Another Comet.

About two o'clock on the morning
OF the first of May, Professor Lewis
Swift, director OF the Warner OBJ
servatory, at Rochester New York,
turned the telescope to the constella-
ton of Andromeda and discovered
a bright comet, moving in southerly
direction. The new comet is located
in the constellation above named,
right ascension, hours, minutes;
declination, 81 degrees north. This
is the first comet discovered during
tie present year, and places Prot.
Swift in possession OF the S20Q prize
which Mr.. II. II. Warner. the well
known Safe Kidney and Liver Cure
man, offered last January for the dis,
covcry OF comets. lnasmuch as Prot.
Swift received $500 Tor the discovery
OF the comet OF 1880, from the same
gentleman, he is at last finding as
tronomy profitable as well as pleas
ant. 1t is not thought the present
comet is the expected one OF 1872,
although it Is in nearly the location
iron which that comet is expected;
nor is there any reason To believe
it will have any effect upon the earth,
or hasten the predicted coming OF
| the end OF the world.

young man says one time in Indy
there was a young man who had to
travel long journey on foot, and so
he hired snake charmer to protect
him, cos the snakes there is mighty

gone about mile the charmer he
stopped and said: 81 guess it is
about time for me to begin 10 earn
my money" So he took foote out
of his close and began TO play a tune,
and pretty soon some snakes crawled
out of the grass for to see what was
up. And bimeby some more come
and stood around, too, till after a
while there was bout 4 thousand
hundred big pizen snakes all around
'em, and the man was frightened
most to death. Then the charmer
put away his fioole and said; "You
can't find any fault with such charm

if You are ready to go on just gather
a club and wade in, aud if we are so
fortunate as TO get through we will
come pretty soon to jungle where
you can hire a cousin OF mine, which
can charm lions and tigers"

English Good Cheer"

Prentice MuJord, in San Francisco Chronicle.
To offer refreshments Is the most
sacred rite of English hospitality.
This is peculiar to every class, Call
on the rich and they offer wine and
biscuit, no matter how short the stay.
Cali ON the poor, and they send out
tor ale or something stronger; or if
temperance principles prevail, they
bring forth tea and bread and butter.
In England they know how to make
tea. The sloppy detection OF tan
min, out of which the aroma Of the
herb has long since boiled or sim
mered away, which in the American
res,aurapt stands all day in a burn
ished copper, is unknown in the land
OF our tovetatherse-& fhe. poorest
there will have none other than a cup
Of tea freshly drawn In England
starvation and socabiity do not 60
hand III hand There, an evening
gathering, whether impromptu OF
premeditated, never passes without
the offer OF refreshments. 1t is more
convenient for the English family to
do this, tor they have more servants
and better servants than we. Then
division of meals also enables them
the more conveniently to refresh the
caller. Ii the dinner be at 5, tea and
toast are brought in at Z, and no III
convenience ensutS from furnishing
the caller with an extra cup. The
late supper OF meats, hot or cold, is
set at 10 p. NJ. or half past. The
poorer classes hive but to sepd .

You learn the full meaning Of the
term Good Cheer" IN England
They do. NO: believe in talking on
empty stomachs, Or going to bed
with them. My theory ie that we
might rival the kAghsh ruddiness Of
complexion if we ate as much and
ate as often. With US, however, the
opinion prevails that such habits OF
eating, and especially eating late at
night, lead directly to dyspepsia.
Late suppers" with us sound as
badly as ''strong drink" Yet in
England millions OF Stout, sturdy
people eat these late suppers during
their whole lives and die at the usual
good old age. And England, il
must be remembered, is a pretty
strong country.

