Exhortlnc the Ducks.

There are two tiny boys in this town
whose mother sings often to them at
their request, and as she is an ardent
church woman, the children hear as
many hymns as anything else. The
other day they were playing with their
wooden ducks in the bathtub. and
strangely enough the ducks were more
inclined to float sideways than in the
approved manner. After several at
tempts to keep the misguided ducks
straight the older boy shouted:
Stand up. duck, stand up!" Then
two-year-old, noting the familiar
phrase, leaned over the tub and ex-
horted. "'Tand up. dnckl 'Tand up

OUR SENSITIVE PLANET.
Constant Changes In the Shape Of the
Eartt's Crust.

Constant Changes In the Shape Of the
Earth's Crust.
One naturally thinks of the earth's
crust as being exceedingly. solid and
stable. except perhaps In volcanic re-
gions where earthquakes are Of fire.
quent occurrence. As matter Of
fact. however. the shell Of our planet
is extremely sensitive and most deli
cately balanced. so that under the In
f1uences of causes that seem altogeth-
er Insignificant in comparison with the
gigantic bulk and weight Of the earth
1t yields and fuctuates In most
amazing manner.
TO an eye so placed as to be capa-
BILE of taking In Mt one comprehensive
glance the whole round outline Of the
globe 1t would not appear Of precisely
the same shape during an entire day
or even an hour. Most Of the changes
referred to are, of course. very slight
when compared with the size of the
earth itself.
The operation Of atmospheric and
oceanic and other similar causes is
continually bringing about changes in
the shape of the earth's crust. One
Of the most interesting of the agencies
whereby such alterations are effected
is the carrying power of rivers. Wher-
ever a great quantity Of sand and
gravel is being brought down from the
interior Of continent and poured into
the sea. as, for instance, along the
northwestern coast of Europe or the
gulf coast Of the United States, the
weight of the earth's crust Is slowly
increasing. and the consequence is
seen In the gradual subsistence of the
shore
Such sinking has been going OH
| for thousands Of years along the North
| sea coast and on the continental side
of the British channel. A similar de-
preston is occurring on the eastern
edge of our own country and along
| the gulf of Mexico. 1t has been esti-
mated that the gulf coast is sinking
at the rate of nearly two feet in a
century.
Corresponding elevations must, OF
course, occur elsewhere. And to these
slow changes In the level of the earth's
crust earthquakes are due as well as
to the more violent local disturbances
created by volcanic action.-Harper's
