Th Delioete Balar.oe of the Gigantic
Bag of Gas.
It is while discharging ballast to
enter the higher altitudes that you
get your first idea of the hair trig
ger balance of the giant contriv
ance keeping you afloat. Your pi
lot takes a small wooden scoop, no
bareex ihum test •Jidiuary tissd soup
ladle, digs into on* of the sand bags

overboard. TTp darts your balloon

to ond it up £SO foot, and if you

ecif without risk of killing any one
the vekmee of this weight will send
you up on oilier 800 feet. deli
cately poised it your balloon onco
it lyis siruok ite balance that you
could push it up or pull it down
from 300 to 400 feet with strength
equal to that, of your little finger.
When a mere cloud passes be
tween you and the sun, causing in
stant contraction of the gas in the
balloon, the envelope becomes bag
gy and flaccid at once, and you be
gin to fall, sometimes at tbe rate of
a thousand feet a minute, although
you have no warning of this other
than the statoseope and no sensa
tion except the thrill as you see th“
alarming rapidity with which the
earth comes nearer to you. Three
or four scoopfuls of sand may be
necessary to sacrifice before you
again strike your balance, and the
next moment the sun darts from
behind the eloud, warms the bal
loon, and the envelope tautens al
most with a bang, and you go kit
ing upward under your lightened
load until you are obliged to open
the escape valve to let out gas to
prevent going up above your orig
inal level. Then it is that you be
gin to understand why the bugbear
of the aeronaut is alternate cloud
and sunshine, why he prefers sail
ing during the night and why, if he
does sail throughout the day, he
mounts high above the clouds in
continuous sunshine, where the vol
ume of gas in the balloon remains
constant. —A. W. ltolker in Ameri
can Magazine.
Monotonous Seertery.
Mrs. Grime*, the landlady, was
trying to find ent the Mature of her
new hoarder’s occupation. First
she asked him if he was in business.
ITe told her that he was not. Then
khe suggested that possibly he was a
salesman.
“No, I’m not a salesman exactly.”
"Traveling man ?”
“Yes, I am a aort of traveling
man.”
“Make regular trip#, I suppose.”
“Very regular.”
“Well, I should think you’d like
that. There’s some variety about
it.”
“There isn’t much variety about
my trips. They're always through
the same territory.”
“That gets kind o’ tiresome, does
it?”
“Very.”
“Still, if business is good and you
make plenty of sales” —
“But I don’t make any sales. The
fact is, Mrs. Grimes. I am a cou-
SPENCER MONUMENT TO
BE EREGTEO IN ATLANTA.
A large number of resolutions un
animously adopted by the employes
in various departments expressing a
desire to erect a suitable monument
to the memory of the late Samue
Spencer, President cf the Southern
Ry. Cos. who lost h*s life in an acci
ient Nov. ”9, 1906, have uoet with
the uearty approval of the executive
ifhcers.
It baa been decided to erect this
monument on the plaza in front of
the Terminal Station in Atlanta, be
cause Mr. Spencer was a native
Georgian. This particular site in
front of the Terminal Station was
chosen because this station itself is a
monument of Air. Spencer’s own
energy and love for this state, while
what is to be erected is a testimonial
of the employs klov* and esteem for
him whose kindness of heart ever led
him to treat with the same conaider
ation hta humblest employs and his
highest offlser.
POPULAR OANCES.
Ths Origin or the Significance of Their
Names.
The names of popular dances
have in most cases a very interest
ing origin or signification.
The position taken up by tbe
dancers gave the name to the
quadrille, which is literal French
lor “a little nquaie,” while country
dance has no connection with rustic
■rrmuMtics, but is simply a corrup
tion of the French centre danse,
which has reference to the position
of the couples opposite to each oth
er during the dance.
The lancers derived its name
from the fact that this variation of
the quadrille was originally impro
vised by a company of lancers for
thoir own amusement while seated
in their saddles.
The polka is a Polish dance, and
its name eomo6 from the Bohemia*
word polka, meaning half, and re
fers to the half step which ooour#
in this lively measure, of which the
more graceful schottish is a varia
tion, both names, like that of the
national dance of Poland—the ma
zourka —being native terms.
The short steps peculiar to the
old time favorite, the minuet, gave
the dance its name, the Latin for
“small” being minutus.
The waltz, again, owes its name
to its characteristic movement, the
Germaii waltzen, meaning to re
volve, expressing the circling mo
tion of the dancers.
The Kogcr de Coverley is named
after its originator, while the less
familiar dance known as the taran
tella is so called because its vigor
ous movements were supposed to
be a certain antidote to the poison
of a noxious spider at Taranto, in
Italy, where the dance is highly
popular.
The evolutions of the dancer suf
ficiently explain the term reel. Jig
is from the French gigue, and
breakdown is a term from across
the Atlantic and refers to the final
rout before the breakup of a free
and easy dancing party. —London
Telegraph.
A Good Memory,
Of the late genial and kindly
hearted Henry Burch it is told that
a good many years ago, while he
held the position of janitor of Trin
ity Methodist Episcopal church, the
minister one summer Sunday morn
ing delivered a sermon which, it
appears, had been given by him
once before, perhaps two or three
years previous.
On the Sunday in question and
during the progress of the sermon
a violent thunderstorm came up,
which created some little nervous
ness among the congregation.
After the services were over and
as the minister was about to leave
the building lie met the janitor,
“Henry,” said he, “that was a
pretty severe storm while I was
preaching this morning.”
“Yes, Mr. replied Henry,
“and the singular tiling about it is
that there was a thundrestorm the
last time you preached that ser
mon.”—Oil City Blizzard.
Festival of the Dolls.
A curious custom of the Japanese
is that of the observance of a cer
tain day in April of each year called
dolls’ day, or the festival of the
dolls.
On this day all the girls and wom
en array tliemseltes in gaudy attire,
and the mother of each household
adorns the family room in gay col
ors. Then the little girls dress all
their dolls, old and new, in their
best Sunday clothes and prop them
up about the walls. In the after
noon a great feast is prepared, os
tensibly for thq benefit of the dolls,
though the repast is actually con
sumed by the grown folks in the
evening. Japan is the only country
that lias such a festivity.
A Lawyer’s Retort.
A lawyer in Washington was tell
ing some colleagues of neat retorts
he had heard in court when he was
reminded of the interchange of
compliments between a western
judge and a sharp tongued attorney
from Chicago. The judge, a quick
tempered man, had had several
“run ins” with counsel when sud
denly he observed, “I can teach you
law, Mr. Perkins, but I cannot teach
you manners.” “That is true, your
lionor,” retorted the Chicago law
