upwards through the suns atmosphere.
They attain at least to an elevation
where the fearful intensity of the solar
heat has so far abated that, though
nearly all other elements may still re-
main entirely gaseous, yet the excep-
tionally refractory carbon begins to re-
turn to the liquid state. At the first
stage in this return, the carbon vapor
conducts itself just as does the ascend

about to be transformed into q visible
cloud. Under the influence OF chill
the carbon vapor collects into a myriad
