sion that what we are telling is exaggerated. But the last week

little consideration for their original values, the stocks must be
closed out quickly; and women who share tho garments will be
well repaid for aiding us in clearing out stocks during the pres
ent week. The variety is remarkably great for this season OF
the year, and the hints must necessarily be brief. Among the
most radically reduced sorts are the following.

A Boston woman, after selecting
some embroidery in one Of the big de-
partment stores, discovered that she
had not money, enough with, her. to
pay for it. She had never opened an
account in this particular shop, and
it was therefore agreed that the clerk
should put the goods aside until the
next day, when the purchaser should
come: for it with cash in hand.
When the woman returned the day
following to get her embroidery she
could not remember which Of the
saleswomen had waited upon her.
After puzzling over the matter for :
moment, however, she approac hed one
who looked vaguely familiar and ask
ed, Am the woman who bought

The population Of the earth at the
death Of the Emperor Augustus was

calculated that this globe has u popu-

There are seven great religions In the
world. The Christian religion has the.
greatest number of adherents, 563, 900, :
900. OF this number $50, 200, 600 are
Catholics and 213,OOO,OOO Protestants.
These two great divisions are subdivid
ed into innumerable sects differing
from one another on some point Of
dogma or church government. Next in;
importance comes the worship of an-5
cestors and Confucianism, whose fol
lowers are 2S3 1000 900 in number. This
belief is confined almost exclusively to
the Chinese and Japanese. In India
there are $4,000, 900 Brahmans. q. This
form of religion has decreased some
what during recent years, owing per-
haps to the continual ravages Of plague
and famine in that country. But it still

These, too, have their stronghold in

religions of the world is Taoism, with

pire and in Tibet. L. q
The next greatest religion, in point
Of numbers, to Taoism is the belief of
Japan, shintofsm. This has but 49,

now counts but half that number of
adherents. But, unlike the other great
religions, the followers Of the teachings
ofSMoses are not conferred in any par

| Worlds nnd Their Distribution I'm
| an InAnity of spacc-Distance Or the
Nearest External Universe.
There can be no subject more cal.
eulated to impress mans mind with
his own insignificance compared with
the overwhelming power and glory of
his Creator than the study and con.
temptation, of the armament in all Its
boundless infinity. 1t Is not to be
wondered ut that from the earliest
ages the subject has never failed to
exercise fascination over men and
that those who by their genius and
learning have most nearly succeeded
in solving its mysteries have always
been reverenced and esteemed to be
among the wisest men of their day.
More has been done within the last
fifty years than in all the rest Of the
worlds history toward the. piercing Of
the veil which shuts Off from our eyes
the beauties and mysteries of faroff
realms, and doubtless BY means Of, the
spectroscope and increased size In the
lenses Of our telescopes we shall be
enabled before long to unravel still
more secrets Of the universe.
The question as to whether space is
finite or infinite can never be satisfac-
torily argued out or indeed even
thought Of, for the human mind is in
capable; Of grasping the existence of
limit to space, even in its most alb
shact form, but the question Of the in
Unity 'of worlds and their distribution
IN the nhnity of spaced lies more close
~ within the scope Of human intellect,
for. we have many, material facts and
calculations to 60 upon In discovering
the probable answer to this most fas-
'einatinE Question. / -, =, =,
& Only rs far back az the seventeenth
century, astronomers placed the nnm-
.ber Of stars, in the universe as Z little
over 1,O00, but this was absurd, as the
fsal number visible to the naked eye is
5ah6ut 1000, tand Vperhaps treblsftt that
,npmber5 can be seen hyIpersopsgs b. with
exceptionally good eyesight. When the
heavens, however, are examihed

bic, stars is enornously Increased. & In

most powerful reveals as many as

cannot even DE likened to a grain Of
sand, on the -seashore, and yet + we
think the matter out carefully We shall
Zee that the number Of visible istars
cannot really be Infinite, for 'ifAsthey
were the heavensswould be a complete
blassg Of light. This, of course I'VE
know is far from being the case, and
indeed there cannot be any doubt that
In certain parts Of the heavens at least
the number Of visible stars is already
known, for even with the very stron-
gest telescopes there are blank spaces
which are absolutely devoid Of stars
below a certain magnitude or even the
,veriest trace Of nebulous light. AZ
