The Transit of ten0s.


TIE Transit Of tenSs.
This event, which is to take place
in December, is attracting unusual at
tention to our neigbboring planet,
which is now so conspicuous an object
in the evening sky. Venus is nearly |
as large as the earth, and, like our
planet travels around the sun contin-
ually, but makes its annual revolution
in seven and half of our months.
Each of its four seasons, therefore,
lasts eight weeks. Venus is so near
the sun that il it is inhabited ii must
be by beings that can stand contin-
uous heat double that OF this earth.
Venus is surrounded byan atmosphere
filed with moisture, and must bemuch
more cloudy than is the sky Of this
earth. 1t undoubtedly has continents,
islands, oceans and rivers 1t must
have some forms of life, for where
there is heat and moisture there must
be vegetable growth. and, in all prob
ability, some of the lower forms Of in
sect life. The coming transit is an in
teresting event, and astronomers eve
rywhere are getting ready to witness
it from every point of view possible
on this earth---tDemorest's Monthly.
The long pelisse is the success of the
season as a wrap for young ladies, and
also for those who are older who do
not require very warmly lined cloaks.
Cloth is the fashionable fabric for the
pelisse, with Astrakhan or Persian
lambs skin for the trimming; green is
the favorite color for the cloth, and
brown is also much used, but ia more
effective when trimmed with natural
beaver fur of light brown shades than
with the black curled fms. q

Of Brunn, was taking walk in the
castle grounds when, on reaching
less frequented portion Of the park, he
saw a young lady coming in the oppo-
site direction. As they we're about to
pass each other, the lady suddenly
turned towards Mr.. b., threw her
arms around his neck and kissed him;
then, as il ashamed Of what she had
done, she covered her face with Der
hands and ran of as fast ss she could.
The gentleman, unable to account for
this agreeable surprise, followed the
young lady, and taking her by the
arm, asked for an explanation of the
strange procedure. IL beg a thou
