A physician says that such Is the case. The solid nucleus ho supposes to bo between 3,000 and 7,000 miles In diameter, and this Is surround ed by a liquid substratum, outside of which Is the crust, variously estimat ed at 70 to 200 infles in thickness. More than two centuries ugo u similar theory, Including the slow rotation of the lnuer solid sphere on a different axis from that of the entire globe, was held by Dr. Edmund llalley to account for the changes in the earth's magnet ism. The axis of the nucleus was thought to huve been originally that of the entire globe, and to the change of Its course was attributed the deluge. The earth's internal heat, it Is now, pointed out. may be accounted for by| the friction of the different rotating | bodies. THE "HOLY HOUSE." Lesrend of the Home of Mary and tha Saviour. Let me give the main outlines of tho legend. At Nazareth was preserved with pious care the house of Our Lady. The dwelling place in which she received the gracious message of the incarnation, the lowly home whichr sheltered the holy family for so many years, was a very precious sanctuary. On May 10, 1201, a month after the taking of Tripoli and Ptolemais, this holy house was carried by the hands of angels from Naeareth to a place in Dalmatia between Flume and Tereata on the Adriatic shore. It was a one roomed edifice, built of rod square stones, fastened with ce ment, and bore proof of ago and ori ental design. It stood without any foundations and hafl a wooden deco rated celling. The walls were covered with frescoes; there were a door aud a narrow window; Inside were an altar of stone, an ancient crucifix, a small cupboard, containing a few ves sels of common use; a chimney and hearth, above which was a cedar statue of Our Lady with the Iloly Child in her arms. The pastor of the place learned in a vision that the build ing was the house of Our Lady, tho stone altar that at which St. Peter celebrated mass and the statue the work of St. Luke the Evangelist. In proof of the vision he was cured of a serious illness. A deputation of four responsible persons forthwith were sent to Nazareth to investigate the mystery, and they found that the house was no longer to be found. Measurement and other means taken proved that tho house that had sud denly appeared in Dalmatla was in deed none other than that which had ns suddenly left Palestlno. Three years after, on Dec. 10, 1204, the holy house again dlsappeard and under the pontificate of Celestlne V. came to Recanatl, a little town In the march of Ancona, when It fixed itself In a laurel grove belonging to a pious lady called Loreto. It was discovered by some shepherds and soon t>ecame rec ognized and was henceforth a much frequented place of pilgrimage. Eight months afterward the house removed to a Kigali hill, three miles from Re canatl, to land belonging to two broth ers, who, however, fell out shortly aft erward over the division of wealth which began to flow to the new shrine. To save strife between the brothers the house was suddenly lifted once more nnd this time settled down final ly In the midst of the public way, which had to be diverted in conse quence. Here, too, in the course of time a chapel was built, which gave wuy In time to the present basilica. The famous pilgrimage of Loreto goes on today. Popes, kings and princes have visited this shrine and left great gifts. Later on a festival with litur gical rites was Instituted, and in tlmo the feast of the translation of the holy house was extended to many countries. —Fortnightly Review. TIMBER PRESERVATION. The Moat Perfect Method Is Also tha Moat Expenalve. Telephone poles nearly always decay at or just below the ground line. The upper portiou of the pole, permanently In the air, rapidly drying after rain, is practically always dry and is rarely I found decayed. The butt of the pole, deeply buried in the ground, Is in a permanently dump condition, but oxy gen being excluded it is seldom badly affected. Close to the ground line tho soli retains the moisture and keeps the wood constantly damp where it Is ex posed to the air and to the heat of the sun, which is Just what Its little vege table enemies like, but If the albumen In the wood can be rendered unlit for food the wood-tisHues offer practically no support to fungi. Timber preserva tion amounts, then, to poisoning tho food supply of the destructive agencies. Preservation of timber is attempted In three ways—by seasoning, either natural oY artificial; by outward me chanical means, such as charring In fire or the applications of antiseptics on the surface of tho stick, and by impreg nating the wood with antiseptics. Of these the last Is by far the most im portant. The most perfect method— which is also the most expensive— is the injection of dead oil of coal tar in to the whole fiber of the pole.—Hart ford Times. a prettv gift a waist pattern would make for a dear friend at Xmas.

