The most beautiful plntiet and th one that coined nearest to the earth nnd most resembles tho oarth In size It at tho same tlmo tho most mysterious. Is Vonus a living world or dond one that Is to say, U It In a condition to support Inhabitants, nnd Is it probnblo that such Inhabitants nro there, or, on tho othor hand, is It un sulted for their prcsonoo nnd bun-en of living forms? Thcso questions astronomers at present nro unablo to answer, but their offorts to answer thorn and the observations Unit they have made of the mysterious plnnot possess nn almost startling Interest. First lot us nrlcuy recall what Venus Is. It Is a globo llko our earth nnd of very nearly tho same inagnltudo, having a dlametor of about 7,700 miles, whllo that ot tho earth Is a little moro than 7,000 miles. So nearly of tho same size aro tho two planets that if wo could vlow thorn from an equal dlstanco wo should bo un able without the aid of instruments of measurement to dctoot any dlfforenco bo- tweon them. The substance of Venus is slightly lighter, bulk for bulk, than that which composes tho earth, but tho dlffor enco In this respect Is so little that again it would require special examination to distinguish by weight between a eublo foot of the soil of Venus and an equal amount of tho soil of tho earth. It follows that on Venus tho force of gravitation or tho weight of bodies does not greatly differ from that on the earth. If we could step upon Venus, we should find that vro had parted with a few pounds weight, but tho ulfferenco would not be very noticeable, oxoept perhaps on the mce trook. Hut this planet, so llko tho earth in many respects, Is very different from our globe In Its situation. Tho earth's dis tance from tho sun is 03,000,000 miles; the distanoo of Venus from the sun is 07,- 000,000, This dluercnco becomes a mat' tcr of groat importance whon we consider the effects which tho sun produces upon the two planets. Heat and light, as every- lxxly knows, vary Inversely as the square of tho dlstanco. When we compare tho square of the earth's distance from tho sun with the square ot Venus' distance, wo And that the former is about double the luttor. This means that Venus on tho average gets twice as much heat and light from tho sun as tho earth gets. 13ut, on tho other hand, wo know that all fonns of life depend for tholr oxlstence upon the rndlnnt energy ot tho sun. On the earth, when wo pass from the nrctlo region toward tho equator, wo find the number of living forms and the variety and intensity of tho manifestations of life continually Increasing until In tho ooua- torlal zona earth, sea and air nro all crowded with animate and growing things. Tho touch of tho sun everywhere produces life, anil In tho absence of sun shine Is death. It is but natural to infer that Venus, having twlco as muoh sun' shine as the earth, should be proportion ately more crowded with nnlmal and vege table inhabitants, and that the intensity of Ufo there should be correspondingly greater. Some geologists have thought that there was a time when the climate ot tho earth was so hot that tropical plants and beasts lived abundantly around the poles. A similar condition ot things might bo supposed now to prevail upon Vonus. Harper's Kound Table. Free Fills. Send your address to H. E. Bucklen & Co. Chicaeo. and net a tree sample uox ot ur.

