THEOSOPHY.
SOME OF ITS AIMS.
In the course of an address on "The Purpose of the Theosophical Society" at the weekly meeting of. the Hongkong Lodge, Mr. H. E. Lanepart said religions have been the greatest cause for strife in the world, and by pointing out their underlying essential unity, by exposing the cruel superstition of a unique revelation and supre-; macy of one religion over the other. Theosophy carries out the Divine Will by revealing to all that profound Divine Messages are contained in all the religions alike, only the outer being differ-j ent, having all been given out to humanity by the Lord of the Re- ligions of the World when
the world and its particular sections were in need of particular mes- sages from Him, to help them in their harmonious growth. Henee.
religious tolerance is binding on ull members of the Society. The) deeper truths revealed by Theoso- phy have given the deathblow to materialism, and it is thanks to the timely aid of the Soceity as the Ambassador of the Great White Lodge that West and East alike are turning from materialism to- wards. idealism and from, the ab- negation towards the practical realisation of world-wide human brotherhood. Theosophy further substitutes science for blind cre dulity, giving to science the great help of bringing within reach other worlds than the physical, and pointing to the possible deve- lopment of new faculties, of new senses, which will enable man to overcome superstition. But far. more precious than that is the science of the Soul, the Science of the Spirit, and the pointing out to all aspirants in East and West that the narrow ancient path to wards accelerated perfection is still open, and may be tread by those who qualify for discipleship and become accepted by the Super- men, the Elder Brothers of Hu- manity, as their pupils in the inner world. Thus Theosophy substitutes mysticismi for dry formalism, gives back to humanity the waters of life training those who aspire to become the pioneers of humanity and members of the coming sub-race and future-root- race of humanity, as they have taken part in previous lives in the founding of past sub-races and root-races and will serve, in our time as pioneers and herald of the. Coming World Teacher, to prepare His way in our mortal world and to make straight His Path.

NEW DECOVERY.
SIXTY PENURIOUS YEARS „FOR SCIENCE.
1
A romantic story of a poor man who, has devoted his life to acienco lies behind the announce. ment made recently by Professor: H. H. Turner, Oxford Observa- try, that 50 miles above the earth the temperature is tropical This is a revolutionary idea, for the great difficulty of eviators, at the greatest boights yet reached by aeroplanes, has been extreme cold.
Data supplied by Mr. William Frederick Denning, a Bristol ac-i countant. enabled Dr. Dobson (lecturer in meteorology, Oxford) and Professor Lindemann to make this interesting discovery.
At heights "too great for obser-] yations to be made with instru-i ments in small balloons, the only method of inquiry has been ob- strvations of meteors.
SIXTY YEARS' STUDY.
For 60 years Mr. Denning has boen working as an amateur astronomer in Bristol, and he has: an international reputation for his work on meteors. Born in 1848, he began at 17 years of age; to study the stars.
In scientific circles his work is well known. He has discover- ed five comets and more than 20 nebulae, has had 110 papers printed by the Royal Astro- nomical Society, and has acted as president of the Liverpool As- tronomical Society. He has boon awarded the bronz > comet-medals by the Astronomical Society of the Pacific in 1890, 1882 and 1894, the Valz prize from the Academy of Sciences, Paris, 1895, and the gold medal of the Royal Astronomical Society in 1888.
Mr. Denning financially rewarded for his many contributions to knowledge until | he received a small pension from the Civil Lis in 1904 Today,

health, he is in straitened circum- stances, and but for private aid it is unlikely that he could have carried on his work.

ASTRONOMER ROYAL'S TRIBUTE.
In making public Mr. Don- ning's latent contribution to as- tronomy, Professor. Turner appooled in the Times to the city in which his work has been done.
Would that the groat city of Bristol, which ought to be proud of him, would brighten his ré-, maining years with some more) material recognition.
A high tribute to the work of this ramurkable arnateur. was paid by Sir Frank Dyson, the Astronomer Royal, at Greenwich Observatory. Tod Duilý Chronicle representative he said: '
He is a most, admirable as- tronomer, and if anything could be done for him I would be very glad to help. A striking char- acteristic of his work is bis absolute accuracy and thorough nuss, He is an astronomer of persoverance and skill.
Both Oxford and the Royal Observatory. officials have acknowledged his lifelong de votion to science, and it is hoped that at his great age the veteran any further anxiety. astronomer will be relieved of
