MORE UPHEAVALS MAY COME
Abundant Proof That Natures Resiss-
less Forces Have Not Been For
ever Quieted.

The Wasatch mountains, once a
level plain and formed through some
gigantic upheaval of nature, are still
restless, showing that the process of
nature which carved the peaks and
canyons is still in progress. During
the long period Of slow earth move
ment which made these mountains,
hat-lying parallel beds of rock were To-
cally turned on edges. crumpled and
folded in wonderfully intricate man
ner.
These upturned and crumpled rocks
are well shown in Ogden canyon. The
west face of the Wasatch range is be-
lieved to mark the plane of normal
earth fault at nearly vertical crack
in the earths crust, the rocks on the
east side of which went up or those
on the west side went down A num-
ber of parallel faults were developed
close together and the broken pieces
of the earth's crust between them were
pushed up, the rocks on one side OF
each crack riding up over those on
the other side until the great noun
tain range was formed.

WONDERFUL INSECT is FLY
Nuisance, and a Menace to Human
Life, but Well Worth the Most
Careful Study.

Kill fly, but study him. He is a
wonderful creature, though menace
and a nuisance, writes Garrett P.
Serviss. His muscles are as strong
as steel his nerve action is as quick
as lightning. If eou were proportion
ately as strong as a fly you could
seize a beam over your head with your
hands, and, with two tons of iron
fastened to your feet, easily raise your
self, together with the attached
weight, from the floor.
This calculation is no mere guess;
it is based upon experiments made by
the Belgian naturalist, Felix Plateau.
WHO harnessed insects and small ami
mails of many kinds. in very ingenious
ways, to ascertain their strength.
Likewise, if fly were as big as a
man, and retained his relative
strength, he could kill tigers with his
hands and split asunder the jaws of
lions with much more ease than Sam
son did.
If you were as quick as fly you
could let an oncoming express train,
travelling mile minute, come within
a foot Oh your nose and then dodge it.
Strike at a fly that is lazily circling
with a playmate before your eyes and
observe with what nonchalant ease he
avoids your blow and instantly returns
to his play.

RED ALWAYS DANGER SIGNAL
Excellent Reasons Why That Color
Should Have Been Selected for
the Purpose.

Everywhere you turn, red is used to
signify danger.
AS tail-lamps to motors and trains,
lat torn-up streets, red lights universal.
ily announce "Danger!"
Why is red used in preference to any
other color? There is very good and
sufficient reason for this. Red, no mat
ter how distant, never ceases to ap-
pear red. 1t retains its color better
than any other, and plays no illusion
ary tricks with your eyesight
Enjoying normel weather conditions,
the ranges of colored lights in use on
the railways are recognized as fol
lows:
Red, 31s miles; green, 21s to 3
miles; lunar white, 2 to 21s miles. 1t
will be seen that red is far ahead OF
its fellows. Green, it's nearest rival,
is, of course, the color of which ma.
ture makes such extensive use. Conse-
euently, green is much more liable to
become absorbed in any background
than red.
That is why red takes pride o.
place.-Answers

New Discovery in iron.

Very pure iron in tubes and other
forms is French factory's electrolytic
product from a basis Of ordinary cast
iron. To cause a deposition of iron on
the surface, the negative pole is ro-
tated In solution of ferrous salt,
which is kept neutral by iron turn
ings placed at the bottom of the tank,
and by adding iron oxide as depolarl-
zer. The electrolytic iron deposited.
very hard at first, becomes soft and
mallea5le, with the giving off of some
gas, on annealing. A rod being used
as core, iron pipes are produced direct,
and the production of sheet iron, with
out rolling, is expected and is looked
upon as very valuable for electrical
machinery. -.

Practically all the modern safe de-
posits possess time locks. These
timepieces operate from one hour to
three days. When the doors are closed
the timepiece is set, and on no account
can the doors be reopened until the
clock has run its allotted time. The
other week a clerk overwound the
timepiece at a well-known safe de-
posit, with the result that the renters
could not gain access to their safes
until late in the afternoon.
Anyone, of course, can hire safe
in a public safe deposit by paying the
necessary rent. Each renter is sup
piled with his own key, and if he
loses it his safe has to be broken open,
for the company does not possess
duplicate keys.

German Attack on First Line Trenches Of French

Again the air fills with that oily.

part of the oncoming mass. But every
thing seems to disappear and melt be-
fore the gaze like some specter army
which stare diSSolNeS.
The sergeant stands at tension and
his eyeballs bulge. for they are now
near the outer edge of the barbed wire
He sees that this has been cut to pieces
by the shell fire. He has no rife, but
he has a pistol. and he fires load after
load into the mass with delirious en-
ergy. Artillery fire on both sides has
stopped. The quarters now are too
close for the range of cannon
unexpectedly the mass halts. The
sergeant. thinking they are about TO
turn back. sends up frantic shout.
Similar cries run down the line. But
from without there is also shouting.
They are human sounding yells.

The sergeant feels il in the form of fine
spray that sinks into his clothes and
fills the trench. everything in it, and
smells like gasoline. Nov those over
the parapet throw over little objects
that burst into fla in he trench.
Instantly flames leap from all quar-
ters. The trench is burning up. The
flames dart along in the direction OF
the sergeant at almost lncredlble
speed and he runs before them In his
wake follow beings who run too. hu-
man torches shriekins in agony. AT
first their numbers are legion. but they
drop behind. and now only half dozen
men still untouched run before.
They take the first branch in the
trench in the direction of the rear aud
are out of it. But they retreat some
distance for the whole first line is a
seething furnace. The machine guns
have stopped and there is no noise eN-
cept shriekS that pierce the air and
cries that seem to mock.
The sergeant and his compa MONS run
back to the second trench. There will
be others there, enough possibly TO
hold the attackers back. He knows of
several ma chine guns.
Meanwhile the flames in the first line
have almost died out. But the Ger
mans avoid the trench by jumping over
it and come to the second line.

E1HE high-keyed strain of expect
ancy among the soldiers during
the heavy. tense fighting of the
. recent months seems TO be
over. and there is apparent relief
among the various regiments of the
sector. For the past five weeks there
have been no attacks to speak of up
in the trenches and word repeatedly
goes around the fighting in these
parts is finished for the winter.
The soldiers here are IF the crack
regiments of France. They are young
men, clean cut and cultured, hailing
from Paris and the north. With the
long lull in the fighting the set lines
in their drawn faces lessen in depth
redness creeps into their cheeks and
they are beginning to take life after
the easier manner of former days
With long experience at the front they
have gradually added what comforts
are possible to their quarters in town
and the trenches and are settling down
for the winter
