Earthquakes Peril - America’s Big Cities About the last thought, probably, that occurs to the average American is that he may be Iltving In an area of earthquake danger. As a matter of fact, earthquakes occur In the United States every year—many of them. More than that, writes Arthur Selwyn Brown, PhD., LLD., in Popular Sclence Monthly, they occur in places that point to the existence of definite Ilnes of earth weakness passing through or near some of our greatest cities. New York, Washington and Boston, for example, lie along one of these lines, and eonsequently are not removed entirely from the danger ‘of earthquake. Other similar Ilines are found stretching across the continent from southern Californla to the Atlantic coast, sweeping up through the Mississipp! valley to the Great Lakes, cleaving the center of. New England. Within these areas live millions of people. : A study of the annual reports of earthquakes In the United States shows that there is an fmportant line of earth weakness starting ir the southern parts of California, traversing Arizona, following the thirty-fifth degree of latitude, sending a spur up the Mississippi and Ohio rivers, then running eastward to the sea, and thence following the Atlantic coastal ranges up to Prince Edward island and Newfoundland. .
British Doctor Gives New “Cures”’ for Ills If you want to forget your troubles, think about them as hard as you can, says a leading British medical man. You cannot drive an unpleasant memory out of the mind, but you can, as it were, tire it out by constantly thinking about it, and it will then dissipate itmelf. / Another eminent doctor says that the way to cure contrariness in children is not by reproof but by approbation. Contrary habits are common in children. If wanted to hurry they will dawdle, if asked to sit down they insist upon standing.up. The way to check opposition of this kind is, we are told, to pretend that going slow and standing mp is what is desired, and contrary habits at table should .be combated in the same way. The trouble is not usually the child’s own fault, but is more often than not due to a highly nervous, self-conscious temperament. ; - Some Long Distances In our finite conception of things it is hardly possible for any of us to imagine the vastness of the. universe. It is this restricted point of view that makes it difficult for us to appreclate the practical value of developments beyond the earth. OQur sun is about 98,000,000 miles away, and to the average person that appears to be quite some distance. '
We think that even our nearest neighbor, the moon, is a long way off from us because the intervening gap is about 240,000 miles. But when we think of these bodies in terms of other celestial objects it bocomes apparent how close we really are to our source of sunlight. The reflected light from the moon reaches us in one and & quarter seconds, while even the light from the ‘sun, travellng at the rate of 186,000 miles a second, gets to us in eight and & third minutes. : All this represents rapld service in view of the truth that the light from the nearest star to the earth requires more than four years to reach us.— Floyd W. Parsons, In the Saturday Bvening Post. : - Geysers of Boiling Mud Suddenly subsiding without the slightest warning—a big area of ground in front of a Maori meeting house at Wharkarewarewa, New Zealand, from a level plain suddenly became a huge cauldron of boiling water, 15 feet deep. Heavy steam clouds issued from the cavity. In the Valley of Whakarewarewa many forms of thermal activity are found. Some of the geysers throw columns of boiling water 100 feet into the air. A Maori community has built nondescript dwellings among the precarious surroundings of mud volcanoes and, boiling springs. The natural heat _ol‘ ‘the water and mud serves them instead of fires for cooking.—Family Herald. ~ History Told by Trees The people of long ago did not trouble to say much about the weather in their writings, but the botanjsts do not need the help of records. The books they study are the trunks of trees. When a tree is cut down its age can be found by counting the number of rings between the heart and the bark. Each of these rings represents one year of growth, and scientists believe that we can decide whether a specified season was late or early, dry or wet, by studying the thickness and consistency of the fibre of the -corresponding circle,
Truant’s Good Excuse Schoolboys are extremely practical in these days. The headmaster of a School in an English district re- - cently received a note apologizing for a boy’s absence from school because he was repairing his boots. The master was naturally interested, and upon inspection was astonished at the skillful way In which this lad of thirteen had " soled and heeled and patched the boots he was wearing.

The hall was erected at a cost of $7,000. : G Foster’s Community sale Thursday Jan. 14. Commencing at noon. :

Two thousand years ago there was perhaps some excuse for the gastronome, but today there is none. The way to bealth les in a balanced diet. Hippocrates, the father of medicine, figured along the same lines back 450 B. C. He expressed the belief that the science of medicine had its beginning in the efforts of men and women to fird better and smoother diets. : Diet in the home today is becoming a matter of premier consideration. Women are taking cognizance of those important food elements known as vitamines. They have learned, also, the benefit to the human body of such minerals as iron, calcilum and phosphorus. < This knowledge has resulted in the housewife planning her menus with an eye open to dietary values, which is the big reason why milk has assumed such a large place in the menu of the American family. Milk contains every structural element for body building. It is an almost perfect food. Despite the best refrigeration facilitles, milk will keep sweet only a short time. Millions of American housewives have solved this big problem by using evaporated milk, which is simply fresh cow’s milk sterilized in cans to achieve keeping qualities and with sixty per cent of the water removed. Evaporated milk is not the same as condensed milk, although many persons confuse the two. The condensed product is a combination of milk and sugar cane in a two-fifth cane sugar and three-fifth milk proportion. Evaporated milk has nothing but water taken from it and nothing at all added. Sugar is the preservative used In manufacturing the condensed produet, while heat only is the preservative for evaporated milk. For this reason the evaporated product may be used In any way in which market milk is used. .
