The Seven Stars.

The Seven Stars or the Pleiades are spoken of in the earliest litera- ture that we have, and with reason, since they constitute one of the most conspicuous of the heavenly objects. The author of the Book of Job refers to the Pleiades, and ire quent references to the constella- tion are to be found'in the Greek and Roman classics. As to the dis tance of the seven stars, it may be said that careful calculations have shown that Alcyone, the member of the group around which the sun and the whole solar system were once thought to revolve, is some 954, ,0O0, ,0o0,00O,o00 miles from us "a distance that it would require light about 1G0 years to travel.
