Ip other words. oar gun ig variable star. It has ions been known that other stars vary In the amount of light tbey send forth, notably Mlra In the constellation of Cetos, but It required the most refined investigation with the most elaborate checks to prof that this was the ease with the son. One of the Instruments Is so delicate tbat it can measure one millionth part Of degree of best. It Is found that the amount of beat Is connected with the spots on the sun, and, curiously enough, more spots more beat Thus we bare one factor in the changes of terrestrial temperature, al though it is only one. Our seasons are caused by the Inclination of the earth's equator to the ecliptic, and the beat is greater in summer when the sun's rays fall most directly on the earth. But os the amount of beat varies and as the radiation, resection, etc., also vary we bare- a very complex system ol weather. It is believed by the Smithsonian in stitution that eventually we shall be able, through knowledge on the sub ject to inake much more accurate wea ther predictions than at present and for a much longer time in adrauce. Pbiladelphla Inquirer. ROLLING AN UMBRELLA. This Expert Makes It a Rather Com plicated Operation. few men can roll up an umbrella nicely. ( Here la the method I was taught It Is not very pretty, but it Is effective. Yon begin by folding up s sheet of newspaper to form a little pad; otherwise you are apt to spoil your wall paper. Now for the rest Bold the umbrella horizontally. Hold the pad of paper against the wall, press the. end of the umbrella against the paper and the handle of the um brella against your own body. This leaves the hands free for the deli cate task of rolling up the umbrella. Find the button. Bring the fold with the button on it to your left and let it bang down. Then pull out each fold and pass it over the first Throw the lot loosely around the umbrella with out disturbing the creases of the folds Grip the tops of the ribs with the right band. Put your left band around the other end and wind the umbrella through the left band with a screwing motion. Do not let go of the tops of the rib of the umbrella. When yon have to move the band slide It around. If you let go you will find that the ribs get out of place, and then the folds of the umbrella will follow suit When the umbrella is rolled op grip it tightly until you bave fastened, It If you fall In tbat detail you will get an nnslghtly bulge In the center of the umbrella.

In the Southwest bay, in the New Hebrides group, there is a small wood ed island of considerable height above the sea, although only a few hundred yards in circumference. The story of its acquisition Is a curious one. South west bay used to be considered a good place for target practice by the British men Of war on patrol duty there, and this small inlet was used as a target so frequently that it seemed In danger of being gradually shot away. The chief who owned (t protested and wanted compensation. The captain of a man-of-war who understood the na tives knew that these claims would be a ceaseless source of blackmail unless they were settled once for all, so be bought the island for the British crown, paying ten sticks of tobacco for it and every one "was satisfied. The place since then has been known as "Ten Stick island-" London Standard. Isn't a Loaf Always Bread? "How is Robert getting on at col lege?" asked the minister, who Was being entertained at dinner.' "Splendidly paid the proud father, who then went on to tell of bis son's various social, athletic and, scholastic successes, and the minister said it was a fine thing to be college bred. That erening little James, Who bad been an interested listener, said, "Papn. what did Mr. Brown mean by 'college bred?" "Oh, that" said papa, who bad been looking over his son's bills. "Is a four years' loaf.'V-Ladles' Home Journal. The Humble Librettist. In the history of the opera there are many curious anomalies, but perhaps the strangest is the role played by the librettist. For the most part obscure and Unimportant, bis ranks have never theless been recruited from the ablest and most brilliant men of letters. Among those who have undertaken the patt are such unlikely names as Vol taire, Goethe, Wielaud, Addison and Fielding, while others of considerable poetic talent, as, for example, Metasta Slo, Calzabigi, Rinuccini, Boito and Coppee, have tried their band at libret to writing with assurance, giving to it their best efforts. And yet the suc cessful librettists are few the merest handful out Of a harvest of centuries. jfeMLOM TMeAIH CIRCUIT Seats on Sale at Alli son's Wednesday 9am 9 Months in New York THE VIENNESE m mi i ii " : : ; f I (fa.;.