Three Baggage | Checks By Donald Allen Copyright, 1000, by M. M. Cunningham Whatever caused Harry Lee, bache- j lor, clubman and a good deal of a cynic, | to saunter Into the Central depot thai j nfternoou he never has been able to explain except by laying It to fate. He j wasn't going anywhere, didn't want to | see anybody In particular, and he al ways kept clear of passenger depots oo account of tearful old women and cry ing children. On this occasion he had scarcely caught sight of one tearful old woman when somebody caught sight of him. "And who on earth told you that I was going to Buffalo?" exclaimed a voice at his elbow as he turned togo out. It was Miss Itemlngton, whom he had known fairly well for a year past and who had sometimes struck him as be ing rather good looking and of engag ing manners. Just now she was look ing unusually well In her traveling suit and her eyes shining with excite ment. "I—l came to say farewell," replied Lee, with ready wit. "How nice of you! My trunk waa sent on half an hour ago ahead of ma and must be In the baggage room. 1 "YES, I KNOW," BMILKD TIIK 13AOOAOB MASTEIt. know you will take my ticket and get It checked for me. Brother Will said lie would surely be here, but something has happened to detain him." "It will be something to remember all my life." A child of ten, a bachelor of forty or an old woman of ninety can check a trunk \then once the feat of getting It to the depot has bceu accomplished. All you have to do is to point It out with one hand while you show your ticket with the other and tell the bag gage master that he must make no mis take and check It for Oslikosh Instead of Kalamazoo. Harry Lee had that trunk Identified and checked In seven minutes, and he was feeling rather proud over the fact when a plain looking woman of forty appealed to him. She was looking for a trunk with a broken handle, but thus far It had eluded her. It tried to dodge Harry Lee, but In vain. He had his eyes on it in no time. Just at this juncture a girl of eight een, dressed In mourning and looking tearful and anxious, wanted help. Her trunk was all right as to handles, but she was afraid It had been chocked to Rochester Instead of Syracuse. She gave the bachelor her check to see about It.and thus It came about that ho had three checks for three trunks In his possession. Moreover, he put them Into the same pocket. Moreover, ago/a, lied have walked back to Miss Ilem i'.igton with them had not the plain looking woman and the girl In mourn ing hesitatingly reminded him of his carelessness. "Ten thousand pardons, ladles," he apologized In confusion, and with that he gallantly pulled out the three checks and made a fair divide. There was Just one apiece and nothing left over. It was train time now and everybody In a hurry, and Miss Kemiugton's brother came rushing in, and so with It all no one made any discoveries, aud the three women were hurried away with scores of other passengers. For the first time In a year, so far as he could remember, the club bachelor had made himself useful for a few minutes, and there was something like elation In his eye as he left the depot to continue his saunter. Twenty-four hours later he received a call from young Winchester, who had an open telegram In his hand aud who bluntly Inquired: "See here, Lee, what have you done with my sister's trunk?" "Why, I checked It for Buffalo yes terday." "She has telegraphed that she has an other In the place of It." "But, man, I surely checked It, and you saw me hnnd her the brass. Those confounded railroad folks must have made another of their stupid mistakes." "Well, we'll let it rest for a day, and perhaps they'll rectify It." During the next twenty-four hours Miss Itemlngton sent two more tele grams from Buffalo, and the ease lov ing and complacent bachelor got a move on him and went to the depot to Interview the president, vice president and general manager of the road.

Sunday school picnic, he decided to in terview the baggage master instead. There was dignity in his bearing us he set out to crush the worm under his feet. The worm wasn't very busy just then and heard him through and then retaliated with: "We have two telegrams from two other women about trunks having gone wrong, and it's all owing to your hav ing bulled in here the other day.l re member you very well. You had threo trunks checked at the same time.** "Yes, sir, I did, and If the baggage department can't take care of the trunks all at once It had better go hang." -jjiu you nana tne three checks to three different women?" "Of course 1 did." "Are you sure you kept them sepa rate?" "Of course—that Is—that Is, you know"— "Yes, I know," smiled the baggago master. "You handed out any old check, and as a consequence there Is a mix. It's up to you to do some tele graphing and straighten things out." Mr. Lee spent the whole day tele graphing and receiving "collect" mes sages from Buffalo, Rochester and Syr acuse, but ho made little headwav. clfic; his "collects" were vigorous and rather threatening. At the end of the day he decided on making a personal trip to straighten out the tangle. lie could remember the trunks and theii respective owners. Ills first stop was at Syracuse. He was sure that the girl In mourning with a humble looking trunk had had it checked there. Two telegrams had passed and he had her address. In the course of an hour he found her. She hadn't quite so much mourning on now and was better looking than he had thought. She bad received the plain woman's trunk with the broken handle. She was a refined, ladylike girl and in mourning for an aunt who had left h*»r $50,000, but yet she used language tinged with acid. Next time she went traveling and had to appeal to a man for help she would make sure that he knew enough to check his own trunk, and so forth, and so forth. A woman may lose her sweetheart and say noth ing, but let her lose her trunk while traveling and it takes years to exhaust the subject. Mr. Lee got away with his ears burn ing. and yet he admired Miss Strothers. He arranged to have the trunk sent on to Rochester and then took the train for that city. The plain woman was expecting him. She had the trunk all ready to point at, but It didn't happen to be Miss Strothers' trunk. It be- j longed to Miss Remington. Here was another mlxup. The bachelor drew a long breath and started to explain, but was cut short after a minute. He was asked to Identify himself as an honest man; he was asked to prove that he was not a baggage thief; he was asked to con vince the plain looking woman, who looked plainer than ever In her own house and with her anger up, that his' grandfather had never been hung for a capital crime. At the end of half an hour the plain woman soften on him a bit. She softened enough to say that perhaps after all It was his first crime and that' If he hustled around and got that one handled trunk In Rochester Inside of , two hours she would not call In the j police. Bachelor Lee longed to return to New York and find rest and peace, but Inex orable fate drove him onto Buffalo. There he found Miss Remington. "I am not going to blame you at all," ihe said as she met him. "It was all my fault In thinking that you knew anything about the operation of rail roads. You could have loaded that trunk into an auto and had It Into the Staten Island ferry in half an hour. Mr. Lee proceeded to explain, but It was not much of an explanation. How ever, the more he explained and the more he failed to explain the more lie became Interested In Miss Remington. I It was a matter of four days before the big trunk," the little trunk and the one handled trunk reached their re spective owners. The chapter was closed then and there with the plain looking woman, but not so with oue of the others. Ever since that date, and particularly during the last three months, the bachelor clubman has found it necessary togo up the road to talk trunk business, and he finds that the most effective way to remind Miss Remington of her duty to ward the diamond ring she wears is to suggest that he take a trip to Syracuse to see the other young woman about her trunk.
