Profussor Lodger of London, whow series of Gresham astronomy lectures on "Knocks In Their Eolation to Astronomy" has been completed, in his last courso pointed out that the universe, instead of boiug fixed, is alive with motion, each star with its attendant planets hurrying through space.

If star were to knock against star tho intense heat and fierce fire generated bv the enor mous volocity and vast momentum of tho two masses would be Bnoh as to pass human conception. It maybe that the sun was formed, by lho collision of two stars. The effect of two such bodies attracting each other and meeting would be to reduce them to a violontly agitated gaseous mass, which wonld oscillate, first inward, producing inconceivable heat, and then 6ut wmu uKuin, ultimately assuming tne condition of tho sun. The general result would be that tho two bodies would revolve around their common center of gravity that is to say, around each other creating a double star. Lord Kelvin has calculated that if 29,000,000 solid globes, each of tho mass of the moon, should bo scattered over a spherical snrfaco 100 times the radius of the earth's orbit, thoy wonld come together and bo raised to a temperature of 100,000 degrees.

They wonld oscillate outward and inward, reaching to a leas distance each time, and ultimately set tnng down into a sphere. The nebulie wo see around us may, Professor Lcdgor snggosts, havo been produced by tho knocking together of two groat bodies rather than by tho aggregation of many smnllor onos. The collision of two huge suns wonld thus load to rejuvenescence and the formation of now systems. Phenomena indicating that something very much in tho nature of a collision had occurred aro tho outbursts of temporary stars such as those observed by Tycho Braho in 1572, by Kepler in 1004 and thoso of 1848, 1866, 1870, 1885 and 1892, tho last being the now star Auriga, which declined through ten magnitudes, or becamo 100,000 tiincB less bright in two months. The groat increase in tho light of a comet as it approaches tho sun may be due to a tidal disturbance in tho bodies forming it, causing them to knock against each othor, and thus generate boat and light.

In tho samo way tho twinkling of the stars may bo caused by the knocks of tho moleculoa of the atmosphoro on the othor, whose undulations carry their iigui to us. mo excessively great and the exceedingly small nro all interde pendent, and tho past, present and probable future of nebulous bodies all hinge on tho relations thoy bear to tho knocks of tho moloculos of thoir gases, while the knocks of immense bodies depend ultimately on tho knocks of thoir constituent atoms. IJook noriiiU In Gold and Silver. Tho only gold and silver bound, dia mond iucruslod book in tho world was lately enshrined in tho holy Mohamme dan oily of Ismin Iiuza, Persia.

Izam has communicated to tho Academy of Sciences a new method for obtaining soap bubbles lasting a much longer timo than those obtained from tho soap water genorally used. He has recourse to a resinous soap made by tho following formula: Pulvorizp together 10 grams of pnro rosin and 10 parts of carbonate of potash; add 100 parts of water and boil until complete solution. We obtain in this way a thick solution which maybe kept in fitook; to diluted for nso with from four to flvo times its volume of watery It can be kept indefinitely oven when exposed air. The bubbles produced aro very persistent and consequently can bo mado useful in the study of phenomena relating to thin laminso and in maluntr nhotoflrrapns in which soap bubbles play a part.
