Three Stages Through Which They
Pass to Reach the Earth.

Three stages Through Which They
Pass to Reach the Earth.
An article by Alfred wegener In the
Scientific American olfers an explana.
tion of the marked difference Of color
observed in mcteors. Up to an alti
tude Of about forty-five miles the prin.
ciIal constituent OF the earth's atmos-
phere IL nitrogen. A second stratum
Of the atmosphere. extending up to
about 1915 miles. consists mainly Of by.
drogen. Still higher. wegener himself
has sought to prove the existence Of a
stratum consisting Of, an excessively
light gas which he calls "geocoroni-
um.'
When entering the atmosphere from
outer space meteors do not become
luminous In the very tenuOus ''geocoro-
mum sphere" but only when they en-
ter the Hydrogen sphere" aud most Of
them are dlasipated before reaching
the nitrogen atmosphere. The largest
urebalts. however. penetrate deeper
aud may reach the earth or explode
NOT far above It
DR.. wegener nnds that the meteors
that penetrate deep enough pass
through three color stages-vtS. yellow,
white. green and deep red. Ths great
majority exhibit only the nrst stage.
In which the color white. yellow.
sometimes reddish, u that Of the In
enndescent meteor itself. The green
stage weSener believes to be due to
the incandescence Of the hydrogen
through which the meteor b passing.
while the deep red stage Is due to the
incandescence Of nitrogen In the lower
atmosphere.

When you once glimpse the new
umbrellas you'll spend all your time
praying for rain. They are chunky
and stubby and adorable and also dear.
They are called sun umbrellas and
can be carried equally well in rain or
shine but they really are more rainy
looking.
They come in black, purple. green,
red and blue and all have stocky little
chubby handles with either a loop of
braided leather like a cowhide whip
to slip over your wrist or else they
have stunning white ivory rings for
the same purpose.
Those with the white bracelet ef-
fects have their little blunt stub
ferules tipped with the white and also
the ends of their ribs
Others not quite so stubby but most
attractive have handles of amber and
tortoise and there are also some with
handles of white capped in green or
blue and some with handles of black
and white stripes.

isinglass we had with us in limited
quantities last season, but this sum-

the most perky of little slouch hats to

These hats come in two models, one
fashioned solely of the oilsilk with a
stitcheo pf1m ana 1old ana pump
bow of the same around the soft
crown. The other is a little soft
shaped affair of the oilsilk lined
throughout with the same shade of
taffeta that pulls down snug on the
head and allows the floppy brim to
turn up or down or every which way
to suit your face or your fancy. A
narrow band of the taffeta passing
through oilsilk straps ties in an ad

side and thus regulates the headsize.
