ONCE MORE THE TONGUE
(Stratford Beacon -Herald)
Seems only a -few weeks ago since
a young school teacher in British Co-
lumbia took her own life because
lain of'the trustees, by their wiggling
tongues, made life so miserable for
her that she could not stand it any
longer,
Now it is Mrs. Iodd_y of Owen
Sound, a married' woman .of 22, and
the another of two little children. A
neighbor had stated that her husband'
was running around with other wom-
en. The husband and his wife went
to see the woman whose tongue work -
el so readily and found out that there
was nothing 'in the ;story.
Apparently the mischief had been
clone and Mrs. Buddy was not to be
fully persuaded. That is the reason
why she went to .a drug store and
purchased bichloride of mercury, and-
it is also the reason why she swal-
lowed the poison and died from its
effects.
The tongue, according to surface
measurement, is not a very great
rnember of the body, but it is large
enough to plunge others so deep into
abject mental desolation that life is no
longer worth living.

THE WEATHERMAN ,
144 Questions, Asked Whlch Some-
times i to
l�e�►iw T..
roan Ottamot Answer.
What kind 'ot, questions doe. the
public adk: the 'Weeatherauaat
There is "linnet' no end to their
variety,
we are told ld b'y a' writer in
Popular Mechanics M,agazrne. Thele
are, however. e ' i. is questions that
are esicen over .arid over again.. Some
of these relate to the dates and other
partic pars of memorable storms,
cold winters; floods and other out;
standing weather events.`
At least three or'lour. tinier a year
somebody. asks for information about
the "Big Wind in Ireland," it is stat-
ed. This name is applied to a violent
tempest that swept over the, British
Isles,ln January, 1839, causing great
destruction by land and sea. Strange
ter say, though it is almost completely
forgotten in the Old Country, 1 it
frequently heard a3 in America. It
was a recent event 'en the time Irish,
emigration to this country was, at
high tide, following the terrible Pam-
ine of 1845-46, and the memory of it
has been preserved among the de-
scendants of the Irish who came over
at that period.
The public is always much inter-
ested In record-breaking extremes of
weather.' There are many questions
as to the highest and lowest tem-
peratures ever registered, the places
having the, greatest and least rain-
fall, the strongest winds ever observ-
ed, and ao on. Statistics on such
subjects necessarily vary somewha.
from. year to year. Bevel -al places,
for instance, have successively held
the blue ribbon for hot weather. For
many years this distinction was en-
joyed by Wargla; a town In the Al-.
gerian Sahara. Then,. in 1913, Death
Valley, Cal.,: established a new world,'
record, with a reading of 134 ' de-
grees. This held good until 1922,
when it was surpassed by two rfe;•rP';
a. the village of Azfzla, in the Italian
Sahara. The low temperature record
has been hid since 1892 by Verkhoy-
ausk, Siberia, close to the Arctic Cir-
cle, withan official reading of 90 de-
grees below zero,
The : rainiest known place in til
United States Is Glenora, Tillavlur1'
County, Oregon, where the rainfall
averages 1311k inches a year, and
the driest is Death' Valley, where i
averages a little over one and one-
half' inches a year. Whether the
heaviest snowfall occurs in the bigb
Sierra of California or on the upper
slopes of Mount Rainier, Wash., is
an unsettled question.
Chicago's nickname, "the. Windy
City," raises the question whether the
city is actually windier than others.
The answer is that the wind measure-
ments in Chicago show a higher aver -
a .e then in any other large city of
the United States (only slightly Wall-
er than in New York), but are sur-'
passed at many smaller towns on both
the Atlantic and 'Pacific coasts. The
strongest wind ever measured on this
continent was nominuliy 186 miles an
hour, registered on the Summit of Mt,
Washington N:iLI., Jan. 11, 1878,• hut
•er ain necessary corrections reduce
this figure to about 140 miles an
hour. Far stronger winds occur in
tornadoes, but thy have never been
n easureci.
"How.large are the biggest hail -
tones,?" is` a pe.rennlaI question.
Huge masses of ice have sometimes
eeu-found after hailstorms, bu' the3'
were doubtless the result of several,
hailstones f'r'eezing together whip ly-
ing in a heap on the ground. The
reatest possible size of a single hail -
tone cannot be stated with any cer-
ainty. In August, 19. l5, a hailaton ,
weighing four and o .e-lralf pounds
fell through the roof of a house al
Hcidgraben, Schleswig-Holstein.. Tbls
tone was nearly ton inches long.
here have been several bigger hail -
tones, but they were not so well
uthentieated,
"Why," the Weatherman is asked,
'is a hailstone built, np, like an
Mon, of successive Layers?" Hail is
ormed in the violent updra:ught of
it at the front of a thunderstorm.
n this turbulent region the hall -
tone, first frozen at a high .level;
makes several journeys' alternately
cip and down as it enounters stronger
Or weaker rising currents; at one.
time gathering a' coating of snow
loft, and at another a coating of ice:
from rain below, until finally, on ac-
count of its large size or on account
of a weakening of the up2rard blast,
it falls to the ground'.
Two rare . phenomena that the
Weatherman cannot explain to his
ovvn satisfaetione much' less to that of
the layman, are hall lightning and
