When Leap Years end.
In 1082, In the arrangement of the
Julian calendar, ton days were drop
ped eo as to get things running on the
then new but the present hauls of cal
culntlnj time. So as to keep things
running rlirht It was determined that a
year ending a century should not be
blsextlle, except every fourth century.
Thus there was no leap year In 1700,
1800 or 1000. It la. or at least was.
ratber rough on the ladles, who have
special advantages In leap year; but,
tbougb there will not be many of those
who saw 1000 who will see 2000, the
latter year, ending a fourth century,
will be a leap year. In this way three
days are retrenched In four centuries,
and the remaining seven days will be
made up In a little over 800 years.
After that calendar years will be like
solar years, and future errors In the
calculation of tlmo will occur no more.
The loss of leap year will In thousands
of years affect the seasons, but I sup
pose the mathematicians of the centu
ries hence will be so flip in handling
figures and making calculations that
they will have no difficulty In keeping
things going correctly, Exchange.
