Mr.. G.. H. Darwin has taken pains
to estimate the stresses caused in the in
terror Of the earth by the weight Of con-
tinents and mountains, and he concludes
that either the materials of the earth
have about the strength of granite at
/ 900 miles from the surface, or that
they have much greater strength nearer
to the surface. He confirms Sir William
Thomson's theory that the earth must
be solid nearly throughout its whole
mass, and he attributes the lava of vol
canoes to the melting of solid rock which
exists in high temperatures at points
where the pressure is diminished, or to
the existence of comparatively small va
rieties of molten rock.
