Concerning such tornadoes as occurred at St. "Louis in May, H. H. C.
Dunwoody, TJ. S, A., in the Cosmopolitan says such storms occur more frequently in the United States east of the
100th meridian. They occur most frequently in the late spring and early
summer, but some of the most dest ruc-
tive have occurred in midwinter. They
may occur in any month Of the year
and in any state east of the Rocky moan-
tain slope. The region of greatest frequency is that of tfie lower Missouri
Valley, and the month of greatest frequency is June or between th^ loth of
May and lq of June. The hour of oc-
'curreqee is usually late in the afternoon and seldom at night.—Ex.

"Is there any particular nervons complaint connected with your prof ession?"
asked the cheerful idiot of the rifleman.
"There is the tennis arm, the bicycle
face and the baseball arm, and I thought
there might be something of the sort
among you gunners."
"No," 1 the rifleman; "nothing of
the sort."
"It is very queer," said the cheerful
idiot thoughtfully. "I didn't suppose
you could Mt the target without taking
