sort to the question above, for have
they not a lively remembrance of hay
ing learned in theif schoolbooks that
“a. volcano is a burntag mountain, from
the summit of which -ire sent out smoke
and flames?” This,popular fancy has
been exploded by ^scientists, whose
work is to explode popular fancies.
In the first place, volcanoes are not
necessarily mountains. In reality they
are just the reverse—that is, holes in
the earth’s crust. Out of these are
thrown the materials which, accumu
lating, form the heaps which we popu
larly call mountains.
These are, then, the result and not
the .cause of the action. Neither are
they “burning,’’ as we understand the
term. There Is no combustion, nor any
action we might reasonably call “burn
ing.”
The action need hot necessarily take
place at the summit, for eruptions are
just as frequent at the sidqs or. even
at the base.

Bean Brnmtnel and His Boots.
In the “Reminiscences and Recollec
tions of Captain Grownow” (who was
himself a famous dandy) occurs the
following annecdote of Bean Brum-
mel, the time being 1815.
The dandy’s dress consisted of a blue
coat, with brass buttons, leather
breeches and top boots, and It was the
fashion to wear a deep, stiff white
cravat, which prevented you from
seeing your boots while standing.
All the world watched Brummel to
imitate him, and order their clothes of
the tradesman who dressed that sub
lime dandy. One day a youthful beau
approached Brummel and said:
“Permit me to ask yon where you
get your blacking?”
Ah!” replied Brumme^ gazing com
placently at his boots, “my blacking
positively ruins me. I will tell you in
confidence. It is made with the finest
