One Of the most beautiful sights in the
heavens for Il long time has been the great
brilliRncy of the two planets, jupiter and
Venus, seen almost in conjunction in the
western sky for the past four or five nights.
The event is one that has not occurred for
many years and it will be many more be-
fore the same can be viewed again. AL

the planets are in reality over 40Q, 900, 600
miles distant from each other, SO that their
wooing, as all the poets both ancient and
modern call the episode now transpiring.
is of the most p!atonic character. They
will continue to separate until in a short
time Jupiter will have been lost in the
brilliancy Of the setting sun, IL Venus
will rise in the heavens until juno, when
she will have reached her. greatest height
and will reign the star OF the night.
