We have es yet, perhaps, no . absolutely reliable data for the highest sun temper- ature on the earth's surface, but: it may lie safely assumed to be in the neighborhood of or even beyond 150 degrees. It is claimed by Alaxandert von Humboldt that Ritchie observed near llourzouk, in Northern Africa, a temperature, in a measure refloate from the d he desert sands, of 135 degrees) 111 the shade, which is probably the highest thatcomes authoritatively' from the records of travelers; if then 15 true, then there can be little doubt] that the sou temperature was fully F.1FTh'8F,N DEGREES HIGHER. • With. the two extremes before us, then, We Inge for the human subject a cli- matic resistance of at least: 244 degrees, or ttbirty-two degrees more than Le fount. in tate range that is between. zero and the boiling point of water.
