It May Be Mass of Steel Some $3.50

Various conjectures have been made
from time to time by biologists as to
the possible condition of the center of
the earth. One of the most popular
impressions seems to be that the
earth's center or core, is a flaming
furnace. At a meeting of the Seis-
biological association at The Hague
Professor Weichert asserted that his
studies Of the varying velocity of
earthquake tremors passing through
the interior of the globe have led him
to the conclusion that the earth con

lying little less than twenty miles
below the surface of the earth.
Men sometimes dream of enormous
wealth stored deep in the earth below
the reach of miners, but experts now
aver that there is little or no ground
to believe that any valuable metallic
deposits lie very deep in the earth's
crust regardless of Professor Wei
chert's beliefs to the contrary. Such
deposits. it is said, are made by under
ground waters, and owing to the pres

told In Corwin's old home of Lebanon
Of how he won his FIRST election to
congress. He was young man and
already noted as an orator. but he
had a hard district and little encour-

his tour of the counties and one night
stopped at the double cabin Of farm

cate of political policies Of the oppO-
sition. Corwin talked politics care
fully with the old man and his sons
before bedtime. but had little hope of
winning a single vote in the house
hold. In the morning the old man
took Corwin outside and announced
that every voter in the family would
be for him on election day. This
astonished and delighted COrwin. who
could not help but ask why the sudden
change of heart.
"The old man told how the opposition
candidate had stopped at his house
one night the week before and how
the host and wife had watched the
candidate go to bed. To their disgust.
he actually put on a nightgown like
those worn by woman. This dis
gusted the rugged old pioneer. Then
Corwin was told how the old farmer
and his wife had watched him go to
bed, and as he had not bothered about
a nightie they determined he was not
taken to frills. Corwin could see the
humor of the incident. and in every
succeeding speech he told that night
shirt story on the other candidate
holding him up to scorn. The result
was a victory for Corwin, and he
owed it all to that story of shirt
