The question, always intereSting for the light it throws on the past history of the earth, has had many answers. The latest is that. of Dr. J. W. Spencer, who, from recent studies on the Spot, finds that the mean rate of recession of the falls at present is 4.2 feet a year. and that has been the rate for approximately 2:27 years. But owing to the fact that originally the waters of Lake Erie only were discharged over the falls, givinqunly onefifteenth of the present water Iupply, the rate of recession was at first much slower. A sudden widen-1 ing of the gorge above Foster’s Flat indicates the position of the falls when the Other Great Lakes began to discharge into Lake Erie. From this data, Dr. Sper cer calculates the entire age of the falls at thirty nine thous and years. The cutting, with the I power of the four akes. is eStimated ! to have laSted thirty five hundred ; years. “OH V. vucv vâ€"vâ€" A des atch fr " - V , h th d p om Toronto “538' The and debility. or any Other symptoms 0 er ay at the General Hosyital, an . h - . . of catarrh, you should begin to use ansest etic. named Folvaine, which . h d - , .
