What tiie Sun Could Do. The astronomers have been figuring on the amount of heat and light that our sun is constantly emitting. It is shown by this wonderful table of fig ures that our earth constantly receives as much sunshine ns would illuminate 50,000,000 square miles of flat surface. Even this vast quantity is as nothing, for, of course, our earth only receives that which happens to fall on the side next to the sun. If there were 2,380,000,000 worlds strung around the sun, they would form a shell of a sphere, with the sun in the center, and each would receive daily and hourly the same amount of sunshine that we enjoy.—St. Louis Republic.
