IN the accompanying diagram a multi-universe is shown, 

 constructed upon a cruciform or octahedral principle. Though 

 this is not the plan of the infra-world or the supra-world, the 

 diagram is useful in showing that an infinite series of similar 

 successive universes may exist without producing a "blazing 

 sky." If the smallest visible crosses represent atoms of the 

 infra-world, the figure enclosed by the circle a represents a 

 star of the infra-world or an atom of our world. A would then 

 correspond to a star of our world, and the whole diagram would 

 represent a " supra-star." The "world-ratio " in this case is 7, 

 instead of 10 22 , as in reality. Successive world-spheres, like 

 a, A, &c., enclose 7 times as much matter as the sphere next 

 below. The matter in each world-sphere is proportional to its 

 radius, and its density is inversely proportional to its surface. 

 This is the condition required for fulfilling the laws of gra- 

 vitation and radiation. In the direction CD the sky will 

 appear quite black, although there is an infinite succession of 

 universes.
