New Stars.

The supposed unchanging face Of the
civilized and uncivilized races Of hu-

the popular mind the thousands of shin
ing points of light which stud heaven 8
azure canopy" when the angels "cur-
tain this sleeping world" are the SYM
bols Of immutability, Of Immortality
and of eternity.
We speak Of them "shining on for
ever" and Of their "unerring cycles, "
but astronomers know that such planet
ary bodies are not "unerring," that
they have not always existed, and that
in all probability they will not last
forever. Observations that have been
made since astronomy became recog-
nized as one Of the "exact sciences"
prove that stars are subject to crises-to
ups and downs-just the same as are
earthly things. They have been seen to
burn up and disappear like Whit of
vapor. Others have been known to fly
off at tangent and in an hour be mil
lions Of miles from the place they had
occupied since the dawn of civilization.
There are whole sections of the sky
now "bare" that were once occupied
with stars Of different magnitudes. On
the contrary, new stars have frequently
burst into view. The most prominent of
these are the one that appeared in 130
B. c., the one which in 1872 sprung up
in Cassiopeia and which outshone Venus
for time; the one which appeared in
the northern crown in 1866, and the
temporary stars of 1876, 1885 and 1899.
