southern part of the globe accelerated
it's rotary movement in respect to the
northern part; hence, a dislocation
which caused what geographers call
the mediterranean depression" that
immense depression which, from the
Antilles to the Pacific, passing by
way of the Mediterranean sea, the
Persian gulf and the East Indies,
forms one of the zones of least resis-
lance on the crust of the earth There
is also found along this one of the
most sharply accentuated of volcanic
lines.
AS for the earthquakes, the area
that they cover is, as the theory
would lead US to expect much vaster
in extent. In fact, they occupy those
regions that may be compared to in
clined planes. They are, to a certain
extent, Independent of the volcanoes,
and Intimately related to the steep in
clines of the earths surface This
explains the fact that the centers of
shaking are in general localized in
the marine abysses along the lines of
high relief.
To Be Answered by Time.
When the crust of the earth shall
have become too thick to bend before
these periodical oscillations what will
become of our globe? When the pres
sure upon the internal core shall be
felt perpetually, how will those gases
behave which are compressed in that
immense reservoir from which we are
separated by such an insignificant
crust? Terrific commissions will then
menace our miserable planet.
Ask an astronomer to show you the
CHI IF
satellite; the surface of the moon
shows us, very probably, the desolate
aspect of a world in which volcanic
action. in the spasms of frightfu1
agony, has put an end to all planetary
life.
Cataclysms will transform our earth
and at that time the volcanoes of the
central plateau will warn mankind that
the stability of the earth is a vain
word Everything passes, everything
changes, nothing is stable, except He
who created the world and who gives
to men when it pleases him such
grand and terrible lessons
The Able Moreux in his article goes
into details of what these changes that
he describes are likely to do to Eu-
rope American readers will find it
more interesting to consider what will
be their effect upon North America
Applying the abbe's reasoning, it is
possible to make a forecast Physical
geographers tell us that the great
chains of mountains which stretch
from Canada to South Carolina were
thrown up at very early periods,
though separated by relatively wide
intervals The oldest rocks on the
continent are those of the Laurentian
mountains, in Quebec The Adiron-
dacks were an island before the Cat

Apparently the milk producers have
not become discouraged in their eff

even though the agitation of the sub

from purely financial standpoint,
does it pay?
