Within this nebulosity. known as the •uud. apiienrs as it nears us a bright S|sit, the nucleus Smldeuly there oc curs a complete change In the de|sirt- metit of the body, oue which renders It the observed of all observers, and In less civilized times occasionally Its tie- Ing held the harbinger ot distress, dis ease and death. As soou as the comet gets near enough the beat of tbe suu sets up commotion within It. By Very’s deter- initiation of the temperature of the itnblauketed sunward side of tbe iixxm we are enabled to Infer that this heat Is great at tbe eartb'a distance from the sun In spite of the cold of space. This temperature Is 353 degrees F. And as the comet approaches the suu this bent must Increase Inversely an tbe mpiare of tile distance. At half the radius of the earth orbit It Is al ready four times as great above abso lute zero, at a quarter sixteen times, mid so on lucreaslugly. the tempera ture rising Into thousands of degrees No wonder tbe comet acts as It does. It at ouce becomes uneasy, waxes In llgbt and. as tbe spectro*co|w reveals, disruptive electric discharges start In It which let out the Imprlsomsl gases. Then begins that s|>ectacular career of lierlbellou passage which makes tlte comet so superb an object mid for wbleh II pays so dear. Tlte gases wblcb are thus thrust out front the Interior of the separate meteorites, to gether with such particles of the iron ns are made gaseous by tbv bent, fall prey to another force besides gravita tion. Thia force la the Impact of light Itaelf, tbe llgbt emitted l>y the sun. That so Immaterial a thing aa a beam of light can have |aiwer to move even a pith ball la a conception not easy to grasp.
