1t is a mighty good thing for that

notoriety before its appearance, for
it would have lost out afterwards,
had it been depending on it's own
celestial beauty. Regardless of

say, 1t appears to be very much of a
nine spot to the common masses.
and would have to take a back seat
with any of the brighter stars.
Whether it is because of that lost

nobody seems to know, but that
