many an or
chestra of this day. "Gentlemen," he
said, "I heg of you not to take my
fortissimo too seriously. Where you
see 'IT' make an 'fp' of it, and for
piano play .pianissimo. Kemcmber how'
many of you there are down there
against the one poor single human
throat up here alone on the stage."—
Neumann's "Personal Recollections."
Ypres in England
We have the name of Ypres in Eng
land—in that of the Ypres tower at
Rye, in Sussex, though local talk
knows nothing of its proper |ironunci
ation and brondly ealles it the "Wip
ers tower." It is a twelfth century
building, the oldest secular building of
all the Cinque ports and was at oue
time the only stronghold of the town,
though later walls and gates were
built. The reason for its name is to be
found in the commonly accepted state
ment that it was built by William des
Ypres, early of Kent.—Loudon Globe.

LOSSES OF PRINT OR IRE

Trading Is Extensive, Big Xtots of Tf.S.

By Associated Press.
Now York, April 12.—Wall Street*—
Resumption of stock dealings to-day
WHS in marked contrast to lust week's
frenzied movement. Instead tif further
advances, the list evinced a reactionary
trend, with numerous losses of a point
or mure.
Trading was again extensive, how
evor, U. S. steel, Ueadiug, Southern Pa
cific and Baltimore and Ohio being of
fered in lots of 10,000 shares or over.
l T iiion Pacific, Canadian Pacific and
Heading were among the heaviest issues.
In ketv ing with its recent actiou, Beth
lehem steel pursued a contrary course
losing a point at the outset, and soon
advancing three. Secondary prices
showed general improvement.
The business of the first honr was
well in excess of 300,000 shares
which constituted a record for that
period, except last Saturday when over
half a million shares changed hands.
Early losses wore largely recovered
despite persistent realizing, but to
wards midday the list fell back again,
Reading and a few other leaders going
under initial declines.
ISolling was mainly of locai and
European origin but commission houses
reported further out of town buying
on a morn moderate scale. Steel was
under restraint because of its unsat
isfactory March tonnage statement but
Bethlehem Steel scored a maximum
rise of five points. Bonds were firm.

" Valley of Dried Bones"
The island of .lamaica possesses a
"valley of dried bones." It is near
the Cnnacuna gap, in the Maroon couh-
I ty. This valley, though in the heart of
the "wet country," is bare of leaf and
life. The limestone rock is hot. Giuut
trees, which seem to have been blighted
suddenly, stand up gaunt and dead.
Although vegetation seems to have
bet- dense here in former year*, noth
ing will now During the hot sea
son the temperature is almost unbear
able. It ic visited by seismic diaturb
ances, which cause the dead trees aud
hot Btonen to rattle like dry bones.
