The Volcano Belt.

Mans habit OF delving into the earth
for both scientific and Industrial reasons
has made what may be called the internal
mechanism of this old orb a matter OF
deep concern at times, and volcanic fur

matters relating TO the earths interior.
Forces which bring about these surface
manifestations of Internal disorder fol-
low the law OF least resistance. They
break out where Il Is most convenient 10
do So Scientists have been able TO trace
the line along which possible volcanic
eruptions are arranged, and while the
line is somewhat erratic IT is definite
enough, and the frequent disturbances
within the range agreed upon have amply
established the, correctness OF the con-
clusions reached.

thorities with reference TO the matter
