going across the pa k the basket bound ed upon the ground three times, nearly throwing me out. I saw what the trouble wus. and after throwing out the surplus ballast, shot up 5250 feet in a
jiffy. The wind bore me in 4 south- easterly direction, and over Waterbury

It was fun to ree the people run for them. I was voing then at a rapid rate, and from the sh adow of the balloon I could see,much | faster than the clonds. The clouds I passed through in descending was at least a half mile thick. Afterwards the temperature was warmer. MY HEART WENT UP IN MY MOUTH
That is what I woulden’t go
at
miles
when I saw the water. scronauts fear worst, up in New Heaven for a thousand | dollards, nor at Coney Island, where | they wanted me to go this summer, for half a million. Bal'oons in descend- ing, Lnotice, frighten the crows and poultry terrible. When I was near enough to earth yesterday, never heard such a racket in my life, going over farmhouses. When you are far up and above the clouds the sensation is some-| thing I cannot describe. The awful silence is terrible. You can hear the watch tick in your pocket, and the snapping of a straw bat will make you start. I dont wear a straw hat for that reason. The rusbirg of blood through your whole body is an experience you wouldn’t care to have lust. There is no sensation of moving aleong,when perhaps you are going at the rate of amilea mipu'e, and everything is as still as death. When you have company you don’t notice it as much, but yesterday 1} was alone, and you can bet, my boy, the solitude was something dresd‘ul. ‘1 came down inaciump of cecar trees andthe Janding was perfect. Making ihe baleon fast, there soon arrived some | kind turmers, who assisted me in tak-| ing the baloon to au open space, where I let out the gas.’

Make a thin syrup with ten ounces of sugar and hajf a piut of water. Then take ten or twelve ripe peaches, pare them, ent them in halves and take out the stones, bruising the kernals ot half of them, Now put the halved peaches, together with the bruised kernals, into the syrup and allow them to simmer for fifteen minutes, adding for flavor, the zest of two lemons and the juice of three. Then strain the jelly through a jelly-bag, add ten ounces of dissolved gelatine, and pour it into a mold,which should be placed on the ice until the jelly becomes stiff encugh to turn out. The peaches themselves may be utilized a8 a Compote.
