Stars Velocity.

The velocity of star seems to be
a factor of it's effective age. Unlike
ordinary human experience, the speed
of star increases with it's advancing
years, and in the whifl of spheres
above us it is the young who cannot
keep the pace. The average velocity
of stars ranges from about six kilo-
meters, or between three and four
miles, per second for young stars to
about thirty kilometers per second for
"old" ones, But notable exceptions
occur. AT Mount Wilson solar observ-
atory of the Carnegie institution some
stars have been found to move with
velocities of 141, $50, 179, 233, ZIG and
even 325 kilometers per second. the
highest speed yet known.

young people together. You amt so
old, lady, not forty, | guess"
60 along with you, Abraham! I'm
only thirty-six!" exclaimed Miss Lisa,
flushing furiously.
All the better, lady. I've married
worse ones than you. You got bet
ter chance than some. l married a
lady of sixty-eight last MONTH"
Abraham, how dare you'll"
All the womans says that. They
got to pretend they amt never
thought of marrying But they'll al
ways take a chance. Now let me
marry you, miss, and You won't regret
1t. There's fine fellow in Sidmouth,
only forty-one-Mr. Frank Jones'
with big farm and horses to breed
You'd like him, lady"
Abraham, will you go, or I'll never
buy anything from you again."
''All right, miss" returned the in
exorable peddler. And maybe when
marry you you'll let me take the or
der for furnishing your home"
The cause of Miss Lisa's trepidation
may or may not have been known to
Mr.. Abraham. The fact was that the
said Mr.. Jones had been an old sweet
heart of Miss Lisa's, years before, one
among a number, when she was a viii
lage belle. Since then they had met
several times, but there had never
been any thought of courtship.
1t was the following day that Abra-
ham renewed his proposition, this
time to Mr. Frank Jones, before whose
door he stopped.
MIR. Jones, why amt you never got
married." he asked, with a winning
smile which could not possibly have
given offense.
Why, Abraham don't know,
really. l suppose none of the girls
wanted me-"
Then l got just the girl for you"
said Abraham Such fine girl, Mr..
Jones, in Hobart. S ,e's Miss Lisa
Quentin. She loves you, Mr. Jones'"
What the-what do you mean,
Abraham" exclaimed the farmer
angrily.
Its all right" said the unperturbed
Abraham. "All the mems says that at
first. They're skittisher as the girls.
No, she didn't tell me she loved you,
Mr.. Jones, but read it in her eyes.
You can get her-and then maybe
you'll let me take the order for fur
nishing the home-yes?"
Left alone, Frank Jones began think
ing over the old days of his wooing
of Miss Lisa. Lisa Quentin had GER
tainly been one of the sweetest girls
in the neighborhood. The middle
aged man found himself recalling in
cidents that he had forgotten years
before, things quite unsuited to the
reveries of substantial, hard-headed
farmer.
In the end he took the occasion to
pay a visit to Miss Lisa when he
was buying cattle at the Hobart mar
ket. He dropped in for a pleasant
chat, and. though he made no allusion
whatever to Abraham, he saw that
Miss Lisa was not ignorant of the
peddler's scheme, as was evinced by
her red cheeks and sort OF timldity
in her manner new to her visitor.
When Jones left they felt like old
friends again. Il shall come often"
he said, taking her hand.
You will always be welcome, Mr..
Jones'" answered Miss Lisa.
Nevertheless, when he had gone, she
knew that Abraham had been speak
