Which were pleasing tor the eye.
This year they are enjoying the bless

NONE CAN EXPLAIN "AURORA"
Northern Lights Said to Be Due to Passage of Electricity Through
 the Air.

The aurora borealis Cor northern lights) is occasionally seen in the north temperate zone and frequently in the polar regions. It Is said to be due to the passage of electricity through the rarefied air of the arctic zone. The name aurora borealis" was first used by Cassendi, who, in 1921, observed one in France, and wrote a description of it. The "au- rora" is periodic in its manifestations, the finest displays being at intervals of 60 years, and less marked ones at intervals of 10 or Il years. It is also asserted that these greater and lesser displays correspond with the increase and decrease of spots on the sun. The phenomenon is generally manifested in the following way: A dim light appears on the horizon shortly after twilight, and gradually assumes the shape of an arch. having pale yellow color, with it's concave side turned earthward. From this arch streams of light shoot forth, passing from yellow to green and then to brilliant violet The name aurora austra1iS Cor southern 1ights) is ap- piled to a similar phenomenon visible in the vicinity of the South pole.

Detecting Remade Milk.

Because of the increased use of re- made milk, manufactured from pow dered or condensed milk and sweet cream butter, it has become necessary for chemists to devise some test that will indicate it's presence in milk prod ucts. If the curd from remade milk is dissolved in sodium hydroxide, 1t shows a characteristic yellow color, after standing, while natural products, or products containing only small percentage of remade milk, do not show this color As little as 10 per cent of remade milk can be detected by this test when carefully made Popular Mechanics Magazine.
