This life is but a changeless rut
Wherein we share common lot;
It is the Same for all Of us.
Doors are held open; then are shut;
It's really monot-
OnOus,
Wee learned to write it 1912;
Next year the same mistakes we shah
Make ere we've journeyed on this far.
With WEAKNESS again we shelve
The gay insurance cal
endar.
The Christmas bills are mostly paid,
And as of old, we now commence
To think of Easter hat and dress;
The usual remarks are made
About attire's expens-
iveness.
Full soon folk will be leaving town,
For fashion then will bid them como
Where gaiety is quite the thing.
The mercury, which now is down,
Will, like all else, be sum-
mering.
And then will come the days of fall
When sudden frosts will bite right in
And sting US like an arrows barb
The while they suddenly recall
To us the thought of win
ter garb.
And so our lives so round and round,
Returning to the selfsame spot
Through the same times Of peace and
fuss
The same old silence, same old sound
It's really monot-
OnOus.

About the Furnace.

morist at the dinnertable, why is a
furnace
Il have often wondered interrupt
ed the boarder who occupies the cold
est room on the top floor.
The natural-bor humorist playfully
threw piece of oleomargarine at him
and resumed: why is a furnace q
paradox?
AS hardly any of the boarders cared
anything about It he was allowed to
80 on with the inevitable answer:
Because It is hottest when it is
coaled."

Account Published by United States
Geological Survey of the Quake at
Yakutat Bay-one of Ten Greatest
Earthquakes in History

-el ssiH0c~NVS III iilSSSly
The United States Geological Sur
|vey has just published an account of
one Of the ten greatest earthquakes
| of historic times-that in the Yaku-
tat Bay region of Alaska. Although
there is no especial relation between
earthquakes and volcanic eruptions,
| the recently reported earthquake at
| Fairbanks as we'll as the activity
among Alaskan volcanoes gives per-
haps added interest to this account of
a natural phenomenon of another
class.
The Yakutat Bay earthquake oc-
Cured on September 8, 1889, and was
followed during the next three weeks
by many loss violent shocks. The area
OF greatest intensity lay among the
TANKS Of the ST. Elias Range, in a re
gion of high mountains and superb
glaciers, and the movement was ac-
companied by enormous avalanches
and rock slides. This is a vivid dem.
onstration that the growth of noun
tains is still in progress. At some
places in the region the land subsidized
and forests were submerged. At most
places, however, the land rose, and
many points which before had lain
ho10" ~ ol>-
T. it. Barnacles which had lived in sea
water were found AZ feet above sea
level. The study of the effects Of this
earth movement was undertaken by
the late Ralph S. Tarr, of Cornell Uni
versity, and Lawrence Martin, of the
University of Wisconsin, and their
report of the work has just been pub
|lished as Professional Paper 50 of the
United States Geological Survey,
with preface by G. K. Gilbert.
In addition to making an exhaus-
tive study of the movements of the
land which took place in the Yakutat
Bay region and of the effects of the
earthquake upon the many glaciers of
the region, the writer's amassed a
great fund of information in regard
to the intensity of the quake through
out the whole area within which it
was sensible and recorded the testi-
mony of many witnesses The shock
was felt at distances of $40 and 1900
miles in opposite directions from
4akutat Bay, and the area Of the re-
gion over which the tremblings were
felt is more than 100000 square
miles. This gives the Yakutat Bay
earth quake a place among the very
greatest earthquakes of historic times.
The other great shocks, without ex-
ception, resulted in heavy loss Of life,
the number Of persons killed reaching
in one Of them the enormous total of
over 10000. The Yakutat Bay shock
was fortunately free from fatalities,
not because it was less severe than
than the others, but on account Of the
sparsely settled character Of the re-
gion in which it occurred.
This report The earthquakes at
Yakutat Bay, Alaska, in September,
1899"-is illustrated with halftone
views showing the effects of the earth
quake, maps, and seismograms Of the
shock as recorded at places as far dis
tant as Batavia, Java; Cape Town,
South Africa; and Catania, Italy. A
