Union of Planetary Bodies Will Produce Sun Spot -Which ? Will Do " Danlage, 5 C A Kansas paper observes- that on December 17 there will be unusual and overbalanced collection of six powerful planetary bodies in the so lar system grouped on. one side of the sun. The pull of these planets, Prof. Albert Fi Porta believes, will produce a gigantiQ sun spot, which will ex plode. ithe earth's volcanoes, shake us, withearthquakes and drown us in floodsirrHe believes it will pull from the-sun- the mightiest sun spot or ex- piosionoi gases ever Known to man. While astronomers generally agree with Prof. Porta as to' the unusual situation in the heavens this month, they do hot admit the consequences he predicts, and point out that nearly similar groupings of the planets have occurred . before without producing any cataclysm on the earth. However, the argument will be decided for us in a few days."" Here is Professor Porta's distressing prediction: ; "Owing to a -strange grouping of six mig-hty planets, such as has not been seen in a score of centuries, the United States in December will be swept by thef most terrific weather cataclysm experienced since ' human history began. "It will be caused by the hugest sun-spot record a sun-spot that will be visible to "the naked eye. Since men first began to make record of events, no sun-spot has Jbeen large enough to be seen without the aid of instruments. " "The sun-spot that will appear De cember 17 V 1919, will be a vast wound in the side of;the sun. It .will be a gigantic explosion of flaming gases, leaping hundreds .of thousands of miles out into space. It willhave a crater large enough to engulf the earth, much as Venus might engulf a football. ' '; ' "Such - a sun-spot will be rich enough in electro-magnetic energy to fling the atmosphere of our planet into a disturbance without precedence or-parellel. There will be hurricanes, lightning, colossal rains. It will be weeks before the earth will regain its normal conditions. There will also be gigantic lava eruptions, great earth- ?uakes, to say nothing of-floods and earful cold. "I make this startling prophecy with no desire to be merely sensation al or alarming. It is simply because my study of the planets has revealed certain results with mathematical certainty On December 17, 1919 no less . than seven planets will pull iointly on the sun. These will include all .the mightiest planets, those 'with the most powerful pull. Six of them Mercury, Mars, Venus; Jupiter, Sat urn and Neptune will be in conjunc-f tion; grouped together m the great est 4league of planets' ever known in the annals of astronomy. They will Jbe massed in the 'narrow limit of 26 degrees on the " same side of the sun! Directly opposite,- coming into oppo sition with this gigantic league will be the huge planet Uranus. The mag netic -currents between Uranus and the six planets will pierce the sun like a mighty spear.. Our earth is outside the league, at an angle of nearly 90 degrees in ' perfect posi tion to" receive -almost the full force of the monster electrical disturbance as it leaps: into activity on what, to us, will be the eastern horizon of the sun's disc. Be warned in adyance. Tremendous things are going to hapr pen from December 17 to 20, 1919, and afterward!" - - $100 Reward, $100 The 'readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages and that is catarrh. Catarrh being greatly influenced by constitutional conditions requires constitutional treatment.
