ASTRONOMICAL RENINIscENcE-A CoMEr
PANIc.-In the year 1912, Winston pre-
dicted to the people Of London that the
comet would appear on Wednesday, the
lIth Of October, at FIVE minutes after S,
IN the morning, and that the world would
be destroyed on the Friday following. His
reputation was high, and the comet ap-
peared. A number of persons got into
boats and barges on the Thames, thinking
the water the safest place. South Sea and
India stock fell. A captain of a Dutch
ship threw all his powder into the river,
that the ship might not be endangered
Al noon, after the comet had appeared, it
Is said that more than one hundred clergy
men were ferried over to Lambeth, to re-
quest that proper prayers might be prepar-
cd, there being none in the church service.
People believed that the Day Of Judgment
was at hand, and some acted more as if
some temporary evil was to be expected
There was q prOdigious run upon the bank,
and Sir Gilbert HeathcOte, at that time the
head director, issued orders to all the FIRE
officers in London, requiring them to keep
. good lookout, and have particular eye
upon the Bank Of England.

following, which our lady readers may find
valuable:
% In = visit to Marseillcs, little Incl
dent cano within my observation which
may prove seryiceable to many Of your
large class Of readers. In hotel where 1
was residing, an ink-stand was accidentally
overturned upon beautiful table spread /;
those present thought that the cloth was
ruined. A servant being called in to re-
move the article from the table, all were
surprised when be assured ms that no harm
had been done, and more surprised still, at
witnessing the successful means resorted to
for removing the ink stains. The servant
Prinkled over>the cloth quantity Of pep

face The mixture soon absorbed every
portion Of the ink, and the table-spread
was in as good condition as before the
accident. The spread was Of woolen fabric.

THE BEE TAMER IN ISDIANA.-The Wa
bash IHteligencsr has the following story Of
. bee tanner" in that place: Zone of the
most remarkable sights on the Fourth was
Nj. TWiniug and his queen bee. The day
before be came into our Office with an old
plug hat. He had two holes in it about
midway to the crown-one in front, the
other 10 the back part. Holding the hat
10 his hand, and turning it over so as to
show that it was empty, he said, you see
that this hat is now empty. Tomorrow l
Intend to have a swarm Of bees at work in
Il making honey, and 1 intend to wear it
on my head with the bees in it, Sure
enough, on the Fourth, as we were going
out into the grove, we came across Mr..
Twining. He was located under shady
tree, and was exhibiting to an admiring
crowd Of men and women his wonderful
patent bee hive. On his head was the iden-
teal hat that he had shown US the day be-
fore. twas literally covered all over with
bees, busy at work, going in and out at the
orifces before mentioned. All the spare
space in the hat was filed with new comb,
that had been made within twelve hours.
10 bis hand be held the queen bee, which
be was showing to every one who would
venture near enough to gaze on and admire
the wonderful little insect. During all the
time be was giving an eloquent and instruc,
i've lecture on the habits, worth and care
Of bees"

steps had scarce died upon the stairway
before his wife had removed cases from the
door, drawn the bolt and stood in the en-,

Meanwhile the doctor was rnising the
ladder to the window, and by the time he
had placed it and ascended half its length,
his wife and favorite man servant were
watching him from lower window.
The doctor pushed up the window and
jumped in; the servant jumped out of the
lower window and pulled down the ladder.
In an instant Strahan saw that his bird
had flown, and he rushed back to the win

"Put that ladder back here again, 4" roar

Let it stay where it is" cried the wife
from the lower window.
"Putit up here instantly, or I'll discharge

"Letit alone, and I'll double your wages"
chimed in the lower window.
"DO as tell you, blockhead," /" yelled the
doctor, with rage.
"Come in the house, john" said Mrs. S.,

And John went into the house, leaving
the medical gentleman heaping curses upon
everybody, including his wife and servant

"And never object to my eating turkey
