SHINE JUST WHERE YOU ARE

Don Il waste your time in longing,
For bright, impossible things;
Don't sit supinely yearning
For the swiftness of wings;
Don't spurn to be a rush-light
Because you are not a star,
But brighten some bit of darkness
By shining just where you are.
There is need of the tiniest candle,
As well as the garish sun;
The humblest deed is ennobled
When it is worthily done;
You may never be called to brighter
The darkened regions afar;
So I'LL, for the day, your mission
BY shining just where you are.

Atmosphere Above Earth,s Surface.

The atmosphere Is believed to ex-
tend much more than 100 miles above
the earth's surface. Its density de-
creases rapidly for the first few
miles Of ascent, then much more grad
uaIly. From the phenomena OF twi-
light, due to refraction Of light. It may
be demonstrated that the air extends
up to a height Of As miles; but other
phenomena, such as the behavior Of

rare air exists at a much greater

some physical thorn such as an over
