not have her hand, he should have
something as near to it as possible.
Stripping the rings from her fingers,
she gave them to him. the marriage
is to take place next week, and the loser
is TO be the best man. Y The girl kept

Photoa,rlap hine. Fifteen Million Stars.

A London Times spondentt
writes: "A magnificent 81 suggestion has
been made by French astronomers
Already in your columns the work done
by the photographic eyes Of science, dl;-
reeted toward the heavenly bodies, has
been dealt with. Blythe power OF III
Simultaneous vision which the photo
graphic eye, unlike the human eye,
possesses, the suns cloud laden surface
has been deiineated, despite the con-
slant fluctuations Of the air through
which the sun has to be viewed. BY
the power Of selecting special olors
wherewith to work. the Photographic
owe has drawn the corona when no
trace Of that solar appendage has been eel
visible to ordinary eyesight. Ehe del
icate features Of the star-clonds have
been depicted through the power which
the Photographic eye possesses OF see
ing more and more by long continued
gazing upon family luminous objects.
And now it is proposed to do What as
suredly no astronomer nor any band OF
astronomers could hope to affect even
if working for the whole dulation OF
the longest life. 1t is proposed to chart
in their true positions all the twenty
millions or so Of stars which are in
cluded in the first fifteen magnitudes,
90 that the astronomers of future gen
erations may know for certain the as
pect of the stellar heavens to that
vast depth, at least toward the close

the name retained long after the with
