1t may be a matter Of surprise
to many that the moon should eX-
hiblt such apparent eccentrIcltles
in its motion, but it does not sur
prise astronomers. The orbits Of
the moon and the planets, as they
are described in school text books,
are only approximations to the real
paths pursued bv the bodies of the
solar system. They pull and haul
one another about IN way which
might lead an uniformed person TO
fear that everything WAS in danger
of going to smash. but long-coutin.
Ucd observations have shown that
the principle of compensation is al
WAYS at work. and that, on the
average, they keep their prescribed
places.
They even react upon ono an
other on account Of their irrcgulari-
ties of shape, and Just as the moon

ance of the portly earth and swings
its axis round in the great waltz
called the ''proc eSsion Of the equl-
noxcs (tbc moon s influence rs
three times that of the sun in pro
ducing this mOtioD). so the earth.
by virtue of the same protubcr-
ance, reacts upon the moon. causing
slight periodical changes in it's po-
sition in the sky. All these things
are subject TO exact mathema teal
calculation.
The statement that the earth IS

10 some persons, but there is no

earth is nearest the sun is because

For the red nose, loosen all your

wear larger collars, hose and gloves.
For pimples, avoid rich food and
sweets. Eat vegetables and fruits.
Drink water freely. The old-fash-

II has long been thought that
earthquakes and other similar dis

increase in the tidal forces of the
