That there has been dssension

the men on the night shift for some
time, no doubt exists. The princi-

Lets Quit Talking and
Go Over to See What
We Can Do"

The discussion had been carried
to some length and with considera-
BILE fervor on both sides, when sud-
denly the more practical of the two
disputants stopped and said:
There is just such family liv-
ing in the next block: let us quit
talking and go over there and see
what we can do"
Some years ago there was held
a public gathering for the purpose
of mutual congratulation over a
political victory which had just
been gained.
One of the speakers awaited of
the opportunity to air himself in
expatiating upon the means neces-
sary to be used in order to secure
the fruits Of victory and to make
the victory permanent.
He had rambled on in a canter-
ing way for almost an hour by
the presiding officers watch, when
he suddenly drew himself together
and declared, But this is not to
be accomplished by talking, but
by action" a remark which was
vociferously applauded, during

Scientists Support the
Theory World Is Not
Immortal.

Science gives unquestionaple
support to this view. and every
new discovery seems to make more
certain the conclusion that our
world cannot last forever.
But there are two opposite the
cries as to the manner In which
the earth, as the abode OF life, will
come to an end. One assumes that
its destruction win be by heat and
the other that it will be by cold.
The discovery of the mysterious
substance radium. which possesses
the property of continually giving
off heat. has impaired renewed
impetus TO the first OF these theo-
ries, which, II may be remarked,
as matter OF curiosity, Is In &C
cord with the Bible prophecies.
THE heavens shall roll up as Il
scroll. and the earth shall dissolve
with fervent heat"
A most ominous account of the
part that radium may play In the
ultimate destruction OF the earth
is given In a book by Professor J.
Jolly, entitled, "Radioactivity and
Geology" II you feel any curios.

serve on its surface we conclude
that there very we'll may be. II
there is more, then the melting
Will be accomplished sooner. If
there is less, it will take longer.
But the Quantity would have to be
very much less than it probably Is
in order that the heat produced
could continue to be radiated away
without a disastrous rise In the
temperature of the globe.
The same reasoning carried
further leads to the conclusion that
the earth may have been alter
nately melted and cooled off sew
eral times in the past, When it is
In molten state the free radiation
from the surface produces crust,
which thickens to a certain point,
and then the inner accumulation
of heat brings about another melt
ing from the interior outward.
The phenomenon of new stars is
appealed to as lending support to
this view, Again and again astron-
omers have seen a new star burst
forth at some point in the sky.
Generally it has been assumed
that they are due to collisions In
the heavens, but 1t is. perhaps,
equally probable that they arise
from the accumulation of heat in
some dark celestial body. causing
1t to flame out into incandescence.
Other stars are known to have
disappeared. and their disappear
ance may have been caused by the
cooling off of their surfaces.

end is based on the fact that a
particle OF radium keeps itself con-
tinually, by some inner process, at
a temperature nearly three de-
grees above that of its surround
ings. In an hour the radium
emits enough heat to raise its own
weight of water from the freezing
to the boiling point. And this
store of heat is so vast that sin
gle atom of radium will continue
to give it forth at an unvarying
rate for about $500 years,
