of measuring the hundred thousand part
of an inch, it was discovered that sever
al stars have appreciable parallex. The
star Alpha Centatri, In the Southern
hemlsphere, has one Of $40 of a second !;
and the famous star known as 81 Cygni,
the nearest to us of all the stars north
of the equator, has parallax as great.
A parallax of one second means that the
object is 206, 200 times as far from the
earth as the sun IL, SO that the two stars
named, having paraliax Of less than
one second, are more, than twenty thou
sand billions OF miles from MS. Ofcourse
1t is impossible for the finite mind to
grasp such distances as this; neyerthe-
less, the measurement shows what mar
vellous feats astronomical science can ac-
complish, and gives us also feeble con-
ception of the vase stretches of space
that lie between our planet and the
wheeling systems-for every fixed star
is the center of a system-that makes mp
the visible universe.

Poultney, VT, where, according to the
allegations, she led questionable life,
though he RENTED to her for over
twenty years 500 per month. A short
time ago he accidentally discovered that
at the time he married her she had
another husband-one Charles r. Gavin
still living, and that was upon this
ground that be bought suit for divorce.
Mrs. Waddingham denied that she was
ever married to Charles r.
Gavin, but that cousin
