Heat viii Cease Some Day.

But the diameter of the sun is
about $4,000 miles, so that its
diminution in a thousand years
would not be more than about
fifty miles, or less than one-sev-
enteenth- thousandth part of the
whole, an amount that would not
be perceptible from the earth
Yet, Helmholtz shows, by the me-
chanical laws of heat, that this
relatively slight contraction of the
sun is sufficient to account for all
the heat that it continually gives
out
Now physics teaches us that
this process cannot continue for
ever. The time will come (and we

cannot tell just when), when the
sun will cease to contract, and
will begin to solidify. In the
meantime the partially condens-
ed vapors forming its atmos-
phere will become thicker, until
they absorb so much of the radia-
ton from within that the amount
of heat that is sent to the earth
and other planets will decrease
enormously, and at length be cut
off entirely.
Millions of years will elapse be-
fore that state of affairs is
reached but meanwhile many
temporary variations are TO be
expected, and the observations
that we have referred to indicate
that such variations have already
begun to manifest themselves.
Here is where the studies of
astronomers concerning other
variable stars than the sun land
the heavens are full of them)
become of interest for everybody,
since they show US suns in every
stage of partial extinction. Some
vary so little that very careful
observations are required to show
any change at all, but many 9TH
ers loom and sink like a dying
conhagration, and seem to be
quite near their end.
The Sun Must Die.
For millions Of years, perhaps.
the worlds that circle around such
perishing suns have been expert
encing conditions that one can
not present to the Imagination
without a shudder. Gradually the
heat ard light of their sun have
been withdrawn; their inhabi-
tants have seen the orb on whose
radiation they depended become
A"AAIoA anu ldiultl' Win many
sudden but only temporary recov-
cries, until at last it faded from
sight, and with it's disappearance
the frightful cold Of interstellar
space extinguished the last spark
Of life.
To think that our sun is ex-
empt from such an end would be
as foolish as for a man in the
heydey of youth and strength to
fatter himself that he can escape
the fate that, one by one, over
takes his older companions. The
variable stars are symbolic Of the
mortality of suns just as the pas
sing of our friends INTO the shad-
ows of age is symbolic of the
evanescence of our own lives.
Hence the intense interest which
the detection of even the slight
est failure of the energies of the
sun must have for all thoughtful
minds. The sun is the father of
life for the earth, and to see him
stumble ever so little, is to ex-
perience a feeling akin to that of
the child who first notices the
trembling of its aged parents pro-
tecting hand.

Sun Growing Smaller.

The cause of these variations is
not fully understood, but It evil
IDENTIFY resides in the sun itself.
In effect 1t is somewhat like the
fluctuations Of a fire-alternately
dying down and then blazing
more fiercely. But the sun is
not fire, although It is hotter
than any fire we can produce.
II is a globe of intensely heated
gases, in which substances like
iron, which are solid upon the
earth, exist in the state of glow
ing vapors.

Gus particles draws them togeth-
er, producing an immense COM
preston in the interior, and this
compression serves to increase
the heat. As the heat radiates
away from the suns surface the
supply within is kept up by the
closer contraction of the whole
mass. The sun becomes gradual
ly smaller through this process,
diminishing in diameter, accord
ing to Helmholtz, about $50 feet
per year.

NEW YORK, July 12.-There was
no appearance of reviving interest in
the stock market when trading began
today, following the dullest day in
seventeen years. Price changes were
small, with a few exceptions. Cana
dian Pacific opened two points higher
and Bethlehem Steel 1. The rest of
the list advanced fractionally.
IL a. Unlimited quantities of stock
were offered for sale and when shorts
bought they had to pay half a point
or more over yesterdays closing fig
ures to get supplies. Initial prices
were bettered, but dealings were not
large enough to produce any radical
change in values.
The market closed firm. Partial re-
treat of the short interest, as indi-
cated~by the slow upward movement
of stocks today, was attributable to
the pacific tenor of foreign political
news, satisfactory trade reports and
word of the improved crop prospects
as result of recent rains. Railroad
bonds showed steady tone, but there
was continued heaviness in govern
ment and municipal issues.