' Among the fnllnoles tenaclntmly clung to by persons who fancy themselves to lie poMmd of what Is rallied the 'nrtistlo temperament' 1 that one which portrHya the soulful man in an Invariable scrub when It mimes to biislneM propositions." said a well known Washington violinist "This Is an amiable do) union which I am alxittt to puncture to some small extent by rvlatlng it story of very recant ocrtirrenee ai to Its IIuhIu, with the details of which I am perfectly familiar. It's a story of a vtnlln aud of the genuinely gltteu owner thereof. This man Is and has been for the pnt 20 years or so one of the finest ot Ameri can violinists. He Is a llostonlan nnd has lived In Doston all of his life, oxoept when ho hai boon concert tourliiK the country, nnd he gavo that up some yenttt ngo. Ho Is a mnn of line family, nnd he traces his ancestry very directly Indeed back to the Mayflower and beyotid. Thero hns boon a violinist In his family ever slnco the Mayflower cot over to this side, and also a violin. Tho violin brought over by the Mayflower progenitor ot tho Massachusetts family was a genuine and very valuable Strudlvarius. In fact, It is one ot the great violins of tho world today. It was handed down by hint to his eldest son, whom he made Into a violinist and thus transmitted from sire to son, going nlwoys to the son who exhibited the greatest aptl tude for tho violin. "It foil into tho hands ot this Uoston violinist of whom I am siieaking more than 30 years ago, when ho was a young lad. It whs a beautiful instrument In fin ish, and Its tono was magnificent. It was tho ono heirloom of the family regarding which tho greatest amount of spaco was consumed In the many wills mado by its owners slnco tho early days of Massachu setts, and It has been cared for through, out Its long life well, as nn orchid Is cared for during Its short Ufa Fabulous sums wero offered for It by great European violinists who cumo to tho United States early In this century. Olo Bull mado an enormous offer for It upon his first visit to tho United States, nnd he wroto to the father of tho Boston violinist unceasingly with regard to it from Europo, ronuwlug and amplifying his offers. A deaf ear was turned to all of thesa oilers. It was In tended that tho violin should always re main with the descendants of tho man who brought It over in tho Slayflower. "Well, eomo time ngo this Boston violin ist, whllo traveling from Boston to Now York to tako part In a concert, got Into n railroad smash up. lie was in tho sleoper at the tlmo of thecolllsion, with his violin alongside of htm. He was pretty badly hurt beforo ho got out of the mass of wreckage, but not completely disabled. Whon ho found himself extricated and an onlooker at the wrecking proceedings, he suddenly bethought him of his precious Strnd. IIo had to bo held to prevent him from climbing book on top of tho wreck to get at his instrument. After soven or eight hours, during which ho hung about tho wreck llko a crazy man, his violin was handed to him In Its leather case. Tho case was crushed In. Tho Boston violin ist had tho heartbreak of opening the caso and of seeing his glorious Instrument crushed In. lie took It back to Boston with him nnd carefully picked out tho pieces of the wrecked violin. Inside of It tin near tho neck ho found pasted some writing, done very small and flno, In tho penmanship of the last century and doted 1759. 'This bit of writing was a confession. It stated that this was not tho great Strod that had been brought over in tho May' flower. Tho writer, who had Inherited tho violin before tho mlddlo of tho lost century, had been hard up for monoy, the posted uoto went on to 6ay. bo on ono of his European trips ho haa a precise uupn coto of his glorious Strod mado in Italy by an accomplished violin counterfeiter. Tho genuine Strad ho had sold to a great French violinist, and this Instrument was but a perfect duplicate a replica. With tho statement that ho could not die and hand down to posterity a perpetual fraud, the writer of the pasted noto went on to say that ha had had tho ton of tho conn terfelt Strad removed and had pasted tho confession within, thus to In some meos uro salvo his guilty conscience. 'This was a hard blow to tho Boston violinist, as you may well bellovo. IIo went secretly to work to trnco tho original Strad that had been brought over by his ancestor In tho Mnyflowor, uud It did not take him long to ascertain that tho strad Is now tho cherished and priceless posses sion of an aged German violinist. Then the Boston violinist had his broken coun tcrfolt Strad patched up by an export, and whon It was put together again It was found not to have lost a purticla of its fqr mer glorious tono. Tho Boston violinist nut himself In correspondence with one of the violin collectors who hud yearned for his Instrument, stating frankly that the violin s outer appearance had been dam aged In tho railroad accident, but that Its tono was uninjured, ana ottering it for sale at a slightly reduced figuro a matter still of several thousands of dollars, ut course tho Boston violinist had carefully removed tho pasted confession from tho Insldo of tho counterfeit Strad beforo hav ing It patched up. The collector enmo on to lioston ana took tho Instrument at tho Boston violin Ist's figuro, and It is now tho collector 1 most highly prized Instrument. The beauty of tho story Is that It's true down to the very last detail, just aslhavo told It.

When I ventured to look In, I didn't noed my new bullsoye, he had left his light burning brightly, and thero he was stretched out on the bod partly clothed and with ono shoe still on nnd sleeping so soundly you couldn't have woke him up without shaking him, and it would havo boon hard work at that "When I hod rounded up his stuff, I found a gold watch, a pair of diamond sleeve buttons, a pretty fair sized diamond pin and a pocketbook with 171 in It.
