At this point. and before describing the
peculiar aspects of the life of animals and
plants that one might expect 10 find I'm the
Uranian and Neptunian worlds let US de-

mere turn Of chance suffCed TO make some
organisms plants and other animals.
Or, the differentiation might be likened
TO the mysterious operations of vital
energy, which turns some animal germs
into the male and others into the female
direction Of development
Surprising. then that chlorophyll on
Uranus and Neptune is an indication of
the presence either or both classes Of
vital organisms, or of a combination of
the two into one class only, we may look
upon its visible manifestation in the light
Of those planets as a kind of life-spectrum
or a chemical proof of the existence of
life conveyed to us. like the spectral proof
OF the composition Of a star, across mil
lions Of miles of space. One may com

of the most fruitful intelleCts ever devoted

"ConsOations in Travel or The Last Days

which. by the way, is even slighter in
density than Ura1hus and Neptune, while
its spectrum bears considerable .resemb-
lance TO thirs:
Looking through the atmosphere toward
the heavens, I saw brilliant opaque clouds
of an azure color that reflected the light OF
the SUI, which had 10 my eyes an entirely
new aspect and appeared smaller as If
seen through dense blue mists. I saw
moving on the surface below me immense
masses, the forms Of which I find il i'm
possible TO describe They had systems
for locomoHon similar to those of the
morse or sea-hOrse but I saw with great
surprise that they moved from place to
place by six extremely thin membranes
which they used as wings Their colors
