Tlscrcforo tho Sea la Contlaually Grow
ing More Salty.
Why is sun water call? ia a question
that 4m3 [been ‘rusard*} r.a a ^-sttry
and hits given iisti to soniu curious «;,cx;u-
lationa, but a littlo consideration on the
subject must, I think, satisfy ns all that
it would bo very wonderful, quite in
comprehensible, if .the waters of tho
ocean were otherwise’tiiaU salt as they,
ate. •
-iThe following explantrtibn wax first
suggested to myself many years ago
when receiving my first lessons in prac
tical chemical analysis. Tho problem
then to be solved was tho separation of
the.jj.'isea dissolved in water by preeip-
itatlngt%em ono ' .by one in a solid con-
cMtiouiflltditiiig jaway the water from
the firSt,*then frcin tins filtrate preci[>-
itating the second, and so on until all
were separated or accounted for.
But in doing this there was one base
that was always left to the last on ac
count of tho difficulty of combining it
with-any acid j.thai.-would furjtt.a solid
cotuponnd—a dffflcsilty so gfcoaivthat its
presence was d^ternuned by a different
tpethold. Tfebrosmis soda, tho predomi
nating base of sea salt, where it is com
bined with hydrochloric acid. Not only
is soda tho most soluble of all tho mineral
btutt£ Imt the mineral acid with which
it U combined form's a roinarkably solu
ble series of salts—the chlorides. Thus
the primary fact concerning the salinity
of sea water is that it has selected from
among the stable; chemical elbinents-the
two which form-tlur labst soluble com
pounds. Among thb earthy hasps ia pap
which is exceptiejaaliy solnUe—-that ii,
magnesia—and this stands ' next to soda
in its abnndar.ee in sea water.
Modern research has shown that tho
ocean contaHis- in -solution nearly every
element that crisis npon the earth, and
that these elements e-fist in .th&’W'ater in
proportions nearly Corresponding to the
mean solubility of their various com
pounds. Thus gold and silver and most
oft he. Other-heavy metals exist there.
Soncenstadt found about fourteen
grah)s"of goldto tho ton of seawater, or
a dollar’s worth in less than two tons.
As the ocean covers all tho lower valley „
of tho earth, It receives all the drainage
from tho whole of the exposed land,
This drainage Is the rainwater that lias
fallen upon this exposed surface, has
(lowed down its superficial slopes or has
sunk into porous land and descended
underground. In either case the water
must dissolve and carry with it any sol
uble matter that it meets, the quantity
of solid matter which is thus appropri
ated being proportionate to its solubility
and the extent of its exposure to the
solvent. Rain when it falls upon the
earth is distilled water, nearly pure (its
small impurities being what it obtains
from the air), but river water when it
roaches the ocean • contains measurable
quantities of dissolved mineral apd veg
etable matter, These small contribu
tions are ever pouring iu and ever seen-
mulntiug, This continual addition of
dissolved mineral salts without any cor
resjionding abstraction by • evaporation
lulp been going oh over since the aurface
irf the earth cotisisteil of land mid water.
An examination of the composl io.i of
..other ..brtijes. of water which, like the
ocean, receive rfVCtfl ’fffld rivulets and
have no other outlet than that afforded
by evaporation, confirms this view. All
of tbtisu are more or !£ss salino, many of
them more so than the ocean itself. On
tho great tableland of Asia', "the roof of
the world,” there is a muliitnde ofsmr.il
lake* which receive the waters of rivers
and rivulets of that region and have no
outlet tpj fher octnti, 'On-ntuap they ap
pear like bags, with a string attached,
the bag being the lake and the string the
river. All these lakes are eaUne, many
of-tbem esceasively so, simply because
they are ever receiving river water of
slight salinity and ever giving off vapor
which bas no salinity at all. There is no
wash through these lakes, as in the great
American lakes or those of Constance.

