of the MONS climlte must be very hot, .fdr ADORE
that Of boiling traier. And the is, that its
surface is exposed for fourteen days at time to the
unmiigatcd and continual heat of the sun. At the
full and for few days afterwards, the moon must

character of culinary rather than solar heat that is
to say, 1T emanates from body below the tempera-
ture of ignition it will be arrested by the upper
strata of the earihs atmosphere and thus absorbed.
There its only effect will be to convert visible
clouds into transparent vapor He asserted that the
phenomena of the rapid dissipation of clouds mode
rate weather soon after the appearance of the full
mooa, could easily be accounted for this principle,
and that his own observations confirmed the theory
