must have first appeared a very long
time ago. The path of the swarm
comedies with that of the comet OF
1862, body which completes its mo-
ton around the sun in the course of
1913 years. If this Identification is
correct, and IL the comet is merely The
densest part of the swarm, 1t may be
expected that our earth will encounter
this densest part and that most
brilliant shower will accordingly re-
suit about the year 1886.
That the shooting stars apparently
dart outward from single point of
the heavens is merely the effect of the
perspective. The separate particles
are really moving In nearly parallel
straight lines; when our earth meets
them and their paths become luminous
the point at which they all appear to
meet is merely the vanishing point of
perspective. AS the earth consider
ably changes its position during its
journey through the stream, the ap-
parent position of this point on the
sky also changes In conclusion,
it should be stated that those who wish
to observe the shower to the creates
advantage should watch it as late in
the night as possible, preferably be-
tween midnight and sunrise BY this
time the moon will have set or nearly
So and the constellation of Perseus
will have mounted high in the sky.

but it is only the more careful obsery-
er who detects that its paths among
the stars in successive months are not
the same. Although it roughly fol-
lows the path pursued by the sun, it
is sometimes no less than five degrees
above or below this path, and there
fore at different times any star lyins
within this distance of the path of the
sus may be hidden from us, or occult
ed, by the moon. We're we at the
center of the earth we would thus see
the bright star Spica, hidden on Aug.

These bright stars would instantly

The planet Jupiter, shining so bril-

areas of vapors which are ever moving
and altering their shape on the SUI =
face of the immense hot world, forms
in fact one of the most interesting OF
all objects in the heavens. 1t was
thus that our earth was ages ago. As

THE AUGUST SHOOTING STARS

Ihis is perhaps the most generally
known of all the meteoric showers be-
cause 1t returns with great regularity
every year; 1t is not, however, a very
dense shower; that is, the shooting
stars do not succeed each other so
rapidly as the inexperienced observer
would probably expect. The greatest
number of these will be seen on the
night of August u, though from the
10Th to the 18th they are unusually
numerous. and they may also be OBJ
served for several nights before ard
after these dates.
If the observer will face the north
east he will readily find the constel-
lation Perseus, which in the early
evening is still very near the ground,
and if he will fix his attention on This
part of the sky he will every few min
utes see a yellowish, bright, starlke
object apparently dart outward and
move rapidly in any direction across
thC ohJ, ptODGpt9 leaving IL StItdht III
trail behind it. Each of these ob-
jects is but one of n great stream of
cold, meteoric particles which passes
continually around our sun and
through which the earth ploughs in its
yearly journey AS the earth, with
its surrounding ocean of air, collides
with each particle, this last is burnt
up by the immense friction and ap-
pears to us as a shooting star.
The particles in tais great stream,

are very widely scattered The August
shooting-star display always lasts for
several nights, and as the earth moves
forward one and one-half millions Of
miles in its orbit each "a hours, this
tells us that this stream through
millions of miles in diameter. More
over, as every year when the earth is
crossing the great elliptical path Of
these moving bodies it sweeps up Il
great many meteors from the path. II
Is evident that the swarm must also
be extended far along it's great orbit
around the sun.
Thus the great swarm is not only Of
enormous extent laterally, but it has
also been scattered out along its path
to very great distance. If it is the
remains of comet which entered our
system and was after disrupted by the
tidal action of the sun and other
forces, it is evident that this body
