the earth's surface is, on the average,
washed away by the streams every
5000 years and deposited at the bot.
tom of the ocean. This amounts to
more than 300 feet in million years.
AS the main elevation of North Amer.
lea is 74S feet, and that of Europe GIL
feet, it follows that by the operation
of present forces Europe will be
washed into the sea in 100000 years,
and America in 100000 years.
What providence has in store for us
after that, no man knows If the sunk.
en- portion shall rise at the end of that
period. as 1t did at the end of the coal
period, there will be dry land to live
on, but 1t is doubtful if it have such
stores of iron and coal as have blessed
the present race of human beings.
There are two other sources of heat
to which we may look with much con.
fidence and hope. 1t was more than
dream of Ericsson to invent an en-
gine which could be run by collect
ing the direct rays of the sun through
immense sun-dials, thus generating
the heat necessary to set in motion
the wheels of industry. But the sue.
cessful carrying out of his plans
would necessitate the transfer of our
great manufacturing centers to the

the present rate, or, indeed. at any
rate, forever. AS Lord Kelvin has
we'll said. we know that the sun is
cooling off just as certainly as we
should know that hot stone which
we encountered in a field was cooling
OFF, though We had not seen 1t long
enough to measure the rate of its
cooling. Heat is not a permanent
quality of any known object. The sun
must be losing its heat, and hence in
time will become a cold and lifeless
object.
If things continue to go on as they
now do, astronomers tell us, the sun
will lose its life-giving heat long before
100000 years have elapsed Like all
other cooling bodies, the sun must be
diminishing in size. Its diameter must
be contracting. Newcomb estimates
that in less than 100000 years the
suns diameter will contract to one
half its present length, so that the
sun will occupy only one-eighth of the

EpeINes FOR PILLOW CASES.
Crochet Work the Best for Use In the
Hot Weather.

Crocheted edgings make a pretty
and useful finish for pillow cases used
during the summer, when simple bed
furnishings are preferred to the more
ornate. Many women keep a bit OF
this crochet work at hand to do when
enjoying the cool breezes Of the YER
anda or Willing away few minutes
in their rooms. It makes excellent
pickup work. /,
The favorite crochet pattern for this
use is the Greek key. which Is made
with the corner worked in the lace.
For shams the corner is necessary.
but for the pillow cases straight GRO
Chef Is all that is required. The
Greek key pattern Is about two inches
in width, with q battlemented edge.
The key design runs through the upper
side Of the lace.
A wheel pattern looks well when
used this way and is simpler to make
on account OF being narrower. The ia.
vorite one has row of wheels through
the center and fan-shaped edge.
The Worcester cross border Is an
other effective pattern II one likes q
