have done either would have been
merely to armee the suspicion of this
unwelcome visitor. Ruth smiled feeb-
ly, and waited for "Lady Anne" to
speak; After all it was quite possible
that Lady Anne:, would not remember
her. She, Ruth Bradney, was still in
her country clothes, and Lady :Anne
had only seen her in a sable coat.
I "Are you Lady Bradney?" queried
the visitor. "I was just going to call.

Yet it was odd bow that idea lived
and flourished, and grew like the grain'
of mustard seed into a great vigorous

That night, when•Ruth lay awake
in bed, watching the dying glow of the
fire, the idea grew and began to throw
out branches..' She'no longer asked
herself why Lady Anne_ had called,.
but why her husband had asked her
to call.
l"Surely,” she said to herself, "Alec,
as a barrister, would not, under ordi-
nary circumstances, have asked a wo-
1 man whom he had only met in' the
course of business to call upon his
wife."' He had never clone such a
'thing before. And if he had wished

above the- quadrilateral represents the
head of. Orion, In its center, midway
between .Betelgeuze and Rigel, is the
line of three evenly spaced' stars that
foam the Belt of Orion and from the
southern end of the belt hangs the
Sword of Orion. The central, fuzzy
appearing star in the sword represents
the Great Orion Nebula, the finest ob-
ject of its kind in the heavens. It is
condensed about the sextuple .star,
Theta, a star that is made up of six
physically connected stars, four of
which are visible in small telescopes,
This group lies at the end of a dark
gap in the midst of the Great Nebula
known as the` fish's mouth, which is
probably in reality a darg nebula shut-
ting off the light from stars beyond.
All of the brighter ,tars in the con-
stellation, with' the exception of Betel -
gauze, form an enormous group of
stars of inconceivably great extent
and at an enormous distance from the
earth. It has been estimated that the
Great Nebula and brighter stars of
Orion are about 600 light years from
the earth. That le, the light from this
group of stars that is entering our
eyes to -day ha.a been traveling toward
us for six centuries with a velocity of
186,000 miles a second. We see these
stars not as they are to -day, but as
they- were six centuries ago.
The Orlon stars are all bluish -white
in color and are the most massive and
hottest of all the stars. Their surface
temperatures are believed to be at
r ascm-
least,as high as 20,000 degrees o
pared with a surface temperature of
11,000 degrees for our own sun.
The red. star Betelgueze that ,narks
the right shoulder of Orion is very dif-
ferent in type from the typical Orion
star, and is not 8 true memter of the
Orion group. It Ls only about a third'
as far away as the Orion stars, or
about 200 light years. This is the star ..
-whose diameter was measured a short
time ago by the interferometer meth-
od devised by Prof. Albert A. Michel-
son and found to be' approximately
276,000,000 miles in diameter, or 320
times that of the sun. Betelgeuze is
one. of the snpergients of the universe,
but its density is estimated to bo Iess
than one -thousandth of the density of
air at the seashore.
Germ That Causes Colds.
Fresh proof that common colds aro
infectious, and probably due to, a germ
so small that it cannot be seen through
the most powerful microscope, was
presented by Dr. Peter Ii. Ol4tsky,`of
the Rockefeller Institute of New York,
to the American Public Health Associ-
ation,
i uman beings were used in the bab-
y experiments. Dr:• Oliteky

Dr. Olitsky said that this indicated
that a germ was the. causative agent,
and that it was 00 small that it passed` •,_ ,
through the pores of an earthenware '•,,�

The germ remained invisible al-
though cultures were prepared from
the nasal, secretions of forty patients
with colds. This indicates either that
the germ is too small to be seen
through the most powerful micro-
scopes or that the methods used were
unsuitable for its food requirerrients.
Experiments on rabbits had deter-
mined that. the common cold is wholly
distinct from epidemic influenza.
