Cleveland (Ohio) Herald. “I was very much interested this after noon watching the tall iron masts on the public square,” observed Col. Wattles, as he closed the door on the warm side last even ing. “You know how heat expands and cold contracts? Well, it was rather cold to-day, and I observed while passing through the square that the electric light mast and the steel flag-stafi had both shrunk until they were several feet shorter than usual. This was an interesting phenomenon; but what followed was still more interesting. While 1 was still watching the sun suddenly emerged from behind a heavy cloud, and when the heat struck the masts they lengthened out with a suddenness that was startling, I as sure you. Directly another cloud obscured the sun and the masts squatted down again immediately. So they kept bobbing up and down until sunset, when they settled down for the night. This is a cold night’” At the Boarding House. New York Graphic. “Are you superstitious, Mr. Badger?” asked Miss De Silva. “Not in the least,” replied that gentle man. “Would you prefer a dinner party of six to one of thirteen?” “Yes, decidedly.” “Ab!
