found than in the grange meetings which

others interested in the same pursuits that
he is and, by the exchange Of ideas, be
better fitted to carry on the work OF the
farm another season. The grange is one OF
the strongest factors for good that the
farmer has. Let him, therefore, do all that

ThA foot ball elevens of the Institute and
the high school lined up on the Colby cam
pus Saturday afternoon and played one
sided game of two 25-minute halves. The
Institute men were the heavier men, but
for lack of practice, or else for fear Of
the rough and tumble of the game, were
outplayed at every point by the high school
boys The high school made mostly end
plays, making large gains at each tfial,
while the Institute bucked the centre more
making small gains, and several times lost
the ball on inexcusable fumbles. Wien
time was called the score stool 90 TO in
favor of the high school. Touchiowns
were made by James. Alden and Brown "a,
and Wing kicked two goals. Ford, Colby

VIII XIII This Earth.
According to all probability, not
w~ithstanding all the circumstance
which threaten it, our planet will die,
not OF an accident, but a natural death,
says Camille Flammarion in L'Astron-
omie. That death will be the conse-
quence of the extinction of the sun in
twenty million years or more-perhaps
thirty-since its condensation at a rela-
lively moderate rate will give it on one
hand seventeen million years of exist
ence, while ON the other hand the in
evitable fall Of meteors into the sun
may double this number. Even if you
suppose the duration of the sun to be
prolonged to forty million years, it is
still incontestable hat the radiation
from the sun cools it, and that the tenn
perature of all bodies tends to an eoui-
Iibrium. The day will come when the
sun will be extinct. Then the earth
and all the other planets of our sys-
tenn will cease to be the abode of
life. They will be erased from the
great book and will revolve. black
