THE COLD ABOVE US.
Tho lowest temperatures yet observ-
ed In the air over Europe were record -
ea last year by instruments sent up from
Vienna in "sounding balloons." On
March 2nd, an elevation of 31,872 feet,
the temperature was -85.4 deg. Centi-
grade, which is 122 deg. below zero,
Fahrenheit, and on April 4th, at an ele-
vation of 32,833 feet, it was -76.6 deg.
Centigrade. Observations of this kind
have shown that tate annual temperature
iu the higher regions of the atmosphere
lags behind that rd the surface of the
earth, so that the coldest period in the
upper air corresponds with the opening
of spring, while the period of greatest
treat falls in October. This gives to the
higher reginns a regulating influence
upon the surface temperature. The sud-
den changes in spring are accounted for
by the fact that then the upper air is cold
and heavy when the lower air has al-
ready become warm and light. In au-
tumn the situation is reversed, the cold
teeing below and the warmth above, thus
producing a more stable state of the at-
mosphere.

Poultry raising pays.
People who tell you that them is no
money in raising chicks may have tried
to make money in the business by using
setting hens as hatchers, and they
might as well have tried to locate a
gold mine in the cabbage patch. The
business of a hen k -to lay eggs. As
a hatcher and brooder she is out-
classed. That's the business of the
Chatham Incubator and Brooder, and
they do it perfectly and successfully.
The poultry business, properly con-
ducted, pays far better than any other
business for the amount of fuse and
money invested.
Thousands of poultry -raisers -men

Even a half a century ago the Parisian
found the Palais ltoyttl an excellent
spot in which to disport himself, and
to lose a great quantity of cash, as
gambling dens abounded. Since then
tenons have heen the projects to re-
suscitate the Palace, to bring back (ho
life and laughter of other days to its new
silent colonnades. The most atta•ctivo
or the schemes was to turn the great
building into an encampment of spotl-
it headquarters for all the athletic so-
cieties of France. Apparently the idea
has not borne fruit any more. than
the suggestion to establish an American
exhibition, where all that pertained to.
the prodycts of the New World would
be on show to the Parisian.
There was something a little shocking
in turning a public monument .10 pure
commercial uses, even though we were
promised an American hotel run on
strictest American principles -a living
example of bow it should be done in
public catering. Perhaps this is why
this attempt at regeneration appears to
have had no more success than the
other. No; the Palais Royal is left alone
in its glory, to its meineries, to its hies -
seers. The footfall of the rare tourist,
or of the Parisian making a "short cut,"
is the only music of the outer world
that reverberates through lL-tiljetorlc
galleries, True, there are thb shops,
wtiose merchandise has sonnetinies signs
cf degeneration in it, ton; true, there ,s
the Colonial office, that has something
very hopeful In it, es the symbol of an
advancing empire; but these are the soli -
tory swallows that do not make a sum-
mer of prosperity.
T1IE FATE OF VEFOUR,
which, as the Cafe de Chartres, gave
e r l and refreshment to the great of the
earth, is not only symbolical of the ruin
1 the Palace, but of the greet restaur-
ant. People are less gastronomical than
of yore, or they dine in clubs rather
than In the resturant. The history of
the great eating houses of Paris is a
history of change and decay. Regard
'1 oriont's, completely gone; the Mnison
d'Or, converted into a "brasserie;
flaunting its striped awning in the face
of its aristocratic vis-a-vis; the Cafe An-
glais, one of the few survivals of 'hd
ernve old times. Again the Cafe d'Or -
say is a changed creature, inside and
out.
Nor does the spirit of demolition or
innovation stay here. Take the cabar-
et-% - the queer scandalous cabarets,
where they sting and danced and emits -
tel the grand dukes and their bourge-
tile Imitators by all manner of eceentri-
citiree. They are doorned end all disap-
pearing one by nne. Today it is the
e,ld "Pere Lunette," the resort of siege
brigands and artists. Apaches, whip lm".
Is under sentence of death; to -morrow
they whisper that the list for the hum
I,rils will Include the "Angel Gabriel,"
A very unlovely end unangelic angel,
1-nt a picturesque personality, whose
rcquaintance is not wilhont peril for
the unguided visitors. The truth is,
high dining and high rioting march to-
g,Iher, When one go^s the other re-
ceives notice to quit. Public morality
13 the better, no doubt, still.—.
LION ATT.\):KS A GIRL TAMER.
