The eclipse meets the sunrise about 120 miles northwest of Dul- uth, Minn. You see it as a round spot of blackness about 100 miles in diameter, moving at the terrillc Speed of a, moonbeam. The shadow sweeps the length of the Great Lakes in an hour. shrouds mighty Niagara in insignlicance, blots light from Toronto, New York, New Haven and the homes of 10,000,000 people, sha- dows the Atlantic steamship lanes and is at length overtaken by night‘s darkness in the waters of the North of Scotland. No shiftings of night and day, storm and smile, war and industry can dress earth in the vast, weird, varied fantasy crayoned by an eclipse. From your viewponnt in the sky, eclipses can be seen at least twice every ear, and some years, five times. ut in any one terrestrial locality, the grand spec- tacle is visible on an average of but once in 350 years, the sight of seven lifetimes. Imagine yourself at the celestial parapet, gazing down through swarl- ing star dust at the sphere of our familiar world, spotted by the sha- dow of the moon. From the golden bar of heaven, even as from your own doorstep, the grandest and most fascinating view of earth comes during a total eclipse of the sun.
