SOURCE OF WATER
Artesian Variety Comes From
Molten Streams.
Australian Chemist Gives Reason for
tis eelief-He Makes Discoveries
That Prove Of Value TO Cuitl.
vators Of Land.

Sydney. N s. W.--One OF the most
remarkable features OF Australian ge.
ography Is the presence OF vast un-
dergrOund seas which cover enor.
nous areas In Queensland and New
South Wales. the smaller ones in Vic
toria. and along the extreme western
coast. The problems connected with
their origin, constitution and distribu.
ton are among the most interesting
known to science. while there seems
some ground for the claim that our
great artesian system. with all It's
mineral contents. promises to be OF
more value to Australia than all her
other mineral resources combined.
X. Symmonds. n chemist attached to
the public works department of New
South Wales. who has made this sub.
1ect his own. has Just had book pub.
lished by the department which is
full OF original research and startling
conclusions and in which he deals ex.
haus;ively with the whole question
from every point Of view He dif.
fers entirely from the recent inter.
state conference on artesian waters.
which unhesitatingly pronounced in
favor OF the meteoric origin OF the
water. !. O.. that Is, that the rainfall
has percolated the porous beds under
the influence OF hydraulic conditions.
The diminished flow In many OF the
wells. which has been so frequently
noted OF late. was attributed by the
conference to the continual draining
OF the supply by the wells, which have
been put down in much greater mum.
Der or late years. and therefore, they
recommended that some OF them
should be closed down.
On the other hand. Mr.. Symnonds
holds that the supply Is plutonic. or.
IN other words. that It comes from
the molten lavas In the interior OF the
earth, IL appears that when crys-
talline rock like granite Is heated to
redness In vacuo enormous volumes
OF gas and vapor are given off. which
accounts for a great deal OF volcanic
action. for the presence Of the large
amount OF gas found In artesian wa.
ter. and apparently for much OF the
water itself The fact that there is
very little common salt and other
chlorine compounds in the artesian
waters at the lower levels. the amount
diminishing with the depth, is regard.
ed as strongly supporting the plutonic
origin, as. II It were meteoric, the wa.
ter would absorb mere instead OF
less salt in Its passage through
the soil
Several other facts are adduced in
support OF the conclusion that the ar
tesian waters have been expelled in
state Of vapor from molten masses
OF rock In the interior OF the earth
such as the high temperatures Of
much OF the deeper water, the large
quantities Of gas imprisoned therein,
the ascent Of the water. which Is so
noticeable a feature in connection
with the bores. being attributed by
Mr.. Symmonds to the presence OF the
gas and Its expansive force.

Reply to w, A,

On which hand and which finger is
the engagement ring placed? How
does the man get the ring so the girl
will be surprised? Is it customary
to use the ring ceremony, and IL so,
who places the ring on finger, the
bridegroom or the minister? Is 1t
required that the girl go to the court.
house to get the license with the
man? Is the little finger called the
first flnger?-W. A.
The engagement ring is placed
upon the finger next to the little
finger on the left hand; 1t is called
the fourth finger" or wedding ring
finger. If a girl Is to be engaged and
they generally are asked the moment.
Gus question before the ring is pur.
chased. she should give you her meas.
ure. and II would be better to ask
her what kind of a token she pre-.
ferred, as most girls have their own
IDEAS as to the kind of ring they
like. The ring ceremony is usually
customary. and the clergyman who
performs the ceremony will give full
instructions as to how it is done.
do not think 1t is necessary that the
bride-elect should 20 to the court.
