Earthquake Signs

“It is known,” says the Washington Times, referring to the recent great earthquake in southern Italy, “that there has been in the last few years a striking increase in these activities throughout all the earthquake and volcanic regions of the world. From Hawaii to Italy, from the West Indies to the East Indies, in southern as well as northern hemisphere, the ancient historic volcanoes have been remarkably active, while others which have been supposed to be extinct have broken into eruption.”
It is not so well known, but no less true, that the increase of these seismic disturbances constitutes one of the signs of the last days, as foretold by the Saviour. There are premonitory tremors in nature as the earth draws nearer to the day of final dissolution.
