WHEN THE EARTH IS DEAD.
The Ultimate Extinction of All Life and
How IL VIII Come About.

How It viii Come About.
The probability that life will become
extinct OH earth in the remote future ap
peals to be fascinating theme of study
with many speculative scientists. Recent
" a remarkable little volume was pub
lished in London. In that book its writer,
I. Mullet Ellis, drew forcible picture of
the condition of the earth when its atmos-
phere and life shall pass away andpthe
bare ruin of this world shall go circling
through the heavens as barren, as lifeless
and as airless as the moon is today
More recently writer has been endeav-
oring to estimate the time when life shall
cease ON earth. Solar physicists and as
tronomers arc in tolcrable agreements in
fixing the period when the sun will begin
to finally set at from %, 000, 900 to 30, 000,
300 years hence. But earthly vitality is
likely to have a still more limited exist
ence, and science, we are told by the writ
er in question, can even proSnosticate
the causes of its decay. When the spots
that now f1eck the equatorial zone of the
sun have become sufficiently large to cause
serious interference of light and heat,
higher life will become impossible.
There IS also u cause within the earth
which might anticipate this crisis Grad
ually, but surely, the erosion of coast line
by the sea and the fiattening of noun
tains by torrents and glaciers are reduc-
ing dry land to the level Of the ocean.
When the leveling is complete, the earth
will become one vast swamp, unsuitable
for human life. Four o.Sive million years
is the period given to the earth by geolo-
gists wherein to reach this stage.
But these speculative theorists do not
sem to take into consideration the impor-
tant physical fact that nothing is wasted
on earth. If rocks and mountains are
eroded or depressed in one part, the detri-
tbs takes part in the work of construction
at another for the destructive and con-
structive clements of nature are always
uniformly potent.
Matter destroyed merely undergoes con-
version, and whatever force there may be
in the superstition that the sun will part
with its heat in the course of time there
seems no good ground for the theory that
the extinction Of life may be anticipated
by the conversion of dry land into DESC
late swamp through any natural process
of geologic evolution.-Chicago Times.

TRYING TO HELP GOD.

.. Here is charming little incident
hich illustrates the thoughtfulness
6f childhood-a quality we are apt
very much to undervalue. A little
girl seeing the servant throw the
crumbs into the fire said:
"a Don't you know that God takes
care of the sparrows ~
''If God takes care of them,n was
the careless reply, 1--WE need not trou-
BILE ourselves about them"
But" said the little girl, Il had
rather be like God, and help Him
take care of the little birds, than scat
ter or waste the food He gives u.s.
She carefully collected what was
left of the crumbs and threw them out
of the window In shsrt time sew
eral little birds flew eagerly to the
spot, and picked up the crumbs she
had scattered. After this, she every
day collected the crumbs that fell
around the table and threw them out
of the window for the little birds,
and during all the winter these little
creatures came regularly after each
meal to partake of the food thus pro-
vided for their support. This was
her idea of helping God"

An EiectricaI Detective.

Many INSTANCES have been cited In
which electricity has been called
upon to play an important part in the
proven ton or detection OF crime, aud
a story which nails from Paris would
show that the willy Gaul Is quite
abreast of the times In the matter of
protecting his property from the cas-
usl sboplifter. The proprietor of q
retail shoe store who had suffered
much from mysterious .pilferipgs, hit
upon an ingenious application of
electricity for the detection of the
thief. He 80 arranged the goods he
exhibited outside his store that at
the more exposed corners certain
pairs were placed in connection with
the wire of an electric bell. One
morning, as he was sitting at break
fast, he heard the bell ring
suddenly, aud, rushing out,
he saw q young man tearing down
the street at express speed, with the
boots under his arm. A sprinting
match took place between the two
men, and the shoemaker proved to
be the better man, as he overlook and
captured the thief. The old story that
he was examining The goods with a
view of buying them, availed the
prisoner nothing, for, upon being
searched, he was found to have
only A sous In his pockets, and was
marched Off to the commissary of
police. On his case being heard he
was promptly sentenced to imprisoD-
ment, and was thus afforded an OPP
portunIty of meditating on the elec-
tricsr blight which is rapidly short
ening the career OF the once prosper
GUS professional thief.
