But on the sun things are diff
ferent. The sun has not q solid
surface like the earth, and il not
solid within; but it is a globe Of
matter in the gaseous state
though very compassionate as
Ii rotates the equatorial parts of
its surface have a greater linear
speed than any other part. and
the speed diminishes toward
either pole.
Rate Of Rotation
Thus, according to the figures
given by DIR. Charles G. Abbot,
director of the Smithsonian Astro-
physical Observatory, who is a
foremost authority among astron-
omers on. the subject of the sun,
the time of one rotation OF the
sun at its equator is 1855 days; at
latitude 80 degrees north or south
of the equator the time is 26.3
days; at latitdue SO degrees, 31.2
days, and at latitude so degrees,
35.3 days.
If the surface of the earth ro-
tated in that manner it would be
rent and torn ~asunder in every
direction and the whole world
would become a chaos. 1t Is
possible that the surface of the
earth did rotate in that way
millions of years ago when 1t was
still in a molten or vaporous con-
dition, and very suggestive
fact here presents itself. viz. that
the huge planet Jupiter. which is
as many hundred times larger
than the earth as the sun is
thousands. has the same peculiar
manner Of rotation that charac.
terizes the sun. On Jupiter too,
the equatorial parts rotate with
more rapidity than any other, and
II you will look at Jupiter with
q telescope you will see the broad
parallel hands Of cloud that seem
to be drawn around It on each
side Of the equator, and lying in
about the same ATTITUDES as those
within which the periodical black
spots that you have heard so
much about, appear on the sun.

THE SUNS AXIS

81 read your articles every
day. and now my turn has come
to ask a question. Does the
sun revoIve on an imaginary
axis like the earth. and what
are the number of daily revolu-
tions of the sun? Your judg.
ment will settle a $40 bet
L. B.. New York.
II DON'T care to be bet settler.
i You and your friend should
call off your $40 bet. On that
condition / am quite willing to
answer your question.
Yes. the sun does ''revolve"--
rotate il the word astronomers
use-on an imaginary axis. like
the earth. But it doesn't make
any number of daily reyolu-
tons" for one turn Of the sun on
its axis takes many days. You
must remember that the sun is
an exceedingly large body COM
pared with the earth. 1t would take
more than a million and a quar-
ter earths to make a globe as
large as the sun.
The distance around the suns
equator is about 100000 miles,
which is more than IL times as
far as from the moon to the
earth. You should not be sur
prised, then, to learn that that
immense body requires a month
to make a single turn on its
axis. Yet for all that its rotary
motion is not sluggish. for IL you
could get near it you would see
the suns equator spinning past
YOU with a velocity OF about rs
miles per minute!

you make a girl prefer blue
serge, low heels, an unrouged
complexion and a soft voice when
all her girl friends dress like
rots? How can it be done?

building up a better ideal, in

distorted ideal which she already
possesses.
BY making her feel that chorus

not good enough for her. All

based on pride. Acknowledge
that pride. Play up to It.

Enlist yourself in her campaign
to ''put herself over"-with wit
and patience, sympathy and tact,
make her see that she can put
herself over better by dignity and
charm than by vulgarity. Lead
her to desire the fine grooming
of the spirit just as she desires

A CONSTANT READER.
The brides parents, who are the
hosts of the occasion, pay for the
expenses OF the wedding. Or, IL
the bride herself is assuming the
responsibility for paying for her
wedding, she pays the expenses.
So the brides family or the bride
pay for all expenses connected
with the wedding, both at the
church and for the reception.
The groom has very few finan-
6ing-his financial responsibilities
begin with the honeymoon! This
Is the list of the obligations of the
groom!
1. The engagement ring
2. The wedding ring.
3. A wedding present to the
bride.
4. The brides bouquet. A bou-

his own mother,
s. The marriage license.
6. The fee for the clergyman.
z. The gift to the best man apd
each of the ushers, besides their

8. The groom arranges for the
transportation OF the ushers and
for the car that is to take him and
his best man to the church. as well
as for the one that is to take the
best man from the church To the
