H. L.

But thnt is uot all. The brighter of the two Is really three stars revolving ; . . round one another, or rather round their common center of gravity, like 1 three children ' playing "ring a ring o roses." This secret Is revealed to. us by what Is perhaps the most astonish ing of all scientific Instruments, the spectroscope. It not only tells us what the stars are made of. but whether tbey are moving toward us or away from us. When you stand facing the star you .ra nirofiva fnrlnir north. Tho reason that it does not appear to move as tho , others do is because it is nearly in line j with the axis of the earth. Its distance from us is enormous. This can be ,i.m,i fmm tim fnct that although tho earth in its journey round tho sun 13 today about 190,000.000 miles from where It was six mouths ago, that makes no appreciable difference to Us distance from the pole star. It must therefore be many times iuu,wu,wu miles away. t GROW CI1ANDER1UFS. Clatsop county has the" finest cranberry marshes in the west.
