be- easily shown that the area Of the

the area Of its disk Is about one-ffth Of

star sphere is consequently about 200,-
900 times the area Of the full moon. A
hotal Of 1o0,0o0,000 Of stars gives there
fore 500 stars to each space Of sky equal
b area to the full moon.
This seems q large number, but stars

obtained by experts.
The skate can be used on a rough road. up

SPONGE SUPPLY IN DANCER.
Carelessness OF Cuban Flshernsa Threat.
ems the Beds with Exit elton.

The sponge supply OF the Unite | States Is
eriously threatened by the wanton careless
hess OF the Cuban sponge tisaermen. For
several years they have been gathering the
lmall or infant sponges with those OF larger
growth. The inevitable result Is that the
Cuban sponge beds, from which the greater
portion Of sponges used in the United States
,ome, are threatened with total extinction.
Already prices have advanced, and a still
nrther increase 10 probable in Il very short
lime. The shipments OF spouges to dealers
vary greatly in size and time OF receipt. To
gather them II Is necessary that the water
should he absolutely clear, and If for any
reason the ocean is disturbed In more than
ordinary degree over the PONCE beds, tho
hsheenen must wait for clear water-per,
aaps a week, or even a month.
The sponges which come from Cuba ara
known as medium grade, the variety In gem
eral use. Florida and Nassau furnish a pro-
portion OF the supply OF this grade, but moth
Ing like the amount that comes from Cuba.
The best sponges are known as the Me1lterri-
mean variety, as they come from beds in the
sea OF that name. They are the heavy, whits
sponges, and are always high-priced. Even
the supply OF these. however, is much small
er than usual. So people eau make up thsir
minds that this Is not a veaf OF cheap
