THE TEMPERATE FEBRUARY Moon.

The moon will make amends for get
ting full twice last month by not getting
full at all tins month. That is per-
haps the humorous aspect, bur there is
more int, resting one in the fact that a
month without full moon only happens
once in about twenty years. The irregu-
larity is not in in the moons habits, for
they are of the greatest regularity. 1t
is the Irregularities of the calendar that
place Luna in this false position. The
interval between full moons is always
twenty-nine and half days, so that
February is the only month that possi-
bly, can be without a full moon, and
that only when the preceding full moon
comes on the Both or 3lst of January.
The last full moon was on Jan. 81, and
the moon will not be full again until
March 2.
