Tho Great and the Little.

About 9 o'clock at night, and almost
directly overhead, one gees the
bright star of the first magnitude
known as Arcturus. Recent and most
careful investigations relating to this
star show some astonishing results.
That great sun is now known to be
distant from us 181 light years; that
is, it takes light from it, travelling
1860 miles in a second of time, 18l
yeurs to reach us, or ] ,061, 900, 900, 900,
900 miles away. This star is $4,000
times larger than our sun. If Arc.
turus were a hollow sphere, it would
hold $50, OJO, 900, 900 balls as largo as
the earth we inhabit. The star is row
coming nearly directly toward US at
the rate Of 10 miles o second,
but goes athwart our position about
$50 miles second, go that in
o few millions of years it will
wholly disappear from our range OF
vision. Such distances and such mag
nitudes are wholly beyond the coacep-
tion of finite minds. and are absolutely
appalling. What may this great solar
center have revolving around it in the
form of planets? And here we are,
puny mortals, upon this bit OF stellar
dust called the earth, plumipg our
selves with our penny-whistle doings.
The greatest of mortals and Of mortal
deeds are as nothing in the infinite
scheme of existences. Probably with
in five millions of years some great
star like Arcturus may strike and in
stantly vapoliie this eolar system.
Think of it, little man, for where will

eventually, TO reach the United States.

towards finding them homes, by any
of the associations for the relief Of
suffering Armenians, which have been
organized in England or America.
All are homeless AID in want and
