ference. At times this thin crust cracks open and a great quantity of sea water rushes into its fiery bosom. The result is the formation of an immense volume of steam which, following the line of least resistance, bursts through It's outer crust and we have earthquake phenomena and volcanic eruptions. Our earth Is, accord ing to astronomers, just entering the Arc turian summer. If 1t is true that we slowly revolve around this intensely hot central sun and alternately freeze and melt that life disappears and in turn re- appears in the form of single cells, that, uniting multiplying and improving through thousands of ages, we must, as reasonable beings, pay some attention to the ex- tremely probable theory of evolution.
 The writer has recently returned from a far away corner of the earth, that en- inent men of science claim was the spot where man, through the process of evolu- ton, first appeared A few years ago the United States government sent the dis tinguished geologist, Dr. George F. Beck CT, to the Philippines to investigate the origin of the archipelago. l was there when he arrived, followed his investiga- tions as closely as possible while he re- mained and watched eagerly for his re-

formed ages ago, have been found fossil specimens of floral and faunal life, that are now, in the quick, inhabiting the tor rid zone.
 When the earth is in conjunction with this great central sun all animal and veg etable life disappears. This sun, known in astronomy as Arcturus, is the parent sun of the entire universe The volume of it's light and heat is 1900 times greater than the sun around which our earth and the Solar system of which it Is a very insig- nificant member revolves. When we get into conjunction with Arcturus the heat Is so intense that our planet becomes fiery liquid mass, all water, disappears and the soil and mountains are reduced to lava. As the earth slowly, but gradually swings back upon its circuit 1t begins to cool, as does any substance that is slowly withdrawn from fierce heat, and as it cools the earths crust begins to form. When the temperature is suitable, life, in single cell form appears The variety of these single cells is many. Cells that have an affinity for each other readily unite and form what may be termed cooperative partnership. Such groups unite with other like groups, and, follow ing this natural law, the lower orders of animal, vegetable and mineral life appear upon the gradually cooling surface of our globe The center of our planet Is mass of liquid fire. It's crust is only 60 miles thick, very thin indeed when we take into consideration the immenSity of It's circum-

and as declaimer; and if he had given to hard study the time which he worse than wasted in dissipation he might have left a brighter name to posterity
 Notwithstanding the mixture of the evil dence, 1t will be a long time before the general public will be convinced that there Is nothing in the size of the head.
 Here is a paragraph for the boys:
 In one of his lectures on "The Choice of Amusements," the Rev J. c. Kimball says: Hunting and fishing are the in heritance of barbarous age, and in our day have nothing manly or courageous about them" It may be suspected that Mir kimball could not kill a grouse on the wing, and we doubt if he ever fished for speckled trout in a mountain torrent. If he should spend a week with Brethren w. c. Lindsay and C. c. Brown, hunting grouse and deer in the mountains of Pennsylvania county, North Carolina, where the rattlesnakes are thick and bear trails often become unpleasantly warm. he might, perhaps, change his opinion as to the manliness of such sports; and If he undertook to follow Lindsay, as he wades for miles down the Toxaway, fish ing for trout, where the torrent roars so what one cannot hear his own voice.

"HE large number of manuscripts

 ! Christians were written &C., cording to our most authentic histories, from 20O0 to 5000 years ago. Prior to the coming of our Savior the world was in habted by teeming millions of people, who, according to what is now called pro- fane history, worshiped the sun, moon, stars, fire, graven images, and various other gods whose number was legion. An cient historians, as well as men of sci- ence of our day tell us that our very ancient forefathers walked on "all fours' and wagged their tails. The great Darwin and many other writers of renown have shown us beyond any shadow of doubt that the present species of the animal Kingdom, now inhabiting the planet earth, called human being," Is beyond question a product of evolution. Astronomers tell us that our solar system is but one of countless millions that revolve around an immense sun that is the center of all cre- ation. It takes the earth and the solar system of which it Is member, hundreds of thousands of years to make the circuit of this immense central sun. We have travelled around 1t many times in the past and at each revolution our world has become alternately liquid fire and solid ice.
