Earth Light.

In studying the amount of light In
the sky on starlit night. Lambertus
Yntema, in Germany, has reached the
interesting conclusion that the lumiu-
osity Of the sky is caused partly by
direct starlight and partly by some
other source OF light This latter he
proposes to call earth light. and he
suggests that Il may be due to a
permanent aurora attending the earth.
The light Is variable not only on diff
ferent night, but at different hours #
the same night. He has found II TO
be from seven to fifteen times the
amount OF mean starlight. but Il is
believed that this ratio is exceptional.
and does not prevail everywhere.
Some observations indicate that the
right has its origin close 10 the sur
face of the earth. 10 has been sug-
gested that Il may nave similar
origin to that OF the light emitted by
the coma of a comet.-London Globe.
