Changes in the pIeiades

The question presents itself whether
three stars of the constellation of the
Pleiades have less brilliancy than for
merly, or whether prehistoric man had
a better sight than ours, or if he was
wont to climb up the mountains to
examine the nearest stars, or if the
atmosphere of past ages was purer
than ours? This problem arises from
the fact that we see from below only,
seven of the stars Of the Pleiadas and
that the last three stars can only be
seen by ascending 10 the highest sum-
mits, while there have just been dis,
covered stones dating from prehistoric
times upon which the ten stars are.
engraved. This interesting question
In astronomy and archaeology has been.
hroached to the French Academy Of
Sciences by II. Bigourdan.

KNEW ALL ABOUT "LA GRIPPE"
People of the Eighteenth Century
Suffered From Its Attacks as Do
Those of Today.

Amid an our sufferings from the
grip" Russian influenza" "blitz
katarrh," Spanish Influenza" 'f1u,"
ct id omne genus, the name and writ
ings of Sebastian MERCER are too
much forgotten. In his picturesque
"Tableau de Paris" is to be found the
following passage on the grippe"
written in 1877, which might have been
written today:
almost every year toward the
middle of November occur catarrhal
indispositions caused by the presence
of a humid and cold atmosphere and
fogs which suppress Transportation.
Many die of II, but the Parislans, who
laugh al everything, call these colds
the grippe the 'flirt,' but the laugher
three days later is himself grippeF
by ii and goes down to the grave.
Passing from old rooms and theater
halls to the open air makes this sup
preston of the Transportation almost
unavoidable The new fashion Of
wearing long cloaks is excellent. It
gives protection against the cold. TAX
ing good exercise is even a surer
remedy The women who are compelled
TO wait some time for their carriages
those charming, delicate women I
see shivering along the staircases and
should consider that their
pelisses are not sufficient TO protect
them against mishaps.''
What would ne nave said to the alb
