Formation Of Worlds.

There are two hypotheses in reference
to the condition OF the matter Of the
universe at the moment when science
begins its discussion Of the formation
Of the worlds Both these agree that
the matter was in nebulous condition.
AS Professor Young says: This does
not assume that matter was created
I'm a -nebulous condition. AS the egg
may be taken as the starting point for
the life history of the animal, so the
nebula may be taken us the starting
point for the life history Of the planet
airy slstem" On one theory the nebula
was in the form of q heated gas; on
the other, it was a cloud Of cold me-
teoric dust. This latter many astron-
Omers think is more likely to be true.

ROAR or THE ARCTIC.
sullon Thunder Of the eaiss and che
aVoioes Of the ioe.v

9ullan Thunder Of the Gaies and the
aVoiecs Of the ice.r
Most Of us cherish the idea that IN
the far reaches Of the Arctic circle
there prevails an everlasting death
like stiffness. But those who have
spent much time in the far north as
sure us that that region is far from
being silent, although so little life Is
manifest for the greater part Of the
year.
On polar seas the ice, though thick
and solid as granite, is hardly ever still.
There are tides IN the arctic, and
these lift and lower the huge iceflelds,
causing them to give out all manner
OF noises. Even as late as November
the pack viii wake up without warn
ing and pile itself in huge heaps with
indescribable crashings, groanings and
roarings. Peary speaks OF the ''rabid
roar" Of the 'tumbling chaos Of ice
blocks" His Eslldmos were terribly
frightened and set up weird howlings
The dogs whined and barked, and alto
gether the noise was terrific. Every
arctic explorer has given similar &C
counts.
The movements Of the ice-the grad,
ual crowding and pressing, bending
and pushing, the breaking OF the
masses OF snow lying at the "ice foot"
have given rise to the expression Of
explorers. "The voices Of the ice" It
may be that one will hear a low sing
ing. splashing or grumbllng, alteFnat-.
ing with various other sounds, crack.
ing and swapping. These sound irreg-
ularly from a great distance, like a
confusion Of human voices, the racket
OF a railway train or the skurrying OF
a sledging party. Then, again, The
noises are such as to cause the ex-'
plorer to fancy he hears the steps and
yoices Of various species of animals
Spring Is the nolsiest time Ia the POI,
lar seas. Mcclure Of the Investigator
compared the breaking up Of the ice
at that season to heavy thunder or the
sound of great guns. Another writer
likened the sound Of the breaking Ice
Zoe to that produced by a volcanic
eruption.
Moreover, the air in the arctic re-
gions Is seldom absolutely still. Gales
are frequent. The winter winds, ac-
cording to Peary, blow with almost
unimaginable fury. On one occasion
in the cabins OF the Roosevelt the
sound resembled that of some gigantic
power plant, everything vibrating to
the pulsation Of the machinery. The
whole atmosphere was filed with the
deep, sullen roar Of the wind. and so
thick was the cloud Of snow picked up
and swept forward on the wings OF the
gale that powerful lamps were invisi-
BILE ten feet away.
On high ground, such as that Of in.
ner Greenland, the wind is never still.
Nansen tells of the constant hiss Of
the breeze laden with tiny bits OF ice,
which flowed along knee high like
shining white river glittering In the
pale arctic sunlight.
Nor is there lack Of sounds caused
by animal life. In the arctic may Of
ten be heard the baying Of wolves and
the barking OF seal, while in the sum.
mer the harsh cry Of sea birds echoes
along the faces Of the cliffs -Harpers
Weekly.

BURNING WOMEN ALIVE.
A Punishment That Was Abolished In
England In 1890.

A Punishment That Was Abolished In
England In 1870.
The horrible punishment Of burning
women alive seems to have existed In
Saxon England, but perhaps only in
the case Of slaves. Under the Norman
rulers any woman, bond or free, who
killed her husband was burned alive,
and the same punishment for this
crime and also for high treason and
even for coming and other minor Of
fenses continued or arose from time
to time through the second and third
periods until 1t was abolished by act
Of parliament in 1900, the last actual
execution OF this kind having, however,
taken place six years earlier.
The whipping OF women for various
Offenses continued even later. Public
, whipping was not abandoned until
1917, and cases Of private whipping Oc-
CURED as late as 1920.
There can be no doubt, we think,
that the savage human Instinct Of
cruelty had something to do with the
barbarous punishments above mention
ed. AS the old Roman public longed
for the carnage OF the circus. as the
Spanish pOpulace crowded to the auto
da-fe In the hourishing days Of the In
quisltion, so the lower perhaps not
only the lower strata Of English ma
tlonality took delight in witnessing tor.
lures which in all probability were de-
vlsed and kept up partly for their en-
tertainment. Judge Jeffreys in SEN
fencing a woman to be whipped is re-
ported to have said:
"Hangman, charge yOu to pay par
ticular attention to this lady. scourge
her till her blood runs down. 1t Is
Christmas time. cold time for madam
to strip. See that you burn her shOul-
ders thoroughly. ."-Cornhill Magazine.

TWO QUEER ANIMALS.

on the sidshill creepor.
Paul Smith, the famous Adirondack
guide and story teller, once met his
match. There was an Englishman,
supposedly with the proverblal Eng
lish sense Of humor, who went to
Smiths for some deer shooting. The
morning after his arrival he started
out with a gun alone. As he left the
camp Paul told him to beware OF the
side hill creepers."
Whats a side hill creeperTi asked
the Engllshman.
"Well." said Paul. ITS an animal
that lives on the side Of a hill, and as
It's right legs are long and It's left legs
short It can only run on sloping
ground. They are very ferocious, and
II one starts after you you must run
up or down hill, as on account OF its
deformity It cannot catch you when
you do that"
The Englishman shouldered bis gun
and went out. About night time he re-
turned. The guide said to him. "well.
see you lodged the creepers. all
right"
mo, ] met one" said the English
man.
"YesT said Paul. "How did you
get away from himT"
81 ran uphill" said the Englishman.
"You shouldn't have done that You
could make better time running down
bill"
"I know IT," said the Engllshman,
"but you see met hooked tail bear,
and just naturally had to run up
hill"
"How's thatT' asked Paul.
"Well. you know when a hooked tan
bear gets started running the only
way he can stop ia to wrap hts hooked
tau around a tree. II had run down
hill he could have stopped, but when
ran uphill why every time he hook
ed his tail around a tree he just tum-
bled over backward, and so got
away"
Paul owned himself beaten and
when the Englishman left refused to
accept any money for his board.-New
