AIR CURRENTS
The Forces That Operate to Make the
Wind Blow
In reference to air currents and the
reasons why the wind blows the as
tronomer royal of England explains
that air consists of gaseous particles
all trying to get away from one an
other and that under certain condi
tions they can be compelled to come
closer together by contraction or forced
to fly further apart Ly expansion A
quart bottle for example holds twenty
two grains of air at the temperature
of 70 degrees If the bottle be cooled
by surrounding it with ice the air in
side conrraets When this occurs more
air rushes in through the bottles neck
The quart of air now weighs more
than twenty two grains If the bot
tle bo heated the air it contains ex
pands its tiny particles fly further
asunder and many of them escape
froir the bottle altogether There is
still a quart of air but It weighs much
less thau the original twenty two
grains
Now consider the earth and the sea
under the influence of varying degrees
of the suns heat Where the heat Is
greatest the air is made lighter and
expands Where the heat is least the
air is uuexpanded and heavy Both
the hot anil the cold air have weight
but the cold being the heavier is
drawn more effectively down to the
ground In doing so it drives the
lighter air up out of its way just as
a lump of lead dropped into a pail of
water forces some of the water up
ward If the earth were equally warm
at every part and continued at a con
stant temperature wind could not ex
ist It blows because of heat and
gravitation In other words air moves
from the place where its weight or
pressure is most toward the place
where its weight or pressure is least
STORIES OF ROSSINI
His Dread of Thirteen and Friday and
a Coincidence
Rossini had scant patience with
amateur composers One such once
accompanied the manuscript of his
latest composition with a Stilton
cheese of which he knew Rossini to
be fond He hoped of course to have
a letter praising his work A letter
came but all it sjiid was Thanks 1
like the cheese very much
When Rossini was rehearsing one of
his operas in a small theater in Italy
he noticed that the horn was out of
tune
Who Is that playing the horn in
such an unholy way he demanded
It is I said a tremulous voice
Ah it is you is it Well go right
home It was his own father
Rossinis whimsicality extended even
to his birthday Having been born on
Feb 29 in leap year he had of course
a birthday only once in four years
and when he was seventy two he face
tiously invited his friends to celebrate
his eighteenth birthday
All his life he had a dread of the
number thirteen as well as of -Fridays
He never would invite more
than twelve to dinner and once when
he had fourteen he made sure of an

UKIG1N OF MARK TWAIN
Samuel L Clemens Quoted as Saying
Hs Inherited the Name
The familiar story of the origin of
Samuel L Clemens use of the name
Mark Twain is now declared to be
incorrect It pictures Clemens Missis
sippi river pilot listening to the men
heaving the lead at the bow of a river
boat and singing out By the mark
three by the mark twain Tableau
Clemens smites his brow and solilo
quizes There is my uom de plume
It is true that the name originated
with the picturesque cry of the man
with the lead but a man other than
Mr Clemens Grst discovered the pic
turesqueness That man was Captain
Isaiah Sellers who furnished river
news for the New Orleans Picayune
To Professor William Lyon Phelps of
Yale Mr Clemens confessed that it
was from Sellers he got the name
Professor Phelps story is quoted in
Professor Hendersons Mark Twain
According to this book Mr Clemens
said to Professor Phelps Captain Sel
lers used to sign his articles in the
Picayune Mark Twain He died in
1803 I liked the name and stole it
I think I have done him no wrong for
I seem to have made this name some
what generally known
Professor Henderson records a num
ber of interesting Incidents connected
with the use of this name For awhile
when he was a miner In Nevada
Mr Clemens sent to the Virginia City
Enterprise humorous letters signed not
Mark Twain but Josh
When he became a regular reporter
on that paper and reported the legisla
ture he signed his reports Mark
Twain When questioned as to his
use of this name Mr Clemens declar
ed I chose my pseudonym because to
most persons it had no meaning and
also because it was short I was a
reporter in the legislature and wished
to save the legislature time It was
much shorter to say in their debates
Mark Twain than to say The un
principled and lying parliamentary re
