_The sun's rays have been credited with many beneficial powers.
It is a universally conceded fact that the sun is necessary to
good health; not only because of its warmth-giving rays, but also
because of some other element, directly a health-giving factor,
which has since been more or less successfully duplicated in the
laboratory--in the form of Alpine lamps and what not. It is also
said, however, that there are certain properties in the rays of the
sun which might be used as life-giving rays. As far as we know,
nothing definite has been established on this score yet. Who knows
what other helpful possibilities are hidden in the various ether
vibrations produced by the sun? Edmond Hamilton has a brand new
idea, which he elaborates and weaves into a fascinating story of
scientific fiction. Certainly it seems to us to be of absorbing
interest._
