Overpowering silence that awes the soul reigns and indescribable cold prevails. Floating at this tremendous height literally between heaven and earth, with nothing to attract the senses, a man's inner feeling soul and mind have full play. The balloon enters a high stratum of clouds which from earth look as attractive as little white sheep in he azure blue. Hut we find them to be thin, gray, formless veils of countless floating little Ice crystals reflecting the dazzling rays of the sun like millions of diamonds. These ice crystals take all the warmth from the sun rays. The thermometer registers 60 below. The voice sounds peculiar. There is no disposition to talk. I speak to my companion and get the reply, "silence." Soon an In describable, overpowering longing for mother earth and her warmth and beauties and the music of the noises of life come over one. Dr. Wigand said that the greatest danger in such ascents and descentr was the rapidly changing atmospheric pressure, which affected the heart, lungs and ears. These changes are so rapid and so tremendous that few people can stand them. While American housewives are unions and battorming tling to keep eggs somewhere below a dollar a dozen, Lierlin, said to be the biggest egg consumer of any city in the world, has solved the problem of egg prices by means of an "egg bourse." Berlin eats a little more than 1,500,000,000 eggs a year, or an average of about 1 eggs a day for each man, woman and child. Berliners pay between $11,000,000 and $12,000,-00a year for eggs. Despite the fact that Germany imported 685,715,340 eggs last year because it does not produce enough for its own consumption, the price in Berlin averaged between 20 and 27 cents a dozen. The greater part of the imported eggs come from Russia, which is the largest egg-prducing country In the world. It exports annually about 4,000,000,000 ggs.

The shed, when raised, will turn on a pivot in any direction, so that an airship w ill always be able to leave and enter it with the wind. There are already sheds for seaplanes upon the lower levels of the island, which have been freshly banked up. These sheds are to be enlarged.

Having distinguished himself in an unusual degree during a gathering of clergy at an afternoon tea a shorj while ago in the bishop's palace, he was taken to task for his failings by a- senior curate, who was one of his companions on the way home. "Look here," said Simms, the senior, decidedly, "you aro a donkey. Why can't you keep quiet instead of making your asinine remarks? I am speaking to you now as a brother."
