"A number of years ugo I went with frirnd for a trip on Lake Erie. That's the place for storms. His boat was a imnll screw propeller nnd one of tho swiftest affairs ever built Wo saw a storm coming, and, in spite of our efforts to run away from it, it overtook os. Talk about rain! What we encoun tered there was a perpendicular river. My frieDd staid on deck to see that we aidn't ran into anything, and I, (f course, stood by him. In a few minutes I realized that if something wasn't done wo'd drown right in onr trucks, i wait ed my opportunity, and presently, when a big wave came along atid tilted tho bout up so that tho deck stood at an an gle of about 45 degrees, I turned tho en gine loose for all there was in it. I glanced at my friend. Ho was whito r.3 a sheet, bet he graspc d my hand in to ken of his upprovul of w hat I wi;:i do ing. It was a tie -perute chunee, but ir turned out as I hud hoped. The bout be gan to lisu steadily und swiftly ou a slant. It was a time, of horrible sus pense, for we didn't know what minute the craft miyht strike a thin spot in tho storm that the puddlo wheels would.)' t take hold of. But we got safely to the top mid both sank to the deck in utter oxhiiUKtiou. When we recovered suffi ciently, w took a survey of our sur roundings, und I give you my word I never experienced any thing more dremy than the impression mailo by tho tre mendous L'xpuuaj of vneuuey which met mir gr.zo cm till sides. After a few hours uf it I would have given a fortuuo for the sight of a few telegraph poles or tho sound cf a train bey peddling oranges. " "How did you get down?" asked ouo of the group. "We didn't bother about thut. After ploying seveu up till we got tired of the game wo turned in, and when we awakened it was broad daylight. Wu found that us the storm subsided we hud sunk gently until we were drifting in sunshine und sufety on the broud, placid bosom of Lake Erie." "And yon say you don't believe in any suc h thing us an airship?" queried tho mau with the whito vest quietly, "Uf course not. And what I have just told you goes to show thut it would be a lonesome and undesirable institu tion if we had one," "iM.'.ybo it does," wus tho reply. "Muyutt it dues.

Ire. t'nlleuc girl slang Is not often linird out di!e of colli "c walls. To out-id' ts it is chit lly interesting because it gives glimpses of college life. Take tho Word "prod." for example. A "prod" would scarcely bo met with except in tho col lege world, although prodigies might. It, is always a question whether n girl who is culled a "prod" receives tho term In approbation or dignst. There nrc two sorts of "prods," one receiving the term from pure brilliancy In Homo particular line, tho other for general tiul1ounes. Tho latter nro the most irritating, for they nro always ready with unsworn in recitations, while the brilliant "prod" may bo on the ordinary plane of intelligence when nut of her particular sphere. Hhc :s "prod" through no fault of her nwn. A dis tinctly woman's) collegiate word is "crush," expressing a relationship be twecn two girls hard to define. Onn girl, generally nu underclassman and usually a freshman, becomes much at tached to another girl, ordinarily an ups-rrlsss girl. Tho younger girl is "crushed" ou the otltcr, sends her llow th and tries iu various ways to givo expression to her admiration. Tho "crush" soon passes over, tho admirer finding some flaw in her idol, or else, ns is often tho enso, tho "crush" at length loses its youthful seiitimi ntality ami settles down intoa good friendship. If, however, before either of tin so states nro reiichcd tho object, of the "crush" gets weary of the devotion, she n sorts to what ill college palMiice is known tis "squelching," tho highest form of which is a "d. s.," or "di :i:l squelch." This method indeed hasottui to be employed towuid fushniMi. whether "ensiled" or not. to tt !i them their proper place. There 1 an unwritten but well established dr. n e that tipper chus j-iils shall always hi' held as supi l iors. t the first of th" year, tor instance, bet'oro tho enlericr class is thoroughly at home, it would be a decided breach of etiqirct'e for a freshman to nsk a mighty n nior (r junior to dunce. She mu.-t v i'if to bo inviii d. ilut the ireshineii well, tin y don't iindi ! :. nd nil thco impcit;,.!l points, l et a judicious ue of tho "d nil squelch" will touch I hem a pod deal. Iu much the same rati gory with slang lire the abbreviations rife lit i (1 lege. Literature is always "lit," psy chology "psych," dictionary "die." The abbreviation most in the mini': of the girls at present is that ill 'd monster, "exams." Volumes might 1 o written concerning the blue state of the atmosphere during tho time when i v ry one is looking forward to tho "exams. " In tho corridors may ho heard such ques tions us "How many 'exams' have yon got?" "Do yon think we'll have onn in 'lit?' " Then with glcKimy foreboding, "Oh, I'm so afraid I'll think." Then tho synonyms for hard work come into play, "grind," "dig" und "bono." New York Hun. BIRDS AND KITES. The Fratliprrd OfHtiiri's Cnnnot I'nilor ntund 1h Ntrttnc Filers.
