specimen that photographed dark
in the ultra violet rays, and found
that it contained iron and little
sulphur.
Thereupon he took a rock and
stained it with iron. but this show
ed equally dark in the violet and
the ultra violet Next, he sprayed
a part of the rock with sulphur
vapor, producing a deposit that was
invisible to the eye. When this was
photographed in the different kinds
of light the deposit was invisible in
the yellow, came out gray in the
violet, and black in the ultra-vio-
let. Since this was exactly the ap-
pearance of the strange deposit
around the crater mountain on the
moon, when photographed in SINH
lar lights, the inference was ire
sistible that Aristarchus is sur
rounded by vast deposits of sui
phur, whose existence would never
have been known to us but for the
curious power of the ultra violet
rays.
There are similar deposits around
other mountains on the moon. and
this fact is in accord with the be-
lief that most of those mountains
are of volcanic origin. since it is
we'll known that on the earth the
volcanoes are always surrounded

TINE old joker who declared that
the moon was made Of green
cheese probably thought that
nobody could ever disprove his
statement, because ii would be i'm
possible for man to find out what
the moon really was made OF.
If he could revisit the earth now
he would be less astonished to see
men flying through the air than to
find out that they have actually
discovered the composition of the
moon without going there.
1t is 24O,O miles away, and we
have not yet succeeded in crossing
the empty space separating it from
the earth, but. nevertheless, by the
properties of the light reflected from
its surface we are finding out what
it is made Of.
Rays Are Beyond Our Eye Reach
These strange discoveries are
based upon the fact that the pho
tographic plate can see" waves of
light which are totally invisible to
the human eye Our eyes grasp a
certain range of light waves vary
ing from about 1-34,00 to 10000
of an inch in length. but there is
an abundance of Invisible" light
whose waves are both much longer
and much shorter than those of the
light which we see
The longer waves are called in
frared rays"-that is, below the
red--and the shorter ones are
called ultra violet rays"--that is,
beyond the violet-the red and vio-
let being the limits of the visible
spectrum of light.
Now, it happens that these rays,
which lie beyond our eye-reach, are
reflected with varying degrees of
intensity by different substances.
We can not see them directly, but
the photographs, plate is able to
make them sensible to us, if only
we can separate them from the
flood of invisible light that envel-
ops them. This separation can be
effected by means of colored
screens and Of certain substances
that are particularly transparent
for special kinds of light like
quartz. BY such means Professor
r. w Wood. of the Johns Hopkins
university, has succeeded in maxi
ing photogra phs Of the moon with
