with long summer before them, will
lot worry any more than we do at the
time of our summer solstice. Even
The most confirmed and despised pes
simist in Kaiser Wilhelm's realm
would find 1t difficult to discover any
thing to, growl about in an event SO
thoroughly satisfactory to everybody.
Even the Antarctic continent, passing
from daylight to a night of months
duration, will send up no protest,
for there is nobody there to do the
protesting. Solstice, the sun stand-
ing still, may be well applied to the
season. From Dec l 4 to Dec. 80, the
movement of the sun southwark and
return only covers as much of the
latitude as is marked by the suns
disc. In March at the time of the
equinox the same distance is covered
in little more than one day.
On Christmas Day, which our pa
gan ancestors celebrated as the time
of the return of the sun, the sun has
| risen only one-tifteenth part of his di-
ameter, which makes sufficiently
amazing the fact that this small gain
| should have been noted by a people
without books or instruments. The
seven days before and after the sol
stice were the halcyon days of the
ancients of the Mediterranean shores,
when the fair and peaceful days per-
mitted the Halcyon, alias the king
fisher, to build its nest upon the sur
face of the waves.
The constellation which receives
most attention during December is
glorious Orion We have only to look
toward the east and the mighty hunt
er at once forces our attention. Three
stars of the second magnitude form
ing row, each star separated from
its neighbor by about three moon
breadths-this is the Belt of Orion
The Sword Is a short row OF minor
stars, seemingly depending from the
Belt. The whole is enclosed in a
considerable distance by four bright
stars forming a vast quadrilateral. OF
these two, Bertelgeuse and Rigel, are
of the first magniture. Bertelgeuse is
the one farther north and stands
higher in the sky when rising.
They present the finest possible
contrast of color, Bertelgeuse being
of fiery red, while Rigel is a pure,
dazzling white. The Belt of Orion
points upward toward the red star
Aldebaran in the constellation Tau
rus. An hour in advance of this star
is the little group known as the Plei-
AIDES, in the same constellation. High
er up in northeastern sky is the
constellation of Auriga, or the Chari-
oteer, having the very bright star Ca
pella. Near this star is the small,
but beautiful pair of stars, separated
by only moonbreadth, and known
as the Kids.

THE STARS IN DECEMBER.

The beautiful evening star, which
has claimed our admiration for sew
eral months, is now of the past The
planet Venus, which has sustained
that role, has swung around on the
| other side of the sun, and now rises
and sets before instead of after the
great luminary. The result is that
Venus is now morning star and in
very few days can be seen, brightly
beautiful, rising just ahead of the
sun. She will rise earlier each morn
| ing throughout the month. 1t will
mot be until the last days of the COM
| ing year that Venus will again APP
pear in the evening sky. During the
few days that Venus is lost to our
isight, on account of proximity to the
sun, our own planet will present an
enhancing sight to the neighbor
world whenever its inhabitants can
see through the dense clouds which
float in their atmosphere. The earth
now appears to them as star of daz-
zllng brightness, far brighter than
venus ever appears to us, while the
moon appears as another star, con-
| stantly shifting disposition in rela-
| tion to the brighter star.
AS the earth is with reference to
Venus, so is Jupiter with reference to
| the earth. The earth is swinging
| around between the majestic planet
and the sun, reaching opposition on
the 2Sth, and Jupiter's broad disc, be-
| ing fully Illuminated, shines to its
most splendid advantage. Four hun
dred million miles away, it yet shines
with brilliancy greater than that of
any of the fixed stars, and among the
planets is second only to Venus. Jupi-
ter has a diameter more than ten
times as great as that of the earth,
and the disc therefore, presents SUI
perficial area more than a hundred
times as/great. If his diameter were
no greater than that of the earth or
Venus, he would indeed be visible to
the naked eye, but only as a star of
low magnitude. One of the moons,
by which Jupiter is accompanied, may
be seen on clear evening when it
happens to be at its greatest angular
distance from the primary body. 1t
shines as a star of between the fifth
and sixth magnitude, and if it were
not so near to the blazing planet,
would be readily visible. Jupiter is,
if we may speak so irreverently, only
half-baked planet, and it is possible
that some of the light which renders
him such a conspicuous object in the
evening sky, comes from his own fiery
condition.
This, as well as the other planets,
is in the stage through which the
earth, Venus, Mars and Mercury pass
ed tens of millions of years ago, when
the atmosphere of the earth, that was
tla,, 10 don with cloudc Of tha VanOrs
of metals from which poured rains of
molten metal to be dissipated and

surrounded by cloud system drawn
on a gigantic scale, the clouds being
ranged in band-like masses parallel to
the direction to the planets rotation.

through a dense atmosphere, electrl-

SunstrOke Treatment.

INSOLATION THE SERIOUS FORM.
Hesrt stroke or insulation Is the Sc
rious form Of this troubl., and the one
to be most carefully guarded against.
In cases Of real insolation the face be-
comes purplish, eyes bloodshot. veins
swollen and corded, and the skin dry
and burning to the touch. It IL not al
ways fatal. but many of those whose
lives are saved are ever afterwards in
vallds. With brain power more or less
impaired. The effect Of the suns heat
seems to be most marked on the brain
and spinal marrow. When real inso.
lation occurs, the brAin becomes SO
rested that the human cheat CENTER"
controlling the production Of bodily
heat, IL affected, and the temperature
rises from the healthy mark, about 963
to Is high % 10 degrees ana over,
and often Keeps on rising for some time
after death. The cheat center" lies at
the hack Of the head, and should be
protected from the direct rays Of the
sun.
insulation Is 40 dangerous that
physician should be called Is soon 40
possible. While waiting the doctors
arrival much good can be done and life
often saved by applications Of Ice to
the head and spinal column. It Is best
broken in small pieces and placed In
cloth or rubber bags, but when these
are not to be had ice can be placed d.
lectly about the head and neck.
PROTECTION or HEAD AND SPINE.
Workmen and others exposed to the
direct rays Of the sun should have their
heads well protected and should wear
wooden next to the skin. A very use
full precaution is pad Of cotton pat
ting or flannel sewed along the back Of
the undergarment so rs to cover OF
protect the spine.
Conditions are most favorable for
attacks OF sunstroke In what is called
ssmuggy" weather. As long % perspira-
ton IL free. people can stand . high
degree of heat, as tile evaporation OF
the moisture on the body tends to cool
lit; but in "muggy" weather the excess
of humidity in the atmosphere checks
evaporation. Then, when the tempera-
ture approaches the normal bodily
heat of 9S4 degrees there Is trouble.
People should be careful not to ex-
pose themselves mr. necessarily In hot
weather Of any kind, but when the con-
ditions are such as here named they
should be extraordinarily careful.
GOOD OLD RULES.
It is we'll to bear In mind the old
rules: Keep cool as to temper and your
body will not get 50 hot; avoid all al
cohcli; drinks; eat Less than usual and
more simply; walk on the shady side
OF the street; avoid over exertion; let
the cir circulate freely about the head,
either by frequent removal of the hat
or by wearing perforated head cover
ing.
Insulation is more far-reaching and
dangerous in its effects than most PEG.
Die realize; therefore, doctor should
be called at once to any one with the
Symphonic prescribed as indicating
heat stroke or true insulation.
