I years support for herself from the
; estate of said deeiwsed. Notice is here
by given that I will pass on said ap

W. L. STAXSELL, Ordinary.
A Public Barometer.
On the tower of the German mn
seum In Munich Is the dlul plate of
what Is probably the only public ba
ronaetef of Its kJnd In existence. It
shows the weather conditions for the
city of Munich very accurately. The
figures on the dial show the height of
the mercury In centimeters; 71 Is the
average height of Munich, so that n
•wing to the right of this figure Indi
cates fair weather, to the left had
times ahead. The hand on the tower
Is connected electrically to an ordi
nary spring barometer which Is lo
cated elsewhere in the building and
whose slightest movement Is automat
ically followed by the tower hand. The
dial Is over eighteen feet In diameter
and the glided hand weighs nearly a
hundred pounds.
Forests of Canada.
Os the total area of forests In the
British empire, Canada holds more
than f>o per cent. In Panada more
than 85 per cent of the forest area Is
publicly owned. The Canadian people
gain from their forest possessions the
substantial nnnnal revenue of $500,-
000,000. representing the production
of all branches of their forest indus
tries. More than 100,000 men are en
gaged In Canada converting forest
products Into wealth In some form or
other. Nearly 400,000 other people de
pend on this “forest army” for their
food and shelter. In the pulp and pa
per mills are 33,000 men, drawing $40,-
000,000 a year in wages. % The lumber
Industry pays 55,000 men $00,000,000
annually.
Invisible Fineness.
Tungsten, the metal of which the
modem electric bulb filament Is made,
can be drawn into wire so fine as to
be Invisible to the naked eye except
when held against the sunlight. A
pierced diamond Is used as the die
through which the wire Is drawn. This
very tine tungsten wire Is used chiefly
In fuses for delicate electrical experi
mental Instruments, where the slight
est excess In current would destroy the
Intricate and costly apparatus. When
such a rise In the current occurs the
tungsten wire melts and the circuit is
broken.
Tolstoi’s Opinion of Women.
In a recently published volume of
reminiscences, Alexander Borisovich
Goldenwelser, a Russian pianist and
an intimate friend of Tolstoi, says that
one day the great writer, who was
perhaps the greatest feminist of the
century, remarked to him: "If you
won’t repeat It, I'll tell you confiden
tially : women STe generally so evil
that there Is scarcely any difference
between a good woman and a bad one.”
Mr. Goldenwelser apparently does not
explain this extraordinary remark,
which may have been made In a mood
of levity, or perhaps when Tolstoy was
suffering from indigestion.
Flying Speed of Birds.
The crow is the least rapid of a list
of 22 migratory birds, (lying an insig
nificant average of 45 feet a second, or
30 miles an hour. Curlews and jack
snipes can fly 55 and 65 feet a second,
while quails, prairie chickens and ruf
fled grouse can make 75 feet. The
dove can reach a speed of 100 feet a
second, or 68 miles an hour, although
Its usual rate Is less. Redheads, blue
winged teals, green-winged teals, Cana
da geese and different varieties of
brant can fly over 100 feet a second,
ranging in speed from 68 to 98 miles
an hour, hut usuulJy lly at a much
slower gait.
Calling It Square.
She had arrived at a little station in
Vermont on a cold, stormy night and
had hired an old man to drive her to
her friend's farm, up among the hills.
The roads were in bad condition from
the storm and the ride was altogether
an uncomfortable one. “How much do
I owe you?" she asked on arriving at
her destination. "Well, ma’am,” said
the old man, “my reg’lar price is a
dollar, but seein’ as it's seeh a bad
night and the goin’ so terrible, I’ll call
It 75 cents." —Chicago Tribune.
Knew the Anecdote.
A tourist and his wife, after their
return from abroad, were telling the
wonders they hail seen at the Louvre
in Paris. The husband mentioned with
enthusiasm a picture which repre
sented Adam and Eve.and the serpent
in the Garden of Eden, in connection
with the eating of the forbidden fruit.
Toe wife also wuxed enthusiastic and
Interjected ttie remark: "Yes, we
found the picture most interesting, be
cause, you see, we knew the anecdote.”
Wives and Goats Tabooed.
Ancient records of Y'ork county, Me.,
preserved in the courthouse at Alfred,
show that at one time goats and wom
en were not allowed cn the Isles of
Shoals. One fisherman brought his
wife there, at the same time importing
some goats. Lengthy legal battles
were waged concerning the matter,
and finally it was settled that the
goats must go but the wife could stay.
The Fool and Wise Man.
A fool tries to get square with oth
ers, but the wise man spends his time
lti blocking the attempts of others to
get square with him.
The Married Man.
Late hours are apt to tell on a man,
nut If he Is married he doesn’t seem to
rare, just so they refrain from telling
his wife.
