Shooting Start.
Astronomers estimate that about
190.000.000,000 of shooting stars roach
this earth la the form of meteorites or
dust every .rear. Of course ahootlng
stars in reality are not stars at all;
they are little cosmic particles, often
weighing much less than one ounce
and composed mostly of Iron and car
bon. Most of them travel around the
sun In the same fashion that comets
do. following very flattened elliptical
trajectories. Sometimes It happens
that the trajectory of some of these
bodies cross the trajectory of our own
earth. If the little meteorite and the
earth get to that point at the same
time they naturally collide. These
planetoids are not luminous In them
selves. So long as they fly through
ether (which Is utter uothlngness) there
Is 110 friction; therefore no heat and no
light. But as soon as they enter the
atmosphere with which our globe la
suiToundod their speed is so great that
the friction against the air immediate
ly lights and volatilizes them.? New
York World.
Train Your Braathing.
"If one learns to breathe properly
when young he finds the benefit of It
In middle and old age," snld a physi
cian.
"You will notice that when a middle
aged man gets Into a train be holds his
breath and then grunts loudly as ho
sits down. This Is a stupid practice.
It throws a terrific strain on the heart
and may even bnrat a blood vessel In
the lungs or the brain. Many of those
sndden deaths we hear of are flue to
holding the breath while making a vio
lent effort Only the trained athlete Is
usually free from this fault. Athlete
or not. every one should practice easy
and regular breathing. If It cannot bo
managed with closed mouth then the
mouth should be opened when per
forming such operations as lifting a
weight, running upstairs, stepping Into
a railway carriage, and the like. You
may add years to your life by this lit
tle precaution.? London Globe.
A Hearties* Father.
"T need some help with my house
hold duties." announced a Maiden wo
man when her husband came home
the other night.
"What's the matter with our daugh
ter?" the husband wanted to know.
"Our daughter? The Idea! Why.
Jim. you know she's awfully delicate,
and she would die If she had to do any
household work. She has her school,
ana
"And what? Iler teacher's report
shows that she Isn't doing a bit of
school work."
"But she Is the star member of her
basketball team, and you know she Is
eager to take the prize at the gym
nasium contest. But that's Just like a
man? wanting a delicate girl to en
gage In rough, hard labor. Be asham
ed of yourself. Jim Jenkins! You
have no feeling."? Boston Traveler.
Modern "Dew Pond*."
The ancient "dew ponds" of Eng
land hare their modern counterpart!
on the rock of Gibraltar, where drink
ing water is obtained by the conden
sation of the abundant dew in espe
cially prepared basins. The primitive
process consists In making a hollow In
the ground and filling the bottom with
dry straw, over which is placed a lay
er of clay. On a clear night the clay
cools very rapidly, and the dew is con
densed Into water In the basin. The
pond is Improved by putting a layer of
asphalt or portland cement under the
straw. At Gibraltar the present prac
tice is to use wood Instead of straw
and sheet Iron instead of clay.
Elect-ic Centipede*.
I-east attractive among the Insects
which give light are the so called
"electric centipedes." black crawlers
with many legs which have been liken
j <?d to serpents' skeletons In miniature.
They move In a snakelike fashion, for
| ward or backward, leaving behind
I them a bright track of phosphoric light
However, they are most accustomed to
appear In the daytime, when the Il
lumination they afford Is not visible?

Made the Cannon Balls Pit.
The first battle of the war of 1812
was fought at Sacketts Harbor, July ?,
1812, and consisted of an attack made
upon the village. The Inhabitants had
but one gun of sufficient size and
strength to Inflict damage, a thirty -t^b
ponnder, for which they had no shot
This difficulty was overcome by the
; patriotism of the housewives, who tore
: up carpets from the floors and with
strips wound the small balls to fit the
j cannon.
