that you are badly mistaken, and that
in all probability you have never in

":silvery sister world BY way Of
solution let us see what it takes to con
stitute full moon in the exact sense
of the term: A full moon occurs only
when our obsequious attendant is 1SO
deg. of longitude from the sun, Old
Sol and the earth being on the eclip-
tic. But the moons orbit is inclined
to the ecliDtic at an angle of 5 deg.
3 minutes Al seconds, and is, therefore,
never on the ecliptic except when at
it's nodes or crossings. .., ~ ...G~
This being the case, what we call
the circular disk of the moon full
moon) lacks considerable of being an
exact circle, being what astronomers
term "in a state of gibbosity," and is
never perfect disk except when a
full NOON happens exactly at the time
when Luna is crossing the ecliptic,
at which time she must necessarily be
centrally eclipted. One of our best
present day astronomers, in concluding
an article of much merit on the same
subject, says: 1--WE therefore conclude
that a real full moon, one having 4
perfect circle, has rarely, if ever, been
seen.,,'

the men, when Blggs pulled a purse
out Of his pocket and threw it over
Mr.. Ambler's shoulder and bit Oman
