CLOUDS.

Clouds are simply form of water
made visible by the cooling of the air
which previously held the water in
the form of invisible vapor. Every
cloud may be regarded as the top of
an invisible column or current thrust
ing its way into a colder body of air.
The comparative altitude of a cloud
may be judged, when there is no time
or opportunity to make exact measure
ments, from its form and outline, its
shape or shadow, its apparent size and
movement, perspective effect, and the
length of time it remains Illuminated
after sunset. By the last method Mr..
Inwards states that some clouds have
been at least ten miles above the sur
face of the earth. The cloud velocities
at high attitudes have been carefully
noted at the Blue Hill observatory,
Massachusetts,, United States, and
show practically, that at about five
miles height the velocities are three
times as fast in the summer and six
times in the winter as the velocities
of the currents on the earth's surface.

When she realizes that she hasn't

When she loses a train. 1t would

epithets.
When she goes into her room in the
dark and while fumbling around for
matches sticks her fingers into sixteen
different cold-cream jars.
When she is about to begin to curl
her hair. And when she is about to
powder her nose until it resembles a
plaster-of-paris nose.
When she tries to walk upstairs and
finds that she is only meandering up
the front of her new tailor-made gown.
When she has to put things that
look like rat-traps in her sleeves to
make her sleeves stick out, and when
the rat-traps dig roseate sketches on
her arms.
When she thinks how she would
get up in street car and give poor,
tired out woman seat and then run

NEW ASTRONOMICAL THEORY
BY THOMAS HENDERSON, M.
Morning Herald.

Morning Herald.
| Observers, practical astronomers
and writers disagree in regard to the
distances of the heavenly bodies.
Human ingenuity is too limited to
construct any instrument sufficiently
accurate to define perfectly those i'm
mense measures. Hence, in stating
our new astronomical theory, which
we are about to propose, we shall aim
only to use round numbers and ap-
proXimations.
The generally received opinion To-
Gates the sun in one of the foci of the
earth's elliptical orbit. Our view re-
presents the sun as revolving annually
around small circle, with the earth
| always at uniform distance, except
when the latter is disturbed by the
| occasional proximity of other bodies.
We do not assert, positively, that our
theory is correct but it is novel and
plausible, and in accord with the fact
which we claim to be the first to have
discovered, that every ellipse has
circular centre, from which every
point in its periphery is equidistant.
We challenge the reader to find a
demonstrable refutation. AS this
principle of the ellipse is involved in
our new theory, some preliminary ex-
plantations of it are necessary, and are
here presented.
The centre of circle is point. An
ellipse also has centre. The centre of
an ellipse is an enlarged point or GEN.
trail circle.
Half the difference of the two dia-
meters of an ellipse equals the diane
ter of the central circle.
The difference of the semi-transverse
diameter of an ellipse and the radius
of its central circle equals the radius
of the ellipse, and twice this equals its
mean diameter.
When one end of it's radius is carried
around the periphery of the ellipse,
and the other end around the circum-
ference of the central circle leach end
moving in the same direction and on
the same side of the conjugate, but on
opposite sides of the transverse, and
each crossing the same axis at the
same time), it covers all the area or
surface outside of the circle, and also
covers the circle twice that is, in pass
ing over the entire ellipse sweeps twice
over that part of it within the
circle. This may be illustrated by
tram. When an ellipse is formed with
that instrument the central point, be-
tween the two pivots, describes an ex-
act circle, and the moving arm of the
tram represents the radius of the
ellipse.
Why not base a new astronomical
theory on these data and apply the
principles involved to the reciprocal
laws that control the sun and the
earth? By the most reliable authority,
the longer or transverse axis or dame
ter of the earth's elliptic orbit around
the sun is estimated to be about 1885,
794, 900 miles, and the shorter, or con-
jugate, 1856, 758, 900 miles. The diane
ter of the central circle of an ellipse of
these dimensions is

GOOD NIGHT.

Pale in the amber flooded west
A horned moon dips low,
And soft through silver silences
The rose winds family blow.
Yet still horned moon shall lend
A lance of lingering light
To cross the wind, to cross the dusk
And give my love good night.
The long lake ripping through its reeds
Hath lilies all ablow,
At fall of dew each sleepy flower
Folds up her leaves of snow.
Yet one fair lily bud shall wake
To smile all virgin white
Across the dark, across the dew
And give my love good night.
The light may fail, the lily fade,
The lightning's lurid glow
Flame in the sky, the rose buds rise
To storms that rudely blow.
Yet constant still, as rose to June,
This heart shall take delight
Across the dark, across the world
To give my love good night.
