EARTH'S SURFACE HAS BEEN TILTING, SCIENTIST LEARNS rather Odenbach DIhcovciu Part ol tho United States Has ' Taken u Slant In Direction of Canada. Cleveland. The earth's surface has been tilting since 10 a. m. Christ mas Day. Father Odenbach, a learned seismo logist and astronomer, reports that the tilting In being recorded and measured by the delicate Instruments in St. Ignatius' Observatory. The tilting so far has been 1-16 of an Inch in 1000 feet, so do not be alarmed; the vases will not be tilted from the mantelpiece or the pictures set awry. The tilting Is from the United States toward Canada, but this coun try is not likely to slide Into the Do minion. The tilting affects a floe, or giant triangle, with a line from Newbury port, Mass.. through Elmlra, N. Y., and Cincinnati for its base and its apex in Canada. Cleveland stands on this floe. It is as a giant under the earth was pushing it In at the upper end and another pushing It out at the southern etl. Such tlltlngs are usually due to some knon cases, Father Odenbach says, such as the piling up of an im mense weight on the southern shores of the Great Lakes. But he can as- considers that recent earthquakes in the Middle and Far West are only one result of it. Any sort of weather Is peculiar or unusual to some people. BREAKS UP A COLD IK SEVERAL HOURS A FEW DOSES END MOST SEVERE GRIPPE MISERY There is not one grain of quinine In Pape's Cold Compound, which, when taken ever two hours, until three consecutive doses are taken, will surely end the grippe and break up the most severe cold, either in the head, chest, back, stomach or limbs. It promptly relieves tho most mis erable headache, dullness, head and nose stuffed up, feverlahness, sneez ing, sore throat, running of the nose, catarrhal affections, soreness, , stiff ness and rheumatic twinges. Pape's Cold Compound Is the result of three years' research at a cost of more than fifty thousand dollars, and contains no quinine which we have conclusively demonstrated Is not effective In the treatment of colds or grippe. Take this harmless Compound as directed, with the knowledge that there is no other medicine made any where else In the world which will cure your: pold or end grippe misery as promptly and without any other assistance J or bad after-effects as a 25-cent package of Pape's Cold Com pound, which any druggist in the world can iupply.
