HEAT AND COLD.

There are many writers who have spent their lives in the investigation Of different subjects that seriously affect mankind. Man origin, his mission in the world and his subsequent career have been duly considered and it is the opinion of the wisest of men that the more man investigates the mysteries of human life the farther he is from their solution.
 A learned professor in one of the late magazines has an interesting article on the life of the world and while he can hot give perfectly satisfactory informa- tion upon the subject he claims that during the life Of the world human life is frequently extinguished. That is, the world is visited at certain times by terrible catastrophies that last long enough for the extinguishment of all animal life and then development must begin again the same as when Adam This much by way of introduction.
 The learned writer we above refer to claims that the world as far as it's ami mal life is concerned, has been annihi- lated time and again by heat, cold, plagIes. floods and other violent dis turbances of the law of mature. For the past two or three weeks it is we'll known that the heat has been almost unbearable and in fact thousands of people throughout the country have succumbed to its terrible ravages. If the heat has been just about as much as humanity can bear in the past two or three weeks. what would take place If the temperature would suddenly arise to a degree where animal life can no longer endure? It would not re. Quire very great rise in the tempera. $ure to produce this remarkable effect and it would have to continue but z short space of time until every species of animal life was extinguished.
 ! The writer we speak of does not de sire to be considered an alarmist, bu claims that thorough investigation O the laws of nature will convince tn most skeptical Of human beings tha mankind has always stood upon yawning abyss and but touch is re Quired to hurl us all into chaos an oblivion If the world should ceas for moment its continued Whirlin through space it would be fatal to al mankind
 Whatever may be the fate Of thi world we do not believe :. will eve be destroyed by chance Or aeeiden If it was the object of creation fo the world to be destroyed it will com to an end whenever the time set for to do so arrives. However, we do nc believe much in the theory of destru( tion by heat, because 10 matter ho7
