Ike rows OF shining buttons on this
young middy's uniform-in this way II

These disks are exactly like small
bullsaye lanterns with regular lenses

ASTRONOMY AND PHOTOGRAPHY.


The Combination That Resulted In the
Discovery of q New star.
Many people imagine that new stars are
always discovered by looking at the sky
with a telescope, but the idea Is erroneous
Many Of the most important modern dis
coveries are made by photography. A pho
tographic plate Is placed at the end Of a tel
escope where the eyepiece usually Is, and
the stars record themselves on this instead
OF on the retina OF the eye. When the as
tronomer examines the plate, he carefully
notes every object upon IL and is not likely
to miss a new star. That Is how Mrs. Nina
Fleming discovered the star Nova Norma,
though she was at Harvard university. In
Massachusetts,, and the star In the South
American sky. 8 degrees below our horizon.
Mrs. Fleming Is young Scotchwoman
who has been doing astronomical work at
Harvard for the past six or seven years.

Louis IL Grand In Paris. After completing
his studies In these schools he prepared
himself for the higher normal school ex-
aminafions, which, however, he failed TO
pass. The war OF 1870 prevented him from
making second attempt, and he turned
his attention to literature. in which field he
soon attracted attention by his critical ar
