The Why ef the Rainbow. A French woman of noble family, who had been unfortunate in her marriage, one day said to a party of friends who were dining at her house: “ I should like to be married in English, in a language in which vows are so faithfully kept.” “ What language, I wonder, was •he married in before?” one guest remarked. “ Broken English, I suppose,” re plied the other. — Kansas City Times. The rainbow is produced by the reflection o f sunbeams on falling raindrops. We must look toward the raindrops in order to see the re flected rainbow, and not toward the sun, which must be behind ns. In the afternoon, when summer thun derstorms occur, the sun is west o f us; therefore we turn our backs to the sun and see the rainbow eaat of us. We can see a rainbow in the west when thunderstorms occur in the morning— that is, in the west while the sun is in the east— S t Nicholas. 7e C. B.
