The Language of Signs.

A youhg provincial, newly arrived In Faris, got into a dispute with a boule- vardier who prided himself on his fine manners. The Parisian, wishing to carry off the thing with a high hand, pulled a glove out of his pocket, and threw it at the stranger. The latter, astonished, inquired the meaning of the action. When it was explained to him that throwing a glove was equivalent to a slap in the face, the young pro- vincial sat down, gravely drew off one of his boots and threw it at the back of his opponent.—Almanach Amusant.

Better So.

“No,” said the “emancipated” young woman, “Harold and I will not marry. The engagement is broken off.”

“What was the trouble ?”

“HHe does not agree with me in poli- tics, and I am compelled to believe that his ideas about housekeeping are hope- lessly crude and chaotic.”

eg ai a aie

There is a movement on foot to hold a convention of Irish Americans in one of the larger cities ot the United States at an early date. It is the intention to in- augurate a new and bolder policy in the interest of Irish independence. The idea is to force the Irish question upon the at- tention of the world, which, it is alleged, will compel a settlement satisfactory to the Irish people.

Sorry to part with you, Mr. Sikes, but we shall not need your service any longer.”

AGE OF THE EARTH. >

Sclentists Are Puzzling Themselves Over This Interesting Question.

It is more than thirty years since Lord

Kelvin pointed out that there must be an |

ascertainable limit to the antiquity of the earth, and that from the data at that time available the limit could not be fixed at

less than 20,000,000 or more than 400,000, - 000 years. He based this calculation on the thermal conductivity of the globe. Afterward returning to the subject, he placed the limit within 100,000,000 years, and still more recently, reviewing the question in the light of the arguments

from tidal retardation and the age of the suns heat, he tas brought down the period of the earth’s antiquity to about 20, 000, 000 years

Geologlists have not been slow to admit that they were in error in assuming that they had an eternity of past time for the evolution of earth’s history. They have frankly acknowledged the validity of the physical arguments which go to place limits to the anti- quity of the carth. In vain they have protested that there must somewhere be a flaw ina line of arguments which tends to result so entirely at variance with the strong evidence for a high.r antiquity, furnished not only by the exisiing races of plants and animals. Scientists have insisted that this evidence is not mere theory or imagination, but is drawn from a multitude of facts which become hope- lessly unintelligible unless sufficient time is admitted forthe evolution of geological history. They have not been able to dis- prove the arguments of the physicists but they have not contended that the physi- cists have simply ignored the geological arguments as of no account in the discus- sion.

So here the matter has rested for some years, neither side giving way, and with no prospect of agreement. Prof Perry, fecling that, after-all, the united testi- mony of geologists and biologists was so decidedly against the latest reduction of that it was desirable to reconsider

the

more or less definite

time

the physical argument, has gone over to them once more. He now finds that on the assumption that the earth is not

homogeneous, as postulated by Lord Kel- vin, but possesses a much higher conduc- tivity and thermal capacity in its interior than in its crust, its age may be enor- yaousiy greater than previous calcula- tions have allowed. The question being sub-judice, we must wait until it is set- tled. But there seems at present every prospect that the physicists will concede not merely the 100,000,000 of years with which the geologists would be quite con- tent, but a very much greater extent of time.
