MARS DYING OF THIRST.
THE E\RTH TO SHARE THE SAME FATE. In a recent lecture on the planets, Professor S. L. Boothrovd, of the Department of Astronomy in the Un'/ersity of Washington, expressed p. f for the fate of tho-o who live in Mars, tho planet nearest the earth. "Mars," he said, "Is evidently an old planet; its water is disappearing rapid'y, and it is dying ol thirst. Tin.' inhabitants of Mars cannot count upon the so-called canals, for they are canals only in name." Professor Boothrovd believes that the earth will one day share the same fate; it will d.e of thirst, as Mars :s dying, because it is unable to retain its nuvsture.
