BIRTH or THE MOON.
When the Earth Was II Sphere OF
Lava, Molten and l'lattcncd.
{ (llarper'S Week ly.)

The earth revOlvcS on its axis once
in twcnty-four hours. Millions Of
years ago the day WAS twenty-five
hours; millions Of years before 1t
was twCnty-onc hours. AS we look
backward into time we find the earth
revolving faster and faster. There
was time ages ago. long before ge-
ology begins, when the earth was ro-
tating i'm Il day OF five or six hours
in length. In the rcmotest past the
earth rcvolvcd in y day OF about five
hours. 1t could rcvolvc no fasteD
than this and remain Il single unN
broken mass.
1t was at this time that the moon
was born, separated broken off from
the parent mass Of the earth The
earth was then Il molten, nattened
sphere OF lava. It's whole body was
fluid. The tides, which now are
small. superficial and. so to say. local,
were then universal and immense.
They occurred at short intervals.
h' "Hoi' Su'idcc ol our SlODc was
affected. And the CORES ponding lu-
mar tides in the fluid. molten moon
were indefinitely greater still.
Our day is now twcnty-four hours.
The distance OF the moon is now
10000 miles. When our day was
about five hours long the moon was
in contact with the c0rth's surface.
1t mad Just broken away from it's
parent mass. As the length Of the
terrestrial day increased. so did the
distance OF the moon. The two
quantities are connected By inexora-
bic equations. /! one varies. so must

time OF n planet is shorter than the
period Of revolution OF its satellite
'he erect OF their mutual action is to
accelerate the motion Of the satellite
and to force ii TO move in a larger
orbit, to increase its distance. thnre-
fore.
The day Of the earth is now shorter
than the m0nth--thc period of revo
luiion-of the moon. The moon is
therefore slowly rcceding for thou
sands Of centuries. But the day of
the earth is, as we have seen, SLOWLY
growing longer The finger Of the
'ldeS Is always pressing upon tha
RIM OF our huge lly-whccl and SLOWLY
bu, surely lcsscning the speed OF It's
rotation. So long as the terrestrial
day IS shorter than the lunar month";
the moon will continue to reccde
from us.

The Appalachian Exposition, to
be held at Knoxville, Tenn, Sept.
~ to Oct. -, next, not only Is
attracting attention oI the coun.
ties, agrcuturists and mineral.
ogists, but the government has recog-
nzcd the Exposition anl the Naval,
War, Agricultural, horticultural and
Forestry Departments and Smith
sonian Institute will have exhibits.
Among the exhibit from the Navy De-
partmcnt will be shown models Of the
following oattleships and cruisers:
Vermont, Mississippi, Tennessee, ST.
Louis, Olympia and Nashville.
The exhibits from the other de.
partmcnts will be elaborate, instruc.
tive and entertaining.
Assurances have been received from
the states of North and South Caro-
lima that they will have exhibits Of
their resources at the Exposition. 1t is
more than probable that Georgia and
Virginia will also be represented.
A number of cities have already ap.
piled for space, including Augusta. Co.
lumbus, Rome and probably Macon
and Atlanta, Ga; Ashevillc, Charlotte
and Winston-Salcm, n. G.; a number
Of Tennessee and probably large
number Of Virginia cities. The num-
ber Of applications for information
and space from states, cities and coun-
ties has surprised the management Of
