block than a help to further investigation,
 because it leads an observer to imply that all the work necessary to be done with the nebulae has been done, and the rest of the business is that of the mathematical astronomer, who is to make what deduc- tions he can from the positions so com pletely catalogued and the descriptions so neatly made and so readily to his hand. When the nebhlae has been assigned its place in the sky and it's description in the catalogue, everybody concludes that all has been done for 1t that can reasonably be expected. Then comes the wielder of modern statistical apparatus. who says. in effect: Here is jolly lot of figures very nicely arranged to save us the trouble of
 inquiry into their meaning let us analyze them mathematically. and we shall dis cover laws of nature which would never have been visible to man like Herschel, who worried himself with the individual- ity of each object as if it had a character and personality of it's own" There s a real danger. adds MT. Kinks. that these modern statistical inquirers may as Al'te- mus Ward puts 1t. throw so much dark ness on to the subject that we shall soon know nothing about the early Saxons'' or other subjects of inquiry. In all such in- quiries there is need for a personal criti- cal faculty which is beyond the realm of statistics. The scenery and construction of the heavens are characteristic. IS To-

om inc Iondon Morning Post.

From the London MornlHS 1OSt.
 Astronomy is not a science which tends itself readily to humorous observation. but in the Edinburgh Review Mr A. R. Kinks of Cambridge university observatory touches on nebuae in a pleasantly satiric way. Nebulae, after having been first cat alogued bv Messier and then recatalogued by Sir William Herschel with vastly im- proved telescopes, have hardly ever ceased to afford opportunities for contradictory classifcations Having first been regarded, as their name implies, as inchoate masses, they were believed by Herschel to be diverse in nature and character. Then came the Rosse telescope period. in which the resolution of some of the nebulae into star clusters gave birth to the idea that all nebulae might similarly be resolved If the telescope were but powerful enough to separate their constituent stars. Th's was followed by the discoveries or SIT
 William Higgins. which just as clearly proved that some of the nebulae were iiot
 star clusters, but were gaseous in char acter: and today we are back again Ut l point of view which, applying more refined and more extended spectroscopic methods
 to some of the more distant ncbr'se, seems to show beyond dispute that some of them must be composed not of gas but of great spiral formations of suns, uni verses within universe. or. perhaps more properly as lniverses without the universe. which is comprised in the milky way. But twenty-two years ago, before these later discoveries and specuiations were advanced. new general cataloSue of nebulae and star clusters was published by Mir J. l.. E. Dreyer. This revised the first Herschel catalogue and that pub lished by Sir John Herschel it 1ssf-

A NEW RIVALRY
Cinematograph Shows Counter At
 traction to Public libraries

From the London Morning Post.
 The remarkable popularity that the cine matosraph entertainment enjoys among all classes in this country is bound to have far-reaching consequences. It's ef- fleets on the theatres music halls, on the churches and various social agencies arc well known and now there are signs that it's influence has reached the public libra ries. Thus the librarian of Harlesden Public Library (Mr. E, Cockburn Kyte) has been faced with decline in the num- Der of books issued, and after consider ing all possible causes, he is convinced that it must be ascribed to the competi- ton of the cinematograph. Three wears ago 91000 books were issued annually from the lending department, but last year the number of issues declined by 5000. At the same time there has been an increase in the number of borrowers. so it is clear that the patrons of the library are read ing less. MT, kyte set himself to find out the reason The primary cause of fluc- tuations in a public library is invariably the weather, but MT. I<yte found that in spite of the excellent summer of 1911-if the weather is good people spend less time indoors, and therefore read less there was no marked falling off of the issues during the summer. Further, he
 could not ascribe it to the general fall in the percentage of fiction read in. public libraries all over the country, nor to the large output of siXpenny and sevenpenny
 novels in recent years. for the decline was in what he calls 'household reading r travel hiograp phy, essays. as well as flc- ton. Moreover, the student class is using the library to a much greater extent, special efforts having been made to meet the demands of the large number of young engineers who are at work at Wil- lesden. MT Kyte had accordingly to car " his researches further afieid and. learning that no fewer than five picture palaces have been opened in the last three wears within a radius of a ten min utes walk from the library, he is now certain that the cinematograph is the counter attraction.
 As he stated in an interview with d rep resentatiye of the Morning Post. he is the more convinced of the correctness of his theory. because from his intaraSt in
The Birmingham age-herald., 1912-12-02

