Abstract
IN NATURE for March II (p. 440) Dr. Mills, in criticising Prof. Seeliger's collision hypothesis of the blazing forth of Nova, advances a theory of his own as a presumably original and novel explanation of the phenomena of variable stars. It may be of interest, therefore, to point out that practically the same explanation was suggested in 1878 by Prof. R. Meldola in a paper published in the Philosophical Magazine for July of that year.
