The cause of the milage Is now well under
stood so well understood that there ate
ways of making small mirages for cxperl-
j
tl
The simplest explanation that I can Rive
Is i to say that the ia > s of light coming from
the thing that Is seen are bent In going
through layeis of air differently heated
When these rays are so bent as to bo al
most level with a layer of air they do not
enter U , U all , but ( so to apeak ) glance off ,
and are reflected as If from a mirror. Then
Iho air icflccts just as a glass minor or a
body of water would , If It lay between the
ujo and the trees or .ship
This explanation will give you a general
Idea of the cause of the mirage. In the
rmo of the desert the reflecting alr-mlrror
believed by the observer to be water , and
the Imago cluingcs Its place as you go for-
ivard , Just as a reflection would move as
you advanced on a gl.iss mirror. In the
IM.O of the ship , thu ah-minor neor.is to
u above > ou , and reflecta the ship which Is
really out of sight over the horizon. Hut
do not intend to explain all about the dif
ferent Images that may possibly bo formed
jndor different conditions of the atmosphere
--that is a school room task , and a hard ono
The "fata morgana" Is a foim or modifi bo
cation of mirage often seen In the otralln
hat separate the too of the "hoot" of Italy
ind the Island of Sicily , Just opposite When "
ho sun Is just at the right position and sea i
uid air are also ready to help , strange views
objectu upon the opposite coast are seen
'lorn Calabria sometimes magnified , and
ct against a background of colored mists
'Fata morgana" means the "fairy of the
sea , "
It Is said that sometimes , during n hot
'ml still summer day , by placing the ojo
Ioo to the surface of a diy road , a mirage
an bo ecen ; but I have never triad It.
Uefoio these and other strange sights were a
indcrstood ! and explained vvu need not won- aIn

Ono of the developments In bicycling Is
the Increasing popularity of tandems , U
Is said thnt there will be several times ns
many tandonwc sold In 1897 as was the case
In 1896. Women demand tandems , nnd , of
course , men have' ' to use them , too. A
woman docs not care lo ride a tandem with
another woman. She wants a man , to do
his share of the 'work and protect her In
case of danger. So the spectacle of a big
woman and a little man , or \ lcocrea , glid
ing through Central park will bo much more
common than It has been. The manu
facturers nro studying the problem of making
tandem bicycles stronger. It has been found
that any bicycle made for vvomcn'a use Is
likely to be weaker than that made for a
man , It Is feaicd that there will never bo a
thoroughly sallsfartory tandem until It Is
niBde on the principle of wheels for mascu
line use. Aside from this there Is not likely
lo bo any material change In the fltylo of
tandems , lllcjclcs of all kinds will not
change much. There Is talk about the chain
less wheel as something soon to bo used ,
but It Is not evident that much progress
has been made , for every design suggeslcd
so far has some fundamental weakness.
The number of people who can and do
write Interesting letters Is growing smaller
and smaller every year. If the art Is not a
lost ono now , It will probably bo so In n few
> cars' time. The cheaper rates nnd In
creased speed of traveling have as much to
do with the change as the system of postage.
H \s \ far easier now than In the mall-coach
daja for friends even 1C living far apart
to see each other often , and that being so ,
the necessity for long , chatty epistles' ' Is not
so great. Letter writing between friends Is ,
after nil , nothing more thin a substitute
for conversation , though It mu.H bo owned
that "the fashionable noto" Is an exceed
ingly poor substitute. Why have not the
schools a special "correspondence depart
ment" In their exhaustive curriculum ?
The general practice of Trance and Ger
many Is for o woman to go Into journalism
very much as "a lady In reduced clicum-
fitonccs" goes Into millinery. They hire a
printer , or , what Is more common , make n
contract with a printing olllce , engage a
clerk , a piofcsslonal newspiper man , Issue
tnstinotions , wilte whatever they please ,
and then pose upon an editorial throne of
largo , or , generally , small dimensions. Of
news they know llttlo and care for less
Facts ten or fifteen jears old , known to
every school girl In our country , are quoted

object lesson taking eight pages ( the average daily is
sue ) of four newspapers , as a basis :
The Omaha Bee Columns are 21 7-S in. long ; .
World Herald Columns are 21 3-8 in. long1.
Lincoln Journal Columns are 21 1-8 in. long * .
Sioux City Journal Columns are 19 5-8 in. long1.
Each line of The Bee is 13-V ems wide. Each line of
the others only 13 ems wide. This short weight doesn't
seem much , but in each 8-page paper we have this result
f
The Omaha Bee prints 292,010 ems or 697 inches.
World Herald prints 272,016 ems or 622 inches.
Lincoln Journal prints 269,624 ems or 616 inches.
Sioux City Journal prints 250,572 ems or 572 inches.
Don't you see THE BEE gives you 75 inches more
space , or 82 colums , nearly one-half a page more than the JC
World Herald ; 8J inches , nearly 4 columns , more than
the Lincoln Journal ; 125 inches , or about 6 columns , more
than the Sioux City Journal ? In one week this amounts
to more than four pages of the World Herald , and with The
Bee's Saturday supplement , eight pages or a whole paper.
That's equivalent to eight Bees to seven World Heralds
each week , or nine pages more than the Lincoln Journal ,
or eleven and one-half more than the Sioux City Journal
each week.
This is only the quantity of the news we'll have
lessons on quality later.
