came very marked at about o'clock

The "Bull."

The origin of the word bull as the
definition of confused utterance Is
doubtful. Some philologists say it
comes from the French boule-" fraud
and others that it is derived from
the Icelandic bull-"nonsense." Many
definitions have been attempted. but
the best pT9labISis that of Sydney
Smith. Writing Of the difference be-
tween Wit and bulls" he says: "Wit
discovers real relations that are appar-
ent; bulls admit apparent relations
that are not real. The stronger the
apparent connection and the more COM
p.ete the real disconnection Of the
IDEAS the greater the surprise and the
better the bull"

Our Elastic Globe,

Nothing seems more rigid than the
crust of the earth. but scientific men
tell us that it bends and buckles APP
probably under the pull Of the heaven
" bodies. Careful observation has
also shown that the shores on opposite
sides Of tidal basin approach each
other at high tide. The weight Of
water In the Irish sea. for instance, Is
so much greater at that time that the
bed sinks trlhe and consequently
pulls the Irish and English coasts
nearer together. The buildings of LiT-
erpoo and Dublin may be fancied rs
bowling to each other across the chan
mel, the DETECTION from perpendicular
being about one inch for every Six
teen miles. 1t has been shown. too,
that ordinary valleys widen under the
heat of the sun and contract again at
night. We live not on q rigid but an
elastic globe.
