An Interesting Geological Experiment.


One of the most remarkable experiments
ever made in the way Of geological research
is now being carried out at Schladilach.
near Halle, in Germany It is gigantic well
or bore that has already reached depth Of
1,7i6 meters, or l,SSS yards, and furnishes
among other points of interest much valu-
able material as regards the temperature Of
the interior Of our earth. Regarding the
depth of the boring, some idea may he
formed from the fact that sixteen spires,
each as high as that of the Madgeburg cathe-
dral tlOi meters, may be piled one ON top Of
the other aud still leave fifty-two meters be-
tween the point of the topmost vane and the
surface Tho highest mountain in the Han IL

THE CLOSED DOOR.

Her hands were clasped, her eyes were raised tc

No tremor even stirred the shadow tail
Cast by the moon, upon the close cropped grass:
BY which knew no answering heart beat shook
Her scul whose shadow stretched between us
there.
But When spoke uphraiding, passionate words,
And wogld have urged my spoilt. unhappy life.
"Fareweil," She said Love stands aside to bless;
Love that would wrong would only prove curse -

Just us despair for light had filled the heart,
A door should open, and within should shine
