STAR LORE
BY Arthur Dew. Carpenter

by arthur Lev. carpenter
How many stars a you e In
all the sky? There are about 20
stars Of the first magnitude, and
the number increases per magnitude
in about the ratio of 8 to !. That
is, there are 20 stars of the first
magnitude; about 60 Of the second;
100 Of the third; $40 Of the fourth;
1920 Of the fifth; and 1850 stars of
the sixth magnitude. The actual
number differs but little from this.
There are actually 1850 sixth mag
nitude stars. Thus we see there are,
roughly, about 1000 stars in the en-
tire heavens visible to the unaided
