God Disposes.—Contrary to all hypotheses of science, God works in His own way. The traditional way, as science has arranged it, to build a world, is evolution from nebular mist. One such mass of nebulous mist, sometime in the remote ages, evolved the star in Perseus, which blazed forth so brightly last spring, rivaling the brilliant Sirius in splendor. All at once it died away to a star of the sixth or seventh magnitude, discernible only to the more practical and keener eyes. Now Prof. Perrine of Lick Observatory tells us that the camera has discovered that Nova Persei is now a nebula. It has reverted, and it has not taken a million of ages for it either. There are still many things in heaven and earth that the evolutionist knoweth not.
