A Thsory That It Will Come by Fire t Caused by Friction. , Aa to tbe length of Ume tbe earth Is likely to last, tbe calculations are that It will nut cease to be active for a good many millions of years, such activity not, however, necessarily supposing that life as we know It now will al ways be possible, tbe eventuality of a universal ice age being always a con tingency that may occur again ia tbe bUtory of tbe globe. It is Interesting to note that In this connection a Swedish mystic called Stromberg bas declared that tbe world would never know another ice age, but that It was now running out its coura to tbe end. Its existence, be declared, would endure as long aa fire burned in t'be earth's bowels that Is, until the whole mans shall have become solidi fied. The Internal fires, he said, pro vided tbe link which maintained tbe earth in tbe aun'a sphere of attraction. When this attraction shall fall, tbe earth, ' according to the Swede, will cease to revolve and will fall away. only to disappear by Are caused by friction, thus verifying the Biblical prophecy. As. however, the process of cooling down .entirely will take some billions of years, the nervous person will note that there Is really no imme diate - cause for alarm.

When pure,-this fluid la perfectly neutral, neither, acid nor alkaline, and appears to be unable to exert any "action without tbe presence of an acid. Such acid is supplied in the gastric Juice, secreted by the gas tric follicles covering tbe coating of the stomach. Tbe saliva is merely for the purpose of moistening the food, thus preparing it for the action of the pepsin and gastric fluids. New lork American. . . Shawl. " An Indian, or a Persian shawl used to be considered one of the finest femi nine possessions in tbe world, and they were , handed down from mother to daughter as prized heirlooms. But now if you gave a young woman even a very elegnnt shawl, costing possibly hundreds of dollars, aa many did, she would turn up her beautiful nose at it and if she used it at all would make a portiere out of it for her cozy corner. She would never think of wearing it, even if it were the only thing she had. Argonaut ' . . ' ' That Voles.
