The surface of the earth can h compared t the top of a barrel of isphält, hard and rigid through ond through, seamed and cracked on th surface by the elements. For ten miles in a straight line below the surface the earth is probably dry and hard, of a rock substance. Tho pressure of this substance upon the neated center of the earth keaps it

from getting hotter than it is, just as you can keep water from boiling by an appropriately sufficie it pressure. The fact that there is eteam in volcanic eruptions is the leakagt of the interior pressure of heat in the earth. The character of matter in the center of the earth or its immediate environment must be something like pumice stone spongy porous, light because when th earth's interior matter is melted in the high temperatures that are there it dissolves, and there is considerable water in it that escapei through volcanic craters in steam.

Why Elsio Was Sent to Sed.

While little Elsie's elder sifltcr, Kay, was entertaining her latest AC Suißition, a most dignified and gn el young man, in the parlor Elfili waa relegated to the dining room if play with her doll. This particular one, the possessor of a kid body and a bisque head, hwä been somewhat ailing of late, owing to the fact that its head was gradually becoming detached and iti pivotal eyes refused to perform their functions of opening and closing. After considerable probing for the cause of tho trouble Elsie made the discovery that thert was something inside of it and finally succeeded in extracting a largt roll of tightly curled hair. A m6 ment later she burst into the narior in a great state of excitement and shouted: Tity sakes ! No wonder Dorothy was sick! Lok what was in her itummick ! She must have swallowed Sister May's rat!" Pittsbnrf Gazette. - Left Til! CantOtf. When Wilkinson went to his office one day last week he felt calm and contented, He hadn't any need to worry about his wife's loneliness any more, for ho had bought a capital watchdocr for her. But, alas, when he arrived home his wife met him with the deplorable new3 that tiic dog had gone. "Eb!" said Wilkinson. "Did h break the chain, thon?" "No," she replied, "but a great, ugly looking tramp came her md acted so impudently that 11 th dog loose. But instead of tedrin the tramp to pieces the nasty doc irent oft" with him."

A Mtmory of Pickett's BrlgacU and 1 Night Attack. Borne years after the civil war a gathering of veterans of both sides was exchanging reminiscences at a banquet given by the board of trade of Xew York, writes Mrs. La Salle Corbell Pickett in Lippincott's. The presiding officer was Colonel J. J. Phillips of the Ninths Virginia regiment, Pickett's division. He

was speaking of night attacks and recalled one in particular, not because of its startling horrors, but becanse of a peculiar circumstance, almost resulting in the compulsory disobedience of ordersthe obeying1, as it were, of a higher command than that of earth. "The point of attack had been carefully selected," said Colonel Phillips, "the awaited dark night had arrived, and my command was to Are when General Pickett should signal the order. "There was that dread, indescribable stillness, that weird, ominous eience, that always settles ovei everything before a fight. You felt that nowhere in the universe wa there any voice or motion. "Suddenly the awesome silence was broken by the sound of a deep, full voice rolling over the blackvoid like the billows of a great sea, directly in line with our guns. It was singing the old hymn, 'Jesus, Lover of My Soul "I have heard that grand old music many times in circumstances

which intensified its lmpressiveness, but never had it seemed so solemn as when it broke the stillness in which we waited for the order to fire. Just as it was given there rang through the night the words: "Cover my deftsnsaless head With the shadow of thy win. "'Ready! Aim! Fir to the left, boys!1 I said. "The "juris were .cif ted, the volley that blazed ouTjEgrved aside, and that defenseless liead was 'covered with the, shadow of his wing." A Federal veteran who had been listening looked np suddenly and said: "I remember jhat night, colonel, and that midnight attack which carried off so many of my comrades I was the singer." There was a second of lilence. Then "Je?us, Lover of My Soul," rang across that banquet board at on that black night in 1864 it had
