The three chief types o f clouda
are the cirrua, atratua and cumulus,
and the beet timea to study them
are at annaat and sunrjse. Cumulua
clouda are the moat impressive of
all clouda and are more commonly
to be aeen in aummer than winter.
Theee clouda pile themselves up
in masses near tne horizon. When
they are only o f a moderate aiae
and gradually melt away during the
evening they indicate a spell of
üne weather. But if, on the con­
trary, the clouda continue to pile
themaelvee np like huge anowy
mountain», then look for rain.
The atratua cloud ia generally
formed at' the end o f a fine day. It
ia like a widely extended horizontal
aheet and hanging so low that it
frequently touches the earth’s aur-
face in the form o f i fog. When
auch clouda are formed in the morn­
ing it tella the aky experta to look
out for another fine aay. Stratus
clouda, indeed, aeldom indicate rain.
Cirrus clouda, as their name indi­
cates, are white curly clouda, like
curly hair or curly feathers. They
are the higheat o f all clouda, float­
ing five to ten milea above the earth
and often drifting in quite a con­
trary direction to clouda lower
down. Cirrua clouda are called by
aailora cats’ taila or mares’ taila and
generally foretell rain.
When cirrua clouda lie in long,
straight wisps from west to east,
then be sure that rain is coming.
When they float at a lower level
than usual they become what is
known as cirro-cumulus, small,
round masses arranged in groups or
lines, giving the appearance known
as mackerel sky.

Not twenty-four houra dry
is one o f the oldest and truest o f
weather proverbs.
The nimbus cloud ia a mixture o f
all three o f the chief types o f clouds.
It ia a dark ahapeleas cloud, with
ragged edges as a rule and floats
about a mile high. From its sur­
face it throws off cirrus clouds,
known to sailors as scud, and the
amount o f rain that falls varies gen­
erally with the amount o f scud.
The more rapidly nimbus clouds
form the sooner will the rain be
over, as a rule. When a dark nim­
bus cloud is topped by heavy masses
o f clouda like huge mountains, then
look out for thunder.— New York
Press.
Strength of
The wonderful power o f bone
- structure has been tested scien­
tifically to show how hollow bone
bears strain. A very small bone,
only one square millimeter (.0155
square inch) in diameter, will hold
thirty-three pounds in suspension
without breaking, while a piece of
the best oak of the same thickness
will hold up only twenty-two
pounds. The bone is therefore half
again as strong as' the solid oak.
Nature is economical in the weight
given to bones, making them hollow
and at the same time making them
stronger than if they were solid and
mnch heavier. This principle has
been recognized in mechanics, as
engineers use hollow steel tubes in­
stead o f solid to meet great strain.

A weird looking creature is that
known to scientists as the mys­
terious tone lizard of Cuernavaca,
Mexico. This' reptile, carved on a
’ huge bowlder lying on an overgrown
hillside, is situated about eight
miles from Cuernavaca and seventy
miles southwest o f the City o f Mex­
ico.
It was there, centuries old,
when Cortes first saw Cuernavaca
and is supposed to have been carved
to commemorate some events in the
wanderings o f the prehistoric civi­
lized race which built the great pal­
ace at Xochicalco, a few miles away.

One square yard of the earth’s
surface receives each day averaging
six hours o f sunshine, an amount of

pounds, o f coal. At this rate an
area of about 1,200 miles receive*
during a year an amount o f en
from the sun equivalent to that o
