Weather Keporta by MHm Wlil.tlea.
The anxiety of the farmers In
Pennsylvania to obtain the prognos
tications of the htate Weather Ser
vice Is strikingly Illustrated by the
methods adopted at Cochransville, a
small place twelve or fifteen miles
from Parkersburg, on the main line
of the Pennsylvania Railroad. There
is no direct communlcat:on between
the State Weather Ilureau In this
city and Cochransville, but the agri
culturalists of that place did not al
low this to stand in the way of their
determination to get the news about
th( nro-tncctlve. state of the weather.
They procurred loud-mouthed steam-
whistle, and by moans of that noisy,
but useful, nstrumnnt. assisted bv
telephone, they succeeded in keeping
themselves posted on the predicted
changes In the meteorological condi
tions. Mr. H. P. Hall, who has
charge of the State weather office in
the Postofflce building, telegraphs
the news at stated intervals during
the dav to Parkersburg, together
with other nlaces throughout this
section of the state, and from Park
crsburg it is promptly telephoned to
Cochransville. Then the steam
whistle comes into plav, and the
weather probabilities are tooted off
in accordance with a prescribed sig
nal code, and heard and noted by all
farmers within a radius of ten miles
all around. The people of that lo
cality swear by the weather service,
and they think the steam whistle
and telephone combination a great
institution.
The French Girl'" Hero.
A French girl feels that there is
just one companion as delightful as
her mother, just one Iriend in the
world as trusty, just one confidant as
sympathetic, and that is -her father,
writes Henrietta C. Dana in an at
tractive paper on "The Freneh Girl
and Her Father" in the Ladies'
Home Journal. He is her hero and
the knight of her dreams. Often
and often have I seen the girls at
school hiding their father's photo
graph in the leaves of their scnoot
books, kissing it enthusiastically on
the sly, pressing it to their hearts
when they go to chapel to say their
prayers, sewing his lastletter in their
dresses, treasuring some little keep
sake in their pockets. And when
they meet one can sec how the father
returns hisdaughtcr's feeling by his
tender clasp of her pure young hand,
and the adoring affection with which
he looks down into her eyes. He al
lows nothing to keep him back from
her as she conies from
..ki nd crivinir her his arm for
every French gentleman extends

The United States Government, after elaborate

The Canadian Official Tests, recently made, show
the Royal Baking Powder highest of all in leaven

In practical use, therefore, the Royal Baking
