MUCH SUFFERING FOLLOWS INFLUENZA HOW OCEAN AFFECTS VOLCANOES Sinking of Sea Floor is Cause of Destructive Eruptions. Health Can Only be Restored Through the Use of a Bkwd- Making Tonic. An epidemic of Influeusa, such as to now prevaleut In many parts of Can- ada, always leaves widespread suffer- ing In Its wake. The dlseese ttself Is dan««rou6. but the danger 1* seldom over vhen the characteristic symp- toms f>f tho trouble have passed. There is left behind depression of •plrits, weakened vital powers, thin blood. Impaired digestion and over- sensltiTo nerves. Men and women who were rcrtjuat before stricken with in- fluenza find their bodies racked with pain previously unknown to them. This Is due to an abnormal thinning of the blood and leaves the syatem an easy prey to other serious troubles. This Is the time when the convalescent from Influenza should build up the blood with a reliable bk)o<l-maklng tonic such as Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. When the bloo3 regains Its rich red quality the nerves recover their strength and the organs of the body Itunction naturally and the dangerous, depressing after-«tfects of influenza disappear. Proof of the undoubted value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills as a . blood-builder and nerve tx)nic is shown J by tbo case of ^Irs. R. O. Stromberg, Cobalt, Ont., who says: â€" "I had a very severe attack of grippe, or influenza, I ; which confined me to my bed for a week. On getting up again I did not j recover my usual strength. I was very I weak, had a sevrt-e pain In my head, and a constant backache. I bad to get | a woman to do my work for me as I ! had neither the strength nor the ; energy to do anything. At this stage, j remembering the great benefit I had i through Dr. Williams' Pink Pills in i girlhood, I began taking this medi-| cine, and scon my strength began to | return.' I am now able to do all my' own work again, and take care of my j baby boy.

As we have seen, the ocean beds are slnkiug as a result of the ecirth's con- traction. The downward pressure upon the in- terior of the earth would tend to pro- duce a corresponding upward pressure under these pockets. Hence, if tliere were a crack or fis- sure in the earth's surface, the molten material would be forced out, and that is just what a volcano is^ â€" a hole or sort of natural pipe connecting with one of these pockets ot molten ma- terial. The molten material usually pours slowly out of the crater of the volcano. But occasionally another factor en- ters the situation. A great quantity of gas collects with the molten ma- ter are hurled forth by volcanoes. The lava streams cool and solidify into a variety of rocks which are class- ed among the igneous or tire-harifened rocks. The fragraental materials range in size from dust-like particles to par- ticles the size of walnuts. The dust is known as volcanic ash. The steam ejected from a volcano condenses and falls as rain.

This proved a sticker for the class, but finally one man ventured an answer, said ho, "If the bird that flew over the house was a wild goose, it went in a straiglit, regular line, so the verb Is regular; but If it was a woodpecker then it went In a crooked zigz.ag line, and so the verb Is irregular."
