Mill' EARTHQUAKES?
t
r-nllE CATASTROPHE in the Me
u Iteiranean has revived a discus-
alon of the possibility of foretell
2ag earthquakes. How far any warn
2as of such a disaster is likely to be
iceded is perhaps open to question,
"brst the feasibility of giving one cer
iainly de-serves consideration. With
fccreasfng knowledge concerning the
erases of seismic disturbance, per
Japs a trustworthy forecast will so mo
day be practicable. The utmoat that
conservative geologists are willing to
say today is that certain woll defined
regions are much more susceptible
tSran otbGrs, but to determine just
arhes the forces at work' will mani
fest themselves is another matter.
There is also something like agree
ment concerning the causes of earth
quake. It is conceded that a great
many of these shocks are due to
afrmses" set up in the crust of the
arth. One group of experts attrib
ute the stresses to the generation of
vast quantities of steam by the leak
age of water Into the heated inte
rior; another to the shrlnkag3 of the
tfArth In consequence of radiation;
irtill another to the transfer of ma
terial from one region to another,
and a fourth to astronomical influ
ence. Xo one of the first three ex
planations of the internal strain
vould afford much help In fixing the
titan when an outbreak might be
vxpect'ed, but the last would, If, It
srere correct.
The notion that a tide in the mol
iec Interior of the globe Is raised
i&y the sun and moon has long had
a few adherents. Among them was
a Frenchman, Alexis Perrey, who
ucado a comparison between the
jJates of 15,000 earthquakes and tho
occasions when tho moon was In
iluo right position to exert the
strongest pull. Ills figures showed
Til:t seemed to bo a trifling prepon
derance (about 2" per cent) of fa
Torablo lunar dates over tho unfa
Torablo ones. On limiting his study
la southern Italy he found a slightly
sreator proportion. Unfortunately,
Bowover, a compatriot of Perrey, De
"hnnay by name, followed up tho In
quiry so as to Includo 110,000 earth
tfUAlLUg and found that tho excess of
auoeks when tho moon was In tho
right position over those when It
jr.'ifl In tho wrong position "dwin
dled awny to almost nothing," nc

Ask a woman: What's a man?

Gentle sir and sweetest madam,

Why today you scorn each other
And tomorrow bill and coo?

They can tell, and so can you!

How One Doctor Successfully Treats
Pneumonia.
"In treating pneumonia," says Dr.
W. J. Smith, of Sanders. Ala., "the
only remedy I use for the lungs is
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. While
of course I would treat other symp
toms with different medicines, I have
used this romedy many times in my
medical practice and have yet failed
to find a caso where It has not con
trolled tho trouble. I have used it
myself as has also my wife for coughs
and colds repeatedly, and I mosc
willingly and cheerfully recommend
It as superior to any other cough
remedy to my kuowledge." For sale
