It will be interesting to note whether any great storms or other aerial eae disturb the earth's atmosphere during uneir continuance. A series of careful observations ought to serve to either prove or disprove the theory of those who think that the sun has a direct influence upon our atmosphere other than fts light and heat nd powers. That solar forces are powerfully felt in the electrical condition of the earth seoms to be an established fact. A few years ago a sud- den outbreak of light spots on the sun was ac- companied by great electrical disturbance in yarious parts of the earth. During the sun- Spot cycles the northern lights are most fre- quently seen. When the tremendous power and activity of the solar forces are considered in connection with the fact that the sun’s dis- tance frome the earth 1s only a little over 100 {times its diameter, it seems not unreasonable to conclude that the effects of those forces, when excited to unusual activity, may be felt even at ~ tee of ninety-odd millions of miles.— . ¥.
