One naturally thinks of the earth's crust as being exceedingly solid and stable, except perbaps in volcanic re- gions where earthquakes are of fre- quent occurrence. As a matter of fact. however, the shell of our planet is extremely sensitive and most deli- cately balanced, so that under the in- fluences of causes that seem altogeth- er insignificant in comparison with the amazing mannper. To an eye so placed as to be capa- ble of taking in at one comprehensive glance the whole round outline of the globe it. would not appear of precisely the same shape during an entire day or even an hour. Most of the changes l| | referred to are, of course, very slight when compared with the size of the earth itself. The operation of atmospheric and oceanic and other similar causes is continually bringing about changes in the shape of the earth’s crust. One of the most interesting of the agencies whereby such alterations are effected is the carrying power of rivers. Wher- ever a great quantity of sand and ‘grnvel is being brought down from the ! interior of a continent and poured into the sea, as, for instance, along the northwestern coast of Europe or the gulf coast of the United States, the weight of the earth’s crust is slowly llncrenfl.ng. and the consequence is ,Seen in the gradual subsidence of the i shore. Such a sinking has been going on i for thousands of years along the North sea coast and on the continental side iof the British channel. A similar de- pression is occurring on the eastern edge of our own country and along the gulf of Mexico. It has been esti- mated that the gulf coast is sinking at the rate of nearly two feet in a century. Corresponding elevations must, of course, occur elsewhere. And to these slow changes in the level of the earth’s crust earthquakes are due as well as to the more violent local disturbances created by volcanic action.—Harper’'s Weekly. i ! | 1 | SOAP BUBBLES.

J. Randall in his book, “Sinai In Spring:" “If asked ‘How do you ride a camel?™ I reply invent as many attitudes as you can and employ them all in turn; adjust and readjust the rugs and cush- ‘jons on which you sit; ride straight: ride crooked; ride with stirrups made | of rope; ride without them; hitch first | your right knee round the front pom- | mel, then your left knee; stretch your self wide legged over the saddlebags :regardless of the firearms, dates. | crockery. etc., which they contain un- til nature commands you to make a less obtuse angle; ride side saddle, if ;yon can persuade your Bedouin that it iis possible to do so without prejudice |to the camel.

None of It Goes Astray Because the People Are All Very Honest. Certain strangers within our gates have been wondering at our dealing with passengers’ luggage—how much ibetter the system of other countries, | where you get a receipt and when the bag goes astray the official assures You it is impossible because there is the receipt. So you go to bed and get up and dress in your bit of paper. Our method is insular and on the face of it chaotic. We throw our lug- gage to the mercy of some unknown | porter. At the end of the journey we find a sort of lucky tub of portable property piled on the platform, and we plunge about and pick out what we want. You know the scene—a hundred people who have only to say “That’s mine” to a strange porter in order to get it. Thus badly stated the system looks. like chaos and the invitation to a {general scramble for other men's goeds. In practice it works out well, for every one. from porter to passen- ger. is on his honor, and—this is the | point—luggage in England is safer than in any other civilized country.— | Westminster Gazette. The Steamboat. Fulton himself said one day: “Nei- ther M. Desblancs nor I ‘ted the steamboat. 1f that glory ngs to any one it is to the author or the ex- periments at Lyons—of the experi- ments made in 1783 on the Saone.” The one Fulton had in mind and to whom he thus generously rendered the “glory” was the Marquis de Jouffray. born in 1751, fourteen years before the year of Fulton's birth. Jouffray's claim to be regarded as the inventor- of the steamboat stands thus: His ves- sel, built in 1783, notwithstanding its faulty construction, embodied all the elements essential to success. In it he anticipated Watts" invention of a | steam engine having a constant and unremitting action. Lack of funds was the only thing that stood in the way of his gettng all the honors that came later to Robert Fulton.—New York American. Didn’t Want to Impose.
