SUN WILL ABSORB WORLD
Professor Fauth, a British Savant
Thinks New Solar System VIII
Be Created.

Berlin.-The whole of the present
solar system is ultimately to fall into
the sun, causing an explosion that
may result in = new solar system.
Such is the theory put forward in the
Weekly Journal of Natural Science by
Prof. Philip Fauth, a well-known as
tronomer, whose reputation has rested
principally upon his researches into
conditions on the moon.
The novel feature of DR.. Fauth's the
ory is that it is based upon the suppo-
sltion that a great part of the known
solar system, including especially the
planets Jupiter, Uranus and Saturn,
are not composed of mineral matter
at all, but are tremendous masses of
ice, or balls of ice surrounding a min
eral kernel. furthermore, he de.
clares, a part of what is now known
as the milky way is not mineral OF
gaseous, but "a ring of ice DUST"
masses of particles of ice suspended
IN space, the outer planets receiving
constant addition to their ice mass
| from this source.
Professor Fauth declares that the
world already at some remote period
has had similar experience, result
ing in the death of nearly all animate
nature and that all species of life as
we know it have arisen since then.
Eventually the planets swinging
through their narrowing orbits will
fall into the sun, causing a new ex-
plosion and perhaps the birth of a
new solar system, but for thousands
of years before that time all life, Ell
Their on earth or elsewhere, will have
disappeared.

with as much sincerity as you would
in defense of your own land?"
is that a request?" he asked.
IF you regard it as SUCH"
"Then l promise" he said softly.
She thrust out her hand impulsively.
Presently, as the next dance began,
she arose
"Mr. Holton," she said, believe me
sincerely when l say to you that |
must go now. l promised father l
would leave at one o'clock, and you
see now that it is after one"
Holton got up with a gesture of de-
precation. He had taken her hand and
did not relinquish it, nor did she at
tempt to draw it way.
IF you ever hear anything concern
ing me-now or in the future, will
you withhold judgment until-until
you ask me about it and have me ex-
plain?"
Il promise" replied Holton. There
was a faint pressure on his fingers, a
bright smile, and the next instant he
was standing alone.
AS he stood thus, someone touched
him on the arm, and glancing about,
Holton was confronted by thick-set
man in evening dress.
"a very charming girl, Mr.. Holton,
observed the stranger.
Holton flushed angrily
And who are your" he asked blunt
ly.
my name is Harper" was the reply.

By the way, do you know anything
about the young woman with whom
you were dancing?"
Who? Miss La Tossa? Oh, yes. "
But Holton suddenly realized how lit.
tie he did know.
How well do you know Miss La
Tossa?" the other asked suddenly.
oh a mere acquaintance; recent,
answered Holton.
Did you know that that young WON.
an has been giving US more trouble
than all the rest put together?"
Rest of what?" demanded Holton
eagerly.
REST of the spies, of course
Holton thought moment and then
there required to him the girls parting
words: IF you ever hear anything
concerning me now or in the future
will you withhold judgment until you
ask me about it and have me explain?'
And he had promised. Well, he would
make good his word. He would have
her explain.
He turned to the Secret Service mai
beside him.
What you have said is very inter
esting," he said. In good time | may
have supplementary information"
Don't tell me you didn't know thi'
all the while?" smiled the detective.
I'm telling nothing" and Holtoi
turned away.

The dance he was waiting for at
length arrived, and Holton sailed
forth to seek his partner before the
opening strains of the waltz measure
had died away He found her stand
ing alone near the musicians, and as
she looked at him with a strange ex-
preston

mustn't; it is best not
Best not what?" Holton stopped
short and regarded her with look of
amazement.
Best not dance, really" she said.
Holton almost glared at her.
And why not, please?" he asked
stifly.
The girl stepped impulsively for
ward and placed her hand on his arm.
"Ah, don't" she said. 1T is for the
best, tell you. Now, please excuse
me-"
Don't you care to dance with me?"
Holton looked at her curiously.
The girls lip dropped just a bit,
and with that sign of weakness she
was lost, for Holton's strong arm stole
about her waist and the next instant
she was out on the floor with him.
"Oh," she gasped, why did your"
Because l wanted to- replied Hol-
ton simply. oh knew you thought
/ was a bad dancer and were trying
to wriggle out, but I'll show you l am
not at all bad"
She had already discovered that
fact, and, abandoning herself to the
sheer joy of the dance, relaxing slight
ly in his arms she suffered herself to
be guided about the floor.
After the dance Holton led her to
a,secluded corner and sat down beside
Ter.
That was great" he exclaimed.
Permit me to say you dance wonder
fully we'll"
And you, too" she said.
But why"
She interrupted him by tapping him
with her fan.
Don't, pleased" she pleaded.
Holton shrugged his shoulders.
Very well,' he said. He took her
card. The next dance is ours" he
added.
Why did you come here tonight?
she asked.
''Why-why-because I wanted tc

A Broken Promise.

While Holton was making up his
mind to ask Miss La Tossa several
questions, her father began to do that
very thing without, apparently, wait
ing to make up his mind, as soon as
the two were within the little ante
room of their hotel suite.

Little was heard of these until 30
years later, when the Franco-German

They were then adopted as the nation

you have done exactly as l might

he cried warmly, she's the finest girl

WOMEN IN FIELD OF LABOR
Be on the Increase. Throughout
Great Britain.

The Textile Mercury of Manchester,
England, states in recent issue that
textile trades have always provided
more employment for girls and wom-
en- than for boys and men, and that
during the present generation female
workers have increased in other
trades as well.
According to the Mercury there are
now employed in various occupations
in the United Kingdom about 100000
females of all ages besides the 2,000,-
900 engaged in domestic service.
The employment of many is of a
non-productive character, and yet the
number of female factory workers in
creases, as many of them enter occu-
pations formerly fully monopolized by
men, besides which large part of the
work formerly performed in dwelling
houses has been transferred to the
factory system.
