February 10. at Z am, the moon will
pass between the earth and Venus, hid
ing the planet from view. The most in
teres.ing sight will be visible to many
observers in the southern hemisphere,
but, unfortunately, the earth is so large
that those who are above the equator will
look over the upper edge of the MOON
and hence see the planet apparently
above our satellite. Even were this not
the case the occultation occurs at such
an hour that both objects will long since
have set to all observers in the United
States. It may be added that the moon
will pass over the Pleiades February II

One of the most interesting of recent
mathematical Investigations has shown
that if the densest part of this cloud is
only so much as one-fifty- millionth part
that of our air, the pull of the mass upon
the inner planets will be just sufficient to
cause the hitherto unexplained disturb
ances of their motions. 1t may be re-
membered that in order to explain these
disturbances the assumption was made
many years ago that there existed an I'M
seen planet moving inside of the orbit of
Mercury, and to this supposed planet
there was given the name of Vulcan. 1t
has long been regarded as nearly certain
that Vulcan has no existence. Now that
it has been shown how the pulls of the
exceedingly tenuous mass Of the Zodiacal
Light upon the inner planets are sufficient
to explain their deviations from their pre-
dicted courses. the assumption of the ex-
istence of unseen bodies in the solar sys-
tenn becomes unnecessary.

will then readily detect the light, which
will appear as great, faint pyramid.
whose widest part rests upon the horizon
and whose apex may extend nearly to the
Pleiades. or even farther The center of
the widest part of the base is at the point
at which the sun sets; the light is mere
brightest, and it grows rapidly fainter as
it's borders are approached.
There can be put little doubt that this
strange light is caused by great, fiat
tened swarm of little particles which sur
rounds the sun and extends somewhat
beyond the orbit of the earth, the form of
its cross section being very approximately
that shown in Figure . But what the
physical condition of the cloud is is still
largely a matter of conjecture. though
we are certain that its average density
must be almost inconceivably small.
