END OF THE WORLD.
Ore Scientific Theory of How Our
Planet May Perish.

One Scientific Theory Of How Our
Planet May Perish.
A scientific forecast of how the end
Of the world might come has been
given by Professor Ellard Gore. His
theory is that final cataclysm may pos
sibly be the result Of a collision be-
tween the sun and some dark, dead,
derelict planet
Although astronomers have no &C.
tual proof that such dead suns exist,
without life or light and careering
about in space, they believe it quite
possible. The result Of a collision be-
tween the sun and a dark planet
would be that the formers light and
heat would be enormously increased
and the earth instantly destroyed by
combustion.
Professor Gore tells how we should
be warned of our approaching doom.
when about 100000 miles from
the sun, the dark body would begin to
shine by reflected light In about ten
years it would have become so bright
as to be visible to the naked eye. In
fifteen years it would be brighter than
any object except the moon. Very soon
afterward would come the great catas-
trophe of it's collision, moving at 400
miles a second, with the sun moving
at the same speed" -Dundee Observer

Proverbs of Siam.

It has been said, '"Tell me peoples
proverbs. and I will tell you what sort
Of people they are" Judged in this
way, the Siamese are shrewd people,
The Alenam, their chief river, is to
Siam what the Nile is to Egypt, and
the elephant, tiger and crocodile are
found in jungle and stream.
Here are a few of their proverbs:
"Whcn you go into the woods, do not
forget your wood knife" "Place not
your boat across the stream" because
Of the CURRENT. can elephant, though
he has four legs, may slip, and a doc

THE CANOES.
Ancient Legends Of the Sacred River
Of the Hindoos,

Of the Hindoos.
From an icy cavern at the foot of q
Himalayan snow bed more than 10000
feet above the level of the sea issues
small stream which becomes the
mighty Ganges, flowing for 1900 miles
through India to the bay of Bengal,
and of whose course every foot is holy
ground
With Mother Ganga, as the pious
Hindoos reverently call her, no river
on earth can compare in sanctity.
The old poem tells us that the heav-
emily Gauges flowed from the toe of
Vishnu and was brought down from
heaven by the prayers of the saint
Bhagiratha to purify the ashes of the
10000 sons of King Sagara, who had
been burnt by the angry glances of the
sage Kapila.
(>"";a was angry at being brought
do heaven, and to save the
ear. ,o!: - impetuous rush silva
caught the ri'e4' on his brow and with
his matted LOCKS checked its course.
The legends go on to tell how the de-
scent of the Gauges disturbed the sage
Jahnu in the performance of his reli-
gious duties, WhcreupOn in his rage he
drank up the river, but subsequently
relented and permitted it to flow from
his ear.-Pearson's Weekly.

LUMBER COSTS LESS.
Reduction in Prices of From 81 to SO
Per Thousand

Prices of pine lumber have been
slashed by the Weyerhaeuser inter-
ests 81 to So thousand. Prevailing
conditions are such that it was felt
that these reductions could be made
and are liable to stay in for tue ensu-
ing year.
One of the reasons given for max
ing the reductions is that it is cheap
er to conduct logging operations this
winter on account of lower wages be.
ing paid. The prices of other com.
modities have come down and it WIS
felt that lumber should come down
likewise. 1t is expected that the
reductions will stimulate building op-
erations considerably this year.
