imagine that a new celestial visitant had
appeared in our system. As she hung
upon the western horizon, her great ef-
fulgence ana apparent increase in magni-
tude have given her almost the appear
ance of a radiant globe OF softly glowing
fire. and inquiries have actually been mace
whether his beautiful light IN the heav-
ems was not the result OF new electrical
experiments made by Mr.. Edison. The
Wizard OF Menlo Park has done many
wonderful things, but he has not yet Gre
ated a star. AS the Sun has explained
several times during the past two months.
this is a period Of great brilliancy with
Venus. There is nothing new or irregu-
lar In these manifestations. IL is the
lady planets time for being bright-possl-
bly, her gay season. when the heavenly
belle arrays herself in her finest jewels
and puts on the most dazzling robes OF
glory she can find in the sky. According
TO recent astronomical theory she IS

she is sim beautiful I'm death and that
