Speaking seriously, Prof. Nevcomb,
Of the Naval Observatory. said Of comets,
that nobody could tell Wien the earth
would be visited by another great come
like that gorgeous and terrible heavenly
object that was seen in 1858. The first
great comet with Q known orbit, that as
tronomers predict will be visible to the
inhabitants of the earth, will appear III
1910.
"a large comet is liable to appear at
and time?"
ooh, yes"
"Is it true that the tail Of comet
ever swept the earth2"
1t is supposed:.that the earth passed
through the tail Of the great comet that
appeared in the sixteenth century"
One Of Prof. Newcomb's assistants
here said that the earth meets 80, 900, 900
of comets, more or less, every year. Al
most all of them are ignited by the rapid
passage through our atmosphere, and
become shooting stars. Now and then
one does not ignite, and strikes the
earth These are called meteorio stones,
Of which very large specimen is in the
Smithsonian Institution. The universe
is full Of them.
The assistant added that it was held
by some astronomers that the result
which would follow should comet strike
the earth-a large comet-would be 10
resolve both bodies at once by the con-
cussion into clouds OF incandesosnt mist,
or gaseous matter, q result which would
be 40 sudden and instantaneous that the
inhabitants of the earth would never
know what had happened.
ut is probably o fact" continued
the astronomer, "thst the world is
growing by the accretions Of these min
eral deposits from other worlds. There
is no question but that mineral matter,
sky or comet dust, filters down through
our atmosphere, mixes with the aggre
gate, and increases the body Of the earth.
The weight in year is of course inap
preciable, but the effect in long age,
must be great

Ny father WAS . good man, serving

have heard him hold forth on the provi-
dent ways Of the beaver. "Whyl the
little critter'd starve in the cold season
n Il hadn't used its little fat tail for

would say, "and at the moose. Now,

missing the others, would never COM

WHY, il We can't trust tho little chill

And 20 he lived his quiet life-his heart
beating close to natures heart, and his
soul unconsciously seeking and finding
natures God.
Ny mother must have been beautiful
in her youth. She was lorette Cana
dlenus, and her bright French spirits
carried her gayly over many hard trials
In her life Of frequent deprivation. One
great, overshadowing sorrow Of her life
was the unaccountable disappearance OF
her little year-old daughter, her only
beautiful child-the one in her own im-
aes, whom from the first she loved with
peculiar tenderness.
The child had been left alone in her
