THE SUMS ATMOSPHERE.
Scientist Jansen Assures Us That 1t Is De-
void of Oxygen.

Scientist Jansen Assures Us That 1t Is De-
void of Oxygen.
Science has predicted that one day the
fires of the sun will cool. AS this cooling
process goes on the temperature of the en-
velope of the body will be affected This
latter contains, we know, great quantities
of hydrogen. If, at the same time it con-
tains oxygen, necessarily when certain
point has been reached in the reduction of
the temperature the two gases will unite
and form vapor. A greater disaster to our
solar system than screen Of vapor about
thebun could not be imagined. In this fog
the heat of the SUMS rays would be alb
sorbed and the death of the planets from
cold greatly hastened.
NJ. Jansen resolved to find out If this lot
was awaiting the earth, if her future was
to be cut short by veil of vapor. That is,
he resolved to find out the origin of the
oxygen lines in the solar spectrum. But
how could it be doneP "How separate the
certain action of the terrestrial atmosphere
from the hypothetical action of the solar
atmospheric"
There was one evident method. If he
could reach the limit of the earth's atmos-
phere and there examine the solar spec
trum, the question could be solved at once.
If the spectrum there was free from oxy-
gen marks, why then those observed at
the surface were due to absorption as the
ray passed through the earth's atmosphere.
Not being able to reach this limit, NJ
Jansen decided to ascend as high as posi-
BILE above the earth's surface for observa-
ton. If he found that the lines grew paler
or disappeared, and that the degree of the
diminution in intensity and in number cor
responded to the difference in the quantity
of oxygen in the earths atmosphere at and
below the point of observation, then he
would be justified in concluding that in
reaching the limits of the envelope Cthe
earth's atmosphere all the lines would dis
appear from the spectrum, and that con-
sequently the atmosphere of the sun con-
tanned no oxygen.
1t was in October, 1888, that the first ex-
pertinent was made. The place chosen was
the station on the route to the summit of
Mount Blanc, called the Grands Mulets,
10000 feet above sea level. The difficulty
of making this ascent so late in the season
the refuge at the Grands Mulets was al
ready closed, and quantities of snow had
fallen-was great for any one but an expert
enced Alpinist 4
But NJ Jansen is not easily baf1ed He
called a company of picked guides and laid
out campaign which resulted successfully,
the party reaching the station after 10 hours
of toll, over a road which in the season does
not require more than four or five
If the ascent had been severe, the reward
was morethan a compensation The wealth
er proved to be favorable, and NJ Jansen
succeeded in making series of experiments
which led him to announce to the Academy
of Science: The lines and bands of the
spectrum due to oxygen result exclusively
from the earth's atmosphere The solar
has nothing to do with the phe-
nomenon. 1t is exclusively telluric. Mo

FOR DIG oe MIG.

Around the mouse in eddying gusts
The wind shrieked boldly;
Adown my pane in sleet and snow
Great drops FLASHED coldly.
But soft through the hall,
Past bolt and bar,
Came the tones of a sweet guitar,
And the voice of my Norsk maid singing:
"Flyder saa fri, flyder saa fri,
Golgatha strommen, den flyder saa fri,
Flyder saa fri for dig OF mig."*
My life seemed chilled as one apart,
All good denied me;
The rain fell cold and pierced my heart,
No guide beside me.
But rare gift of hope,
Like the herald star,
Was borne on the note of that sweet guitar.
And in words that my Norsk maid was singing;
"Flyder saa fri, flyder saa fri,
Golgatha strommen, den tlyder saa fri,
Flyder saa fri for dig og mig"
Showing so free, flowing SO free,
River of heaven, flowing so free,
Flowing for you and me.
