EARTHQUAKES ON
PACIFIC COAST
Has Had More Shocks
Than Other Parts
Of America

According to statistics tho Pacific
Coast has been visited with more earth.
quakcs than any other part of North
America. This is probably due. II Is
believed. to the fact that earthquakes
are more common on boundary lincl
between great elevations and great de.
prcssiuns. Tho Pacific coast Is between
great elevations of mountains and the
extreme depth OF the Pacific ocean.
In 1885 there were fifty mine earth
quakcs. and two-thirds of these were
on the Pacific slope. From 1872 to 1881
there were SGl earthquakes in the
United States. OF these III were on
the Atlantic slope. GG In the Mississip
lpi Valley. and l5l were on tho Pacific
slope. In New England during the 25U
years ending in 1870 there were 23i
earthquakes recorded. and II Is DO.
liovcd that almost as many were not
recorded.
The greatest American earthquake
was at Charleston. 5. C., on the evening
Of August 81. 1886. II was felt over
an area 500 miles wide and 1000 long.
from north to south. Many lives were
lost and nine-tenths OF the buildings

several months.
The greatest earthquake OF modern
times was that at Lisbon, November
| |, 1855. II last but six minutes and left
the city heap of ruins. In that earth
| quake 10000 lives were lost. II was
ielt from the Madeiras to Britain. In
contrast with the Lisbon earthquake
as regards time of duration was tho
earthquake Of Calabria In 1888. It's
shocks kept up at intervals for -four
years. One of the effects Of that earth
quake was the opening Of n chasm SOD
feet long and 200 feet deep.
Volcanic regions are more subject ia
earthquakes than other places, II Is
stated. but some of the most severe
have not been near volcano. Some
times the sudden escape of lava from q
volcano will cause serious earthquakes
One case of this kind was the great ca
plOsion OF Krakatoa, In the Sunda
Straits. and as result Of It portion
OF land was sunk $50 fathoms beneath
water.
Scientists differ concerning the
causes of earthquakes, but II Is genGr'
ally agreed that they are primarily due
to readJustment of the earth's crust In
changing conditions OF pressure. Whos
severe earthquakes occur beneath the
ocean, tidal waves are usually the re-
suit. A change in the condition Of the
atmosphere is believed by some 10
| cause. earthquakes at times.
In the report George Darwin 4
the British Association, he shows that
when the barometer rises an inch over
an area as large as Australia, the in
creased load OF air sinks the land two
ar three inches. and that the same
pressure on the ocean may dcpross the
water n foot or more

Sure to Die.

Nora was a good girl, bu. dearly
loved to wheedle the "missis" out o.
an extra halliday off once in a while.
One morning Nora, busily engaged
with the weeks washing, asked
Gould get off Sunday, mum, to so to
my brothers funeral, num-" Says
the "missis": why, Nora, this is only
Monday. You don't mean to tell me
that they are keeping your brothers
body whole week."
ooh, no, mum; he isn't dead yet,
but the funeral will he next Sunday"
But, my good girl, how can any
doctor say today that a man will be
dead in a week from now? Many a
person given up for dead has lived to
a good old age"

The following incident occurred
during the administration of Gov.

tom Of the governor and council to
visit the Indians once in two years.
On one occasion, during a visit to the
Passamaquoddy tribe, situated % miles
above Calais on the St Croix waters.
after everything had been arranged
satisfactorily to the tribe the governor
sent for the chief spokesman of the
Indians, known as Lying joe" and
asked where he could find a trusty
Indian to look after a certain matter.

could summon, Strengthened himself

replied: "Gubner, don't you trust a

BOYS TERRIBLE ECZEMA.
Mouth and Eyes Covered with Crusts
Hands Pinned Down-Miracu-
lous Cure by Cuticura.

When my little boy was six months
old. he had eczema. The sores extend
ed SO quickly over the whole body
that we at once called in the doctor.
We then went to another doctor,
but he could not help him, and in our
despair we went to a third one Mat
tiers became so bad that he had regu-
lar holes in his cheeks, large enough
to put finger into. The food had to
be given with spoon, for his mouth
was covered with crusts as thick as
a finger, and whenever he opened the
mouth they began to bleed and sup
pirate. as did also his eyes. Hands,
arms, chest and back, in short the
whole body was covered over and
over. We had no rest by day or night.
Whenever he was laid in his bed, we
had to pin his hands down; otherwise
he would scratch his face and make
an open sore. 1 think his face must
have itched most fearfully.
I'VE finally thought nothing could
help, and / had made up my mind to
send my wife with the child to Eu-
rope, hoping that the sea air might
cure him, otherwise he was to be put
under good medical care there. But,
Lord be blessed, matters came differ
emily, and We soon saw a miracle. A
friend Of ours spoke about Cuticura.
We made trial with Cuticura Soap,
Ointment and Resolvent, and within
ten days or two weeks we noticed a
decided Improvement. Just as quickly
as the sickness had appeared it also
began to disappear, and within ten
weeks the child was absolutely well.

as never before. F. Hohrath, Presi-
