| THE PLAN ET VENUS

WrY WE KNOW SO LITTLE ABOU? THAT HEAVENLY BODY.

Differing Theories That Have Been Ad- vanced Since the First Observation by Cassini In 1666—The Opinion of Camille ¥Fiammarion.

The planet Venus is our nearest celestial neighbor, the moon alone excepted. And yet our knowledge of Venus, as compared with that of Mars, is cornparatively small. This is not because of the lack of effort to increase that knowledge, but to other causes beyond our control, which are ex- plained by Camille Flammarion in Le Bulletin de la Societe Astronomique de France. M. Flammarion writes as follows.

“When Venus is nearest to us, with a telescope magnifying 80 times only it ap- pears as large asthe moon as seen with the naked eye. An instrument which magnifies 300 times exhibits Venus to us ten times longer in diameter than the moon, and a magnifying power of 600 makes Venus 20 times larger than the moon. Instruments which magnify tus give great opportunities for telescopic study, and they have produced marvelous results in the case of Mars, a planet both farther from us and smaller than Venus. In the case of the latter planet we are as yet not sure of anything.

‘“Whe reason of this is the difficulty of observation. In the first place, since Venus revolves around the sun in an orbit in- terior to ours the time of its greatest proximity is when it passes between the sun and us. Its illuminated hemisphere is naturally always turned toward the sun. There result phases analogous to those of / the moon. The nearer Venus comes to the less we see of its surface. The farther it gets away from us the more we see of its surface, but the planet is reduced to its smallest apparent dimension. A sec- ond circumstance, not less deplorable for the success of our studies, is that Venus ia surrounded by an immense atmosphere, twice as dense and much higher than ours. The effect of this is that we never can be sure of anything we see on Venus.”’

To demonstrate this M. Flammarion gives a summary, which cannot be read without amusement, of the results of ob- servations of Venus during nearly 250 years: ‘‘The first observer was Dominic Cassini, at Bologna in 1666, who observed what he believed to bea brilliant spot on Venus, and this spot he continued to see until his death in 1726. By the recurring Appearance of this spot Cassini calculated that Venus turned on its axis once in less than a terrestrial day cnd reyclycd in its orbit in nearly 23 days. Cassini's ; 74 years later, thorg sht that he too sav

i,

spo-s em the planet, Hig calculation was that Venus rec.cea Gu Mts axis id avout 23 hours and 2° minutes. Early in the seventeenth ¢cniury another Italian astronomer, Bianchini, thought ke discoy

ered a new set of spots, and he lengthened the time of the rotation of Venus on its axis to 24days 8 hours. Then Johann Hieronymus Schroter (1745-1816) declared that he had discovered on Venus moun tains six times higher than Chimborazo, and he fixed the rotation of the planet on jts axis at 23 hours 21 minutes, Sir Wil- liam Herschel in his turn finally became convinced that no one had ever seen spois on Venus, that what they believed to be such were optical deceptions. He declared that it was impossible to discover the length of time taken by Venus in turning on its axis, and he ceased to make observa- tions of the planet. As for the high moun- tains found by Schroter, Sir William laughed at him. Father de Vico and his colleague, Palomba, of Rome in 1839 made more than 10,000 observations of Venus and ended by stoutly asserting that there Were spots on Venus, and they made the

} fime or rowwuva «vo LOUrs 21 minutes and “19845 seconds! Se of our day bpiis nang ip bdeuwthat Venus tables w-: Gays uu ly hours to turn on its axis —that is to say, it takes the same time as to revolve in its orbit round the sun, presenting to the sun always the same face. ‘*While, however, Schiaparelli hus been observing Venus a host of observers in various parts of the world have also been observing it. The list of them would be long. One of the most recent is Mr. Bar- nard of the Lick observatory, with its im- mense telescope. He declared that he has never been able to distinguish any certain spot on Venus, save once, on May 29, 1S5¥. Phe combined result of all these observa- tions is to demoljsh completely the thecry of Schiaparelli. According to all proba- bility, the globe of Venus turns, invisible to us, under its atmosphere, which turns with it, but does not offer any fixed point which will permit us to determine the time of this rotation.

‘*The atmosphere of Venus is so dense that its action is manifest when the planet makes a transit across the face of the sun, ander the form of a black disk. By the observation of a transit at Pueblo on Dec. 8, 1874, it was found that Venus has an atmosphere five times higher than that of the earth. Tosum up, 1 affirm that we can know nothing about the rotation of Venus on its axis, because the absorption of light produced by its immense atmos- phere certainly prevents us from distin- guishing any detail on the surface of the planet. The gray spots that are perceived from time to time on Venus are effects of contrast due entirely to solar light and in- distinct shadows of an atmospheric nature, incapable of furnishing any serious ground for calculation as to the rotation of the planet. No one on earth has ever seen the surface of Venus, and no one ever will. Na one has ever scen a clearly defined spot like those seen on the disks of Mars or the moon. ‘The maps of Venus which have been made up te this time are pure illu- sions.’ ‘Literary Digest.

Nerve Siti The question of the susceptibility of the nervous system for training has recently been discussed. It is believed that nerves can be cultivated. According to the must comprehensive opinion, a great deal de- pends on the owner of the nerves. If is possible to train certain classes and condi- tions, while others are hopelessly unsus- ceptible. The will of the individual, the pliability, or rather the impressionabiity, has everything to do with successful nerve training. Asa matter of fact, the desire to be trained must be present first of all. It comes from within and, prompted by the desire of the individual, a course of training may bring about the happiest re- gults. Training neryes against the will of the patient reminds one of the old adage

Lord Byron, 1 his reported converss- tions with the Countess of Blessington, remarked to her that ‘‘medical men do not sufficiently attend to i .iosyncrasies. on which so much d-vpends, and often hurry to the grave one patient by a treatment that has succeeded in anoth- er. The moment they ascertain a dis- ease to be the same as ove they have known they conclude the same remedies that cured the first must remove those

habits and disposition, which last has a great influence on maladies.’’ These re- marks are simple exaggerations of fecl- ing and fact. Byron was no more enam-
