A learned German scientist, IN the
course of an exhaustive study OF the
evolution of the sense of color. dtscov
cred that the rainbow has not looked
the same to men in all ages. He found
that it was at first thought to be all

rainbow seemed purple white. AT
later period Xenophon saw in it "a
purple cloud, red and yellow green
Two centuries after this Aristotle dis
tinguished three colors-red, green
and blue-and was able sometimes to
see yellow between the red and green
Three hundrd years after Aristotle
came Ovid, to whom the rainbow was
"a thousand dazzling colors, which tn
eve cannot distinguish separately
But the tricolor division persisted un
