UTILIZING THE SUN.

Professor Abbott, of the Smithso-
uian Institution. announced in a recent
lecture that electricity and gas as gen.
.erators Of heat might be displaced
eventually by the utilization of radi.
alton from the sun. We wish they
would hurry up. Our gas in East End
Is Pickering low, says the Ohio State
Journal. But We don't complain. Hy-
g~ienists say there is danger Of having
ones room too warm. But we are In
terested In the substitution of sunlight
for philosophical eason We are
now burning sunlight In coal, gas, hot
water, steam and electricity. But they
come a long way around, q million
years, perhaps. before they get into
our furnace or cookstoye. That Ia
very expensive. But il we are able
to do business with the producer
and do away with the middleman, we
will be able to get plenty of heat at
moderate prices. So we wish these
scientists who have been talking about
It for some time would cut across the
aeons and get at the original supply,
and turn the suns energy directly in
to the home. We have been talking
about hitching our wagon to a star for
g long time; let us now do a greater
thing-hitch our wagon to the sun and
turn the tropics into our homes.
