n JANUARY 4 the moon was
nearer to the earth than il has
been at any time since the dis
coVery OF America BY Columbus,
and about 1880 miles nearer than its
average distance of 23S.84O miles.
The moon was full on that date. and
since the earth happened at the same
time TO be very close to its nearest
point to the sun. 5000. 600 miles nearer
than IL will be on July 1, the com
bined effects of the relative nearness
OF the moon and the increase in the
intensity Of the sunlight poured upon
Its surface made il the brightest fun
moon that man has gazed upon in 400
years Whether anybody who CHANGED

uced the superior brilliancy of the
moonlight is questionable; yet it
might have been noticed, and certainly
was measurable by scientific methods
AT the same time the pull Of the
moon upon the earth was proportion
ateIF increased, and, being in oppOsi-

nave said. at its nearest point for the
year, the tidal strain of the two bodies
upon the earth was at a maximum the
greatest known in four centuries. If
there had been, cOincidently a storm

York would probably have experienced

It has long been thought that earth

Wnen acting together. as they did on
TINS occasion, and the fact that there
was no notable seismic outbreak ac-
companying this extraO ordinarily close
approach Of the moon, at a time when
the sun itself was exercising its ut
most force, indicates either that the
tneory Of connection between earth
quakes and high tides is erroneous. or
that just at the present moment the
rocks Of the globe are in compare

one Of the things which have been
regarded as the most surely deter
mined with respect TO the influence Of
the moon upon the earth is the vary
ing effect which il produces upon the
earths magnetism. When It is near
II exercises greater effect of this
kind than when il IS further away.
and on this occasion, when it was ex-
traordinarily near, a perceptible in
crease of its magnetic effect beyond
any known to modern science, might
have been expected to occur. When the
observations made at magnetic observ-
atorles have been published we may

The practice OF the writer is to have
no fear Of an oversupply Of moisture
Even before eggs are placed in the
machine he practically covers the bot
