When one of these so called shoot

a second on an average-we behold it
as it quickly burns up and is de

large that it is not burned up and
violently striking the ground, we call
it meteor.
It has been estimated that daily

one of the chief causes for the re-
cent decline in the price Of lead from
sc in August to sac toward the end
of November is the surprisingly large
amount Of lead that has been lately
imported into the United States. The
table of movements of lead to and
from the United States given below
has been prepared to show exactly
how the foreign commerce in lead has
varied during the first nine months Of
the year.
In the first half of 1920, the largest
quantities of imported lead came. as is
ordinarily the case, from Mexico In
August heavy imports of pig lead bars
and old lead from Europe set in. and
through an unusually large amount
for that class of material. the quaint
ty was more than doubled by similar
imports in September The table
clearly brings out the rapid increase
in lead imports
At the same time, exports of lead
have materially fallen off. Earlier in
the year they averaged about 5000. 600
pounds monthly from foreign and do
nestle ores. In August and Septem-
Der they had dropped to about 100000

had, the Indians talk of a marvellous

and he sought permission to go and
annex this island to Spain. This was
i'm March, 1913 He explored Bimini
carefully but did not discover the
fountain, and then transferred his
search to the larger island that he
supposed Florida to be.

ass 100000, it is probable that our
earth, revolving upon its orbit de-
stroys 5.25O,OOO,0OO of them yearly. OF
course each of these consumed shoot
ing stars leaves behind it a small
amount of dust, which settles grad
ually to the ground.
Such an amount of star dust would
add annually about $4,000 tons to our
worlds weight However even in
century this accumulation of dust
would not amount to much, since it
would take more than a billion years