ounce seed contains atbuminous gum
enough for innumerable bangs. Three
wears or more ago, before the bang
had assumed its sway, an ounce Of
ounce seed could be bought for five
cents, or pound, which would sup
ply the requirements Of a large fam.
lily of girls for yearor more, could
be had TOR forty-five cents. Five
pounds was the ordinary stock which
dealer in drugs kept on hand, and
there was almost nofdemand at all
for the seeds. They are imported
chiefly from Russia, and not over
500 pounds in year were in those
happy days brought TO this country.
AS the present within in hair-dressing
became more popularthe demand for
ounce seed quickly improved, until
at present the stock in the market is
almost exhausted, probably not over
100 pounds being distributed among
the drug dealers of New York. Now
nearly 10000 pounds are imported
in year, and the price is from So. 80
to $500 a pound. a wholesale
dealer said yesterday:
1--WE could sell all we conld get Of
it if it was to be had at all. We
have not over ten pounds in stock
now, and can't get more. The
agents in Europe have secured the
market and got about all the seed
there is TO get. l think"
Bandoline, which contains gum
tragacanLh and glycerine, is much
used because OF its great cheapness,
but ounce seed mucilage is consld-
cred better for bangs

.WOman'S Wisdom.

"She insists that it is more impor-
lance that her family should be kept
in full health, than that she should
have all the fashionable dresses and
STYLES of the times. She therefore
sees to it, that each member of her
family is supplied with enough Hop
Bitters, at the first ap! earance OF any
symptoms of any ill health,to prevent
a fit of sickness with its attendant
expense, care and anxiety. All wo-
men should exercise their wisdom in
this way."--Neao Hdve,a Palladium.

PEGGING AWAY.

There was an old shoemaker, sturdy as sleel,
OF great wealth and repute In his DAY,
Who, if question ed his secret Ofluckto reveal,
Would chirp like a bird on spray
sit isn't so much the vocation you're IN,
Or liking for it,' he would say,
GAS it is that forever, through thick ana
through thin,
You should keep a-pegging away"
have found a maxim of value whose truth
Observation has proven in the main,
And which might well be Wanted IL watch
word by youth,
In the labor of hand and of brain;
For if genius and talent are cast
Into working the strongest display,
You can never be sure of achievement at last,
Unless you keep pegging away.
There are shopmen who might into statesmen
have grown,
Politicians for handiwork made;
Some poets who better in shops had shown,
And mechanics best suited for trade;
But when once in the harness, however IT lit
Buckle down to your work night and day,
Secure in the triumph of hand and OF wit,
If you only keep pegging away.
There are times in all tasks when the fiend
Discomfort
Advises n pause or q change,
And, on field farawpy and irrelevant bent
The purpose is tempted to range
Never heed, but in sound recreation restore
Such traits as are slow to obey;
And then more persistent and Staunch than
before,
Keep pegging and pegging away
Leave 1itful endeavors for such as would cast
Their Spendthrift existence in vain,
For the secret of wealth, in the present and
past,
And of fame and of honor, is plain;
1t lies not in change nor in sentiment nice,
Nor in hayward exploit and display,
But just in the Shoemaker'S honest advice.
TO keep pegging and pegging away.

WHY Women are not MaSOns.

