THE END OF THE WOULD.
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.

friction, thus verifying the Biblical
prophecy. As. however, the process of
cooling down .entirely will take some
billions of years, the nervous person

Ptpsin, Saliva and Qastrte Juice.
rermln. the principal agent in the dl
gextion of food, Is a powerful solvent
stored up In the walls of the stomach
and only poured forth when its assist
ance Is needed. 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

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.

flarrylng For Money Gets a Man Into
Serious Trouble.
Stringer had married bis wife for bo
ther reason In the world except that
she had money, though he lied to her
like a pirate, and she thought It was a
love match. Naturally wedded life did
not agree with him, or, rather, It was
not as sweet aa be had hoped, and
Stringer was getting the bitterest end
of It One day he met a friend.
"By George," he exclaimed, "that
wife of mine will drive me crazy!"
"What's the matter now!" Inquired
the friend consolingly.'
"Too know my wife has $150,000,
and yon know I married her for It and
got it There la no use lying about
that any further." ;
The friend bowed in acquiescence.
"Well, do you know that she has di
vided the whole tblng up Into sums of
$100 each and proposes to have me ar
rested 1,500 times for obtaining money
under false pretenses? : Think of that,
will you? Did you ever bear of such a
woman?" And Stringer went Into a
spasm.

"Why is It?" he demanded, with
hopeful eagerness. '
"It Is because you have always in
