GARRETT P. SERVISS ON GLORY
OF HEAVENS IN SPRING
Beauty of Stars Now Appeals to Mans Soul
AS At No Other Season.

THERE is a singular accord
Il between the tones Of Spring
in the sky and on the earth. The
vernal stars are, like the April
landscapes, subdued and softened,
lacking the piercing brillianca Of
the winter consultations, but re-
vealing a more retiring beauty
that is irresistible. At no season
do the heavens so plainly speak
to mani!
Now is the time when earth
and sky blend their mysterious
influences over that which we
call the soul. It is no astrolog-
ical phenomenon. It is not from
the signs Cf the zodiac. nor the
houses Of the heavens" nor the
circling planets, exercising an oc-
cult power over poor little man
down here on his floating speck
of interstellar dust, that the in
fluence arises, but its origin is
in ourselves. It is subjective. a
response TO the changing mood
OF nature awakening from her
winter sleeD.
The inhabitants Of the tropics,
where nature has no period of
Information, never experience the
same feelings that come over us
when Orion retires with his star
jingling train. while Virgo enters
on the scene, "silver-footed god
dess," with pure white Spica
glowing softly on the hand that
carries her symbolic spike Of
grain.
History and tradition prove
that all over the temperate zone
of the Mort hern Hemisphere
where civilization has prevailed
these same sentiments have for
thousands Of years been stirred
awake by every recoming Of the
stars Of spring.
Virgo Goddess of Harvest.
The old English custom of
binding the last gleanings into
the Maiden of the Wheatfield,"
or the Corn Baby" was in honor
of Virgo as the goddess of the
harvest. In ancient Sicily Virgo
was the daughter of Demeter, the
goddess of the fields, and Andrew
Lang records that ancient Peru
had it's harvest goddess, probably
identified with the same constel-
lation. To many the association
of Virgo with Ruth, cleaning in
the field of Boaz, will have a
special interest.
You will see Virgo rising in
the East before 8 o'clock in
early April evenings. The clear
whiteness of Spica, a first magni-
tude star. Is often shot through
with darting prismatic rays when
it is not yet very high above the
horizon. The head of Virgo is
toward the west, marked by a
group Of third and fifth magni-
tude stars, almost under the
bright Denebola in the Lions
tail.
The Lion himself Neo) is on

ing from the horizon. He is
south of Ursa Major (the Great
Dipper), and is clearly marked
for the most careless eye by the
celebrated figure of the "Sickle,"
standing upright on its handle.
which is tipped at the lower end
by the first magnitude star Regu-
lus, one of the most important
objects in the heavens for navi-
gators, and lying, as does also
the ecliptic, i. e., the annual path
around the circuit Of the sky.
The celestial Lion has his head
turned toward the west, in the di.
rection of the Twins" and the
Little Dog" which seem to re-
treat before him, as If seeking
refuge with the glittering giant
Orion, just sinking behind the
western horizon. At the same
time the Great Dog" (Canis Ma
jor) appears low in the SOUTH
west, with the bfazing Sirius illu-
minating his fell jaws" Dene-
bola, in the tail of Leo, Is about
25 degrees east of Regulus.
How to Find ArcturuS.
Another great constellation that
comes on the celestial stage OF
the evening in spring is Bootes.
"the bear driver so called be-
cause with his hunting dogs he
seems to be chasing Ursa Major,
1.-The Great Bear" around the pole.
Extend the curve of the bears
tail, also called the dipper's handle,
about thirty degrees southwark,
and it will lead your eye to the
great star Of Bootes, named Arc
turus, well above the average first
magnitude, and one of the most
magnificent in the sky on account
of it's rich muddy yellow color.
The smaller stars of Bootes occupy
the space north and northeast Of
Arcturus.
If you have a small telescope,
capable of magnifying about fifty
diameters, feast your eyes on the
beautiful colored double Carroll, a
third magnitude star, which you
will easily find some fifteen de-
grees below the curved handle OF
the dipper. It's two stars are
twenty seconds of arc apart; one
is white, the other clear blue.
