Geologists have collected in Barba
does and other islands in that regior
some curious information, which they
publish as evidence that during the
pliocene period, when man Is sup
posed to have made his advent, the
whole Of the Caribbean region was
deeply submerged. They found plen.
ty Of earths not only in Barbadoes,
but also in Jamaica and Cuba, which
contain great quantities Of the re-
mains Of radiolaria. At present no
radiolarian ooze is found on the floor
Of the Caribbean sea, although the
greater part Of the sea Is more than
1000 feet deep.
These earths must OF course have
been deposited in the depths Of the
sea, and it Is inferred that in the
course Of time they were raised thou.
sands OF feet until they became a
part of the land surface Mr.. Jukes-
Browne and Professor Harrison think
that the oceanic deposits of Barba-
does were formed ut depth OF i2, 600
to 1000 feet below the sea level.
Professor Sollas says that IL can no
longer be accepted as an assured fact
that deep sea deposits never enter
into the composition Of land masses.

Early Exercise FOR Growing Boys,

Ihave noticed tendency to per
NIT children to sit up much later than
Ia good for them, the natural result
being too prevalent fondness for
the bed in the morning. II boy
wants to keep himself in prime con.
dition, to grow up strong and vigor.
Gus, let him get up in the morning
long enough before breakfast to have
first 10 minutes Of brisk work with q
pair of light wooden dumbbells, then
his cold bath, and afterward sharp
walk Of 10 minutes. Any boy who
will follow this plan will discover be-
fore many weeks that he is easily
superior to his classmates in almost
any athletic work he undertakes,
while headaches and other ills too
common to growing lads will be un.
known to him. -Harper's Bazaar.
