TENT LIFE SAVES GIRL,


Because she was brave enough

tent In the grounds OF the Waltham
hospital. defying alike the billiards

skilled physicians year ago said could
not live more than a week or two, has
survived the ravages Of typhus and
palsy and Is now on the road TO conf
plete recovery. Miss Zobel was as
healthy as any girl until the diseases
set In in a PECULIARLY severe form. AZ
ter a long illness she became temper
arlly convalescent. but before she left
her bed a relapse took place. The ply
sicians OF the hospital on examination
learned that the typhus had attacked
the bones OF one OF her limbs aud was
rapidly eating them away. There
seemed no hope Of saving her life. Tor
she was so fran that il seemed like
mockery 10 suggest amputation. When
no other avenue Of hope remained open
DR. Henry H. Chadwick conceived the
idea OF trying what nature could do.
When the plucky girl said she was will

pitched for her and she took NJ her
abode there For weeks and months It
was discouraging work for improve

mode Of life that actually she seemed

began to return 20 her cheeks and her
physicians knew that the heroic treat

sgine that sudden yielding should take
place"
Speaking Of the California earth
quake, Prof Milne says;
From measurements now being
made IN the devastated area OF Califor-
MIA It would seem that movements Of
some six feet or seven feet have taken
place along lines approaching 900 miles
N length The breadth Of the area
whore fsulting IS visible on the surface
might be 700 miles. That II 10 say,
that an area OF about 10000 square
miles has been shattered. There are
many good reasons which would lead
us 10 expect that these faults may ex-
tend through what Il called the crust
OF the world. or 10 a depth. let US say
OF thirty miles. The inference from
this y that nearly 100000 cubic miles
Of rock have been suddenly shifted
surh estimates may be run up TO 10
600 900 cubic miles II Is the impact o.
enormous masses IKE these which gave
rise TO the initial Impulse which set the

earthquakes occurred IN 1888 and 1897.

yatlons Rocks which were below the

4 very striking claim made by the
writer quoted is that this shifting OF
earth material possibly has some effect
upon the rotation Of the earth II IS
known. he says. thar at times when oh
seryatlon shows us that the axis Of the
earth Is slightly changed in its direc-
ton. then these large earthquakes are
frequent whether the earthquakes are
the cause Of the changes or the result
OF them.
II Is interesting to notice how SCI

and more convinced OF the truth Of the
philosophy OF the inspired writer's Of

ylctlon. Today no scientist denies the
scrlptural idea OF the instability Of all
things in nature, both In the heavens

that suns and planets are subject TO
