"Hot!, men were quite gray, but each hn-J a luxuriant head of hair. Noui then sat a stout party with a shining dome that was almost destitute of hirsute covering. The two friends exchanged facetious remarks about silvered locks then indulged in some pleasautrie about the ''thinning of the th ch," with casual references to door.aob and billiard balls, much to th amusement of the passengers, bui to the evident discomfiture of the baldheadcd man. The talk finally developed . tic njs argument on the cause of b&d nests, and after considerable jo, kiity the pair turned to the peari" pated itranger, and one said: "My friend and I have been discussing the cause of baldness, but We can't seem to agree. Would you iiind telling us what you refnrd as the real cause of baldness ?" The stranger wheeled about, eyed Ida questioners fiercely and snorted ; "Brains I" Pittsburg Gazette

At one and the same moment let a photograph of the moon and the surrounding stars be taken both a-fc the Cape observatory and at tha Royal observatory at Greenwich Placing the two photograpÜ side by side in the stereoscope, we shall clearly see the moon "hanging in space" and may evaluate .its diitance. But for the sun and the nearest planets, our next neighbors in tha uxuvcxc aii culty recommences. The TcaFon is that any available distance on the earth, taken as eva distance, is rather small for tea purpose.
