ABOUT THE SUN.
ITS PRoDIGIoUs FIRES AND ACTIVE.
TIES.

TIES.
Particularly impressive are the facts
and examples by which Professor Young
eDdeayors TO convey TO the readers some
idea Of the prodigious forces and activi-
ties with which the student Of the sun
Is confronted. Speaking Of the outflow
OF solar heart, he says:--
"The quantity OF heat emitted is
enough to melt shell office ten inches
thick over the whole surface Of the sun
every second Of time; this is equivalent
TO the consumption Of layer OF the best
anthracite coal nearly four inches thick
every single second" In regard to the
distance OF the sun from the earth, he
says: although the distance can easily
be stated In figures, II is not possible to
give any idea Of space 80 enormous; 1t
is quite beyond ths power Of our con-
Geption. II one were to try to walk such
q distance, supposlng that he could walk
four miles an hour, and keep It up for
ten hours every day,it would take sixty
eight and half years TO make single
million miles, and more than sIxty-three
hundred years to traverse the whole. II
some celestial railway could be imag-
ined, the journey TO the sun, even II our
train ran sixty miles an hour, day and
night without stop, would require over
one hundred and seventy-five years.
Sensations, even, would not travel so
far In human lifetime.
To borrow the curious illustration
OF Professor Mendenhall, IL we could
imagine an infant with an arm long
enough to enable him TO touch the sun
and burn himself, he would die Of old
age before the pain could reach him,
since according TO the experiments OF
Helmholtz and others, q nervous shock
is communicated only at the rate OF
about one hundred feet per second, or
sixteen hundred and thirty-seven miles
day, and would need more than one
hundred and fifty years to make the
journey. Sound would do II in about
fourteen years If it could be transmitted
trough celestial space;and cannon ball
In about nine, If II we're TO move uni
forrnly with the same speed as when 1t
left the muzzle OF the gun. II the eartf
should be suddenly stopped in her orbil
and allowed to fall unobstrueted toward
the sun, under the accelerating infiu
ence Of his attraction, she would reacl
the center In about four months"
AS to the attraction between the sur
and the earth: "It amounts 10 thirty-si,
hundred quadrillion Of tons-in figures
SO followed by seventeen ciphers
We may imagine gravitation Il
cease, and be replaced by materia
bond Of some sort, sholding the earth :,
the sun and keeping her in her orbit. l
now, we suppose this connection to con
sist of web OF steel wires, each as larg
as the heaviest telegraph wires use'
(No. A., then to replace the sums attraC
| tion these wires would have to cover tn
whole sunward hemisphere of our glob
about as thickly as bades Of grass upol
a lawn. II would require nine TO eac
square inch" There are many othe
facts and illustrations as striking a
these, and the chapters on the coron
and on the solar prominences are I'm
examples of descriptive writing.

The Lenten Season.

The Lenten services which begin
to- day lash w ednesday) have ever
been a power in the Roman Catholic
and Episcopal churches. The
churches OF these two leading demo-
limitations will be open daily for re-
llgious worship until Easter. Special
lectures will be delivered on such
topics as the types Of the Old Testa-
ment with their fullilment in the
New; the leading facts and doctrines
of the books of the Bible; the doc
trines and ceremonies of the Church;
the parallels and the miracles of the
Bible; the men and women Of the
Bible; the leading points OF ecc lesias-
tical history, and in some Roman
Catholic churches lectures showing
the differences between the faith and
practices of that Church and Pro-
testantlsm will also be presented
The other Protestant denominations
will not multiply services for this
season, but will probably more fully
spiritualize their ordinary services

sourso Of ahe lalsslssnpp..

The new found source Of the Misslss-
Ippi is q sparkling little gem of q lake,
situated above aud beyond Lake Itaska.
Its nesting among the pines OF an un-
frequented and wild region of Minneso-
Ia, many miles from the nearest white
settlement, and just on the dividing
ridge which forms the great watersheds
of North America. Within few miles
Of it can be found lakes and streams
whose waters are tributary to the Red
River OF the North aud the Yellowstone,
thus reaching the sea thousands of miles
from the month Of the mighty Mlssiss-
ippi, which flows in trlckling brook
from Lake Glazier. This lake, dlscov-
cred to be the source of the grestest
river in The world by Captain Willard
Glazier, on July %, 1881, is about
mile and half In greatest diameter ,and
would be nearly round In shape but for
q single promontory; whose rocky
shores give 1t In outline the shape OF .
heart. The waters of the lake are ex-
ceedlDgly clear and pure, coming from
springs, some being at the bottom, but
the three most prominent rise a few
miles back in lows wet land, and flow
into the lake in little rills. On the
very point Of the promontory is spring
whose waters are as cold as ice, and at
which Captain Glazier's weary party
slaked their thirst while exploring the
shores of the new lake. So lonely is
the region around the lake that for four
teen days not even q redskin was seen,
and wearled by the hardships Of this
rough country, yet with a feeling ol
having added something to geographical
knowledge, Captain Glazier and bis
party were glad indeed to come into
contact again with their fellow-creat
