the following essay on the camel: 1.-The

is called backteria because it has
hump on its back. The cannimal is
very patient and will lie down and die
without groan, but when 1t is angry
1t gets its back up, which Is called the
hump. The shepherds of cannimals is
called Arabs. When they live 10 towns
they are called street Arabs. When the
cannimal goes on journey It drinks

THE SPIRAL NeBuLAe.
One Of the Terrifying and Mysterious
Forces Of Space.

tUs " tNs tcFrUrtHS @"t Wy~t"''~@~
Forces Of Space.
The most stupendous manifestations
of force of which we have any knowI-
edge are presented by the spiral nebu-
lac. whose mysterious and terrifying
forms were FIRST clearly revealed by
the Lick observatory photographs
made in 1s9S-l900 by the late Pro
fessor James q. Keller. The heavens
are full OF them-they exist by thou
sands-and as astronomical photogra-
ply is brought to greater perfection
their amazing shapes tend more and
more to upset all former ideas con-
corning the processes of creation and
destruction going on In the interstellar
spaces. They affect In an equal de-
gree all theories about the origin and
ultimate fate Of our own solar sys-
TEN.
Who would imagine on looking up
at the starry heavens some quiet
night that the earth is like person
lost in the midst of the whirring
wheels and spinning shafts of some
enormous mill or machine room. where
running bolts. whirling spiDdles,
champing pistons. grinding cogs. gy-
rating governors. dizzying fywheels
and leaping rods confuse the eye and
the mind and paralyze the limbs with
the terror Of impending humiliation I
We are not aware of this startling
situation because. while we see the
stars. we do not see what Is among
the stars. The spinning machinery Of
the universe is revealed only In pho
tographs, and as far as our senses are
concerned 1t performs its functions
with a silence which to the imagina-
ton becomes a part of the horror Of
space.
These cosmic wheels spin with in
calculable velocity, but the span OF
human life is but second Of time In
comparison with their periods. IL we
could magnify time so that second
would become as century. then an
hour would be equivalent to 100000
years, and the true aspect Of the
spiral nebulae would burst upon our
astonished senses.-Garrett p. Serviss
