capture satellites again. and up till the present time 1t has captured four. A million years is only a day in these things. and a billion years is not q very long time. The. more I consider these things. the more am I inclined to lengthen the times; but time is infinite. and therefore there is time enough even though the processes by which things arc accomplished are exceedingly slow.
 Earth Building Up slowly
 As I have said. solar systems are built up by the capture of baby worlds one after another millions or years apart. After these small worlds are captured as satellites, they continue to be built up by meteorites falling upon them the same as before, This goes on for periods Of time too long to be named, because the growth this way is very slow. The larger these worlds become the faster they grow, because the greater their gravita- tionA force becomes the faster they draw meteorites to them. Jupiter and Saturn add thousand times as

much to their mass in one year In this way as the earth does.
 The truth of the things that ] have written of in the foregoing can not be demonstrated in . maths- nautical way, as Newton demonstrat- ed his theory of the force of grayi- tation, because the nature of the subjects does not admit of 1t. l am fully persuaded that the things ! have written of cannot be explained in any other way than as have explained them and at the same time have the theory parallel all known facts while 1t conflicts with none. There are assumptions and theories of men that conflict with my theory: but these assumptions and theories are not true. and it ts only a matter of time when this will become apparent.
 The nebular hypothesis could not satisfy the munitions of such men as Sir William Herschei, but if he were alive at the present time ! think that my theory would satisfy him because it ends as 1t should without conflicting with any known facts.

when Jupiter will have rings the same as Saturn has, because all ] large planets eventually get rings. Sun Once Had Rings
 The sun even had rings like the rings of Saturn, and they were situ- ated in the wide space between Mars and Jupiter where the Asteroids are, the Asteroids being some of the largest of the fragments that still remain.
 The reason why the planets out side the Asteroids are 50 much lare- CT than the planets inside the Aster- oids is because the planets outside are so much older than the ones in- side. You see the ring-stage of the sun lasted an enormous length of time, during which time the sun captured no satellites. During all this time the planets outside the rings were growing by meteorites falling upon them, because to be- gin with they were no larger than ordinary satellites, or they were no larger than the planets inside the Asteroids are now. After the ring stage had passed the sun began to
