The moon is overhead and at the full, casting her mellow light around, suffusing with a soft glory the heavens above, and lending to the dancing, foaming waves a silvery shimmer. Jupiter is on the western horizon, fading out of sight, but how lustrous! Lyra, Arcturus, Aldebaran, seem of gigantic size.

The nights splendid, with full moon about 10 the grandest of star-shows up in the east and south, Jupiter, Saturn, Capella, Aldebaran, and great Orion. Am feeling pretty well am outdoors most of the time, absorbing the days and nights all I can. American Society from a Park Policeman's Point of View

I'll take thy offer, friend, and give thee gratitude." And so next day the two went forth together. Aldebaran showed a brave front to the crowd, glad of the painted mask that hid his features, and no one guessed the misery that lurked beneath his laugh, and no one knew what mighty tax it was upon his courage to follow in the Jester's lead and play buffoon upon the open street.

More eloquent the sheathed sword that told of years of inward struggle than if it bore the blood of dragons, for on his face there shone the peace that comes alone of mighty triumph. The king looked round upon his nobles and his stalwart sons, then back again upon Aldebaran, lying in silent majesty. "Bring royal purple for the pall," he faltered, "and leave the Sword of Conquest with him!

"We were hanging on by our fingernails here till his people started coming in. And then, after you sent the Aldebaran...." "Where is the Aldebaran, by the way? I didn't see her when I came in." "Based on Kankad's, flying bombardment against Keegark, and keeping an eye out for those ships.

He had the Aldebaran sent north along the crest of the mountain-range between the Hoork and Konk river-valleys, where she could cover both with her own radar and other detection-devices and exchange information with the Sky-Spy, and the Gaucho sent in what looked like the right course to intercept the Boer-class freighter from Keegark.

He and Gunnar were with Ato in the control room when suddenly warning bells began to jangle and red lights flashed on and off. Ato adjusted the largest screen. And there, slowly revolving like an hour-glass of gold amid uprushing sparks of sun and flame, was The Old Ship. Ato pointed to a bright star. "Aldebaran. They are headed there."

Nine elements among them iron, sodium, calcium, and magnesium were recognised by Huggins as having stamped their signature on the spectrum of Aldebaran; while the existence in Sirius, and nearly all the other stars inspected, of hydrogen, together with sundry metals, was rendered certain or highly probable.

There can be no doubt that our sun would at least double its brightness were the absorption suffered by its rays to be reduced to the Sirian standard; and, on the other hand, that it would lose half its present efficiency as a light-source if the atmosphere partially veiling its splendours were rendered as dense as that of Aldebaran.

Once again men set their eyes upon the old constellations they had counted lost to them for ever. In England it was hot and clear overhead, though the ground quivered perpetually, but in the tropics, Sirius and Capella and Aldebaran showed through a veil of steam.
