That the crust of the earth is formed
In layers no one will dispute, and that
all substance GA the surface Of the earth
is drawn by some force toward the
earth's center Is also undeniable. This
is called centripetal force. To admit
the existence of this force is equal to
the admission of counteracting force
called centrifugal.
According to every experiment and all
philosophical reasoning, there must DO
a line of equilibrium drawn somewhere
between the center and the circumfer-
ence of the earth The exact location OF
this line will always be determined by
the motion of the earth. 1t is on this
line that the external and the internal
forces meet in deadly conflict, striving for
gravitatious power and the enforcement
of their laws. The friction produced by
these two forces must be the source OF
all internal heat and the eternal fire.
1t is these two opposing forces that
form and sustain the immense balance
wheel called 'the earth, which is 20,
600 miles in circumference, but cannot
exceed 200 miles in thickness, including
the lava belt in the center.
The irregular motion of the earth
will change the central line of gravity
and cause an eruption of lava either ex-
ternal or internal. The earth when
viewed as a whole is unit, and SO
are the laws which operate it, whether
applied to the external or the internal
surface.
The law which reverses gravitation
ON this equalizing line has given us two
earths in one, or world within
world. The friction and heat of the
earth at the equator are so much greater
than they are at the poles that the law OF
electric equilibrium will produce an
electric current to meet the demand for
light and heat.
This internal earth is a counterpart
of the external in all things, except its
Atlantic and Pacific are not quite SC
vast, and its Nile and its Amazon are
not quite SO long. Neither is its equator
nor its zones nor its poles quite SO high.
Nature, with an impartial hand. has
withheld no good thing from this new
world that can be tasted of by any 9th
er. Humanity here is as far removed
from Darwin as Darwin is removed
from the chosen seed Of Adams race.

VENTILATION FOR EVERYBODY.
The Only Method by Which All Kinds o
Cranks Can BE Suited.

The Only Method by Which All Kinds OF
Cranks Can BE Suited.
One of the greatest difficulties met
with in ventilating public buildings and
railway cars is to settle the question OF
how much air shall be admitted or how
often the entire cubic contents of an
apartment shall be renewed. This from
the fact that in the quantity of air re-
quired individuals vary greatly. To
some the whole ocean of the atmosphere
is inadequate, and they do not feel even
comfortable unless Niagara of air is
pouring over them.
This is the fresh air fiend, male or fe-
male, who opens the car window and
swallows dust and cinders (and makes
others do the same) for the sake of salts
flying their craving. Behind sits doubt
less a person to whom the least breath
of air in motion is a calamity, yet both
of them must make the journey in COM
pany. One has just as much right ar
the other to his views of what is desira-
BILE to him, and neither is called upon
to give way to the other. One smothers,
and the other feels that he or she is
about to be blown out of the car.
The only compromise that we can
think of that would answer and make
ventilation of public rooms u success is
to provide an automatic system which
shall be variable in different parts of
the same room. These parts should be
supplied with traps in the floor and
have, say, a six second fan blower be-
meath each trap and be accessible only
to fresh air fiends of both sexes
In the other parts dead air space,
approaching a vacuum, should be main
tanned, into which little sulphuret Of
hydrogen should be injected periodically
in order to obtain all the phenomena of
bad ventilation for persons of infrm
health who are compelled to travel
Then every one would be satished--it

all else that the patient shall have con-
fidence in his medical adviser.
Being called in haste to patient I'M
der the care Of very young practition-

water was being given at intervals, with
certain other treatment The great ply
stefan carefully examined the patient
and said, "Give him another spoonful
of brandy.
He then retired to private room
with the young doctor in charge.
"It is a case of so and so, " he said as
soon as the door was closed. "You
shouldn't have given brandy on any &C
count "
"But, t." said the junior practitioner
in amazement, 81 thought, Sir Will

AMUSING THE QUEEN.
How Maids of Honor Are Selected an
Some of Their Duties.

