Its light is of course that of the sun reflected, and its spectrum is consequently a faint echo of the Fraunhofer spectrum. Dr. H. C. Vogel, who first examined it in April, 1871, suspected traces of the action of an atmosphere like ours, but, it would seem, on slight grounds. It is, however, certainly very poor in blue rays.

"Ah, one must not ask questions," Fräulein Vogel remarked; "but one can have plenty of suspicions. I dare say you were in love, and, as love failed, you have taken to art. So it goes with women. Everything but marriage is a pis-aller." Kitty half rose: the stray arrow had sped home, and it rankled in a new wound.

Then he hurried out. When Max and Hilda came in, the restaurant man was setting up the paper napkin tents on the raised table at the end of the hall, and Pete stood by the door, looking upon his work with satisfaction. He did not see them until they were fairly in the room. "Hello," he said; "I didn't know you was coming, Miss Vogel." He swept his arm around. "Ain't it fine?

Peterson started toward the office, to give the word to the men before they could hand in their time checks. "Mr. Bannon." The foreman turned; Vogel was approaching. "I wanted to see about that cribbing bill. How much of it's coming down by boat?" "Two hundred thousand. You'd better help Peterson get that timber out of the way. We're holding the men."

Then the east-bound, shooting heavier clots of smoke laboriously into the air, drew its slow length out of Nampa, and away. "Where's that stage?" shrilled the woolly old man. "That's what I'm after." "Why, hello!" shouted Vogel. "Hello, Uncle Pasco! I heard you was dead." Uncle Pasco blinked his small eyes to see who hailed him. "Oh!" said he, in his light, crusty voice. "Dutchy Vogel.

Henry Draper, September 27, 1879, seemed to attest the action of intrinsic light; but the peculiarity was referred by Dr. Vogel, with convincing clearness, to a flaw in the film.

My wife still holds in warm remembrance the days when you, a bright, pleasant young fellow, used to come and see us, what a long stretch of time lies between. Much is changed about me. Of former friends only Kobell and Vogel remain; Zuccarini, Wagner, Oken, Schelling, Sieber, Fuchs, Walther, all these have gone home.

In 1889 Vogel, with the Potsdam spectrograph, actually found that the luminous star is receding before each eclipse, and approaching us after each eclipse; thus entirely supporting Goodricke's opinion. There are many variables of the Algol type, and information is steadily accumulating. But all variable stars do not suffer the sudden variations of Algol.

He found the scrubwoman hard at work on the office floor. The chair and the unused stool were on the table. He looked about with satisfaction. "It begins to look better already," he said to Miss Vogel. "You know we're not going to be able to keep it all clean; there'll be too many coming in. But there's going to be a law passed about tracking mud inside the railing."

Supper over, the table was cleared and a big Bible laid before the Frau Pastorin, who, as a clergyman's widow, felt that it was her duty to set a good example to the sojourners beneath her roof. Hedwig Vogel, however, did not stay to the reading: she went up to her bare, lonely rooms. They were totally lacking in character, for neither the woman nor the artist was betrayed in their appointments.
