TWO GIANT suns
COME into VIEW.
The Heavens Declare the Glory of
God; The Firmament Showeth
His Handiwork

From Canada's astrophysical OBJ
servatory in Victoria, B. c.. comes
the report that its director DR.. j. S.
Plaskett, through the observatory's
big telescope, has discovered two
heavenly orbs, twin suns, SO quadril-
lion miles from the earth.
Scientists say the discovery is
one OF the outstanding astronomical
achievements of recent years. The
suns have been named Plaskett, for
their discoverer.
Doctor Plaskett has estimated that
the suns burn at a temperature of
$4,000 degrees Fahrenheit as they
whirl around one another. One, the
more massive, is believed to be rs
times the bulk OF our sun. The less
er is SO times heavier.
One is $4,000 times as bright as the
sun, the other 10000 times as bright
Plaskett, Doctor Plaskett estimates,
is more than FIVE times as large as
any other known heavenly body.
Reducing the figures to modern
terms, scientists point out that an
airplane, travelling 200 miles an hour,
would require S0,000,O00,0O0 years to
travel from the earth to the newly
discovered planets. Light travelling
at the rate of $4,000 miles a second
requires more than 5000 years for
the passage.

HUGE INSECTS
REMAINS FOUND
in OLD SWAMP
Gigantic Ferns, Rushes, Once
Grew In BraidwOod Region,
Professor Claims

Enormous ferns. gigantic rushes and
cluD MOSES and strengthening
trees, many of them more than 100
feet in height and with needles of
TWO or three yards in length. and a
most OF insects, among which huge
dragon flies and cockroaches appar-
emily predominated once inhabited a
swamp at Braidwood, H., according
to Adolf c. Noe, professor of peleo-
botany at the University of Chicago.
Prof. Noe reconstructed this pic
ture OF the vegetable and animal life
of prehistoric times from fossilized
remains found in Skinner mine No. 2,
in the Braidwood district, 81 miles
southeast of Chicago.
1.-THE Braidwood mine" Prof. Noe
stated, "is now the best place to find
fossils in northern Illinois and has
somewhat replaced the famous Macon
creek deposits in popularity with col
lectors.
Plants of the Coal Era
"The coal is found at depth of 40
feet and directly above it is a grayish
shale which the miners call soap
stone and which contains round cal
careous stones. If you crack these
stones with a hammer they split into
half like a sandwich and on the inside
of each half you can see the impress
sions of fern leaves and other plants
of the coal era. Also insects. fishes.
crawfish and other small inhabitants
of land, water and air are found, but
the plants are most predominant,
"A considerable number of plant
species can be listed from Braidwood
and we are able to reconstruct in our
imaginations a lively picture of the
negotiations of those long, bygone
days.
Trees 100 Feet in Height
There was once a Braidwood
swamp which stretched TO the west
and south and which was filled with
gigantic rushes and club MOSES and
Strengthening trees which had nee.
dies Of two or three yards in length.
Many of the trees of that time must
have been more than 100 feet in
height, as we can judge from the
size of the trunks aud leaves.
1.-THE ANIMAL population of these
swamps contained small reptiles, am
phibia, fishes and a host OF insects,
among which enormous dragon-flies
and gigantic cOckroaches seem TO
have been predominant. There were
no butterflies. no warm -blooded ami
mails, no birdlike reptiles, no flow
ers. Probably the only color which
living nature provided were green
brown, yellow and black The sounds
were the croaking of frOglike am
phibia and the noise produced by cock
reaches and dragon-flies; no singing
Of birds, no chirping of crickets.
"A strange world! OF the enormous
vegetable masses which fell into
those swamps the coal beds were
formed. and 1O0,OO0,00O years passed
away before man came and utilized
again the sunlight and heat which
had been stored up in these millions

CUT GLASS is HEAVY
BECAUSE OF IA LEAD

Cut glass is so heavy because it is
more than one-third lead. Lead for all
fine glasses such as cut glass, cleo
trio light bulbs, glass for telescopes,
optical use ETC., is first changed into
lead oxide by burning it in a furnace
This oxid is known as red lead; it
is a reddish powder This powder,
mixed with silica fine white sand)

melted in a furnace. The molten
glass can then be blown into various
shapes. Thus lead used in plumbing
