And she ran to the door to admit her mother, who came in wearlly, with a groat bundle of work that would have tired a mueh stronger womar than Mrs. Grant to carry. ‘Gone to get more sewing, now !‘ ‘Where‘s your mother, child 9 Mr. Dorâ€" man asked, in the same words he had first addressed to Bessie; but obh! in what a difforent tone, so gentle and sad that it alâ€" moet made her feel like crying. And she flew to the window, and cutting a aweet bunch of heliotrope, laid in his hand. [atideal whis l ‘In my mamma‘s roomy,‘ she answered, Jumping up delightedly, and runing to him. ‘Don‘t you remember ? The wall fell on you the day you were going to send us off.

Mrs. Grant, too preâ€"occupled with her troubled thoughts to notice this speech, went out to return her finished sewing and bring back more ; leaving Bessie installed as nurse. *He‘ll never know, dear,‘ whispered Mrs. Grant, sadly, in reply. *‘Then he ought to ; and I‘ll tell him," said Bessie, with an emphatie nod of her :)nd, which set all her golden curis daneâ€" Tt will give him sweet dreams, mam sho whispered softly ; "and perhaps v he wakes up and knows how good yc been to him he‘ll let us stay here,‘ mean as the little room was, it was ‘he to poor Bessie.

But ch | this aucient continent which, it appears, I | was nearly obliterated by oceans and glas 1| ciers in building up the present continent was itself built up from the ruins ofa still ig | older continent, the location of which can. is | not be known, but the existence of which Icannot be doubted. Betweon the Atlfntic t | and the Pacific gradually rrome a broad : ut,cnntimntcu\'ered with tropical and subâ€" a / tropical plants and avimals, bu$ in the 1« | course of ages it became "worn out," as the professor expressed it. The rivers cut s | deep gorges and drain the lakes. The once fertile platears become s‘erile deserts, ] r| Then came the great ice age which transâ€" t | formed the whole frce of the continent and s | left it very much as we now see it. Owing ) | to astronomical causes, the inclination of | the earth‘s axis, combined with the eccenâ€" + 'tncity of the earth‘s orbit, there is a great |â€" ,ltnd long continued depression of tempera. | | | ture in the northern hemisphere. A vast| ‘| glacier creeps down over the northern | 1 states to about the 36th latitude, leveling | hills and mountains, filling up lake basins| t and waterâ€"courses, grinding rocky masses| : to sand and pebbles and carrying the debris | t |far to the southward. To the action of this | t inundation of ice and of the floods which | v followed its disapperrance on the return of | a a warmer climate, is attributed the present | system of lakes, rivers and undulating land | s surfaces which are wholly different from | e those which were obliterated by the great | r glacier. This great change in the history | ci of our continent, Prof, Winchell believes, | st ’fiook place about 80,000 years ago. As| p the same causes continue to operate, the | e ice ago must return 80,000 or 100,000 years | t1 hence, when the centers of population will | sil be found in the southern hemisphere, and | fi London will, perhaps, become a mm‘ bl whaling station in the northern seas. in YAz t An inquest and ;;:g the American legoon which stretche broad and shallow ocean from the but yet submerged slupes of the All ies on the east to the embryotre rid [ 20 OW C O COS SA TRRNUOT which we study from the bettom to the top of the paleozoie series, points to the north and northeast us the origin of the stream of sediment that spread over the bottom of SWd s dn 2 was born. At first it revolved in close proximity to the earth and with great ruâ€" pidity, and has since continued to reyolve about it in an ever widening orbit. The birth of the moon was followed,nafter a long interval, perhaps never to be definâ€" itely measured by science, by the birth of the first continent. Of this interesting event we get some idea from Prof. Winâ€" chell, of Michigan university. He holds | that the present North American continent | as wo see it, is but the renovated ruins of a | far older continent which arose far to the ’ north and enst, and of which the submerged | mountain range where rnow rest the Atlan. tic enbles onee formed a nam: um _ | ; |â€" In a late number of Nature, Prof. R. S. { | Bell indulges in some curious computations ; | about the earth‘s infancy, and his concluâ€" » | sions are somewhat startling. He sums ; | up the evidence showing that the rotation , | of the earth on its axis is steadily growing slower. This retardation, due to the rction | of the tides, amounts to only a frastion of ‘ a second in a thousand years, yet that it | does exist, and has existed ever since the ! tides began to ebb and flow, seems demonâ€" l strable. The conclusion is inevitable that the days must hereafter continue to grow slowly but steadily longer and longer until the earth ceases to revolve at all; and by tracing back this retardation, in aceordâ€"| ance with the known laws of matter and motion, there was & time when the day | and night were together but three hours > long. A revolution in less than that time [ would be impossible, so that‘ this period, | which Prof, Bell fixes rt not loss than 50,-] ‘ 000,000 years ago, was a crisis in the | ; world‘s history, At that remote time the |< world was a balf molten mass, without orâ€" ‘, ganie life, the oceans themselves being susâ€" l' pended above it as clonds and vapours.

And so they are living a beautiful dreamaâ€"life in that splendid house; and Bessie, with flowers to her heart‘s content, is as happy as the day is long. I do not think they will ever *waike up,‘ if that means going back to the miserable poverâ€" ty from which Mr. Dorman resoued them, He says that it was all because of the ‘coals of fire‘ on his head ; and Bessie wonders what he means, when she knows it was only lnmne af ali... only lumps of plaster, y tg is ~=%, 4@>#4....._. * °CC continued to revolve | w ver widening orbit.
