Travels Of the Moon,

The light of the moon is due entirely
to reflection Of the light Of the sun.
and the different phases Of the moon
to it's position in relation to the posi-
tiotl Of the earth and the sun. When
there is new moon, half Of the sur
face of the moon is illuminated, but,
the greater part is turned from the
earth and only delicate crescent ap-
pears to us. At the first quarter half
of the illuminated surface is turned
toward us, and at the fifteenth day
the moon reaches point in the heav-
ems directly opposite to that which
the sun occupies. She is then in oppo-
ton, and the whole of the Illuminated
surface is turned toward us. and we
have a full moon. From opposition
the moon passes on in her orbit, grad
ually decreasing in size, or rather
less and less of the illuminated part
being turned toward the earth.

White EIephantS.

Among the more conservative ST.
amese the change Of. the national flag
from red to alternate stripes of red,
white, blue, white, and red was prob
ably a matter, here and there, Of ad-
verse comment, but the color arrange
ment, one may imagine, is relatively
unimportant SO long as the ancient
white elephant remains the national
symbol. Indeed the rest Of the world
would hardly know Slam without the
white elephant, and recent traveller
in Siam describes the care with which
these animals are maintained in
Bangkok. One may wonder, however,
just how seriously the white elephant
is regarded by the energetic business
men of Siam who are now strenuously
preparing to improve trade conditions
with western nations.