The question is often asked, why
women are not Free Masons. a bald.
headed Nevada orator, living among
the sage bush, far away from all
woman kind, ventures to answer it,
as follows: "Women sometimes
complain that they are not permitted
to enter the lodges and work with
the craft in their labors, and learn all
there is to be learned in this institu-
ton. We will explain the reason.
We learn that before the Almighty
had finished his work he was in doubt
about creating Eve The creation of
the living and creeping things had
been accomplished, and the Almighty
had made Adam, who was the first
Mason, aud created tor him the finest
lodge in the world, and called Para
disc No. l. He called all the beasts
of the field and the fowls OF the air
to pass before Adam, for him to name
them, which was apiece OF work he
had to do alone, that no confusion
might thereafter rise from Eve, who
be knew would make trouble if she
was allowed to participate in ii, if he
created her beforehand. Adam be
ing fatigued with his first task, iell
asleep, and when he awoke found
Eve in the lodge with him. Adam
being Senior Warden, placed Eve as
the pillar of beauty in the south, and
they received their instructions from
the Grand Master in the east, which
when finished, she Immediately called
the craft from labor to refreshment
Instead OF attending to the duties OF
her office'as she ought, she left hel
station, violating her obligations and
let in an expelled Mason, who had nc
business there, and Went around with
him, leaving Adam to look after the
Jewels. This fellow had been ex-
PEELED from the Grand Lodge, with
several others, some time before
Finding that Eve was no longer
trustwo rthy, and that she had caused
Adam to neglect his duty, and had
let one in whom he had expelled, the
Grand Master closed the lodge ard
turned them out, setting faithful
Tyler to guard the door with a fam.
ing sword. Adam repented of his
folly, went to work like good man
and a good Mason, i'll order to get
reinStated again. Not so with Eve
She got angry about it and com.
menced raising Cain. Adam, on ao-
count Of his reformation, was per-
mitted TO establish. lodges and work
in the degrees, and while Eve was
allowed to join him in his works OF
charity outside, she was never again
permitted to assist in the regular
work OF the craft. Hence the reason
why woman cannot become an
inside Mason"

Little JOhnny's Anecdotes.

'POssoms has tobacco pouches on
the stomach, and one time there was
'possom which was show. A fell
Ter came to see the show, and he had
a bunch of fire-crackers, cause 1t was
the Fourth Of July. The teller took
one off and put it in his mouth, and
then LIE Lit one of the Others and held
'em out to the 'possum, and said
"Have a cigarette?" The 'possum
it snatched 'em, and crammed 'em i'll
it's pouch, and wank its eyes, and
said: "Now you can just whistle tor
your old cigarettes, for l am a regu-
lar saving bank, 1 am"
But bimeby they went off wild,
and you never see such busted
bank like that 'possum.
My uncle Ned had possum which
was pet, and he had little music
box, too, but my sisters young man
he plays the fiddle, and Sammy
Doppy he can crow like roosters.
One day the piano was moved out of
the parlor, and uncle Ned he wound
up the rntisic-box 5nd looked the
other way, and the 'possum sneaked
up and put the music box in the
tobacco pouch of its belly, playin'
the Sweet By-and-By" real nice.
Then uncle Ned he went into the
kitchen and called Mary, the house,
maid, and said: MARY, you go into
the parlor and tell your mistress
when she, gets done playin' the piano
l would like to see her."
Bimeby Mary she comes running
back white like sheet, and said ::
"Oh, it you please, sir, that nasty
cat of your'n has ct the pianner."
And now IL tell you little story
about snakes. When Mr.. Pitchell
was missionary preacher in Africa
he seen natiff niger trying for to
catch long snake. Mr.. Pitchell he
said: "What do you mean to take
that fellow in your hands?" The
natif' said he did, if his gods was
willing that he should get tail hold.
Mr.. Pitchell he said: Amt them
kind of snakes pizen?" and the mig
ger said I've ct ten this morning, and
feel pretty well. Mebby they would
pizen ME if l was greedy like hogs.
A other time when Mister Pitchell
was there a natiff Niger which was
the King he said to him: "You
come TO The palace next Sunday and
preach to us poor converted heathens,
and will have mighty good din
ner ready for you when you get
done" So Mister Pitchell he went
and preached, and while he was
preachin' he kept smellin' the dinner
which was being boiled mighty nice,
and every time he smet it he stopped
to get a good Whit OF. 1t. Bimeby
the King he got mad and he saidi
"you jest go on with the preach. 1t
amt nobody but the galoot, Sambo
Caesar. He was always a scotfin'
while he was alive, and now the garn
dasted infidei pushes up the pot lid
for to interrupt our devotions."

when YOU cut hens head off the
preacher comes the next day and
eats her. Hens lay eggs, and roos-
ter hops his wings and crows when
he thinks hlsself better fighter than
a other rooster, but the teller on the

could lay eggs they would all be