The sea of Aral and the Caspian are

jQuccr Folks One Meets \Ylille Traveling;
' Over stretches bf Prairle. • ■ •
Journeying across the prairie in yhichr
ever way the road runs, we at length
overtake the strangest looking cavalcade
imaginable—a dilapidated wagon with a
dirty, ragged cover, drawn by an ill as
sorted team of a very small horse and an
oversized mule long since fit subjects for
the txmeyard. The driver is a dirt be
grimed, tobacco stained, low visaged
man, while his wife and family, which
iastj is much too numerous for even a
wealthy . man, are if anything more
dirty, more ragged and more disheveled
than himself. On a tall, gaunt mule
ridts the eldest son and heir (?), driving
before him a herd of two cows, a calf,
one sheep, a goat and an old, blind, lame
horse, while two mangy, mongrel, curs
trot in the rear as if only too fully aware
of their miserable existence. Occasion
ally tho jaded team essays to move out
of a walk, but as quickly relapses into
the pace which for many weary months
has hoenits accustomed gait.
As wo rode up the following dialogue
snsned:
"Howdy.”
"Howdy.”
"Traveling?”
"Travelin rito smart.”
"Come far?”
’Como from the bottom lands of old
llissoury.”
At which point there is a lull in the
Aonvefsation’, during which each surveys
the other. Suddenly tho knight of the
tobacco quid turns interrogater:
“Say, stranger, what might ydr dame
be?”
At this an insane desire takes posses
siou of ris to reply like the schoolboy
"It might be Jones, but it ain’t,” but we
tell him our name, after which the way
is open for an endless string of inquiries,
the first of which are invariably:
"What might your business be?”
’ "Where be you goin?"
"Where’d you come from?”
"How's crops there?"
This sort of thing is bad enough to go
through once, but when one passes a
dozen such each day in the'week, with
each of whom he is 1 expected to go
through the same performance, it be
comes a terror by day and a nightmare
in our dreams. Moreover, one is ex
pected Wktop and go through it, and 1
have more than once heard myself char
acterized as "too high toned to talk to
common folks,” and merely because 1
had no time to stop and talk with them.
The absurdity of this is at once apparent
t(- those here iu the east, where .to mind
cue’s own business is the universal cus
tom. As a matter of fact, a live, ener
getic man has no time to talk or fool
with people by the way. It matters not
a picayune whom he meets, what their
business is. where they are going or any
thing else concerning them.
At night we camp at the only water
hole we have seen during the day and
are soon joined by three bands of mov
ers. Presently as many fires are burning,
and iis the darkness gathers the scene is
by no tnnins unpicturesqne. Children
are.playing about, women are cooking,
the men are tending the horses and stak
ing them out for the night, while the
flickering of the -campfires, the harsh
; talk and coarse laughter of tho men lend
a certain something hard to describe.
If everything we possess is not borrowed
by our neighbors we are lucky, even to
provisions, which last of course are
lorrowed With the mental understand
ing on both sides that they are not to be
returned. Supper over, the siege begins.
Visitors pour in from all sides, mostly
from the male element, and for hours
we are entertained with a complete his
tory of each. We cannot ask them lo
go. for are they not "gentlemen” and
us good as we? So there we, sit, until
finally one by one they drop off and
leave us to ourselves.

A Cozy Kook.
Apropos of upright pianos a scheme
for utilising their backs in the forma
tion of a cozy comer was recently seen.
Tile piano was placed between the mantel
and die window, the back toward the
fireplace and quite out in the room.
The straight back was covered with old
gold silk, laid on In straight, lengthwise
■Ionian at ono end and a multitude of I folds. A bench or settle, with end arms,
but no back, was drawn across it and
provided witli a flat seat cushion of old
gold corduroy and two pillows covered
with tho same material. Between piano
and fireplace, in a position to throw its
rays on the music rack, stood a piano
lamp with a shade of old gold chiffon,
aud at tho other end a palm was grow
ing in a jar of dull Japanese effect.
When this cozy nook, which was still
further protected at the opposite side by
a “crane pole” portiere swinging out at
an oblique angle with a door space, was

his wife struck Scattering chords and
gossiped with him between whiles.—
Her Point of View in New York Times.
'minor rivers and rivulets at the other
end and sides, is a noted example of ex
treme salinity. It is, as everybody
Knows, a sea or lako of brine. Tho to
tal area of land training into the great
ocean docs not exceed one-fourth of its
own area, while the Dead sea receives
the drainage and soluble matter of an
area above twenty times greater than its
own. and thus it fulfills the demand of
the above stated theory by having far
greater sSufiity than has tho great otfeaa.
According to this view the salinity of
the ocean ^pust be steadily though very
slowly increasing, and there must be
slowly proceeding a corresponding adap
tation of evolution among the inhab';-
ants, both auimal aud vegetable. The
study of this subject and the effect
which the increasing salinity of tho past
must have had upon the progressive
modifications of organic life displayed
bv fossils is, I think, worthy of more at
tention than tt has hitherto received
