NO BUILDINGS ON THE SUN
Why Some Observers Imagined That
They Saw Structures on Face
Of "Old SOL"

Well into the last century II was be,
lieved that the sun was inhabited, not
with puny beings like ourselves, but
with people weighing several tons and
of proportionate strength.
The sun, being a body Of most tre-
mendous size, must necessarily have
inhabitants worthy OF its grandeur
And, having men, women and children.
1t must have buildings in which to
house them and to carry on their in
dustries.
Hence some observers, with an in
genuity which did credit to their i'm
aginative faculties, were certe in that
they had discovered buildings on the
dark, solid body Of the sun. The
buildings were not claimed to be in
regular formation, such as a vast CITY
In the sun might be supposed to con-
tain, Sut were merely "traces."
That was how these observers al
lowed their imagination to run riot.
AS fact, what they actually saw
was not dark body on the sun at all,
for 1t possesses none, but dark OPEN
ings Caused by uprushes Of gas) in
the suns flaming envelope. These
openings we know as sunspots, and the
differences In the shading of the spots
were taken to be buildings beside
which the largest on the earth would
be mere toy.

HOW CAN YOU TELL YOUR
FAVORITE TOBACCO?
As Plain as the Nose on Your
FaCe-JuSt Smell II

Smokers do not have to put tobacco
in their pipes to find out if they like it.
They can just rub the tobacco between
the palms of their hands and smell it.
The nose is an infallible guide to smok-
ing enjoyment.
All smoking tobaccos employ some
favoring "to improve the favour and
burning qualities of the leaves, to
quote the Encyclopedia Britannica.
Naturally, there is considerable differ
ence in the kind of favorings used, and
the nose quickly detects this difference.
TUXEDO Tobacco uses the purest,
most wholesome, and delicious Of all
flavorings-chocolate. And the almost
universal liking for chocolate in great
measure explains the widespread popu-
larity of TUXEDO Tobacco.
Carefully aged, old Burley tobacco,
plus a dash of pure chocolate, gives
TUXEDO Tobacco a pure fragrance
your nose can quickly distinguish from
any other tobacco. Try it and see.
