## Summary

_Our new author, who is a student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, shows marvelous ability at combining science with romance, evolving a piece of fiction of real scientific and literary value. A careful perusal of this story should give the reader not only keen enjoyment, but a considerable amount of instruction, because most of our readers will want to confirm their views of cosmic topics, of atoms, of energy--atomic and material--and the other subjects that blend so well in the text of this tale. A great deal of interesting material may be found on these subjects in recent text books._
