In the hands of Schiaperrli, Lowell,
Pickering, and few others, the tele-
scope has revealed to us long, dark
stripes which Schiaperrli called ca
nails, and the discovery of which may
well be numbered among the most
noteworthy astronomical achieve
ments of modern times. They are in
truth the life lines of the planet. Their
existence was doubted for years be-
cause no astronomer, with the excep-
ton of Schiaperrli, who saw them
first, had been able to catch even a
glimpse Of them. Long after, a few
painstaking observers at last succeed
ed in discerning them (for they ap-
pear only in flashes, as 1t were, by
reason of the currents in our atmos-
phere), their reality was doubted.
Some of the very men who had
seen them refused to believe their
own eyes, arguing that the stripes
were merely optical illusions induced
by eyestrain. Two years ago, Mr..
Lampland, of Professor Lowells staff,
performed the very remarkable feat
of photographing them, thereby for
ever disposing of the assumption OF
their illusory character"

An Experiment in Ethics.

Superintendent Greenwood, of Kan
sas City, has been trying another ex-
pertinent. 1t consisted in the trial of
hypothetical Charlie by his peers.
Charlie has thrown down his slate and
refused to do his sums; further, he
has added contempt of court to his
other misdemeanor by saying that he
didn't care. What is to be Charles
fate? This is the question put to the
pupils in several schools by Mr.. Green
wood. The pupils made written re-
ports of the case. There was practi-
cal unanimity that Charlie was bad,
yes very bad, boy But the punish
ment that should fit the crime-that
was the point of diversion. The pun
ishment ranged from the simple CIV
ing of zero to the extreme of send
ing him to the Office"
The comments and suggested pun
ishments from one school will give
