The COMET AS SEEN FROM BALLOON.
M. de Fonvielle has described the appearance
of the great comet as seen from a balloon
on the occasion of his recent ascent at mid
night. The brightness Of the comet in
creased as the balloon ascended, this increase
of brilliancy being very marked. The tail
appeared little longer than when seen
from the earth's surface, but most remark.
able was the manner in which it termi-
mated, for it was cut off straight, as If a
line was drawn over it horizontally with q
ruler. The appearance of the tail was as
if produced by myriads of large stones
travelling ID planetary space Independently
of the comet, and having no other connec-
ton with it than that of being temporarily
lighted by the rays which its atmosphere
had caused to deyiate, more or less, from
their natural course. This multitude of
fragments Of worlds would, therefore, pro-
duce the same effect as dust lighted by o
ray of sunlight admitted into dark room
through crevioe. M. de Fonvielle ex-
pounds this theory at some length. He
also insists upon the Importance Of balloon
ing In astronomical investigations.

which ought to call the attention of our
inventors to the fact that they are being
beaten by foreigners in the practical ap-
plication of electricity to modern life.
The telegraph is an old story now; the
telephone has ceased to be wonder and
become necessity but both London and
Paris excel us in electric lights, and the
French system of timing all the clocks by
electricity is notion which ought to have
been invented by the Yankees. Brother
Jonathan has whitfield out SO. many clever
things that he can afford to allow Europe to
get little way ahead OF him in electricity
but it is about time now for Edison to bring
ont an American miracle that shall re-
establish our former supremacy, and startle
the world like lightning from red. white

until he tried Warmers Safe kidney and
Liver Cure that he knew what it was to
be well. As an evidence of the effect
of the remedy, he stated that he had
been up for five nights attending his
sick wife, and, although he was some
what tired, the exertion had not effect
ed him otherwise. Such atest as this,
he thought, conclusively established
the merits of the remedy.
Messrs. Van Setback, Stevenson &
Co., proprietors of the "Old Salamander
drughouse, corner Lake and Dearborn
streets, in connection with their extern
sive wholesale drug business, have de-
voted much attention to the effects
which various remedies have had. Mr..
Peter Van Setback said: II have an
unusual opportunity to judge of the
popularity or unpopularity, merit or
demerit of of different remedies, and
have watched with interest the effects
following the use of Warmers Safe Kid
ney and Liver Cure. Some of the
cases of which have learned are sim
ply wonderful, and it is certainly the
most efficient remedy for Bright's dis
ease that / have ever heard of OF
course any remedy that viii cure
Bright's disease will be absolutely eer-
tain in the thousand of lesser kidney
affections which are so common and
so alarmingly increasing. / have seen
a great deal of its effects, and / can cor
cially recommend the remedy.
The lessons to be drawn from the
above facts are the importance of treat
ing such serious matters as the kidney
and liver disorders in time, and by
that means which have been proven
the best and most efficient wherever
employed.

Keeping the Head Clean.
Golden Rule.

bOIuen RUE.
Keeping the head perfectly clean is
a great aid to health. A distinguished
physician, who has spent much of his
time at quarantine, said that person
whose head was thoroughly washed
every day rarely took contagious dis
eases, but where the hair was allowed
to become dirty and matted it was
hardly possible to escape infection.
Many people find speedy relief for
nervous headache by washing the head
thoroughly in weak soda water. We
have known cases almost wholly cured
in ten minutes by this simple remedy.
A friend finds it the greatest relief in
cases of "rose cold," the cold symp-
toms entirely leaving the eyes and nose
after one thorough washing of the hair
The head should be thoroughly dried
afterward, and avoid drafts of air for a
little while

Lieutenant Cherry,s Murder.

A special from Fort Niobrara, Ne
brask2, details the shooting of Lieu
tenant Cherry. He was pursuing
deserters who had stolen horses and
murdered an Indian. While riding
along with Sergeant Harrington on his
right hand, and privates Thomas Locke
and James Conroy in the rear, shot
was fired from behind them, when the
lieutenant at once turned to left in
his saddle, asking what it meant. Locke,
with his pistol in his hand, and within
few yards pretended that it had gone
off accidentally, and Immediately shot
Cherry through the heart, death being
almost instaneous. Locke then turned
and fired on Conroy, at whom it APP
peared he had fired his first OF Con-
roy was wounded and knocked from
his horse. The motive of Locke is not
known, and the whole affair has look
of mystery which, it is hoped will be
cleared up. The conduct of Spotted
Tail, who remained at the post, and of
the Indians he sent with the troops, has
been admirable.
The news of Lieutenant Cherry's
death is received with profound sorrow,
particularly ny HIS army lIleHuS. ne
was graduate of West Point was not
more than 80 years of age, and had al
ready gained brilliant reputation as
soldier and a frontier fighter. He
commanded the rear guard at the
Thornburgh fight with the Utes at Milk
river, Colorado, in September, 1879,
and it was there he particularly dis
tinguished himself He, with Capt.
Lawson, retreated slowly, fighting every
inch of the way until the troops were
brought at last to the corral, though
with heavy loss, particularly in
Cherry's own company. He and Law
son saved the command from annihila-
ton. Cherry received special COM
mendatisn and was mentioned in orders
for his bravery. He was man of fine
stature, six feet high, well built with
manly face, and in every sense a model
American officer. He was engaged to
be married to young lady belonging
to distinguished Pennsylvania family,
a very amiable and beautiful girl. He
was general favorite in the army and,
his loss will be keenly felt, particularly
in his own regiment, the renowned
'fgh ting fifth cavalry.

Power of Imagination.

The following incident is reproduced
from doctors and Patients"
A man of science in Paris once pre-
vailed on the Minister of Justice to ex-
pertinent on n murderer who had been
condemned TO death The criminal
was of nigh rank, and he was informed
that, in order to save the feelings of
his family, he would not be put to
death upon the scaffold, but bled to
death within the precincts of the
prison; also that his death would he
free from pain. His eyes were band
aged, he was strapped to a table, and
at a preconcerted signal four of his
veins were gently picked with pin.
At each corner Of the table was a small
fountain of water so cOntrived as to flow
gently into basins placed to receive it.
Believing that it was his blood he heard
flowing he gradually became weak; and
the conversation of the doctors in an
UNDERGONE confirmed him in his opin-
ion. "A hat fine bloodp' said one.
..'What pity this man should be con-
demned to die! he would have lived a
long time" "Hush!" said the other;
then approaching the first, he asked
him in low voice, but so as to be heard
by the criminal. How many pounds of
blood are there in the human body ?"
twenty-four; you see already about ten
pounds extracted; that man is now in a
hopeless stater' The physicians then
receded by degrees, and continued to
lower their voices. The stiffness which
reigned in the apartment, broken only
by the dripping fountains, the sound of
which was gradually lessened, so affect
ed the brain of the poor patient that
although man of very strong consti-
tuition. he tainted and died without hav-
ing lost drop of blood.
