WHIRL OF THE WILLY WILLY.
Fearful Fore of ths Miniature Cy
clone of Australia.
Writing In Harper's Magazine, Nor
man Duncan tells of bis first experi
ence with the whirlwinds of the Aus
trallan desert:
"All at once a diminutive whirlwind
took life under our very feet and went
swishing and swirling to the east.
" 'What's that?' cried the artist, as
tounded.
'It might have been a partridge
whirring to new cover.
1 'A little willy willy,' said the bush
man.
"It was a singular phenomenon. Its
force and activity were amazing, and
the noise it made the swish and hum
and crackle of it astonished us no
s. We watched its erratic course.
Its outline was definite. Its path no
man could guess. And it moved swift
ly, only occasionally stopping In Inde
cision to spin like a top. It darted, It
swerved, it circled. Had It returned
upon its tracks and there was no cer
tainty that it would not immediately
do so we should have talten to our
heels! It was so visible and small
that, having short warning, we might
hare leaped aside and escaped. And
a man would earnestly desire to elude
It It had a fearsome violence; it
caught up the twigs; it scattered the
pebbles; It tore at the scrub; It gather
ed a cloud of dust When at last it
vanished, a thick, red mist high in
the air, we laughed heartily at this
comical little six foot cyclone, as we
were disposed to regard it
"Traveling subsequently Jn the midst
of a host of these small winds, we bad
no laughter left.
"Precisely speaking, the willy willies
are those destructive cyclones wnicn
originate Jn the ocean to the north ot
the continent and, blowing to the
southwest fall heavily on the north
erly Western Australian coast from
December to March. Off Ninety Mile
beach, near Broome, the pearl 'fishers ;
call them Cockeyed Bobs. Five years
ago two visitations of the willy willies
sent sixty luggers to the bottom and
accounted for the disappearance of
300 men and more. It Is now the cus
tom of the pearlers to He discreetly in
harbor during the willy willy season,
If, however, the great willy willy, in
stead of following the coast line in a
southerly direction, deviates to the
east, as sometimes happens. It crosses
the continent to the great Australian
bight on the south coast and its
course Is marked by torrential rains,
A fall of ns much as twenty-nine and
one-balf inches has been recorded. All
the dry lands where, too, we trav.
eled are In this way sometimes re
freshed." '
8h Made Her Point.
"Dearie," said the young married
man, "I have to go to New York on
business. It will only take a day or so,
and I hope you won't miss me too
much while I'm gone, but"
"I won't" answered his young wife
positively, "because I'm going with
you."
"I wish you could, dear, but it won't
be convenient this time. What would
you want to go for anyhow? I'm go-
Ing to be too busy' to be with you,
and"
"I have to go I need clothes."
"But darliug, you can get all the
clothes you want right here on Euclid
avenue."
"Thank you. That's all I wanted."
Cleveland Tlaln Dealer.
Anecdote With a Moral.
"I used to know twin brothers. They
looked exactly alike In their youth, but
one of them got rich, while the other
remained poor. One developed a dis
contented expression; the other always
looked happy."
"Well, you can't blame the Door
brother for looking discontented."
"You have it twisted. It's the rich
brother who looks dlsconteited."

If you are suffering from EYE

proficient to correct it. I use
modern methods and modern
instruments in determining and
correcting EYESTRAIN.
Besides I do my own work
right here, which eliminates
the possibility of having inex

A young Hindoo tells an amusing
Itory of bis first visit to Loudon. His
hostess, mindful 04. the great change
In climate to which the traveler had
been subjected, wished to make him
as comfortuble as possible. Accord
ingly, when she prepared his room for
the night, she put into his bed a rub
ber hot water bottle, a contrivance
quite unknown in India.
The youug iniin retired, undressed
and got into bed. As he did so his
feet encountered a smooth, warm ob
ject which he supposed to be some
kind of animal. In terror he leaped
from the 'bed nud groped about for
the light. Unaccustomed to his sur
roundings, he was a long time in find
ing It, and at every step he trembled
lest the unknown creuture should at
tack bini.
At length he found the light and
looked about vainly for a weapon. He
was on the point of calling for help
when he thought of trying the closet
There he found several nines. He se
lected the stoutest of them and re
solved to try conclusions with the in
truder.
He approached the foot of the bed,
where he was somewhat protected by
the footboard, and raised bis weapon
for a speedy blow, while with his left
hand he grasped the bedclothes and
began cautiously to turn them down.
Then, nerving himself for a final ef
fort, he tore the clothes from the bed
and struck viciously at the round black
object that he had exposed.
One blow was enough to convince
him that the "animal" was lifeless and
always had been. Ills terror gave
place to amusement and after he had
bis laugh out he went back to bed and
enjoyed undisturbed repose until morn

A country centleman recently had
his house fitted with electric bells, and,
giving Instructions to his servant, he
said, "Now, I want you to understand
me clearly, Joseph, that when 1 ring
once I want you. and when 1 ring
twice I want Maggie, the housemaid."
The bell rang. Joseph never moved.
Presently It rang again, and Maggie
hurried to her master, who was very
angry. "Why didu't that rascal Jo
seph come when I rang for him?" de
manded the gentleman. "Why, sir,"
answered Maggie, "Joseph was busy
