Some Occurrences Above.

These summer nights are resplendent with fixed stars and planets. Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn are in view. The bright star seen m the west is Venus. She will mount higher and higher as the summer advances, increasing in brilliancy until she may be seen at midday. The blazing star in the southeast, at 9 o’clock, is the planet Ju pi ter. About six degrees east of Jupiter is the much less brilliant plant Saturn. Both: are in the oontellation of Sagittarius (the Archer). This constellation is said to commemorte to Centaur Archer Charon, who changed himself into a horse to elude the jealous inquiries of his wife.
