The dog days are not invariable
either as to their beginning or end
ing. although the Astronomical part
Of their cause is exact enough--just
as grounding day may or may not
be the coldest in the year.
The dog days get their name from
Sirius, commonly called the dog
star, because It is the largest star In
the old constellation, named by the
ancient astronomer, CAMS Major, the
larger dog" This Is not only the
brightest star in the constellation
hut the brightest in all the heavens
when 1t can be seen at all. How
ever, for about IL months In the year
It is hidden by the sun Of our solar
system. because our sun lies almost
directly in the path of our view to
the large star. When our sun is
sufficiently outside Of the path to the
star Sirius is very largely visible, and
this is called its hellacal rising
When it begins to appear the dog
days are said to be al hand
The truth Is that the dog star has
nothing to do with dogs or with
their going mad although the people
IN ancient times used 10 think it was
lad for the dogs II Is now known
that dogs are more apt to 60 mad in
January than in July Dogs only
suffer more I'm July and August for
want Of convenient water for drink
ing and bathing.
The Egyptians formerly dated the
beginning of their year from the ap-
pearance of this star, and they also
prophesied by 1t whether they were
TO expect good year or not because
the rising Of the Nile River generally
occurred about the timS that the
dog star appeared.
But apart from its somewhat acci-
dental name of the dog-star Sirius
is now known TO be a great sun,
much larger than the sun of our solar
nystem and undoubtedly one Of the
largest suns in our universe.
II IS easv to realize at this time OF
year that dog days are not the result
Of superstition. or Of imagination.
They are actual facts. They begin
to be evident about the middle Of
July and last until the middle OF
August or later. They are actually
caused by the warming up Of the

earth. The 21st OF juno each year
receives Il greater amount OF heat
End light than any othor day In tho
year. Still II Is never the hottest
day IN the year, because the earth Is
absorbing more heat than It is giving
cut by radiation at thar time. This
condition continues until the latter
part Of August when the heat
balance begins to turn the other way,
because the earth loses more heat
by radiation than It gains from the
rays Of the sun. The earth has no
chance TO reverse this cooling pro-
cess until after the 21st Of the follow
ing June Then the earth receives
less heat and grows cooler and cooler
after August 20, until in the neigh
borhood Of groud-hog day. February

John Klover was confirmed In
the German Lutheran church in Ger
many and has adhered to that be-
lief ever since. He suffered greatly
during his last illness, for ten
months being in constant pain.
The funeral services were held
Monday afternoon, Sept. FL, 1914
at 2 o'clock from the house, and at
8 o'clock from the Trinity Lutheran
church. Rev. H. F. Martin, Luth-
eran pastor, read the scripture and
offered prayer, and the sermon was
preached by Rev. L. Hanne OF the
Evangelical church from the text
"Prepare to meet thy Cod" Amos
ALP. Rev. Hanne who could speak
German was often with Father MO
yer in his last illness.
Interment was made in the ADJ
lene cemetery. The family of vigor-
GUS sturdy children that remain is
a testimony to the manhood ana
virtue of the deceased.
Through the drouths and hot
winds of the past years, this sturdy
German pioneer stayed by his farm
and wrested from the soil a living
for his large family. Always thrifty
and frugal, he managed to maintain
himself in the days of trouble and
hold to the farm which today is
valuable land. He reached this Sec
ton with $4,000 in money, but by
careful economy gained slowly year

The thanks of the bereaved ram
| ilv is hereby extended to all the
neighbors and friends who offered
help in the days of their fathers
