The year 1911 will be a most interest ing one to those who enjoy watching the heavens. Except at it's very beginning two very bright planets will always be visible in the evening sky, and at one time no less than four may be seen at once. This is in strong contrast to the year which has just ended. during the greater part of which the brighter planets all were morning stars. The aspect of these beautiful bodies as they change their positions with reference to each other and move over the heavens among the stars will be most interesting and striking, even to those who know little about astronomy
 During the whole of January the only bright planet in a favorable position in the early evening is the beautiful Saturn, which shines out high up in the heavens. little west of the meridian. But al ready the far more brilliant Venus has really appeared and as 1t climbs steadily upward among the stars it will grow brighter and brighter, until 1t far exceeds in brilliancy any other object in the heavens. At this time many inquiries will ask the astronomers and the news papers to tell them what the very bright star is which is shining in the west.
 On January Venus Is so small dis tance to the east of the sun that it sets only 3S minutes after sunset and even by the end of the month 1t will have moved out so little that this time Is only in- creased to about one hour. It may then be seen shining in the twilight glow, low down. near the ground, in the south west. But after this Its motion becomes very rapid, and by July it has mounted so high that it is seen for more than three hours after sunset. It attains it's greatest brightness on August 10, and soon after this runs so rapidly toward the sun again that by Septemeber 15 it passes to the right of this body and becomes a morning star. On October 22 1t attains its greatest brilliancy in the morning sky.
 In figure the paths of Venus and the earth about the sun are shown and the positions of the two planets in their paths at these two different dates. On January 1 the earth is at A, and Venus is almost in line with the sun at A. on July the earth is at B, and Venus at b, and, finally, on September 15, Venus passes between the earth and the sun at d and becomes a morning star
 As Venus mounts She western heav- ems Saturn will be seen steadily sinking For a few months the two beautiful ob- iects will draw nearer to each other, un- til on March 29 Saturn will pass below and to the west of Venus. Soon after ward the beautiful ringed planet will move to the west of the sun and become a morning star. During September, how ever, 1t will again return, and will be seen entering the evening sky in the east

 At last we were off, a gaping crowd at the hotel doors giving us cheer as we drove away in a binding snow-storm Soon we had passed the guards and were in the midst of the blazing lights of tho palace, of the brilliant gala uniforms of the diplomatic corps, and of the staid and solemn movement of scene which is so characteristic of the country of savants and philosophers, where pleasure is taken like square meal of bread and butter and beer; not as the Parisians or Romans take it, delicately and fastidiously, as enc does pate-de-foies-gras or daintily, and slowly as one sips sparkling cham page with mounting vivacity and anima- ton.

just as the bright Venus is leaving it in the west. Throughout the entire year the rings of Saturn will appear to steadily widen out, until they seem to nearly 1n- close the entire ball of the planet.
 The planet Jupiter, with its retlnue or bright little moons, moves into the even ing sky in the southwest during March, and from then until November this beau tiful world remains with us At first Jupiter will be seen in the southeast and Venus in the northwest. During June Jupiter will pass to the west of the me- ridian, and by August 10. on which date Venus is most brilliant, 1t will have drawn within only three hours of the latter nlanet. Before it can overtake 1t, how ever. Venus will enter the evening sky.

What modish American woman would wear 1t today to court, and yet, as it lay the length of the sofa and of the two or three chairs which had been ranged side by side for 1t to rest upon, it seemed too beautiful to be worn. When my toilette was at last completed, the lit tie maid, under my husbands supervision, folded the train like huge bedspread and hung it over my arm, which at once

During this month the faint, little-known groups of the Lynx, the Lesser Lion. the Camelopard and the River may well be traced out. The owner of a small telescope should not fail to examine the interesting star cluster at A, the Great Nebula at B, the beautiful double star at c, and the re- remarkable variable star at D. He will notice that the last star, which was so very bright last August, has now grown very faint.

It will then be a very conspicuous object low i'll the northwest, and by the end of the year it will shine out most brilliantly In the south. By this time Jupiter and Venus will have both disappeared, but Saturn will have again entered the even ing sky. A remarkable approach of Mars and Saturn will occur on August 16 The two bodies will then seem to be so close together in the heavens that they will look like brilliant double star. On November 24 Mars will attain it's least distance from the earth, and It will, therefore, at this time be most favorably situated for observation.
