WHAT VOLCANOES THROW UP
Water, Dust, Mud, pumice, Glass and
Granite Among Products Of the
Plumbers.

A volcano-let US say Stromboli,
which very frequently makes LOT Of
trouble elects materials OF various
kinds.
One OF these Is water. II Is the
last thing We should expect burning
mountain TO produce. but, as INIT
ter Of fact. volcanoes vomit enormous
quantities OF water, formed by the
cooling and consequent condensation
of gases rising through the vent pipe.
Volcanic dust, thrown high into the
air during an eruption, Is so finely d.
yded that much of il will float in the
upper levels OF the atmosphere for
years. lis particles seem mostly TO be
minute bubbles. hollow inside.
Together with water volcanoes emit
vast quantities of mud. which, hard
ening into rock, form what is called
"tuff'--a frlable material which In
parts of our own West covers great
areas 10 depth OF thousands of feet.
A familiar volcanic product Is puni-
ice, which Is so porous, and therefore
so light in weight, that II will float on
water. Another is obsidIan. or vol
canic glass" n substance of the same
chemical composition as pumice, but
extremely hard being Of high density.
Typical of the "eruptive" rocks, rep
reSenting material thrown up from the
depths, is granite, Such rocks are
practically impervlous TO water, where
as the sedimentary rocks-sandstoncsr
iimestones and shales-are sufficiently
porous TO allow water TO percolate
through them. II is these sedimentary
rocks that contain the so-caled
pools of petroleum. usually with wa.
ter underlying the oil.

A pesslmist Blue Monday thought
by the late Senator John J. ingalls, of
Kansas. Without trial or opp0r-
tunity Tor defense, with no knowledge
OF the accuser or the nature and
cause OF the accusation; without be.
inc confronted with the witnesses
against us, we have been summoned
to the bar OF life and condemned to
death. There is no writ OF error or
review. There is neither excupation
nor appeal The tender mother cries
passionately for mercy for her first
born, but there is no clemency. The
craven felon sullenly prays for a
moment In which to be aneled, bat
there is no reprieye, The soul helit
klasgly beats its .swings against the
bars. shudders and disappears. Hill
manity itself Is destined TO extinction
Sooner or later II is the instruction OF
science that the energy OF the earth
will be expended and it viii become
incapable OF supporting life. A group
OF feeble and pall!d survivors in some
sheltered valley in the tropics will be-
hold the sun sink below the horizon
aud the pitlless stars glitter in the
midnight sky. The last man will per-
ish and the sun VIII rise upon an
earth without an inhabitant. Its at
mosphere, its sea, its life and heat
will vanish, and the planet VIII be an
idle cinder, uselessly spinning in It's
orbit. If the only object of creation
is destruction, if infnity is the theatre
of an uninterrupted series of irrepar.
able calamities- if the final cause OF
life is death. then time is an inex.
plicablo tragedy and eternity an il.

One OF the exports from Japan

for American cities, "Jlnkgo7 is one OF
the park commissioners standbys
Washington, District of Columbia, has
adopted 1t as IT'S official street tree
whatever that means. Because II is
so hardy under city conditions-that
explains its popularity, In part. It is
also large and tall tree, peerless for
shade
It's name has proved almost impreg
nable TO western tongues. Some one
has said that TO get two tree experts
who will agree on the spelling, "you
would have TO 20 to Japan--and there
they dodge the issue and draw "A pie

jinka-are few occidental variations
Of the puzzle. Many tactful persons
have adopted "Maldenhair Tree" as a
way outfits long-petioled leaves are
quite the shape of the so-called
maidenhair fern OF American woods
Although classified botanically among

A dead man IN Burma always pays
his fare across the mystic river Of
death with 4 small coin which he car
ries in his mouth. The curse that

ably comes from the fact that most
of the men of this trade have no
scrupleS about digging the poor

lieyed that this causes lie spirits OF
the disturbed ones to return to this
