The ocean was once merely brackish
and rot salt, as IL is now. This was
when the earth was in its first youth
and before there was any land show
ing at all or any animal life in the wa
ter. Az this time the water was grad
nally cooling from it's original state OF
steam. and the salts were slowly IN
dergoing the change from gases into
solids. Then came the appearance OF
land and, later on, rivers, which grad
ualfy washed down more and more
salts, while at the bottom OF the ocean
itself chemical action was constantly
adding o brihe to the waters. al
present it is estimated there are In the

about IL is that If all the salt could be
taken out In a moment the level OF the
