Cause of Twilight.
Twilight Is a phenomenon cansed by
atmospheric refraction.. When the sun
gets below the horizon we are not Im
mediately plunged into the darkness of
night. Although the sun Is below our
horizon, rays of solar light are bent or
refracted by the terrestrial atmosphere
and continue to furnish some slight
Illumination. The process continues
with diminishing intensity until the
Fun Is so far below the horizon that
the refracting power of the atmos
phere is no longer able to bend the
rays enough to produce a visible ef
fect The time after sunset that the
sun reaches such a position varies with
the latitude of the place. There is less
twilight at the tropic cone than at the
temperate or frigid zone. This Is due
to less time taken by the sun's rays to
pass through the atmosphere, at the
tropic zone the sun's rays being per
pendicular and at the temperate and
frigid zunes oblique. New York Amer
ican. With a Grain of Salt.
The earliest record of the saying
"with a grain of salt" dntes back to the
year (13 B. C when the great Pompey
entered the palace of Mithrldates and
discovered among bis private papers
the description of an antidote against
poisons of all sorts, which was com
posed of pounded herbs. These, ac
cording to the recipe, were to be taken
with a grain of salt. Whether this
was meitnt seriously or as a warning
sarcasm Is not known.' but thenceforth
It became the custom to say that
doubtful preparations should be taken
with a grain of salt. From this the
meaning got transferred to sayings of
doubtful truth. "Attic salt" was a
Greek synonym for wit or penetration,
nnd the Latin- word "sal" bnd some
what of the same meaning. It Is thus
easy to see how the Raying "cum
grano sails" could have come to mean
the necessity of accepting doubtful or
suspicious statements "with a gralu of
salt"
Motokai and the Lapert.
The general idea of the leper settle

wrong, says a writer In Harpers
Weekly. Instead of the entire Island
being ustd for the leper colony the set
tlement comprises only eight square
miles out of a total area of 2G1 square
miles.' It occupies a tongue of laud on
the northern side of MolokaL The
north, east and west shores of this
tiny spit are washed by the Pacific,
while on the south side rise precipitous
cliffs of from 1.800 to 4.000 feet, which
make the isolation seem even more
hopeless than the beautiful deep blue
waters of the sea ever could. The
most difficult and dangerous trail, con
stantly manned by government guards,

plated, by the land side.
London's Big Bon.
Why is the lurge bell iu the tower
of the bouse of parliament in Loudon
called Big Ben? The average London
er himself seems to have uo Idea bow
it" got its name. When the building
was designed Sir Benjamin Hull had a
great deal lo do with carrying out the
plans ofthe architects, being high
commissioner of public works, and his
coworkers appreciated the fact that to
him the city of Loudon was largely in
debted. So when the question came
up In parliament as to the name of the
enormous bell that was to be bung lu
the tower a member shouted. "Why
not call It Big Ben?" This suggestion
was received with much applause as
well as with roars of laughter, for Sir
Benjamiu was an euormous man, both
In height und girth, and had often been
called Big Bcd. From that day on
the bell whose eal every Ixudoner
knows bus been knowu only as Big
