Movements of Air CMrrénu, Devel- oped by High Buyildings, Make Study That ls ‘Interesting. .You may learn. many interesting things about air currents and the way storms develop by watching the move- ment of pieces of paper, or perhaps your hat, as it s whirled about the | strect. | A variety of miniature windstorms are developed by the high buildings of our cities or the forms of streets, which will repay careful study. On| a hot day even, when the air is per- fectly quiet, the atmosphere, as it be- comes heated tends to rise ngainst the ! gides of rockg or buildings. and if it travels far enough will devilop in a strong wind, which descends,on the opposite side and plays queer’ pranks. A small whirlwind is often produced | by the action of wind against a cor-- ner formed by several buildings. As | m\'e wind travels down a street, espe- cinlly a narrow one, it rapidly in- creases in veloclty. A litle will spill | into the side streets, but the main | stream will flow on, gathering mo- MINIATURE STORMS IN CITY mentum. Watch the wind strike against the | side of a high bullding and notice | how it mushrooms out on all sides, “splitting into many air currents and trace these till they come to rest, but ! be sure to hold tightly to your hat in the meantime.—Boys' Life. JURORS AND TRIAL LAWYERS | ‘Men Who Render the Verdict Said to Have a Distinct Infiuence Over the Counsel. Juries differ widely. Charles R\ls-‘ sell used to say,. for instance, that there wus ull the difference in the world Dbetween English and ris Jurles, remarks the Manchester (Eng.) Guardiau, Irish jurles enjoyed the fun and the dramu of a trial; they entered into it all and appreciated the cut and thrust; whereas Iuglish juries were concerned more With wol dering how %oon they would be re- leased. But there is a characteristic com- mon to all juries. They have quite as™| much influence, though in a different | way, over counsel as counsel have over them. One of the greatest of advocates, Scarlett, Lord Abinger, de- clared that his success was due chiefly | to the rule he made of selecting one | particular juryman, not necessarily the foreman, and addressing the argument | us If to him personally. He would ilen work away till he felt that he had convineed this man and could re- Iy on him when the verdict was belng considered. African Seeds.

Among the many new crops, one that is viewed with interest is a gourd two feet long, which contains two gallons of succulent seed ubout the size of an aimond. The meat of these seeds resembles that of the but-, ternut in taste, and, in addition te their possibilities as a nut substitute, they are rich in oil. Many new kaffiv corns and sorghums, as well as grasses, suitable for the semiarid West, a5 well as the pine lands of.the South, ‘some excellent new mangoes, a number of ofl plants, some dry-land rice, and a ' large number of grains and grasses are among the specimens. The depart- ment hus found that several crops which flourish In central Africa are | adapted to the southern parts of the southwestern United States. The American-Egyptian cotton and Sudan grass are among the noteworthy ac quisitions as a result of previoug ex- peditions. _ Giant Eels. A 1t Is said there are eels no one can land. Some years ago a giunt conger was caught in shallow water off the shores of England. It measured 8 feet 8 inches in length and weighed 148 pounds, been known to bite a man's hand in two and to have driven their teeth through the blade of an oar. In 1913 Kakanamsku, the chfimpion swimmer of Honoluly, was attacked I by a giant eel, Which dragged him i under water, and held him there for nearly two minutes. He escaped at last, but at the cost of 4 finger from his right hand. Eels attain an immense size in the rivers of Néav Zealand and have been known to attack bathers. In fact, many cases of drowning have been proven to be where eels have dragged the bathers beneath the surface of the water. Resigned.