How Maids of Honor Are Selected and
Some of Their Duties.
Maids of honor are chosen by the
queen herself from among the daughters
of peers, who, if not themselves connect
ed with the royal household, are per-
sonal friends Of her majesty. A letter is
always sent to the parents of the young
lady requesting that as personal favor
to the queen she may be permitted to
attend at court. AS the position is I'M
deniable and the salary is e300 a year,
the request is invariably accepted, and
the newly chosen maid receives from
the lord chamberlain the command for
her first "wait. -
The first thing brought to the maid
of honor is her badge, which is min
iature picture Of the queen set in brill
liants and hung from ribbon. Just
before the dinner hour the maid Of hon
or In waiting has to stand In the corri-
dor outside the queens private apart
ments. She carries bouquet, which on
entering the dining room she lays at the
right hand of the queens plate
The maid of honor sits at dinner next
to the gentleman ON the queen right.
This rule is, however, relaxed when
royal guests are present. After dinner,
unless otherwise commanded, the maid
of honor retires to her own room. whence
however. she is frequently called to
read, sing. play the piano or take a
hand at cards
AS regards this last, the household
have always to be provided with fresh
ly coined money, for the queen is not
supposed to handle money which has
ever been in circulation. New York

Early london Directories

The earliest known directory of peo-
pie and places seems to be that Of Lon
don in 1877, Of which only three copies
are known-one in the Bodleian library,
one in the Manchester Free library
(Which was bought for G5) and one sole
at the Rev. Mr. Hunters sale, which
realized so, although imperfect. The
Manchester copy was carefully reprinted
in 1873 by Chatto g. Windus, with an
interesting introduction, and the next
London directory seems to have been
one of 300 pages. published in 1881.
The editor of the reprint in 1878 gives
some details Of earlier manuscript di-
rectories, or "Office Of Addresses" by
Henry Robinson, in 1850, who had an
'offlce in Threadneedle street, over
against the Castle tavern, close to the
Old Exchange in London, . and 1t was
described as keeping particular regis
ters of all manners of addresses" with a
catalogue Of subjects of inquiry 80
copious and SO curious as to be fresh
proof that there is nothing new under
the sun. Sixpence was the fee, and for
this small sum answers to all sorts of
questions connected with business could
be obtained. Notes and Queries.

WHERE TIE eRAvgsT QUAKE:
And often the Anticipation Is Worse Thf


And Often the Anticipation Is Worse Than
the Realization.
Most men will face a gatling gun
with less nervousness than they will a
dentist. 1t is hard to say why, but a
dentists chair is a more terrible object
to the average mortal than surgeon S
operating table, and nearly every dem
fist can tell stories of ordinarily cour-
ageous men who have backed out of an
engagement at the last minute.
One young Chicagoan, with plenty of
nerve ordinarily, knows of dentist
whom he studiously avoids on account
of sudden and unaccountable weaken
ing at the critical moment. And the
dentist-well, the dentist would proba-
bly, like to sec tho young man. The lat
ter had been troubled with toothache
for about a week and at last made up
his mind to have the tooth pulled. To
prepare himself for the ordeal he took
some liberal doses of whisky and then
sought out the dentist The pain Of the
tooth, combined with the whisky, had
put him in pretty nervous state, and
to quiet him the dentist put him up in
an operating chair and put big tum-
bier of whisky on the table beside him.
"When you are ready, call me, he
said. II have some work to do in the
next room.
Half an hour later the dentist looked
in and asked:
care you ready?"
Mot yet, DOCTOR" replied the pa
tient.
Another half hour went by, and the
doctor tried again, but the patient still
wanted more time.
Half an hour or so after that the den
fist looked In again, and the patient
had gone. So had the whisky. The
young man had finished the last of 1t
and still found that he had not enough
nerve to undergo the ordeal, so he had
quietly got down from the chair, Sc
cured his hat and sneaked out
But that is merely an illustration OF
what fear Of dentist will make man
