WHY STARS SEEM RAYED.

An attempt to account for the fanil-
lar rayed or starlike appearance OF the
stars when seen by the naked eye is
made by W.<TIoltz in an article on the
yAppearance of Stars" which appeared
in Gesell. Wiss. Gottingen. Nachr.,
ath.-Phys. Klasse. He finds that all
stars show precisely the same rays, but
that in the case of the brighter stars
the rays are palmer and somewhat
longer 1t is further remarked that the
rays seen by the left and right eyes
diner, and that IL the head be turned
the rays are rotated in corresponding
manner. 1t is thus concluded that the
source of the rays is not in the stars
but in the eye itself, the middle of the
retina being not perfectly homogeneous
