Phone 258. Disposing of Turkeys. Flortda, Dec. 10.--A number ~ from this neighborhood attended the bazaar and concert in the Methodist hell, Wilton, on Friday evening, and report a fairly good time. Clinton Martin and Roses Martin, Watertown, N.Y. spent the week- end with thelr parents. Mr. and Mrs. Walter Compton spent a day recent ly at Enoch Snider's, Thorpe. Mr. and Mrs. Fax Martin and children were regent vigitors at John Peters'. Mr. and Mrs. Sperry Redden, Wilton, at Mrs. M. Redden's. Mrs. Stanley, Westbrooke, and children, Kingston, visited at Hanlan Car- rolls. Mr. and Mrs. Stuart Snider and family were recent visitors at Byard Sniders. Miss Lyla Snider hus returnéd home after spending a few months in Hamilton. » A number of people are disposing of their poultry for the Christmas market, To Come To Queen's. Miss Mitchell, principal of the Newburgh public school, has tend- ered her resignation, to take effect at Christmas. Miss Mitchell will be a student at'Queen's during next year, e has been a faithful tea cher for a number of years. See Tweddell's $25.00 overcoats.

The Odessa laddies will | have to be more careful hereafter. Kingston juries may be regarded | as lenient but they have nothing om | Napanee juries. There are a num- | ber of Kingstontans and Frontenac | residents barred from juries here, | and the word comes from Napanee | that there will be a larger blacklist up there after this week. Well, the oldtime concert has not yet passed away with the advent of bobbed haired ladies. Portsmouth staged a real old-fashioned affair the other night. All that was missing was a dialogue. It would be a good thing if people who find that some relative is insane after he has committed some crime would find this out before and save a lot of trouble. A government' official declares that spanking is a valuable crime deterrent, It may serve in the case of children, but it is absolutely use- Jess in the case of full grown peo- ple. A diseased mind is not to be cured with a whip any more than a diseased lung. In Lanark county they appreciate their warden. It is recorded that the chief magistrate of that county was last week presented with a club bag. Who ever heard of a Fronte- nac warden or a Kingston mayor peing given a club bag? The unemployed of Kingston are not asking doles, but work, There is ground for criticism of the smallness of some elvic grants. For instance the Victorian Order of Nurses has had to make a special canvass of the city in order to raise enough money to. continue its win- ter's wor't; but of course generous people come to its aid.» Kingston always rises to the occasion in re- gard to helping great objects--even if it cannot boast of a modern hotel. The action of the General Hos- pital Nurse Alumnae Association in refusing to buy goods for the hospi- tal outside Kingston is praiseworthy. When the people of this city donate money to public institutions, every dollar possible should be spent right here. No dear friends, the visit this week Of the moderator of the Pres- byterian General Assembly is not the last one Kingston is likely to have from one filling that honored post. The Presbyterian church is to be continued--for some years at Jeast--and the remnant will elect a moderator each year; so Kingston may expect further visits from His Reverence. People of good taste do not spell Christmas "Xmas." Neither do they say "gents" for gentlemen, "A good editorial is worth a pray- er meeting," a leading Ontario clergyman declares. Is it any won- der the people are so keen on read- ing newspapers on Sunday? WHY THE WEATHER ? DR. CHARLES F. BROOKS Secretary, American Meteorglogiocal} lety, Tells How. The A Tide, To the ocean tide of a few feet, and to the land tide of about ome foot, one must add the atmospheric tide, to complete the list of the dl- rect effects of the moon on the hy- drosphere, the lithosphere, and the atmosphere, Ag the moon rises In the sky it pulls the atmosphere very slightly to its side of the earth. This effect is enough, when the moon is highest, to increase the pressure at London, for instance, by the equiva- lent of 0.01 millimeters (0.0004) or about 1-75,000th of the average total pressure of the atmosphere. That is, the gravity of the moon off- sets by this emall fraction the earth's attyaction of the portion of the atmosphere nearly hinder the moon.

Try this! When combing and dressing your hair, just moisten your hair-brush with a little "Dan« derine" and brush it through your hair. The effect is startling! You can do your hair up immediately and it will appear twice as thick and heavy --a mass of gleamy hair, sparkling with life and possessing that incom- parable softness, freshness and luxur- iance. While beautifying the hair "Dan- derine" is also toning and stimulat- ing each single hair to grow thick, long and strong. Hair stops falling out and dandruff disappears. Get a bottle of "Danderine'" at any drug or toilet counter and just see how healthy and youthful your hair ap- pears after this delightful, refreshing dressing. pressure is equally very slightly in- creased because the moon is pulling on the solid earth a little more than on that part the atmosphere which {s farther away. Thus, as the earth rotates, there are two high and two low atmospheric tides in the lunar day, just as, and for much the same reason that, there are two oceanic high tides and two low tides. This minute variation of pressure was found only by tabulating the hourly pressures with respect to the position of the moon over a period of several decades, The daily heat- ing of the atmosphere produces a pressure oscillation equivalent to the weight of several hundredths of an inch of mercury, while our ordin- ary storms bring us barometric changes of half an inch to am inch. Thus the lunar tide in the atmo- sphere has.but .1-100th or 1-1,000th or; less of the amplitude of the changes accompanying our usual weather oscillations, It is not difi- cult to Appreéiate, therefore, that the direct gravitational effect of the moon' on the earth's atmosphere must be insignificant as a factor in weather, NEW CANADIAN PACIFIC.
