Such evidence strongly sup- ports the theory that there is a vast bank of aqueous vapor coming up the gulf stream, which has been swaying from east to west and back again over the Atlantic, and which required only a local agitation at any point to cause sud- den condensation and an overwhelming dis- charge of rain. The causes of the movement, and the way to prevent its distressing results, if only by foreseeing events long enough to issue warnings, are subjects to which the prac- tical meteorologists can apply their science with real benefit to mankind. ‘The Cutest Gingham Dresses at prices that may de- ceive you.
