Measuring Earth's Circumference. Erastothenes, who lived betweer 275 and 195 B.

If this idea be cor * rect they will become more frequer and larger as ages pass, until at lengt our much-admired orb of day is dark ened and ceases to be a worthwhil source of heat. Astronomers and meteorologists ar muafi interested in sun spots and kee a constant watch ,on them. Durin the last few months they have bee i.

Hence it is inferred that quite possibly the recent ? relative abs'ence of sun spots may be accountable for the remarkable warm winter we have been enjoying. SAND MOI'XTAIX RIPPLES.
