heavens will be we'll repaid for his res- olution. There are thousands of won derful objects. to examine which he requires only a small telescope and cheap handbook of the stars. and with these in his possession he can turn from clusters to nebulas and to dou- ble stars, and to planets as the rising and setting of the constellations ever brings new wonders to his view "A clear moonless night should always be selected for this work. The first two weeks of June will be very suitable ones; toward the end of the month the moon will be much too bright to per init of the observation of faint ob- jects.
 The Planet Mercury.
 On June 27 the little planet Mercury will be at it's greatest distance rom the ann and may be found almost due west soon after sunset. If the observer oe- tects here a bright star, almost iost Ill inc sunset glow, he may be quite con fident that he has detected this littie- known. rapidly moving body.

 The Morning Star.
 If the observer will wal until mid night, the rising of the stars will bring those groups to view which lie beyond the eastern border of our map, and he will then find Mars in excellent posi- tion for observation. It is now draw ing nearer to the earth, and during the month will increase in apparent size from 19 to 24 seconds. Toward morning the beautiful planet Saturn will rise. During the first week in April we passed through the plane of .Saturn's rings, but now we are just little be- low them. We see them so nearly edgewise that their apparent length is twenty times their width; they will look like fine, bright line in the tel escope.
 Fig. 2 shows the appearance of the heavens with the position of Mars and Saturn at 3 a. nj. on June l. The SCOT pion is now just setting in the West. the Milky Way passes over head and Venus, the beautiful morning star, is just rising. This is now a narrow silvery crescent in the telescope; on July 25 1t will pass between the earth and sun. and a few days afterward will shine out in the early evening.

To one on the daylight side of the planet the disc of the sun appears seven times ss large as 1t does to us; we can readily imagine that with this immense ball forever pouring down it's heat upon Mercury. the tmperature must become very high. Some obscure markings have apparently been seen on the planet at various times. but these are quite uncertain. Fig. is the map drawn at Lowell Observatory. It is the opinion of the observances there that the. planet is as dead as our. moon Is. without air or water. and that the shadings shown are natural markings. best explained as the results of cool ing. But the observations are very difficult and the reality of the mark ings Is by no means certain.
 The Longest Day.
 On June 22. at a. m, the sun enters the sign Cancer and summer begins It will not. however, enter the constel- lation Cancer until a month later. This is because the equator of the sky, c. D.. Fig. l. is slowly changing its posi- tion on the sphere. When the sun tSoCheS tHS tqudtoF Al A. on the <ST0 or next September. the days and nights will balance and the autumn will be- gin. The sun is then said to be in the sign Libra. But the point A is no longer in the constellation Libra. It is moving toward the west and will complete the circuit of the sphere in 26.o00 years. This slow westward mo- tion of the equator is the so-called Pre- cession of the Equinoxes in which some astronomers have asserted that the true cause of the glacial epoch lies, and also even the cause of the distri- button of the land and water on the earth.

THE PASSING OF THE WEST.

Within a few short years-years

inhabitant" of this section of the coun-
try, there was no "civiliZed west" No
settlement was to be found west Of
the Red River valley. The Indian, and
his companion, the American bison,
reigned supreme. Now the former is,
to all intents and purposes, extinct,
or almost so. The latter is completely
exterminated. Where once the wild
whoops of the Red Man in his hide
Gus war dances resounded over the
vast prairies and the hoofs of immense
herds of buffaloes trampled the short
grass, now wave acres upon acres of
cultivated wheat. The old pioneer,
who yearns for the return of former
conditions must be disappointed, for
they are and will be, no more. In
this connection James Foley, probably
