Perpetual Darkness.


Perpetual Darkness.
The majority of persons do not
know that the sky is blue on account S
of the thousands and thousands OF
millions of atoms of dust floating in
the atmosphere Were it for the dust
we would. lack light on Mother Earth
and the heavens would be an lnky
black.
Suppose a room absolutely dark,
save a hole through one of the shutters.
A ray of light will dart through the
small opening and one can observe the
tiny particles of dust dancing in that
bright beam of light. As a matter OF
fact it is not the eight we see, out
simply a reflection caused by these
notes of dust.
! AS it is with this shaft of light IN
darkened room, so it is on large
scale throughout the air. The many
millions of particles OF dust eaten tne
light, rejecting it back and forth from
one to another, so making the at
mosphere luminous.
1t is for this reason that were it not
for the dust the sky would appear
black, as it does at night when there Is
no moon. The sun would appear as
an immense glowing ball. The moon
and stars would be visible throughout
the day. Everything would appear
different. Where the light touched
ithe eyes would be dazzled by the brill
Iliancy. Ths mellow softness OF the
shadows would become an intense
black and the outline of objects harsh
and angular.
The sunlight, which has been analyz-
ed by means of the spsctroscope, con-
sists of all the colors of the rainbow,
their total forming the white light.
This white light going through a
crystal prism is broken up into its
seven components, the so-called fun
damental colOrs. These seven distinct
, cOlors of light are the result of the
