tlow THE STARS ARE COUNTED
Use Made of the Microscope and Of
Photographic Plates.

4 - H#. rTOIl tHt LOHuOu lazy MALL
The gigantic but fascinating task
which j. Franklin Adams. f. r. A. s.,
has undertaken Of counting the myriad
stars In the heavens and assigning to
each Its proper magnitude is n which
demands the quality OF almost infinite
patience.
i Mr.. Franklin Adams has already Sc
cured Photographic plates covering the
whole OF the southern hemisphere, and
these with the series dealing with the
northern hemisphere, will number
more than 200. Each plate, which Is Is
Inches squar records from 10000 to
A50,00 starry images, and on a rough
calculation the total number Of stars
photographed will prove to be about
3D. 00, 900.
The task of counting the stars on the
plates has already been commenced,
and that work together with the cata-
Aoguing will take another ten years,
The method of counting the stars on
the plates was explained by r. ].
Mitchell, Mr.. Franklin Adams chief
assistant @4t @s ..u.,. 49,. ..,.
.FIrst taking one of the plates" said
Mr.. Mitchell, 1--WE move 1t across q
graduated grating contained in a field
OF a high powered microscope. A hori-
Eontal strip in the grating is then ex-
amined and the stars in this small
area are counted from left to right.
OF course ii is impossible to insure
absolute accuracy, for there is the pos
sibility that a star may be counted
twice or missed altogether.
'rrhen there is h difficulty pre-
scented by mechanical specks on tho
plates, which may at first be taken for
stars: but Mr.. Franklin-Adams has q
method by which all stars above the
tenth magnitude "a be differentiated
from dust specks. Mr.. Franklin-Adams
and his assistants check one another
In the counting, but there is always
b slight difference in the totals, due of
course to the personal equation as rep
resented by the operator.
Merely to count the stars On an
average plate, apart from noting their
photographic magnitude. occupies the
time OF two men for more than a fort
might IL they work seven hours a day.
In taking the plates Mr.. Franklin
Adams used a triple achromatic ten
inch lens working at F4. In the north
ern hemisphere the minimum exposure
was 2 hours and 20 minutes and in
the southern, with its clearer atmos-
phere. 2 hours"

Agricultural Experts From Japan.

From the San Francisco Chronicle.
r. r. Magazine. a japanese expert
on agriculture, who has been employed
by the mikado's government at Ear
mosa for the last few years, arrived
in this city recently on the steamer
Asia on his way to Washington to
Investigate h methods OF the United
States department OF agriculture,
I'VE have. In Formosa, over soc, 600
acres under cultivation he said as he
stepped Off the steamer, and we want
to find out how the United States
goes about 1t to improve the condI-
ton of its fertile, land so that we can
improve conditions In our country. /
shall go to Washington soon to get
some advice from your authorities as
to how to organize our department.
Tn my country we can raise corn,
rice, sugar, tobacco. sweet potatoes,
green crops. barley, wheat And beans.
In fact we can raise almost any crop.
but the emperor realizes that we must
do something for the soil from which
we are, demanding so mach. We can
not continue to take everything from
the soil and put nothing back. I hope
to stay In the country several months
and return home to my native land by
way Of Europe

IFS Stomach Cata,7A

Some people are thin and always "a
main thin, from temperamental re-.
sons. Probably in such cases nothip,
can be done to change this personal
popularity. >.
But there are o large number Of pen
pie who get thin, or remain thin, who
naturally would be plump and leshv
but for some digestive arrangement.
Thin people lack in adipose tissue.
Adipose tissue is chiefly composed Of
fat. (
Fat IL. derived from the oily constit.
uents OF food.
The fat-making foods are called bv
the psychologist, hydrocarbons. Thi.
class OF foods r not digested in tia
stomach at all. They are digcsted In
the duodenum, the division OF the all.
mentary canal just below the stomach.
The digestion Of Fat il mainly, If not
wholly, the work of the pancreatc
Juice. This Juice L. OF alkaline resC.
ton, and In rendered inert by the add.
ton Of acid. A hyperacidity Of tn.
digestive fluids of the stomach passing
down into the ~duodenum, destroys
the panpreatic fluid for digestive pur.
poses. Therefore, the fats are not di.
gested or emulsihed, and the system ia
deprived OF it's due proportion of oily
constituents. Hence, the patient grows
thin.
The beginning Of the trouble is q ca.
tarrhal condition of the stomach which
uses h~yperacidity Of the gastric
juices. This hyperacidity is caused By
fermentation Of food in the stomach.
When the food IL taken into the stom.
ach, II the process Of digestion does
not begin Immediately, acid fermenta.
ton will take place. This creates a
hyperacidity Of the stomach juices
which in their turn prevent the pan.
crestic digestion of the oils, and the
emactation results.
ATdose OF Peruna before each meal
hastens the stomach digestion. By
hurfying digestion, Peruna prevents
fermentation Of the contents of the
stomach, and the psncreatic Juice is thus
preserved in its normal state. 1t then
only remains for the patient to eata
sufficient amount of fat-forming foods,
and the thinness disappears and plump.
ness takes its place. 7.

And the faint staccato one

And the glowing embers shed
Their mellow light along the splashinR

The w~hip-poor-wiI Is calling
