EASY TRICKS
• Flip Flop
Holding the right Band as in
Pignre 1, piece a dime on the last
joint of the middle finger. Telt
your friends that you have so de-
velopod the muscles of the finger
that you can cause the.coin to hop
up and turn a complete somersault
in the air.
AS this Is a tricic, the statement
will be taken with a grain of Salt,
but if you do •the trick well you
will find your friends practicing it
and falling' to do, it.
When 'pm' know the ;trick, ,how-
evor, it is very easy. The thumb
is the silent partner. When you
want the coin, to hop. up and turn
over, rest the thumb against the
tip of the finger, press hard and
lot the thumb slip off, just as if
•you were snapping your 'fingers.
That will do the trick. A little
practice is needed- in order to'catch
the coin on the back of the hand.

Graham Island is an example of how the surface of the earth sometimes
changes with rapidity, On July 10, 1831, a column of water 60 feet high retie
in the Mediterranean at a point between the southwest coaet of Sicily and
the coast of Africa: Then followed- clouds of stearin. A submarine volcano had
brokeninto action. Soon the cone of the volcano rose' above tlfe sea, form-
ing an island. By August 4, the island was 200 feet high and three. miles in
circumference, - Thee it began to grow smeller. By the year 1832' it had
again receded below the enface of the tea. The sketch 'shows how it ap-
peared in 1831. -
Secrets of Science.
By David Dietz
The atmosphere, as we have deep,
causes the rocks to crack and decay.
Much of the resulting debris Ie washed
by the rain into the rivers.
The rivers themselves are continual-
ly wearing away the rocks. 'Phe ma-
terial which they wear loose' and the
material which the rain washes into
them, Is casu•!ed •along by the rivers as
sediment.
Most of this sediment le carried the
length of the river and deposited in
the oceans.
The oceans themselves, in addition,
are wearing away the land, eating con-
tinuously oto the continents and is-
lands. '
As a result of these processes great
beds of sediment aro being continuous-
ly deposited In the ocean.
Wben rocks are broken into rather
coarse pieces, the resulting debris is.
known as gravel. When the debris
consists of fine grain, it is known as.
mud. Still finer particles are known
as dust when dry and mud when wet.
The coarser sediment is dropped
near shore, while the finer particles
are carried further out into the ocean.
This can be seen along many coasts
where the shore -line is gravel, grad-
ually changing to sand and then mud
se the distance from the shore in-
creases.
Iii addition to separating the sedi-
ment according to its size, the water
also causes chemical' changes !n -car -
tarn typesof sediment. Thus a fled!,
went of feldspar is broken down into
simpler products, turning in time into
clay.
But in time. the water also has an-
other very important effect upon these.
layers of sediment.
It makes new rocks out of them.
Just as men mix sand and lime to
make mortar, the water' in time ce-
ments the, loose sediment into solid
It will be remembered that the
water contains many minerals in solu-
tion. Some of these minerals are pre-
cipitated or deposited out of the water,
sinking into the layers of sediment and
cementing them . together into solid
rook.
These rocks are caned sedimentary.

rock, the resulting rock :is known as
conglomerate or breccia. Sand be-
comes sandstone by this process and
mud' becomes, shale.
There is`also a class' of sedimentary
rocks which consists entirely of min-
i eral
inieral matter precipitated out of the
:water.
A thirdclass of rock results from
the fact that the ocean' is full of :bil-
lieve of minuteorganisms—animals
and plants -which have hard shells.
These shells are composed of calcium
carbonate. Whet' they die, their shells
isduk to the bottom, forming 1n time a
layer of limestone. One torn 'of lime-
sttlne is dcnown as chalk.

Many surprising feats . are encoo P-

One of the hardest things to believe is
that the sponge you use daily; was once

Banish The Blues
By Observing
Nat'ure's Basic Rule
Those who suffer from despondency,
listlessness and headaches can usuall
trace the cause of these conditions to
constipation.
They are frequently brought about
by overwork, nervous strain, lack of
outdoor exercise or sleep, or improper
food, but more frequently bythenon-
' observance of nature's basic rule—
regular thorough bowel elimination.
Poisons from waste matter left be-
hind are picked up by the blood and
absorbed by the system, ,weakening the
nerves and lowering the vitality.
Nujol, the scientific internal lubri-
cant, corrects constipation in nature's
own way by. augmenting the supply of
nature's lubricant.
Nujol by softening the waste matter
thus permits thorough and regular
elimination without overtaxing the
intestinal muscles. It is gentle, safe'
olid natural in its action, and can be
taken for any length of time without
any ill. effect.
Ask your druggist for Nujol today
and remember—look forthe mime

and a'rasher of bacon. Some of them and package :, ,amt
