Astronomy- simply
lulls us that, the
sun Is- the primary
causo or source of daylight, but it does
not say that daylight and sunlight are
identical. In fact, they differ almost as
much as do water and wjne.
Put the dekreo of difference varies.
Daylight is a mixture of two kinds of
light anil Its. quality Is continually
'changing, as -everybody who has ever
had anything1 tc do with photography
)nows. The proportions of. the two kinds
of ILght that mako daylight are not the
J'samo from hour to hour, and hardly
'from minute to minute.
In clear weather, under an open- sky,
'with the sun high In the heavens, clay
'light, says Prof. Nichols of Cornell, Is
'ftlmost entirely sunlight. A white surface
exposed to an unobacured sky receives
directly from the sun 83per cent of the
J tight that Illuminates it and only 15 per
"cent from other parts of the aky dome,
t, This other nart of the. Rumination is
called skylight and -It consists of light,
Jnearly all of which came originally from
tho sun, but which has been changed In
uuallty by reflection from the earth, frbm
the clohds and from dust rind vapor In
the air. Many of the rays that character
ized tho original -sunlight havo been ab
sorted by tho reflecting substances bo
that what remains is no longwr the same
'thing as before.
On a completely overcast day there is
.no sunlight, properly, so called, but only
Jfcky-Ught. Whether the sky is overcast
'or not the intensity of daylight varies
Ijvlth the hour of the day "and with the
season. This Is dqe.to differences in tho
"elevation of the sun. Thcso variations In
the Intensity of daylight are surprisingly
ncreat 'The-Intensity is, on the average,
Hten times as great in mldsummejj as In

Dcsldes, the quality of daylight Is con

The Fifth-Monarchy Men

Two hundred and fifty-three yearn ago
today fifty men, headed by a barrel
maker named Wnnor. marched upon the
city of London with tho purpose of cap
turing II, overturning the authorities, nnd
making Jesus king.

originated about the year 15. Ardent
supporters of Cromwell's government,
they held that the Trotector was to bo
tho John tho Daptlst of the "Fifth Mon
archy," the blessed condition which was
to succeed the Assyrian, Persian, Greek
nnd lloman dominations, during which
Christ should feign with the saints on
earth for a thousand years.
Thoy went the full length of their con
victions and, Just beforu their attempt
upon London, declared themselves as sub
ject to no one but "King Jesus."
Cromwell did not enthuse as ardently
as they thought ho ought to, and tho
Fifth Monarchy men began political agi
tation against him. They even went so
far us to enter in conspiracies against
htm. Of course, Cromwell was not a
mini to be trifled with, and the fanatics
wi re given a lesson that quieted them
for a time. -Dut still nourishing tbett
plans, they watted until the coming ot
the "Merry Monarch," Charles II,- -when
they inado the crary, attempt upon Lon