the local labor bureau he has had special opportunities of ascertaining how strong is the fascination that the picture palace ex- ercises over the working and also the smaller shopkeeping classes. When an unemployed man gets a job nowadays,
 he said. "the first thing he does is to take himself and his family to the cin- ema. I have known of men who nave actually gone without food in order to keep their threepence intact for the pic lures. One little girl here. when informed that her father after long absence had returned to work, was heard to remark ioyfully: Then we'll get to the pictures,
 few years ago many men who could not afford to go to a London music hall would come here of an evening and bor- row a book: now for the expenditure or penny they can get about an hour amusement in a picture palace MT. Kyte added that perhaps they felt the competition at Harlesden the more be- cause they did not encourage readers or frivolous and unwhoesome fiction
 The librarian of another large public library in London said in the course of an interview, that it was quite probable that the picture palace was beginning to affect public libraries. though such the ory was not capable of exact proof The fluctuations in the issues of books in pub lie libraries.' he proceeded. ''are due to many causes. Changes in population, the building of technical institutes. the per sonal tastes of librarians and of the mem bers of the committees who control them, the weather; the advance of education all make their influence felt. Many mem bers of municipal library committees have mania for numbers. They want to see big returns. and in such circum- stances librarian is naturally inclined to cater for the large class of readers. who seize on third-rate novels, hurriedly devour them if the first chapter is nice,

office or offices, that none of them should hold stock in corporation in which an- other holds stock.
 For five years none of them should have an officer or director who at the same time was an officer or director in another, and none of them should em- ploy the same agent in the United States for the purchase of tobacco, or for the sale of tobacco, and none of them should acquire stock in any of the others, or make loans or otherwise extend financial aid to any of the others.
 ''These injunctions, if obeyed, insure the reality of competition, and If dis obeyed, then detection is certain and per sonal punishment is imminent.
 'If there has been a claim made by a single individual that the injunctions contained in the decree of November 16, 1911, have not been obeyed in letter and in spirit the American Tobacco com pany has not heard of it. On the leaf mar kets in Kentucky, Virginia, Tennessee. North Carolina and South Carolina the competition has been and is open. mo- torious and extreme. In the marketing of goods it has been equally so.
 ''The position of tobacco manufactu- rers differs materially from that of any other large corporations in that the sue cess of the tobacco manufacturer depends t1lllTtlY OH lHt dlllluuc OI lnc puouC toward his product
 Every jobber and every retailer knows the name of the manufacturer of every tobacco product that he handles. Every consumer knows-or may learn simply by looking at the package or inquiring of the deaer--who makes each brand of tobacco product.
 If the consumer is not pleased he can instantly change to a competitive l,,, la. o~t~it trf .f final appeal If his decision is against manufacturer, that manufacturer will have to cease business.
 Competition among tobacco manufac- turers does not take the form of price cutting The history of the tobacco business proves that price-cutting is lot a desirable weapon to use against coin- petitors.
 'sTobacco, candy perfumes, and other products which appeal to the sense of taste or smell, are purchased invariably because of the appeal of the specific ar- ticle to the individuals taste.
 About the only effect of cutting the price of a high-priced perfume would be to suggest to the consumer that the per fume had been deteriorated in quality. Likewise, if a well-known eghty-cent candy was reduced to sixty cents pound, those who had been stendy purchasers of the candy would likely believe that it's quality, as well as it's price, lad been reduced, and they would abandon 1t and search for another eighty-cent candy.
 So it is with tobacco products. About the only effect of price-cutting is to re- move product from one class and put it into another, often with the result of destroying it's value. Thus, persistent price-cutting, even by retailers, on va rious well known five-cent cigars have driven them out of the five-cent class, and into the three-eent class. Just as soon as they reached the three-cent class, the fve-cent smoker abandoned them, and they died.

nice These readers, l imagine, would readily desert the library for the picture palace, for they weary of reading very soon. Even a third-rate novel Is strain on their meagre faculties. At the picture palace on the other hand, they would be able to satisfy their craving for cheap emotion and sensationalism at the very minimum of intellectual effort. The American or continental film, with it's tawdy story of the sheriff's daughter or the armed Apache. gives them all they want. Perhaps this class of patron would be no great loss to the public library though 1t would be pity if more serious readers were tempted away However
 we may hope that the picture palace itself may soon improve, and that foreign melodrama may make way Tor nlms or more artistic and educational character At any rate. I am convinced that public libraries will cater more and more in the future for serious-minded readers.
