SHALL POWER BE CORKERED.

From THE Giant Trust of the

February Metropolitan Magazine:
The two primary factors in our
industrial existence are land power:
land TO produce food, the materials
for clothing and shelter, and to
yield up useful metals and mine
rails; power to work up the raw
products of the land into various
forms for the convenient use of
mankind. transportation is
sometimes included as a third
element of equal Importance, but
modern transportation depends

and consequently is subordinate 10

There is no prospect of a mo-

A Substitute for MatrimOny

Successful business girls and

Richardson in Woman's Home
Companion for February, ARE too

The girl who earns twelve, fif-
teen or twenty dollars a week sets
for herself a standard of living,
dress and small luxuries which
would require a husband earning
twenty-five, thirty and fifty dollars
respectively. She regards as
necessities what her mother con-
sldered as luxuries. If man who
is earning only as much as the girl
or few dollars more a week asks
her to marry him, he knows that
the girl must either deprive her
self of some things she has grown
tie regard as necessities or she must
continue to work. And there is
many home-hungry young man
today too proud to allow his wife
to work.
Through agitation and her own
honest effort at desk, counter and
loom, woman is rapidly nearing
the goal of equality in work and
wages with men. Her services
are worth today as much as those
of the man who might marry her
if her services were worth less"

BOUNDING THE INFINITE.
Are the Number Of Stars In Spac,
Without Limit?

Are the Number Of Stars In Space
Without Limit7
How Gany stars are there? Ii Is not
known, but most astronomers believe
the number Is not unlimited The ar
gument is that with an infinite uni.
verse Of stars the heavens would be
one uniform blaze OF light The more
distant stars are. OF course. DINNER;
some are too far away TO affect the
naked eye at all, but no matter how
slight the units an infinite number OF
them would produce the effect de
scribed.
AS there is no uniformly blazing sky.
the number of stars, though possibly
Immensely great, must be limited.
This argument is supplemented in a
recent astronomical paper by similar
one drawn from gravitation. Every
star, no matter how distant, exercises
its own power OF attraction on every
other heavenly body. Including our
earth.
However. as the earth's center is
farther away from the attracting body
than its surface is, particles on the
earth's surface are attracted with
greater force than those at the center,
and the practical result is to lessen the
force with which the earths mass is
held together.
Now, If the number Of stars is inf
mite, this decrease would be so great
that weight on the earth would practi-
cally cease TO exist. Moreover, the
same conditions would prevail every
where throughout boundless universe
and probably all masses would be dis
rupted. That this result does not &C.
cur Is a proof, we are told, that the
number Of heavenly bodies in exist
ence is not infinite.
These arguments make certain as
sumptions that may or may not be
granted; they can neither be proved nor
disproved. The argument from light as
sumes that light waves are transmit
ted through space without loss; that
from grayitation assumes that the
same thing is true for gravitationaI
attraction.
II light or gravitation is absorbed or
lost In some way when passing from
star TO star, the number Of stars may
be infinite after ALL At its best the
speculation is more curious than con
