Cold Weather Due to
Dust in Atmosphere?

Seeing that volcanoes fling out
molten lava and burn up everything
near them, it may seem a queer con-
tradiction to suggest that they can
cause cold weather, but the explana-
ton is this-volcanoes throw up vast
masses of fine dust which floats in the
upper atmosphere.
Dust cuts off an amazing amount of
the suns heat, and it has always been
noticed that after any really big erup-
ton or series of eruptions there is
period of cold, dull weather In
Humphreys book, "Physics of the
Air" a table of these is given, begin
ming with the frightful outbreak of
Asama, in Japan, in 1888, and ending
with the eruptions of Tomboro in 1872
There were three cold years after the
first eruption and four after the sec
ond
Some experts declare that the great
Ice ages through which our planet has
passed may have been caused by erup-
tons on a huge scale which cut off
the life-giving rays of the sun and re-
duced the temperature of the whole
earth.

Might Work Injustice
on Deserving Ghosts

This is a callous and unbelieving
age. A little correspondence in a con-
temporary on Christian ghosts has
produced an assurance that it is per-
fectly easy to distinguish between a
genuine ghost and a mere hallucina-
ton.
All you have to do is to squirt at
the apparition; if the poor ghost is
really there "the distortion of the line
of sight will cause it to be seen dou-
ble." But if the apparition remains
unaltered after this treatment it is
proof that it is really an hallucination
from within and not something which
exists outside the percipient.
This habit of pulling ugly faces at
what may be perfectly good ghosts,
hardworking and deserving in every
sense of the words, will be deprecated
by all courteous and right thinking hu-
mans, the Manchester (Eng.) Guar
dian comments. Moreover, the choice
between a double ghost and single
one does not exhaust the possibilities
from this harsh test. The apparition
may give an eldritch shrek and van
ish clean away. And what will that
Prove? Simply that the experimenter
has squinted so vilely at the visitor
that he has frightened the poor thing
out of its wits.
